The recharging of electric vehicles has been a critical issue. It is necessary for the popularization of electric vehicles to establish a convenient and diversified "slow charging" system to meet the daily electric energy supply needs of a large number of users. Meanwhile, in order to improve the use convenience and still need some technical means with high response speed as supplementary measures, the existing technical route mainly comprises two types of power exchange and quick charging, and the two technical routes are opposite to each other and have advantages and disadvantages respectively in the current situation.
In the prior art, the time for replacing the battery pack by the automatic battery replacement equipment for one time is about 60-90 seconds; the process of loading, unloading, transporting, charging and maintaining the battery pack has been completely automated.
The battery replacement mode has the advantages that: the occupied area is small; the single battery replacement operation time is short; the charging safety of the battery in the station is high;
the disadvantage of the battery replacement mode is: the battery pack standard is difficult to unify; the battery pack adopts a sharing mode to influence user experience, is difficult to accurately measure and charge, and can only adopt flexible charging modes such as 'charging according to mileage' and 'charging in monthly' and the like; a large number of self-contained battery packs are needed in the battery replacement station, and the construction cost is increased; a "pack turnover" in which a charge rate (C-rate) is slow to charge below 1C, thus affecting peak hours, is typically employed; the power station is difficult to be distributed in a large area, and is not beneficial to solving the problem of long-distance travel.
The advantages of the quick charging mode are: the flexibility is good, and the layout can be dispersed to solve the long-distance travel problem; the charging speed is high, and a charging rate of 2C or higher can be adopted; the battery right is definite;

multiple studies show that when a battery is charged, if the temperature of the battery is properly increased, the activity of the battery can be excited, and the charging process can be completed more quickly; however, the problem is how to quickly raise the temperature of the battery by controllable measures and quickly lower the temperature of the battery to a normal level after the charging is completed, and the whole process is not only quick, but also low in energy consumption.
Generally, the cooling capacity and the heating capacity of a vehicle thermal management system of a passenger vehicle are respectively between 2 and 5KW, and if the cooling capacity and the heating capacity are increased, the cost is high, and the volume of the system is also increased, so that the realization is difficult. In the invention, the cold storage device 501 and the heat storage device 502 are adopted in the heat management module 5A, and the high-grade cold/heat can be prepared and the preparation cost can be reduced by a common energy storage technical means which is prepared and stored in advance, so that the output refrigerating capacity and the heating capacity are basically not bottlenecks; for example, the output capacity is increased by increasing the temperature difference, and an ice-water mixture of about 0 ℃ is stored in the cold storage 501 and hot water of more than 80 ℃ is stored in the heat storage 502. At this time, as long as the internal heat exchange module of the battery pack 7 has strong heat exchange capability and heat soaking capability, the thermal management goal of quickly adjusting the battery temperature in the battery pack 7 can be achieved.
First, the charging time period is set to tc, and the treatment time periods of the battery pack 7 before and after charging are 0.1tc, respectively; namely, the time when the battery pack 7 to be charged and the thermal management module 5A are connected is-0.1 tc, and the time when the charged battery pack 7 and the thermal management module 5A are disconnected is 1.1 tc. Since the battery pack 7 generally has 10-20% of the charge capacity (SOC) during charging, it is economical and safe to charge the battery pack to about 80% and not more than 90%, and the maximum charge capacity of a single quick charge is about 70% of the total charge capacity of the battery pack. The following is divided into two cases according to the characteristics of the battery pack 7, and the quick-charge method is analyzed in this example and example 3, respectively.
In the present embodiment, the case where the heat exchange capacity of the internal heat exchange module of the battery pack 7 is relatively weak; the highest charge rate was 2C, and the specific temperature control parameters were as follows:
temperature interval parameters T11=35 ℃ and T12=40 ℃ in the charging preparation phase;
the temperature interval parameter of the charging front section is T21=40 ℃, T22=45 ℃;
the temperature interval parameter T31=35 ℃ and T32=40 ℃ of the post-charging section;
after charging is finished, temperature interval parameters T41=25 ℃, T42=30 ℃;
as shown in fig. 5 (tc =24 min, total time spent 28.8 min), the specific procedure was as follows:
at the first time point, -0.1tc, the battery pack 7 to be charged is connected with the thermal management module 5A, and the battery temperature T =30 ℃ and the battery residual capacity is 10%; at this time, the thermal management module 5A is started to perform a heating operation so that the battery temperature is raised to about 40 ℃;
secondly, at 0tc, the charging system 3 is connected with the battery pack 7, namely, the charging process is started; a 2C charging rate is adopted in a time period from 0tc to 0.5tc, and the battery heats up in the charging process, so that real-time monitoring is carried out in the process, and if the temperature of the battery exceeds 45 ℃, proper cooling operation is carried out; the battery charge at the end of this time period is about 50%;
thirdly, performing a cooling operation for a time period of 0.5tc to 1tc so that the battery temperature gradually decreases from 45 ℃ to 35 ℃, and gradually reducing the charging rate from 2C to 1C according to the temperature change in the process; finally, the charging process is completed, and the battery electric quantity is about 80% when the charging process is finished; then, the charging system 3 is disconnected from the battery pack 7;
fourth, a period of time from 1tc to 1.1tc during which the cooling operation is continued so that the battery temperature falls to around 25 ℃, and then the charged battery pack 7 is disconnected from the thermal management module 5A, eventually enabling the charged battery pack 7 to be loaded into the electric vehicle 1; facilitating safe use of the electric vehicle 1 during subsequent driving.
Because the difference between the initial temperature and the final temperature of the battery is not large, the heat management energy consumption of the whole process is lower through the operation mode of cooling and heating in the system.
It should be noted that: the time lengths of the front charging period and the rear charging period can be the same or different, and can be adjusted according to actual conditions; moreover, it is a practical and safe strategy to adopt a relatively high charging rate in the front period when the SOC of the battery is low and a relatively low charging rate in the rear period when the SOC of the battery is high. The temperature parameters of the respective control stages may be adjusted according to actual conditions, for example, if the ambient temperature is low, the final temperature of the battery may be appropriately increased, and if the ambient temperature is high, the final temperature of the battery may be appropriately decreased for use.
Example 3:
on the basis of embodiment 2, when the internal heat exchange module of the battery pack 7 has higher heat exchange capacity and heat soaking capacity, for example, measures such as a high-performance microchannel water cooling plate are adopted; a maximum charge rate of 3C or higher may be used, with specific temperature control parameters as follows:
temperature interval parameters T11=40 ℃ and T12=50 ℃ in the charging preparation stage;
the temperature interval parameter T21=50 ℃ at the front charging section, and T22=55 ℃;
the temperature interval parameters of the charging back section are T31=35 ℃ and T32=40 ℃;
after charging is finished, temperature interval parameters T41=25 ℃, T42=30 ℃;
as shown in fig. 6 (tc =17 min, total time consumption 20.4 min), the specific procedure was as follows:
at the first time point, -0.1tc, the battery pack 7 to be charged is connected with the thermal management module 5A, and the battery temperature T =30 ℃ and the battery residual capacity is 10%; at this time, the thermal management module 5A is started to perform a heating operation so that the battery temperature is raised to about 50 ℃;
secondly, at 0tc, the charging system 3 is connected with the battery pack 7, namely, the charging process is started; a 3C charging rate is adopted in a time period from 0tc to 0.5tc, and the battery heats up in the charging process, so that real-time monitoring is carried out in the process, and if the temperature of the battery exceeds 55 ℃, a moderate cooling operation is carried out; the battery charge at the end of this period is about 52.5%;
thirdly, performing a cooling operation so that the battery temperature gradually decreases from 55 ℃ to 35 ℃ during a time period of 0.5tc to 1tc, during which the charging rate is gradually reduced from 3C to 1C according to the change in temperature; finally, the charging process is completed, and the battery capacity is about 80.83% at the end; then, the charging system 3 is disconnected from the battery pack 7;
fourth, a period of time from 1tc to 1.1tc during which the cooling operation is continued so that the battery temperature falls to around 25 ℃, and then the charged battery pack 7 is disconnected from the thermal management module 5A, eventually enabling the charged battery pack 7 to be loaded into the electric vehicle 1; facilitating safe use of the electric vehicle 1 during subsequent driving.
With reference to embodiment 1, the total time of replenishing the electric energy to the electric vehicle 1 in the service area of the expressway is about 20 minutes, during which the user can freely move in the service area, and the user's demand can be substantially satisfied. For the service area of the expressway, if the two battery systems 2 of the inlet and the outlet are equipped and the supporting electric facilities are sufficient, theoretically, 40 electric vehicles 1 can be served every hour, and the main addition is the charging system 3 with a small floor area. Compared with the rapid charging stations with the same service capacity, at least 20 high-standard rapid charging parking spaces need to be built, and due to factors in multiple aspects, the existing rapid charging stations for the national power grid highway are only built by configuring 4 direct current charging piles per station. It can be seen that the solution of the invention is very remarkable in terms of construction cost, floor space, service capacity and safety.
Through the technical scheme of the embodiment, even if the vehicle adopts the shared battery mode in the area where the vehicle usually runs, the special battery pack can be at least ensured to be used all the time in the process of crossing the area and going out for a long distance; therefore, a service provider in the battery replacement sharing mode can focus on providing battery sharing service in a certain area instead of covering all areas, so that the operation threshold of the service provider is greatly reduced, and the popularization and application of the battery replacement mode are facilitated.
For convenience of explanation, the control processes in examples 2 and 3 are slightly simplified as compared with the actual processes. In addition, the control strategy described in embodiments 2 and 3 is only one of many control strategies, and those skilled in the art may make various adjustments and changes according to actual situations, for example, a control strategy mainly using cooling in the whole process may also be adopted.
The invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the invention, and such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included in the scope defined by the claims of the present application.
