For example, in the case that the battery heating is required, the heating relay Ka is closed, and the three-phase current of the three-phase motor is controlled by the PWM modulation of the three-phase inverter 300 no matter the vehicle is in a parking state or a running state, so that the three-phase motor 400 generates a corresponding torque (in the driving state, the vehicle is driven to run; in the vehicle stationary state, zero torque is output); the PWM modulation of the three-phase inverter 300 generates a common mode voltage at the three-phase motor 400, the common mode voltage acts on the transformer, and an alternating current is generated at the secondary side of the transformer, the alternating current flows through the internal resistance of each sub-battery in the battery pack 100, and the battery is heated by the internal resistance, so that the performance of the battery in a low-temperature environment is improved, and the cruising ability and the dynamic property of the vehicle are improved; therefore, the battery heating circuit can achieve the technical effects of less component heating, feasible vehicle state heating and small influence on the dynamic property of the motor when the battery is heated.
Illustratively, pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is an analog control method, and modulates the bias of the base of a transistor or the gate of a field effect transistor according to the change of a corresponding load to change the conduction time of the transistor or the field effect transistor, so as to change the output of a switching voltage-stabilized power supply. This way the output voltage of the power supply can be kept constant when the operating conditions change, which is a very effective technique for controlling an analog circuit by means of the digital signal of the microprocessor. Are widely used in many fields ranging from measurement, communication to power control and conversion.
In some embodiments, the three-phase inverter 300 may be controlled using SPWM (sinusoidal PWM modulation), SVPWM (space vector PWM modulation), or other modulation methods, such as DPWM (discontinuous PWM modulation); it should be noted that the PWM modulation scheme of the three-phase inverter 300 is only exemplary and not limiting.
Illustratively, the three-phase inverter 300 includes three power switch tube assemblies, one end of which is connected to one end of the first battery half-bridge circuit and the other end of which is connected to the other end of the second battery half-bridge circuit.
Illustratively, the power switch tube assembly includes two power switch tubes, which are connected in series.
Illustratively, the three power switching tube assemblies include 6 power switching tubes Q1-Q6, i.e., 6 semiconductor power switching tubes of the three-phase inverter 300 that drive the three-phase motor 400 to operate.
In some embodiments, the power switch tube of the power switch tube assembly may be a semiconductor power switch device such as a field effect transistor, an insulated gate bipolar transistor, or the like.

Illustratively, the transformer 200 is connected to the three-phase motor 400 through a capacitor Cn, a heating relay Ka. The capacitor Cn functions to isolate dc current to prevent the transformer 200 from magnetic bias saturation, and to resonate with common mode inductance of the three-phase motor 400 and leakage inductance of the transformer 200.
It should be noted that, when the primary side coil of the transformer, the capacitor Cn (i.e. the resonant capacitor) and the heating relay Ka are connected in series, their relative sequence does not affect the circuit, and all the sequenced circuits are equivalent when the primary side coil, the capacitor Cn and the heating relay Ka are connected in series.
In some embodiments, the transformer 200 is connected to the star-connected neutral point of the three-phase motor 400 by a capacitor Cn and a heating relay Ka.
Illustratively, the battery heating circuit further comprises a first relay K1, and the first relay K1 is connected in series with one end of the first battery half-bridge circuit.

Illustratively, the three-phase motor is one of a permanent magnet synchronous motor, a brushless motor, and an asynchronous motor.
Illustratively, the embodiment of the application provides an electric vehicle, and the electric vehicle comprises a battery heating circuit based on a transformer shown in fig. 1 a.
For example, in the battery heating circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application, one end of a "primary side circuit" (i.e., a primary side coil + a capacitor Cn + a heating relay Ka) is connected to a neutral point of the motor, which is one of alternative connection manners; in some embodiments, where the battery heating circuit has a coupling capacitor, one end of the primary circuit may be connected in addition to the midpoint of the battery bridge, as follows.
Referring to fig. 1b, fig. 1b is a schematic circuit diagram of a second transformer-based battery heating circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; as shown in fig. 1b, one end of the primary side circuit is connected to the positive electrode of the dc bus; alternatively, one end of the primary circuit may be connected to the left end or the right end of K1, which is not limited herein.
Referring to fig. 1c, fig. 1c is a schematic circuit diagram of a third transformer-based battery heating circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; as shown in fig. 1c, one end of the primary side circuit is connected to the negative electrode of the dc bus; in principle, the connection can be made at the left end or the right end of K2, and is not limited herein.
Referring to fig. 1d, fig. 1d is a schematic circuit diagram of a fourth transformer-based battery heating circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; as shown in fig. 1d, one end of the primary circuit is connected to an internal battery level point, which may be any level point within the battery, not necessarily an intermediate point.
Referring to fig. 1e, fig. 1e is a schematic circuit diagram of a fifth transformer-based battery heating circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; as shown in fig. 1e, the capacitor Cn becomes a "three-terminal capacitor" (divided into a capacitor Cn1 and a capacitor Cn 2), two ends of the capacitor Cn are connected across positive and negative buses (i.e., the positive and negative buses divide voltage by capacitors), and a central point is connected to a primary side circuit (at this time, the primary side circuit = the heating relay Ka + the primary side coil).
For example, the connection shown in fig. 1e has advantages over the connection shown in fig. 1a to 1 d: after the circuit is powered on (K1 and K2 are closed), the initial voltage of the capacitor Cn1 and the capacitor Cn2 basically has a little difference with the voltage during stable operation, when the circuit starts to heat, transient resonance such as the voltage of the capacitor Cn1 and the capacitor Cn2 and current flowing through a primary side is little in the process from the start of operation to the steady resonance of the circuit, and transient maximum voltage and maximum current on components such as a transformer and the capacitor Cn (= Cn1+ Cn 2) are reduced, so that the specification requirements on the components are reduced, and the cost is reduced.
For example, in the connection manner shown in fig. 1a to 1d, the initial voltage on the capacitor Cn after power-on is generally zero, and during steady-state resonant heating, the voltage is about half of the dc bus voltage, so a transition process may be performed from the initial state to the steady state, during which an instantaneous large value of the voltage across the Cn capacitor and the primary current may exist, and a large specification of the component is required, which may result in an increase in cost.
Referring to fig. 1f, fig. 1f is a schematic circuit diagram of a sixth transformer-based battery heating circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; as shown in fig. 1f, the primary circuit is connected to the midpoint of the dc bus capacitor Cdc, and the dc bus capacitor Cdc is divided into two parts (capacitor Cdc1 and capacitor Cdc 2) and divided into two upper and lower parts with equal capacities; this connection method also has the advantage of a small transient process, but the dc bus capacitor Cdc becomes complex and costly.
Referring to fig. 1g, fig. 1g is a schematic circuit diagram of a seventh transformer-based battery heating circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; as shown in fig. 1g, on the basis of fig. 1f, the capacitor Cn is omitted, and the dc bus capacitor has both resonance and dc blocking functions; this connection mode needs to compromise the normal direct current busbar steady voltage effect of direct current bus electric capacity Cdc again and the resonance blocking effect when heating.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a simplified model schematic diagram of a transformer-based battery heating circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
Illustratively, if the transformer 200 transformation ratio is large enough such that the primary current of the transformer 200 is negligible compared to the secondary current, the circuit of fig. 1a can be simplified to the circuit model shown in fig. 2.
Illustratively, ucom is the common mode voltage of the three-phase motor 400 with respect to the midpoint of the series battery pack 100; ls is a common mode inductor, which comprises the common mode inductor of the three-phase motor 400, the leakage inductor of the transformer 200 and the stray inductor of the cable; lm is the excitation inductance of the transformer 200; r is the entire internal resistance of the battery pack 100.
Illustratively, at the time of vehicle stop, the Ucom is a square wave with a frequency equal to the switching frequency of the three-phase inverter bridge, whether using SPWM modulation or SVPWM modulation. In the case of vehicle operation, the Ucom waveform deviates from a square wave, but the frequency of the dominant component is still the switching frequency of the three-phase inverter bridge. Therefore, to simplify the analysis process, ucom can be assumed to be a sine wave with a frequency equal to the frequency of the three-phase inverter bridge.

Wherein the function η (f) s /f ac M) is the adjustment coefficient of the common mode voltage amplitude under different working conditions, which is the current frequency f of the motor ac And the voltage utilization m of the three-phase inverter 300.
When the vehicle is stopped and the three-phase motor 400 is stationary, under the condition of adopting SVPWM modulation or SPWM modulation, there are:

the effective value is:
Figure BDA0003910091950000113
according to the circuit shown in fig. 2, assuming that Lm is much larger than Ls and can be ignored, the effective value of the current on the internal resistance R can be calculated as:

wherein the transformation ratio n = Np/Ns, f of the transformer 200 r Is the resonant frequency of Ls and Cn, Z r For the resonant impedances, their relationship to Ls, cn is as follows:

on the basis, n is selected according to the required heating power P of the battery, namely:
Figure BDA0003910091950000125
at this time, the following steps are also provided:
Figure BDA0003910091950000126
in this mode, as can be seen from equation 4, the switching frequency f is adjusted s Can be at oneThe heating power is adjusted within a fixed range. When battery heating is not required at all, the heating relay Ka is switched.
The battery heating circuit based on the transformer that this application example provided, the common mode current that flows through the motor during operation is little, therefore possesses following advantage: a) When the battery is heated, the components such as the three-phase motor 400 and the like generate less heat; b) When the battery is heated in a running state, the influence on the dynamic property is small.
Illustratively, since the battery heating circuit operates in a resonance state, and since the internal resistance of the battery with small resistance of the secondary side is converted into a larger resistance of the primary side through the conversion of the transformer 200, the power factor of the circuit is high, the current flowing through the neutral point of the motor is small, and the heat generation of the motor is small. When the motor is heated in a running state, because the current flowing through the middle point is smaller, and the current distributed to the three phases of the motor is only 1/3 of the current of the middle point, only a little current capacity is reserved in the three phases of the motor to heat the battery, and most of the residual capacity can be used for driving the motor, so that the influence on the output capacity of the motor in a running state is small.
In some implementation scenarios, for a certain electric drive system, the battery voltage is 400V, the whole-pack ohmic internal resistance is 20m Ω, the common-mode inductance of the motor is 15uH, the rated switching frequency of the inverter is 10kHz, the rated current of each phase of three phases of the inverter is 300A effective value, the short-time peak current is 530A effective value, and the target battery heating power is 20kW. The transformer transformation ratio is selected to be 9,cn =16.9uf, where the effective value of the neutral current is only 111A, and after being equally distributed to the three phases, each phase has only 37A, which is much smaller than the rated current and the peak current. However, at this time, the secondary side of the transformer can obtain a heating power of 20kW because the battery heating current reaches 1000A.
Illustratively, the resonant frequency f r The switching frequency can be chosen to be much higher than normal, for example 20kHz, and the switching frequency f can be adjusted to provide heating when needed s To near f r . The low temperature when heating is required allows the inverter switching frequency to be increased, thereby increasing the heat generated by the inverter to heat the cold zone fluid.
Alternatively, the connection manner of the transformer 200 and the battery pack 100 may be varied, and the number of the transformer 200 and the battery pack 100 may be plural, which is only an example of a combination of two transformers. For example, the transformer 200 may adopt a primary side connected in parallel or in series, a secondary side connected in parallel and in series, a plurality of secondary sides respectively corresponding to a "battery full bridge", a plurality of battery full bridges connected in series or in parallel, and the like, and the combination may be various.

In some embodiments, high-frequency alternating current is injected into the battery, which can be used for measuring the internal impedance of the battery, so as to know the temperature and the health condition of the battery.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic circuit diagram of a half bridge of a first battery cell provided in an embodiment of the present application.
