Description

Battery energy storage power supply system, and voltage balancing method and device of battery pack
Technical Field
The application relates to the field of power supplies, in particular to a battery energy storage power supply system, and a voltage balancing method and device of a battery pack.
Background
In the correlation technique, on the one hand, electric core brand and firm are more and more, and single electric core brand can not satisfy the product demand, and different brand electric cores are used with each other often, even for same brand, the capacity of electric core, stepping, batch probably are inconsistent again, and this all can lead to the voltage unbalance. To the inconsistent problem of capacity, stepping, batch of electric core, can make capacity, stepping, batch of electric core etc. all unanimous through improving the production management and control, but this will lead to warehouse management cost high, and bring very big limitation for electric core application. On the other hand, in practical application, with the increase of the electric devices, the current battery system of the user may not meet the requirement, and the battery system needs to be additionally expanded, that is, the number of the battery packs connected in series or the number of the battery clusters connected in parallel is increased.
When the battery system is charged, the battery pack with high voltage is charged quickly, and the battery pack with low voltage cannot be charged fully when the charging is stopped in advance; when discharging, the battery pack with low voltage discharges quickly, and discharges in advance to cut off, so that the battery pack with high voltage cannot discharge fully, and the usable energy of the whole energy storage battery system is greatly reduced, even cannot be used.
In the related technology, a switch resistance series branch connected with a battery cell series structure in parallel is added in each battery pack, when the voltage of one battery pack is too high, a switch tube in the switch resistance series branch in the battery pack is conducted, and the battery cell series structure discharges through the conducted switch tube and the conducted resistor, so that the voltage balance between the battery packs is achieved. However, the scheme consumes the electric energy in the form of heat energy, so that the electric energy utilization rate of the battery system is low, and the method is contrary to the social requirement of energy conservation and environmental protection.
In addition, the bidirectional DC/DC converter connected with the battery cell series structure in parallel is added in each battery pack, the charging and discharging working conditions of each battery cell series structure can be independently controlled by controlling the bidirectional DC/DC converter, and the voltage balance among all the battery packs is kept. However, the charge and discharge of the battery pack need to pass through the corresponding bidirectional DC/DC converter, and the rated power of the bidirectional DC/DC converter needs to be greater than or equal to the rated power of the battery pack, which not only results in high cost of the bidirectional DC/DC converter, but also results in high power consumption of the bidirectional DC/DC converter, low efficiency of the whole system, fast temperature rise of the battery pack, and influence on the service life of the whole battery system. In addition, the battery system often fails to detect the position and cause of the fault due to abnormal power supply of the controller, which brings great inconvenience to subsequent fault removal and causes low system reliability.
Aiming at the problems of low electric energy utilization rate and poor reliability when the voltages between the battery packs in the battery energy storage and power supply system are balanced in the related technology, an effective solution is not provided at present.

According to another embodiment of the present application, fig. 5 is a flowchart of a voltage equalization method for a battery pack provided according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 5, the method includes the following steps:
step S501, the battery control unit obtains a voltage signal of each battery pack in the battery pack power supply structure to obtain a plurality of voltage signals.
Specifically, a battery pack management unit (BMU) in each battery pack receives a voltage signal collected by a battery sampling chip (AFE), and a battery control unit obtains the voltage signal of each battery pack by receiving the voltage signal sent by the BMU in each battery pack.
In step S502, the battery control unit determines whether a voltage difference between any two battery packs is greater than or equal to a first preset value.
Specifically, after the battery control unit obtains the voltage signal of each battery pack, the voltage difference between the battery packs may be compared one by one, for example, the battery pack 1 is compared with the battery pack 2, the voltage difference is calculated, the battery pack 1 is compared with the battery pack 3, the voltage difference is calculated, 8230, the battery pack 1 is compared with the battery pack n, the voltage difference is calculated, 8230, and the battery pack n-1 is compared with the battery pack n, and the voltage difference is calculated. And judging whether the voltage difference value between each pair of battery packs is greater than or equal to a first preset value or not.
In step S503, in the case that the voltage difference between any two battery packs is greater than or equal to the first preset value, the battery control unit determines the battery pack to be charged and the battery pack to be discharged from the battery pack power supply structure.
Specifically, when the voltage difference between the battery packs are compared one by one, as long as the voltage difference between the battery packs is greater than or equal to a first preset value, it indicates that the voltages between the battery packs are unbalanced, the remaining battery packs are stopped to be continuously compared, the battery control unit outputs a discharge instruction to the first controller, outputs a charge instruction to the second controller, and outputs a switch control signal to the selection switch unit to control the voltage balance between the battery packs. Before sending corresponding signals, determining which battery packs are to-be-charged battery packs and which battery packs are to-be-discharged battery packs when performing voltage equalization.
Step S504, the battery control unit outputs a switch control signal to the selection switch unit, the selection switch unit is controlled to act through the switch control signal, the battery pack to be charged is communicated with the second isolation DC/DC converter, and the battery pack to be discharged is communicated with the first isolation DC/DC converter.
Specifically, the switch control signal may be a signal indicating that a preset switch tube is turned on or off, the preset switch tube also includes each group of switch tubes corresponding to the battery pack to be charged and the battery pack to be discharged, the battery pack to be discharged is communicated with the first isolated DC/DC converter by controlling the first switch tube and the third switch tube corresponding to the battery pack to be discharged to be closed, and the battery pack to be charged is communicated with the second isolated DC/DC converter by controlling the second switch tube and the fourth switch tube corresponding to the battery pack to be charged to be closed.
It should be noted that, during the discharging period or the charging period of the battery pack, the corresponding switch tube in the selection switch unit is always in the conducting state, so the switch tube of the selection switch unit does not need to be switched at high frequency, which greatly reduces the loss of the switch tube. The switching tube in the selection switch unit may be a MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor). It may be any device that can be controlled to be turned on or off, such as an IGBT (insulated bipolar transistor electronic component). The switch for connecting the positive output terminal of each battery pack in the selection switch unit to the positive voltage terminal of the first isolated DC/DC converter and to the positive voltage terminal of the first terminal of the second isolated DC/DC converter may be a discrete switch tube as shown in fig. 2, or may be an integrated switch unit, as long as it can select between the first isolated DC/DC converter and the second isolated DC/DC converter, and may not electrically connect either. The same applies to the switching tube connecting the negative output terminal of each battery pack with the negative voltage terminal of the first isolated DC/DC converter and with the negative voltage terminal of the first terminal of the second isolated DC/DC converter. The same applies to the switching tube connecting each battery pack to the second isolated DC/DC converter.
Step S505, the battery control unit outputs a discharge instruction to the first controller, and controls the first isolation DC/DC converter to operate through the discharge instruction, so as to control the battery pack to be discharged to transfer energy to the DC bus, where the first isolation DC/DC converter operates in a mode of transferring energy from the first end to the second end.
Specifically, the BCU outputs a discharging instruction to the first controller, the discharging instruction instructs the first isolation DC/DC converter to start working, and the first isolation DC/DC converter transfers the electric energy of the battery pack to be discharged to the direct current bus under the condition that the selection switch unit closes the switch tube corresponding to the battery pack to be discharged.
In step S506, the battery control unit outputs a charging instruction to the second controller, and controls the second isolation DC/DC converter to operate according to the charging instruction, so as to control the battery pack to be charged to receive the energy transmitted by the DC bus, where the second isolation DC/DC converter operates in a mode of transmitting the energy from the second terminal to the first terminal.
Specifically, the BCU outputs a charging instruction to the second controller, the charging instruction instructs the second isolation DC/DC converter to start working, and the second isolation DC/DC converter transfers the electric energy of the direct current bus to the battery pack to be charged under the condition that the selection switch unit closes the switch tube corresponding to the battery pack to be charged.
According to the voltage balancing method for the battery pack, the voltage signal of each battery pack in the battery pack power supply structure is obtained through the battery control unit, and a plurality of voltage signals are obtained; the battery control unit judges whether a voltage difference value between any two battery packs is larger than or equal to a first preset value or not; under the condition that the voltage difference value between any two battery packs is larger than or equal to a first preset value, the battery control unit determines a battery pack to be charged and a battery pack to be discharged from a battery pack power supply structure; the battery control unit outputs a switch control signal to the selection switch unit, controls the selection switch unit to act through the switch control signal, and communicates the battery pack to be charged with the second isolation DC/DC converter and communicates the battery pack to be discharged with the first isolation DC/DC converter; the battery control unit outputs a discharge instruction to the first controller, and controls the first isolation DC/DC converter to work through the discharge instruction so as to control the battery pack to be discharged to transfer energy to the direct current bus, wherein the first isolation DC/DC converter has a working mode of transferring energy from the first end to the second end; the battery control unit outputs a charging instruction to the second controller, and controls the second isolation DC/DC converter to work through the charging instruction so as to control the battery pack to be charged to receive the energy transmitted by the direct current bus, wherein the second isolation DC/DC converter works in a mode of transmitting the energy from the second end to the first end, and the problems of low electric energy utilization rate and poor reliability in the process of balancing the voltage between the battery packs in the battery energy storage and power supply system in the related art are solved. The charging command is sent to the second controller, the discharging command is sent to the first controller, and the switch control signal is sent to the selection switch unit when the voltage is unbalanced, so that the first isolation DC/DC converter is controlled to discharge the battery pack to be discharged, the second isolation DC/DC converter is controlled to charge the battery pack to be charged, and the high electric energy utilization rate and the high reliability are achieved when the voltage among the battery packs is equalized.
Optionally, in the voltage balancing method for a battery pack provided in this embodiment of the present application, the switch unit includes multiple sets of switch tubes, each set of switch tube includes a first switch tube, a second switch tube, a third switch tube, and a fourth switch tube, and the selecting switch unit is controlled by the switch control signal to operate, so as to communicate the battery pack to be charged with the second isolated DC/DC converter, and communicate the battery pack to be discharged with the first isolated DC/DC converter includes: a second switching tube between the positive output end of each battery pack to be charged and the positive voltage end of the first end of the second isolation DC/DC converter, a fourth switching tube between the negative output end of each battery pack to be charged and the negative voltage end of the first end of the second isolation DC/DC converter are closed through a switch control signal, and a first switching tube between the positive output end of each battery pack to be charged and the positive voltage end of the first isolation DC/DC converter, and a third switching tube between the negative output end of each battery pack to be charged and the negative voltage end of the first isolation DC/DC converter are opened; and a first switching tube between the positive output end of each battery pack to be discharged and the positive voltage end of the first isolation DC/DC converter, a third switching tube between the negative output end of each battery pack to be discharged and the negative voltage end of the first isolation DC/DC converter are closed through a switching control signal, and a second switching tube between the positive output end of each battery pack to be discharged and the positive voltage end of the first end of the second isolation DC/DC converter, and a fourth switching tube between the negative output end of each battery pack to be discharged and the negative voltage end of the first end of the second isolation DC/DC converter are opened.
For example, as shown in fig. 2, when the state characterizing signal S1 indicates that the second battery pack 2 is a battery pack to be discharged, the selection switch control signal output by the BCU closes the first switch tube Q21 and the third switch tube Q23 corresponding to the battery pack 2, that is, the selection switch control signal output by the BCU makes the first end of the first isolation DC/DC converter communicate with both ends of the second battery pack 2, and at the same time, the first controller controls the first isolation DC/DC converter to operate through the discharge instruction output by the BCU, so as to discharge the energy of the second battery pack 2 to the DC bus through the selection switch unit and the first isolation DC/DC converter.
Further, if the state characterizing signal S1 indicates that the third battery pack 3 (not shown) to the fifth battery pack 5 (not shown) are battery packs to be charged, the selection switch control signal output by the BCU makes the second switch tube Q32 (not shown) and the fourth switch tube Q54 (not shown) closed, that is, the selection switch control signal output by the BCU makes the first end of the second isolation DC/DC converter communicate with the positive output end of the third battery pack 3 and the negative output end of the fifth battery pack 5, and the charging instruction output by the BCU makes the second controller control the second isolation DC/DC converter to work, so that the third battery pack 3 to the fifth battery pack 5 are charged through the selection switch unit and the second isolation DC/DC converter at the same time. That is, by controlling the on/off of the switch tube in the selection switch unit, the first isolation DC/DC converter can be made to discharge the battery pack string formed by any battery pack or a plurality of battery packs, and the second isolation DC/DC converter can be made to charge the battery pack string formed by any battery pack or a plurality of battery packs.
Optionally, in the voltage balancing method for a battery pack provided in the embodiment of the present application, the determining, by the battery control unit, the battery pack to be charged from the battery pack power supply structure includes: calculating a difference value between the voltage signal of each battery pack and a second preset value to obtain a plurality of difference values, and obtaining a positive number difference value from the plurality of difference values to obtain a plurality of positive number difference values, wherein the second preset value is at least one of the following values: the mean value of the plurality of voltage signals and the median of the plurality of voltage signals; determining a maximum positive difference value from the positive difference values, and judging whether a battery pack corresponding to the maximum positive difference value has a first battery pack string or not, wherein the first battery pack string is composed of a plurality of battery packs adjacent to the battery pack corresponding to the maximum positive difference value, and the difference between a voltage signal of the battery pack in the first battery pack string and a second preset value is a positive number; under the condition that the battery pack corresponding to the maximum positive number difference value has a first battery pack string, determining the battery pack in the first battery pack string and the battery pack corresponding to the maximum positive number difference value as battery packs to be charged; and under the condition that the battery pack corresponding to the maximum positive number difference value does not have the first battery pack string, determining the battery pack corresponding to the maximum positive number difference value as a battery pack to be charged.
Specifically, in order to ensure voltage equalization among the battery packs, the second preset value may be an average value, a median, and the like of voltage signals of all the battery packs, and a difference between the voltage signal of each battery pack and the second preset value is calculated, where the difference may be a positive difference, a negative difference, or a difference of 0, where a difference of 0 means that the battery pack does not need to be discharged or charged, a positive difference indicates that the battery pack needs to be discharged, and a negative difference indicates that the battery pack needs to be charged. Because the battery packs are connected in series, the non-adjacent battery packs cannot be charged or discharged simultaneously. Therefore, the minimum negative number difference value is determined from all the negative number difference values, that is, the battery pack most needing to be charged is found, if the battery pack adjacent to the battery pack most needing to be charged also belongs to the battery pack of which the difference value with the second preset value is the negative number difference value, the adjacent battery pack string can be charged simultaneously, each battery pack in the battery pack string is determined as the battery pack to be charged, and if the battery pack adjacent to the battery pack most needing to be charged all belongs to the battery pack of which the difference value with the second preset value is the positive number difference value, the adjacent battery packs cannot be charged simultaneously, so that only the battery pack most needing to be charged is determined as the battery pack to be charged. The charging mode has the effect that the voltage balance among the battery packs cannot be achieved at one time, and the battery packs to be charged can be determined for multiple times and charged for multiple times until the voltage balance among the battery packs is achieved.
Optionally, in the voltage balancing method for a battery pack provided in the embodiment of the present application, the determining, by the battery control unit, the battery pack to be discharged from the battery pack power supply structure includes: determining a minimum negative difference value from the negative difference values, and judging whether a battery pack corresponding to the minimum negative difference value has a second battery pack string or not, wherein the second battery pack string is composed of a plurality of battery packs adjacent to the battery pack corresponding to the minimum negative difference value, and the difference value between the voltage signal of the battery pack in the second battery pack string and a second preset value is a negative number; under the condition that the battery pack corresponding to the minimum negative number difference value has a second battery pack string, determining the battery pack in the second battery pack string and the battery pack corresponding to the minimum negative number difference value as battery packs to be discharged; and under the condition that the battery pack corresponding to the minimum negative number difference value does not have the second battery pack string, determining the battery pack corresponding to the minimum negative number difference value as the battery pack to be discharged.
Specifically, because the first isolation DC/DC converter and the second isolation DC/DC converter are independent from each other, the battery pack to be discharged may also be discharged while the battery pack to be charged is charged, the maximum positive difference value is determined from all the positive difference values, that is, the battery pack most needing to be discharged is found, if the battery pack adjacent to the battery pack most needing to be discharged also belongs to the battery pack whose difference value from the second preset value is the positive difference value, the adjacent battery pack string may be simultaneously discharged, each battery pack in the battery pack string is determined as the battery pack to be discharged, and if the battery pack adjacent to the battery pack most needing to be discharged all belongs to the battery pack whose difference value from the second preset value is the negative difference value, the adjacent battery packs cannot be simultaneously discharged, so only the battery pack most needing to be discharged is determined as the battery pack to be discharged. The discharging mode has the effect that the voltage balance among the battery packs cannot be achieved at one time, and the battery packs to be discharged can be determined for multiple times to be discharged for multiple times until the voltage balance among the battery packs is achieved.
Optionally, in the voltage balancing method for a battery pack provided in the embodiment of the present application, after the battery control unit determines whether a voltage difference between any two battery packs is greater than or equal to a first preset value, the method further includes: and under the condition that the voltage difference value is smaller than a first preset value, the battery control unit sends a preset discharge instruction to the first controller, wherein the preset discharge instruction is used for controlling the battery pack to discharge to the direct-current bus so as to supply power to the battery control unit, the first controller, the second controller, the battery pack management unit of each battery pack and the battery sampling chip through an auxiliary DC/DC converter connected with the direct-current bus.
Specifically, when all the battery packs are compared and the calculated voltage difference values are all smaller than the first preset value, it is indicated that the voltages between the battery packs are in a balanced state, and at this time, the battery packs do not need to be discharged or charged to ensure the voltage balance between the battery packs. However, since each control unit of the battery energy storage and power supply system needs energy to operate, the battery control unit sends a discharge instruction to the first controller, and the discharge instruction is used to control the battery pack to discharge to the DC bus, so that the auxiliary DC/DC converter converts the voltage in the DC bus into the voltage of the controller, and further supplies power to the battery control unit, the first controller, the second controller, the first isolation DC/DC converter, the second isolation DC/DC converter, the battery pack management unit of each battery pack, and the AFE. The battery pack is controlled to discharge to the direct current bus when the voltage difference value is smaller than the first preset value, power can be supplied to the auxiliary DC/DC converter, accordingly, energy recycling is achieved, and efficiency of the battery energy storage power supply system is improved.
It should be noted that, for the battery energy storage power supply system in the embodiment of the present application, the DC bus is supplied with power by n DC/DC converters connected to the electric core series structure, and as long as any battery pack in the battery pack power supply structure normally works and the DC bus has voltage, the auxiliary DC/DC converter may supply power to the controller in the battery energy storage power supply system, so that the battery energy storage power supply system can normally work.
When the battery energy storage power supply system has faults, the positions and reasons of the faults can be detected through the auxiliary DC/DC converter, great convenience is brought to follow-up fault removal, and the reliability of the whole battery energy storage power supply system is improved. When a battery pack has a fault, the whole battery pack power supply structure cannot supply power to the battery energy storage power supply system, at the moment, the electric energy on the direct current bus is supplied to the AFE of each battery pack through the auxiliary DC/DC converter, and the AFE can judge whether the battery pack has the fault through whether the voltage signal of the battery pack is collected or not, so that the fault position is judged.
It should be noted that, in all existing battery energy storage power supply systems, the power supply of the controller is implemented by converters connected to BAT + and BAT-of the battery pack power supply structure, the voltage of the battery pack power supply structure is usually between 40V and 500V, and the converters need to convert the high voltage of 40V to 500V into 12V, and the input voltage is high, and the voltage range is large, so that an isolation converter, such as a flyback converter, is required. The auxiliary DC/DC converter only needs a non-isolated buck converter, so that the cost and the design difficulty are greatly reduced. In the related art, because the input of the converter is the output end of the battery pack power supply structure, once any one of the battery cell series structures fails, the converter cannot supply power to the controller due to no input, so that the controller cannot detect the position and the reason of the failure, the difficulty in troubleshooting is high, and the system reliability is low. Therefore, the battery energy storage power supply system provided by the application has the advantages of high reliability, small volume and low cost.
It should be noted that the steps illustrated in the flowcharts of the figures may be performed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions and that, although a logical order is illustrated in the flowcharts, in some cases, the steps illustrated or described may be performed in an order different than presented herein.
The embodiment of the present application further provides a voltage balancing device for a battery pack, and it should be noted that the voltage balancing device for a battery pack according to the embodiment of the present application can be used to execute the voltage balancing method for a battery pack provided in the embodiment of the present application.
