Referring to fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a control method for a battery pack 11. The control method comprises the following steps:
s10: acquiring the temperature of the middle part of the battery core 112 of the battery pack 11 as a first temperature TI;
s20: acquiring the temperature of the edge part of the battery cell 112 and taking the temperature as a second temperature T2, wherein the absolute value of the difference between the first temperature TI and the second temperature T2 is a first absolute value T12;
s30: in the case where the first insulation value T12 is greater than the threshold value, the operating state of the temperature adjustment plate 111 of the battery pack 11 is controlled so that the first insulation value T12 is reduced below the threshold value, and the battery cells 112 are disposed on the temperature adjustment plate 111.
In this way, the first temperature TI and the second temperature T2 are obtained, the difference value is calculated, and when the first insulation value T12 is greater than the threshold value, the temperature adjustment plate 111 controls the first insulation value T12 to be reduced to be less than the threshold value, so that the consistency of the battery pack 11 is ensured. The temperature difference caused by the inconsistency of the temperatures of the electric cores 112 of all the parts in the battery pack 11 is avoided, so that the charging and discharging efficiency of the battery pack 11 is reduced, and the service life of the battery pack 11 is shortened.
Referring to fig. 2, the present embodiment provides a control apparatus 20, and the control apparatus 20 includes a first obtaining module 21, a second obtaining module 22, and a control module 23. The first obtaining module 21 is configured to obtain a temperature of a middle portion of the battery cell 112 of the battery pack 11 and use the temperature as a first temperature TI; the second obtaining module 22 is configured to obtain the temperature of the edge of the battery cell 112 and use the temperature as a second temperature T2, where an absolute value of a difference between the first temperature TI and the second temperature T2 is a first absolute value T12; the control module 23 is configured to control an operation state of the temperature adjustment plate 111 of the battery pack 11 so that the absolute value is reduced below a threshold value when the first absolute value T12 is greater than the threshold value, and the battery cell 112 is disposed on the temperature adjustment plate 111.
Referring to fig. 3, the present embodiment provides a battery control system 10, and the battery control system 10 includes a battery pack 11 and a control assembly 12. The battery pack 11 includes a temperature adjustment plate 111 and a battery cell 112, and the battery cell 112 is disposed on the temperature adjustment plate 111. The control assembly 12 is connected to a temperature adjustment plate 111. The control assembly 12 is configured to obtain a temperature of a middle portion of the battery cells 112 of the battery pack 11 as the first temperature TI, obtain a temperature of an edge portion of the battery cells 112 as the second temperature T2, and control an operation state of the temperature adjustment plate 111 of the battery pack 11 so that the first insulation value T12 is reduced below a threshold value in a case where the first insulation value T12 is greater than the threshold value, where the battery cells 112 are disposed on the temperature adjustment plate 111.
Specifically, the battery control system 10 may be used for a vehicle to power the vehicle, and the vehicle may be a hybrid vehicle or an electric vehicle, and is not limited in particular. The battery core 112 may be a lead-acid battery, a nickel-metal hydride battery, a lithium battery, or the like. Preferably, the battery core 112 is mostly made of a lithium battery, because the lithium battery has the advantages of light weight, multiple charging and discharging cycles, strong high-temperature applicability, environmental friendliness, and the like. The battery cell 112 may have a rectangular parallelepiped shape or a cylindrical shape, and the shape of the battery cell 112 is not limited herein.
The temperature adjusting plate 111 may be provided with a flow channel, and a cooling medium is introduced to heat or cool the electric core 112. The temperature adjustment plate 111 may be made of a metal material or a non-metal material having a good thermal conductivity, and the specific material is not limited. For example, the temperature adjustment plate 111 may be formed by pressing an aluminum material. The temperature adjustment plate 111 and the battery cell 112 may be integrally disposed, so that the temperature adjustment plate 111 can better heat or cool the battery cell 112. The heating or cooling of the battery cell 112 can also be completed by independently arranging the temperature adjusting plate 111, in this case, when the temperature adjusting plate 111 or the battery cell 112 is damaged, the replacement is convenient, and the maintenance cost is reduced.
After the electric core 112 works for a period of time, the phenomenon of heating and scalding can occur, and the long-time and high-temperature heating can lead to the reduction of the charging efficiency of the electric core 112, so that the electric core 112 needs to be cooled and radiated by the temperature regulating plate 111. When the external temperature is too low, in order to avoid the influence of the external temperature on the battery cell 112, the battery cell 112 may be heated and insulated by the temperature adjusting plate 111. When the external temperature is too high, the temperature adjusting plate 111 can also be used for cooling and insulating the battery cell 112.
Furthermore, when the battery cell 112 is heated or cooled, the heating or cooling of the edge position and the center position of the battery cell 112 may be uneven, which may cause inconsistency of temperature difference of the battery cell 112. In such a case, when the battery pack 11 is discharged, the voltage of the battery cells 112 in the low-temperature portion reaches the discharge cutoff voltage, and the entire battery pack 11 stops discharging, which may result in a decrease in the discharge amount of the battery pack 11 and a decrease in the available discharge efficiency; when the battery pack 11 is charged, the voltage of the battery cells 112 in the low-temperature portion reaches the charge cut-off voltage, and the entire battery pack 11 stops discharging, which may result in a decrease in the charge amount of the battery pack 11 and an insufficient cruising ability. Therefore, the temperature of the middle part of the battery cell 112 and the temperature of the edge part of the battery cell 112 can be monitored in real time, and the middle part of the battery cell 112 and the edge part of the battery cell 112 are respectively heated or cooled according to the difference value between the two, so that the difference value is controlled within the threshold value to ensure the consistency of the battery pack 11. The heating or cooling can be specifically controlled by the control assembly 12.
More specifically, in step S10, the temperature of the middle portion of the battery cell 112 of the battery pack 11 is obtained to monitor the temperature of the middle portion of the battery cell 112, a first temperature TI sensor may be disposed at the middle portion of the battery cell 112, the first temperature TI sensor is connected to the control component 12, and the control component 12 may receive a feedback signal of the first temperature TI sensor, that is, the first temperature TI, and control the temperature adjustment plate 111. In this way, the temperature of the middle portion of the battery cell 112 can be monitored, so that the temperature adjustment plate 111 can independently heat or cool the middle portion of the battery cell 112. It will be appreciated that the monitoring may be in real time or may be acquired at intervals to conserve power.
In step S20, the temperature of the edge portion of the battery cell 112 of the battery pack 11 is obtained to monitor the temperature of the edge portion of the battery cell 112, a second temperature T2 sensor may be disposed at the edge portion of the battery cell 112, the second temperature T2 sensor is connected to the control module 12, and the control module 12 may receive a feedback signal of the second temperature T2 sensor, that is, the second temperature T2, and control the temperature adjustment plate 111. In this way, the temperature of the edge portion of the battery cell 112 can be monitored, so that the temperature adjusting plate 111 is controlled to independently heat or cool the edge portion of the battery cell 112.
In step S30, after the temperature of the middle portion of the battery cell 112, that is, the first temperature TI, and the temperature of the edge portion of the battery cell 112, that is, the second temperature T2 are obtained in the previous steps, a difference between the first temperature TI and the second temperature T2 is calculated, and an absolute value is taken as a first absolute value T12. When the first absolute value T12 is smaller than the threshold, the temperature difference between the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112 is small, and the influence of the charging and discharging process on the battery pack 11 is small. When the first absolute value T12 is greater than the threshold, which may affect the operating efficiency and the service life of the battery pack 11, the first absolute value T12 needs to be controlled to decrease until the first absolute value T12 is less than the threshold. Specifically, the edge portion and the middle portion of the battery cell 112 may be individually heated or cooled by the temperature adjustment plate 111, respectively, so that the first insulation value T12 is smaller than the threshold value.
As such, the operating state of the temperature adjustment plate 111 may be controlled according to the relative magnitude between the first absolute value T12 and the threshold value such that the first absolute value T12 is maintained within a range less than the threshold value.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, in some embodiments, the temperature adjustment plate 111 has a first flow channel 1111 and a second flow channel 1112, the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are independently disposed, the first flow channel 1111 is disposed corresponding to a middle portion of the battery cell 112, the second flow channel 1112 is disposed corresponding to an edge portion of the battery cell 112, and the operation state of the temperature adjustment plate 111 of the battery pack 11 is controlled to decrease the first insulation value T12 (step S30), including:
s40: in the case where the first absolute value T12 is greater than the threshold, the state of the first medium in the first channel 1111 and/or the state of the second medium in the second channel 1112 are controlled to reduce the first absolute value T12 below the threshold.
In some embodiments, the control module 23 is configured to control the state of the first media in the first channel 1111 and/or the state of the second media in the second channel 1112 to decrease the first absolute value T12 below a threshold if the first absolute value T12 is greater than the threshold.
In certain embodiments, the control assembly 12 is configured to control the state of the first media in the first flow path 1111 and/or the state of the second media in the second flow path 1112 to decrease the first absolute value T12 below a threshold if the first absolute value T12 is greater than the threshold.
Specifically, the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are used for circulating a cooling medium, so that the flowing cooling medium can be heated or cooled more than the battery cells 112. The cooling medium may be a liquid medium or a gas medium, and the present embodiment is not limited thereto. For example, in one example, the cooling medium may be water. It is understood that the first medium in the first channel 1111 and the second medium in the second channel 1112 may be the same medium or different media. Here, the number of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 may be plural.
The temperature adjusting plate 111 is provided with at least two inlets 113 and outlets 114, the number of the outlets 114 and the inlets 113 is at least two, the inlets 113 and the outlets 114 are in one-to-one correspondence to form a group, and the inlets 113 and the outlets 114 are arranged at intervals. At least one set of the inlet 113 and the outlet 114 communicates with the first flow channel 1111, and at least one set of the inlet 113 and the outlet 114 communicates with the second flow channel 1112. The inlet 113 and the outlet 114 are provided to facilitate the injection and outflow of the cooling medium.
The difference in the first medium flow rate or the temperature changes the temperature of the middle portion of the battery cell 112, and similarly, the difference in the second medium flow rate or the temperature also changes the temperature of the edge portion of the battery cell 112.
More specifically, in step S40, the state of the first medium in the first channel 1111 and/or the state of the second medium in the second channel 1112 may be controlled to decrease the first absolute value T12 below the threshold. Thus, the change of the state of the first medium and/or the second medium can be accomplished by controlling the flow rate or the temperature of the first medium and/or the second medium, etc. For example, when the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, the flow rate of the second medium in the second flow channel 1112 is controlled to be zero and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is controlled to be less than the first temperature TI, so that the first medium cools the middle portion of the battery cell 112 to reduce the first temperature TI, thereby reducing the first absolute value T12 below the threshold value. When the first temperature TI is lower than the second temperature T2, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be zero, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is controlled to be higher than the first temperature TI, so that the first medium heats the middle portion of the battery cell 112 to increase the first temperature TI, and the first absolute value T12 is reduced to be lower than the threshold value.
Referring to fig. 3 and 5, in some embodiments, the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are both connected to the flow control valve 13, and the control method further includes:
s41: the flow rate of the first flow passage 1111 and the flow rate of the second flow passage 1112 are controlled by controlling the opening degree of the flow control valve 13.
In some embodiments, the control module 23 is configured to control the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 and the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 by controlling the opening degree of the flow control valve 13.
In some embodiments, the control assembly 12 is used to control the flow of the first flow channel 1111 and the flow of the second flow channel 1112 by controlling the opening of the flow control valve 13.
Specifically, the flow control valve 13 is connected to the control assembly 12 and the temperature adjustment plate 111, and the flow control valve 13 has a plurality of valve ports connected to inlets 113 of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112. The control module 12 can adjust the flow rates of the first medium and the second medium flowing into the first channel 1111 and the second channel 1112 through the flow control valve 13 by the opening degree of the different valve ports of the flow control valve 13. The larger the opening degree of the valve port is, the larger the flow rate of the first medium in the first channel 1111 or the second medium in the second channel 1112 is; the smaller the opening degree of the valve port is, the smaller the flow rate of the first medium in the first flow channel 1111 or the second medium in the second flow channel 1112 is; when the valve port is closed, no media flows through the first channel 1111/the second channel 1112. In this way, the flow rate of the first medium and/or the second medium can be controlled by the opening degree of the valve port of the flow control valve 13.
Referring to FIG. 6, in some embodiments, controlling the media state in the first channel 1111 and/or the media state of the second channel 1112 to decrease the first absolute value T12 below a threshold (step S40) includes:
s42: in the case where the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the first temperature TI, controlling the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 to be smaller than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112;
s43: in the case where the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is less than the second temperature T2, controlling the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 to be greater than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112;
s44: in the case where the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the second temperature T2 and less than the first temperature TI, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 and the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 are controlled to be the same and greater than a preset flow rate.
In certain embodiments, the control module 23 is configured to control the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 to be less than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 in case the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the first temperature TI; also for controlling the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 to be greater than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 in case that the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is less than the second temperature T2; and also for controlling the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 and the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 to be the same and to be greater than a preset flow rate in the case where the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the second temperature T2 and less than the first temperature TI.
In certain embodiments, the control assembly 12 is configured to control the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 to be less than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 in case the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first and second media are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the first temperature TI; also for the case where the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is less than the second temperature T2, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be greater than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112; and also for controlling the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 and the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 to be the same and to be greater than a preset flow rate in the case where the first temperature T1 is greater than the second temperature T2, the current temperatures of the first medium and the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the second temperature T2 and less than the first temperature TI.
Specifically, a third temperature sensor may be mounted on the first flow channel 1111, and the third temperature sensor may be connected to the control assembly 12. The third temperature sensor may acquire the current temperature T3 of the first medium in the first flow channel 1111. A fourth temperature sensor may be mounted on the second flow path 1112 and coupled to the control assembly 12. The fourth temperature sensor may acquire the current temperature T4 of the second medium in the second flow path 1112.
In step S42, when the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is the same as the current temperature T4 of the second medium, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the first temperature TI, the first medium and the second medium heat the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112, respectively. To reduce the first absolute value T12 below the threshold, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be smaller than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112, i.e. the first temperature TI is controlled to increase at a rate smaller than the rate of increase of the second temperature T2. More specifically, the opening degree of the valve port connected to the first flow passage 1111 may be controlled to be smaller than the opening degree of the valve port connected to the second flow passage 1112 by controlling the flow control valve 13.
In this way, when the first temperature TI is higher than the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T3 of the first medium and the current temperature T4 of the second medium are the same, the middle portion and the edge portion of the cell 112 are heated by the first medium and the second medium, respectively, and the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be lower than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to the threshold value or less.
In step S43, when the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, and when the current temperature T3 of the first medium is the same as the current temperature T4 of the second medium, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is less than the second temperature T2, the first medium and the second medium cool the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112, respectively. To reduce the first absolute value T12 below the threshold, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be greater than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112, i.e. the first temperature TI is controlled to decrease at a rate greater than the rate at which the second temperature T2 decreases. More specifically, the opening degree of the valve port connected to the first flow passage 1111 may be controlled to be larger than the opening degree of the valve port connected to the second flow passage 1112 by controlling the flow control valve 13.
In this way, when the first temperature TI is higher than the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T3 of the first medium and the current temperature T4 of the second medium are the same, the middle portion and the edge portion of the cell 112 are cooled by the first medium and the second medium, respectively, and the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be higher than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to the threshold value or less.
In step S44, when the first temperature TI is higher than the second temperature T2, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is the same as the current temperature T4 of the second medium, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is higher than the second temperature T2 and lower than the first temperature TI, the first medium cools the middle portion of the battery cell 112, and the second medium heats the edge portion of the battery cell 112. To reduce the first absolute value T12 below the threshold, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112, i.e. the first temperature TI is controlled to decrease at a rate equal to the rate at which the second temperature T2 increases; controlling the flow rate of the first flow passage 1111 to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow passage 1112 and to be greater than the preset flow rate may increase the rate at which the first temperature TI is decreased and increase the rate at which the second temperature T2 is increased. More specifically, the opening degree of the valve port connected to the first flow passage 1111 may be controlled to be equal to the opening degree of the valve port connected to the second flow passage 1112 by controlling the flow control valve 13.
In this way, when the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is the same as the current temperature T4 of the second medium, the first medium is used to cool the middle portion of the battery cell 112, the second medium is used to heat the edge portion of the battery cell 112, and the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 and greater than the preset flow rate, so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to be less than or equal to the threshold value.
Under the condition that the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is the same as the current temperature T4 of the second medium, the user can select to heat or cool the middle part and the edge part of the battery cell 112 according to actual needs, and then control the opening of the valve port of the flow control valve 13, so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to be below the threshold value, thereby ensuring the consistency of the battery pack 11. For example, when the middle part and the edge part of the battery cell 112 are heated, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 needs to be controlled to be smaller than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112; when the middle part and the edge part of the battery cell 112 are cooled, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 needs to be controlled to be larger than that of the second flow channel 1112; when the middle portion of the electric core 112 is cooled and the edge portion of the electric core 112 is heated, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 needs to be controlled to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 and to be greater than the preset flow rate.
Referring to fig. 7, in some embodiments, the absolute value of the difference between the first temperature TI and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is a second absolute value T13, the absolute value of the difference between the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T4 of the second medium is a third absolute value T24, and the controlling the state of the medium in the first channel 1111 and/or the state of the medium in the second channel 1112 to decrease the first absolute value T12 below the threshold (step S40) includes:
s45: in the case where the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same, the second absolute value T13 is controlled to be smaller than the third absolute value T24 and the current temperature T4 of the second medium is controlled to be greater than the second temperature T2;
s46: in the case where the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2 and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same, the second absolute value T13 is controlled to be greater than the third absolute value T24, the current temperature T3 of the first medium is less than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium is less than the second temperature T2.
In certain embodiments, the control module 23 is configured to control the second absolute value T13 to be less than the third absolute value T24 and the current temperature T4 of the second medium to be greater than the second temperature T2 in the case where the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same; and also for controlling the second absolute value T13 to be greater than the third absolute value T24, the current temperature T3 of the first medium to be less than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium to be less than the second temperature T2 in the case where the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2 and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same.
In certain embodiments, the control assembly 12 is configured to control the second absolute value T13 to be less than the third absolute value T24 and the current temperature T4 of the second medium to be greater than the second temperature T2, in the case where the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same; and also for controlling the second absolute value T13 to be greater than the third absolute value T24, the current temperature T3 of the first medium to be less than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium to be less than the second temperature T2 in the case where the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2 and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same.
Specifically, a water pump, a heating device, and a cooling device may be mounted on the battery control system 10. The water pump is used for pressurizing the first medium and the second medium, and ensuring that the first medium and the second medium can circulate in the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112.
The heating device may be a ceramic heater, a stainless steel electrical heating tube, or a PTC heating plate, and the first medium and/or the second medium are heated by the heating device, and the heated first medium and the heated second medium circulate through the entire temperature adjustment plate 111 under the action of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112, respectively, so as to heat the battery cell 112.
The refrigeration device can be a compressor, an air-cooled cooler or a semiconductor refrigeration sheet, and the like, the refrigeration device cools the first medium and/or the second medium, and the cooled first medium and the cooled second medium circulate in the whole temperature adjustment plate 111 under the action of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 respectively, so as to achieve the purpose of cooling the electric core 112.
In step S45, when the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same, the current temperature T4 of the second medium is controlled to be greater than the second temperature T2, so that the second medium can heat the edge portion of the battery cell 112, the second absolute value T13 is controlled to be less than the third absolute value T24, so that the rate of increase/decrease of the first temperature TI is less than the rate of increase of the second temperature T2, and finally the first absolute value T12 can be decreased to be less than the threshold. More specifically, the second medium may be heated by the heating device, so that the current temperature T4 of the second medium is greater than the second temperature T2, thereby heating the edge portion of the battery cell 112, and the first medium may be heated/cooled by the heating device/cooling device, during which the second absolute value T13 is ensured to be less than the third absolute value T24.
In step S46, when the first temperature TI is greater than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same, the current temperature T3 of the first medium is controlled to be less than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium is controlled to be less than the second temperature T2, the first medium and the second medium may cool the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112, respectively, and the second absolute value T13 is controlled to be greater than the third absolute value T24, so that the rate of decrease of the first temperature TI is greater than the rate of decrease of the second temperature T2, and finally the first absolute value T12 may be decreased below the threshold. More specifically, the first medium and the second medium may be cooled by the refrigeration device, so that the current temperature T3 of the first medium is less than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium is less than the second temperature T2, thereby cooling the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112, and in the process, it is required to ensure that the second absolute value T13 is greater than the third absolute value T24.
Referring to FIG. 8, in some embodiments, controlling the media state in the first channel 1111 and/or the media state of the second channel 1112 to decrease the first absolute value T12 below a threshold (step S40) includes:

In step S52, in the case where the first temperature TI is less than the second temperature T2, the current temperature T3 of the first medium may be acquired by the third temperature sensor, and the current temperature T4 of the second medium may be acquired by the fourth temperature sensor. When the current temperature T3 of the first medium and the current temperature T4 of the second medium are the same, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is less than the first temperature TI, in such a case, the first medium and the second medium cool the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112, respectively. To reduce the first absolute value T12 below the threshold, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be smaller than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112, i.e. the first temperature TI is controlled to decrease at a rate smaller than the rate of decrease of the second temperature T2. More specifically, the opening degree of the valve port connected to the first flow passage 1111 may be controlled to be smaller than the opening degree of the valve port connected to the second flow passage 1112 by controlling the flow control valve 13.
In this way, when the first temperature TI is lower than the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T3 of the first medium and the current temperature T4 of the second medium are the same, the middle portion and the edge portion of the cell 112 are cooled by the first medium and the second medium, respectively, and the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be lower than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to the threshold value or less.
In step S53, when the first temperature TI is less than the second temperature T2, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is the same as the current temperature T4 of the second medium, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the second temperature T2, the first medium and the second medium heat the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112, respectively. To reduce the first absolute value T12 below the threshold, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be greater than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112, i.e. the first temperature TI is controlled to increase at a rate greater than the rate at which the second temperature T2 increases. More specifically, the opening degree of the valve port connected to the first flow passage 1111 may be controlled to be larger than the opening degree of the valve port connected to the second flow passage 1112 by controlling the flow control valve 13.
In this way, when the first temperature TI is lower than the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T3 of the first medium and the current temperature T4 of the second medium are the same, the middle portion and the edge portion of the cell 112 are cooled by the first medium and the second medium, respectively, and the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be higher than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to be equal to or lower than the threshold value.

To reduce the first absolute value T12 below the threshold, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112, i.e. the first temperature TI is controlled to decrease at a rate equal to the rate at which the second temperature T2 increases; controlling the flow rate of the first flow passage 1111 to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow passage 1112 and to be greater than the preset flow rate may increase the rate at which the first temperature TI is increased and increase the rate at which the second temperature T2 is decreased. More specifically, the opening degree of the valve port connected to the first flow passage 1111 may be controlled to be equal to the opening degree of the valve port connected to the second flow passage 1112 by controlling the flow control valve 13.
In this way, when the first temperature TI is less than the second temperature T2 and the current temperature T3 of the first medium is the same as the current temperature T4 of the second medium, the first medium is used to heat the middle portion of the battery cell 112, the second medium is used to cool the edge portion of the battery cell 112, and the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 is controlled to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 and greater than the preset flow rate, so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to be less than or equal to the threshold value.
Under the condition that the first temperature TI is lower than the second temperature T2, and the current temperature T3 of the first medium and the current temperature T4 of the second medium are the same, the user can select to heat or cool the middle part and the edge part of the battery cell 112 according to actual requirements, and then control the opening degree of the valve port of the flow control valve 13, so that the first absolute value T12 is reduced to be below the threshold value, thereby ensuring the consistency of the battery pack 11. For example, when the middle part and the edge part of the battery cell 112 are heated, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 needs to be controlled to be greater than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112; when the middle part and the edge part of the battery cell 112 are cooled, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 needs to be controlled to be smaller than the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112; when the middle portion of the battery cell 112 is heated and the edge portion of the battery cell 112 is cooled, the flow rate of the first flow channel 1111 needs to be controlled to be equal to the flow rate of the second flow channel 1112 and to be greater than the preset flow rate.

In certain embodiments, the control assembly 12 is configured to control the second absolute value T13 to be less than the third absolute value T24 and the current temperature T4 of the second medium to be less than the second temperature T2 in the case where the first temperature TI is less than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same; and is also used for controlling the second absolute value T13 to be greater than the third absolute value T24, the current temperature T3 of the first medium to be greater than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium to be greater than the second temperature T2 in the case where the first temperature TI is less than the second temperature T2 and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same.
In step S55, when the first temperature TI is less than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same, the current temperature T4 of the second medium is controlled to be less than the second temperature T2, the second medium can cool the edge of the battery cell 112, and the second absolute value T13 is controlled to be less than the third absolute value T24, so that the rate of increasing/decreasing the first temperature TI is less than the rate of decreasing the second temperature T2, and finally the first absolute value T12 can be decreased to be less than the threshold. More specifically, the second medium may be cooled by the refrigeration device, so that the current temperature T4 of the second medium is lower than the second temperature T2, thereby cooling the edge portion of the battery cell 112, and the first medium may be heated/cooled by the heating device/refrigeration device, during which the second absolute value T13 is required to be lower than the third absolute value T24.
In step S56, when the first temperature TI is less than the second temperature T2, and the flow rates of the first flow channel 1111 and the second flow channel 1112 are the same, the current temperature T3 of the first medium is controlled to be greater than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium is controlled to be greater than the second temperature T2, the first medium and the second medium may heat the middle portion and the edge portion of the cell 112, respectively, and the second absolute value T13 is controlled to be greater than the third absolute value T24, so that the rate of increase of the first temperature TI is greater than the rate of increase of the second temperature T2, and finally the first absolute value T12 may be decreased to be less than the threshold. More specifically, the first medium and the second medium may be heated by the heating device, so that the current temperature T3 of the first medium is greater than the first temperature TI and the current temperature T4 of the second medium is greater than the second temperature T2, thereby heating the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112, and in the process, it is required to ensure that the second absolute value T13 is greater than the third absolute value T24.
In summary, the temperature of the middle portion of the battery cell 112 can be monitored to obtain the first temperature and the second temperature for difference calculation, and when the first absolute value is greater than the threshold value, the middle portion and the edge portion of the battery cell 112 are respectively heated or cooled, so that automatic control is realized, the first absolute T12 value is reduced to the threshold value, the temperature difference of the battery pack 11 is reduced, the consistency of the battery pack 11 is ensured, the service life of the battery pack 11 is prolonged, and the phenomenon of uneven heating and cooling of the battery cell 112 is avoided.
