Description

Over-temperature protection method and device for air-cooled power supply and power supply
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of power supplies, in particular to an over-temperature protection method and device for an air-cooled power supply and the power supply.
Background
With the development of new capital construction, 5G base stations, IDC data centers, new energy vehicles and the like are increased explosively, and accordingly, the demand for medium-high power supply equipment is increased day by day. The power supply device adopting the fan forced convection mode for heat dissipation is widely applied to the power supply module and the system due to the advantages of low cost, excellent heat dissipation effect and the like.
The power supply needs to suck outside environment air into the power supply, and the IP protection level is low. In the long-term operation process, the air inlet is blocked by dust accumulation or foreign matters, so that the air quantity of the air inlet is reduced, the air pressure is reduced, the heat dissipation effect is greatly weakened, and the temperature of a heating device in the power supply is rapidly increased. And because thermal resistance and heat transfer time lag exist between the heating device and the temperature detection element, the temperature detection element cannot track the actual temperature of the heating device in real time, over-temperature protection is not reported, the heating device is damaged because the temperature of the heating device exceeds the self-tolerance temperature, and the power failure even serious accidents of a system level are caused.
The existing counter measures are mainly to adjust the protection threshold value of the original temperature detection device in the equipment or to add a special sensor for detecting the wind pressure of the air inlet. The former easily causes the power supply equipment to be triggered by mistake under the extreme normal working condition, and even the working condition can not be considered completely; the latter adds significant cost but produces little benefit.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in detail with reference to specific examples. The following examples will assist those skilled in the art in further understanding the invention, but are not intended to limit the invention in any way. It should be noted that variations and modifications can be made by persons skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention. All falling within the scope of the present invention.
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of and not restrictive on the broad application.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of an over-temperature protection method for an air-cooled power supply according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method includes the following steps:
step S100: collecting a first sampling temperature and a second sampling temperature;
specifically, the temperature across the heat sink is collected. In some embodiments, the temperature collected at the air outlet end of the heat sink is taken as a first sampling temperature, and the temperature collected at the air inlet end of the heat sink is taken as a second sampling temperature along the air duct.
It should be noted that, because the air inlet end is closer to the air inlet, the first sampling temperature is higher than the second sampling temperature under the condition that the air-cooled power supply normally works, and the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature show relatively fixed differences under the condition of specific power output power and fan rotating speed.
Step S200: calculating a temperature difference between the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature;
In some embodiments, the temperature difference is the first sampled temperature minus the second sampled temperature.
Step S300: judging whether the temperature difference value is smaller than a preset relative protection threshold value or not;
it should be noted that, the relative protection threshold is set by adding a certain margin according to the difference between the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature of the air-cooled power supply at different output powers, different fan speeds and different ambient temperatures, and is stored in a data table or in a functional form through numerical fitting.
Before the judgment, a relative protection threshold value is obtained in advance. The modes of acquiring the relative protection threshold in advance are divided into the following two modes: firstly, acquiring from a pre-stored data table according to the current output power, the rotating speed and the ambient temperature of the air-cooled power supply; and secondly, calculating according to the current output power, the rotating speed and the environmental temperature of the air-cooled power supply through a pre-stored function.
Specifically, after the relative protection threshold is obtained, whether the temperature difference value is smaller than a preset relative protection threshold is judged, and if yes, step S310 is executed; if not, go to step S320.
Step S310: triggering over-temperature protection and closing the air-cooled power supply;
specifically, over-temperature protection is triggered, which represents that the air-cooled power supply stops working to prevent the air-cooled power supply from being over-heated.
Step S320: respectively judging whether the first sampling temperature is greater than a first protection threshold value and whether the second sampling temperature is greater than a second protection threshold value;
when the temperature difference value is judged to be not smaller than the preset relative protection threshold value, whether the first sampling temperature is larger than the first protection threshold value or whether the second sampling temperature is larger than the second protection threshold value is judged; if yes, go to step S310; if not, go to step S322.
In some embodiments, the first protection threshold and the second protection threshold are obtained by sampling the highest temperature value and adding a certain margin when the air-cooled power supply is applied to all working conditions.
Step S322: no over-temperature protection is triggered;
and when the first sampling temperature is judged to be not more than the first protection threshold value and the second sampling temperature is judged to be not more than the second protection threshold value, the over-temperature protection is not triggered, and the air-cooled power supply normally operates.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of another over-temperature protection method for an air-cooled power supply according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method includes the following steps:
step S100: collecting a first sampling temperature and a second sampling temperature;
specifically, the temperature at both ends of the heat sink is collected. In some embodiments, the temperature collected at the air outlet end of the heat sink is taken as a first sampling temperature, and the temperature collected at the air inlet end of the heat sink is taken as a second sampling temperature along the air duct.
It should be noted that, because the air inlet end is closer to the air inlet, the first sampling temperature is higher than the second sampling temperature under the condition that the air-cooled power supply normally works, and the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature show relatively fixed differences under the condition of specific power output power and fan rotating speed.
Step S200: calculating a temperature difference between the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature;
step S300: judging whether the temperature difference value is smaller than a preset relative protection threshold value or not;
it should be noted that, the relative protection threshold is set by adding a certain margin according to the difference between the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature of the air-cooled power supply at different output powers, different fan speeds and different ambient temperatures, and is stored in a data table or in a functional form through numerical fitting.
Before the judgment, a relative protection threshold value is acquired in advance. The modes of acquiring the relative protection threshold in advance are divided into the following two modes: firstly, acquiring from a pre-stored data table according to the current output power, the rotating speed and the ambient temperature of the air-cooled power supply; and secondly, calculating according to the current output power, the rotating speed and the environmental temperature of the air-cooled power supply through a pre-stored function.
Specifically, after the relative protection threshold is obtained, whether the temperature difference value is smaller than a preset relative protection threshold is judged, and if yes, step S310 is executed; if not, go to step S320.
Step S310: triggering over-temperature protection and closing the air-cooled power supply;
specifically, over-temperature protection is triggered, which manifests as turning off the air-cooled power supply to prevent the air-cooled power supply from being over-heated.
Step S320: respectively judging whether the first sampling temperature is greater than a first warning threshold value and whether the second sampling temperature is greater than a second warning threshold value;
when the temperature difference is judged to be not smaller than the preset relative protection threshold, judging whether the first sampling temperature is larger than a first warning threshold or whether the second sampling temperature is larger than a second warning threshold; if yes, go to step S321; if not, go to step S322.
In some embodiments, the first warning threshold and the second warning threshold are obtained by sampling the highest temperature value and adding a certain margin when the air-cooled power supply is applied to all operating conditions.
Step S322: no over-temperature protection is triggered;
when the first sampling temperature is judged to be not more than the first warning threshold value and the second sampling temperature is judged to be not more than the second warning threshold value, the over-temperature protection is not triggered, and the air-cooled power supply normally operates;
Step S321: respectively judging whether the first sampling temperature is greater than a first protection threshold value and whether the second sampling temperature is greater than a second protection threshold value;
judging whether the first sampling temperature is greater than a first protection threshold or whether the second sampling temperature is greater than a second protection threshold, if so, executing a step S310; if not, executing step S400;
it should be noted that the first protection threshold and the second protection threshold are respectively greater than the first warning threshold and the second warning threshold.
Step S400: controlling the derating operation of the air-cooled power supply;
in some embodiments, controlling derated operation of the air-cooled power supply includes reducing a maximum output power limit of the air-cooled power supply or/and increasing a speed of a fan of the air-cooled power supply;
specifically, when the first sampled temperature is at a first warning threshold and a first holdBetween guard thresholds or between a second warning threshold and said second guard threshold, according to a guard threshold
Figure 849859DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
(including the first protection temperature or the second protection temperature) and a warning threshold
Figure 713909DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
And (including the first warning temperature or the second warning temperature) so that the maximum output power is reduced by N% and the rotating speed of the fan is increased by M revolutions at the unit temperature.
Wherein, M is greater than or equal to 0 (when M =0, it is stated that the rotating speed of the air-cooled power supply fan is not increased), and the maximum output power reduction proportion N% meets the following conditions:
Figure 193487DEST_PATH_IMAGE005
if the warning threshold (here, the first warning temperature is equal to the second warning temperature) is 80 ℃, and the protection threshold (here, the first protection temperature is equal to the second protection temperature) is 100 ℃, N ranges from 0 to 5 (when N =0, the maximum output power limit of the air-cooled power supply is not reduced), N =2.5 and M =100 may be adopted.
The following is an example case in which the above-described over-temperature protection method is applied:
the first condition is as follows: the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature are 85 ℃ and 70 ℃, respectively, and correspond to:
at this time, the second temperature warning threshold is not triggered, and step S322 is executed, wherein the air-cooled power supply normally operates;
if the first temperature warning threshold is triggered but the protection threshold is not triggered, step S400 is executed, and the power limit is set to 87.5% of the maximum output power (i.e. the maximum output power is derated by 12.5%), and the rotation speed is increased by 500 revolutions;
if the two results are more serious, the power limit value is set to 87.5% of the maximum output power (i.e. the maximum output power is decreased by 12.5%), and the rotation speed is increased by 500 revolutions under the normal working condition.
Case two: the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature are respectively 95 ℃ and 85 ℃, and correspond to:
At this time, the first temperature warning threshold is triggered but the protection threshold is not triggered, and step S400 is executed, where the power limit is set to 62.5% of the maximum output power (i.e. 37.5% of the maximum output power derating), and the rotation speed is increased by 1500 rpm;
when the second temperature warning threshold is triggered but the protection threshold is not triggered, step S400 is executed, and the power limit value is set to 87.5% of the maximum output power (i.e. the maximum output power is de-rated by 12.5%), and the rotation speed is increased by 500 rpm;
if the two results are more serious, the power limit value is set to be 62.5% of the maximum output power (namely, the maximum output power is reduced by 37.5%), and the rotating speed is increased by 1500 revolutions under the normal operating condition.
And a third situation: the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature are respectively 100 ℃ and 85 ℃, and correspond to:
at the moment, a first temperature warning threshold is triggered and a protection threshold is triggered, and step S310 is executed to stop the air-cooled power supply;
when the second temperature warning threshold is triggered but the protection threshold is not triggered, step S400 is executed, and the power limit value is set to 87.5% of the maximum output power (i.e. the maximum output power is de-rated by 12.5%), and the rotation speed is increased by 500 rpm;
if the two results are more serious, the air-cooled power supply is stopped.

The control unit 400 is configured to determine whether a difference between the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature is smaller than a preset relative protection threshold; if yes, triggering over-temperature protection and closing the air-cooled power supply; if not, judging whether the first sampling temperature is greater than a first protection threshold value or not and whether the second sampling temperature is greater than a second protection threshold value or not; and when the first sampling temperature is greater than the first protection threshold value or the second sampling temperature is greater than the second protection threshold value, triggering over-temperature protection and closing the air-cooled power supply.
The control unit 400 is further configured to control derating operation of the air-cooled power supply when the first sampling temperature is between a first warning threshold and a first protection threshold, or the second sampling temperature is between a second warning threshold and a second protection threshold; and when the first sampling temperature is not greater than the first warning threshold and the second sampling temperature is not greater than the second warning threshold, the normal work of the air-cooled power supply is kept.
Through the mode, the equipment material cost added by the embodiment of the invention is low, the blockage abnormity of the air inlet can be effectively detected, and other normal working conditions can not be influenced.
Referring to fig. 6 and 6, which are schematic structural views of a temperature detecting unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, a heating device 102, such as a power semiconductor, in an air-cooled power supply is generally mounted on a heat sink 101 in various forms, and the heat sink 101 is parallel to an airflow direction of an air duct formed by a fan, so as to take out heat. In the conventional technology, only one temperature detection device 103 is usually installed on the heat sink 1, and in the present case, one temperature detection device 103 is respectively disposed at the head end and the tail end of the heat sink for detecting the temperature of the position where the temperature detection device is located.
In some embodiments, the temperature detection device 1 is placed at the air outlet end of the heat radiator, that is, at the air outlet end of the heat radiation air duct formed along the airflow direction; the temperature detection device 2 is placed at the air inlet end of the radiator, namely at one end of an air inlet of a heat dissipation air duct formed along the airflow direction.
Because the temperature detection device 1 is closer to the air outlet, in general, a first sampling temperature obtained by sampling by the temperature detection device 1 is higher than a second sampling temperature obtained by sampling by the temperature detection device 2, and relatively fixed difference is presented under the conditions of specific power output power and specific fan rotating speed.
When the air inlet is blocked by foreign matters, the air inlet volume is reduced, the forced convection effect is weakened, the heat free diffusion effect of the heating devices 1-n is relatively enhanced, the temperature rising speed of the temperature detection device 2 is larger than that of the temperature detection device 1, and the difference value between the first sampling temperature and the second sampling temperature is reduced. By utilizing the characteristic, the over-temperature protection caused by abnormal blockage of the air inlet can be triggered when the temperature difference is smaller than a certain value by adding the over-temperature protection caused by over-temperature of the traditional absolute temperature value.
Referring TO fig. 7, fig. 7 is a hardware structure diagram of a temperature detecting unit according TO an embodiment of the invention, which employs an NTC (negative temperature coefficient thermistor) as a sensing element for temperature detection TO detect a TO-247 packaged semiconductor switching device. The air inlet is arranged on the right side of the radiator, and the air flow direction flows from the right side of the radiator to the left side of the radiator.
Fig. 8 is a distribution diagram of isotherms under normal wind pressure using a temperature detection unit provided in the embodiment of fig. 7, and it can be seen from the diagram that the temperature difference interval of the isotherms is 1 ℃. Due to the forced convection heat dissipation effect of air, NTC sampling points on the left and right sides are respectively on isotherms of the 6 th and 19 th levels in the figure, and the temperature difference is about 13 ℃.
Fig. 9 is a distribution diagram of isotherms under small wind pressure using a temperature detection unit provided in the embodiment of fig. 7, and it can be seen from the diagram that the temperature difference interval of the isotherms is 1 ℃. Because the forced convection heat dissipation effect of air is greatly weakened, NTC sampling points on the left side and the right side are respectively on isothermal lines of a 9 th level and a 15 th level in the figure, and the temperature difference is only about 6 ℃.
By setting the relative protection threshold value to be about 10 ℃ under the working condition, the abnormal wind pressure of the air inlet can be timely detected and a protection action can be performed on the premise of not triggering by mistake.
Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a hardware structure diagram of an air-cooled power supply with over-temperature protection according to an embodiment of the present invention, two fan modules 602 are disposed on the right side of the power supply circuit, and airflow in an air duct flows from right to left, and the first temperature detection unit 701 and the second temperature detection unit 702 are both configured as shown in fig. 7, and detect abnormal wind blockage of the two fans and the temperatures of the semiconductor devices on the corresponding radiators respectively.
At this time, the ambient temperature is 5 ℃, the power supply is in a full power operation state, and the two NTC sampling temperatures and the difference Δ T thereof in the first temperature detecting unit 701 and the second temperature detecting unit 702 are shown in fig. 11 and 12. The relative protection threshold set under this condition is 2 ℃, the first warning threshold and the second warning threshold are both 95 ℃, and the first protection threshold and the second protection threshold are both 105 ℃.
In a normal operation state, the sampling temperatures of two temperature detection devices in the first temperature detection unit 701 are respectively 21.1 ℃ and 28.4 ℃, and the temperature difference value is 7.3 ℃; the sampling temperatures of the two temperature detection devices in the first temperature detection unit 701 are respectively 20.2 ℃ and 26.7 ℃, the temperature difference is 6.5 ℃, and the protection is not triggered.
The 128 th s is started to block the air inlet of the power supply fan due to foreign matters, and the temperature of devices in the power supply circuit is increased.
At the 184s point, the sampling temperatures of the two temperature detection devices in the first temperature detection unit 701 are respectively 48.1 ℃ and 50.0 ℃, the temperature difference is 1.9 ℃, the air plugging/over-temperature protection is triggered, and the power supply device is shut down.
At the 184s, the sampling temperatures of the two temperature detection devices in the second temperature detection unit 702 are 55.9 ℃ and 53.4 ℃ respectively, the temperature difference is 2.5 ℃, and no protection is triggered. If the first temperature detecting unit 701 does not trigger protection, the sampling temperatures of the two temperature detecting devices in the second temperature detecting unit 702 continuously rise, and reach 57.3 ℃ and 55.4 ℃ respectively at 186s, and the temperature difference is 1.9 ℃, so that wind blockage/over-temperature protection can be triggered to shut down the power supply device.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only intended to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, but not to limit it; within the idea of the invention, also technical features in the above embodiments or in different embodiments may be combined, steps may be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of the invention as described above, which are not provided in detail for the sake of brevity; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; and the modifications or the substitutions do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions depart from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
