In step 60, determine various parameters, comprising the temperature of surrounding air, current transmission gear state, battery temp, storage battery air themperature, the state of door, the charge condition (SOC) of storage battery.To determine also in step 60 whether storage battery 16 is in reparation pattern (R-mode).The real process that relates in the storage battery reparation pattern is known for those of ordinary skills, therefore here will not illustrate.With regard to purpose of the present invention, determine whether storage battery 16 is just enough in the reparation pattern; Such as representing this situation by high battery state of charge.
In step 60, also to determine whether to exist in the storage battery 16 any unusual, as voltage deviation, abnormality of current sensor, or battery pack is unusual.Determine though in an independent step, express various in the step 60, should be appreciated that, can carry out these deterministic processes as environmental control system 10 for any order that battery environment control effectively according to allowing environmental control system.And one or more deterministic processes of step 60 expression might take place simultaneously.
After realizing deterministic process, the logic of environmental control system is carried out the first battery environment control policy, in the step 62 this is expressed as " Ventilation Control logic ".According to the result of Ventilation Control logic, battery environment control system logic is carried out the second battery environment control policy then, in the step 64 this is expressed as " gear and air regulation are checked logic ".According to the result of gear and air regulation inspection logic, battery environment control system logic is carried out the 3rd battery environment control policy then, in the step 66 this is expressed as " control logic of door " once more.As shown in Figure 5, the control system logic loops back step 60 then, determines various parameters here, comprising the vehicle operating condition.
Fig. 6,7,8 at length illustrates the step 62 shown in Fig. 5,64,66 respectively.Go through each step below.Fig. 6 represents the Ventilation Control logic just like explanation in the step 62 among Fig. 5.As described below, the first of Ventilation Control logic 62 comprises and determines temperature independently whether battery environment needs to ventilate.According to the type of used storage battery in the car, thisly determine it to be useful.For example, conventional vehicle used lead-acid storage battery usually may send a spot of gas, and this gas may form at the near surface of storage battery.If make this gas condensation, may produce adverse influence to the storage battery surface.Therefore, the ventilation of battery environment is carried out in expectation, and the temperature of this ventilation and storage battery is irrelevant fully, and/or has nothing to do with the temperature of the surrounding air of outside vehicle.
Determine whether battery environment needs to ventilate, may comprise whether the definite storage battery of picture is in the thing of reparation state (R-mode) and so on.Determining that square frame 68 carries out such determine (R-mode=TRUE).As shown in Figure 6, if determine that storage battery is in the reparation state, then make battery environment control system 10 be in fresh air mode, referring to step 70.Under fresh air mode, at least some from the storage battery ambient air with exchange from the air of outside vehicle surrounding environment.In order to promote fresh air mode, first and second 22,24 primary importances that enter them of storage battery control plug-in unit 44 orders, and manipulation fan 28, promote air whereby from surrounding environment, make it pass through admission port 12, pass storage battery 18, and pass from air extractor duct 26.In this way, at least some exchanged at storage battery ambient air and exterior surrounding air originally.
If determine at definite square frame 68: next whether storage battery just determine to exist in storage battery 18 some unusual at definite square frame 72 not at the reparation state.Described picture voltage deviation, the abnormality of current sensor of may comprising unusually, perhaps unusual and so on the thing in the individual unit in the storage battery 18.If find to exist one or more these classes unusual, then make environmental control system 10 be in fresh air mode once more.Can be as required for 44 programmings of storage battery control plug-in unit, so that have only some unusual or some environmental control system 10 that unusually just can make to enter fresh air mode.
If determine not exist some unusual, then determine that at definite square frame 74 whether the charge condition of storage batterys is greater than first charging level of determining (SOC_vent_on) at definite square frame 72.If connect charge condition sign (SOC_mode=1) in step 76, and make environmental control system 10 enter fresh air mode.Yet,, determine that at definite square frame 78 whether the charge condition of storage batterys is less than the second predetermined charging level (SOC_vent_off) if the charge condition of storage battery is not more than the first predetermined charging level.The second predetermined charging level is set at less than the first predetermined charging level, so that between two predetermined charging levels, produce a hysteresis.This helps to guarantee that environmental control system 10 can not change rapidly back and forth between fresh air mode and circulation pattern, also will discuss to this below.
If determine the charge condition of storage batterys and be not less than the second predetermined charging level, determine again at definite square frame 80 whether the charge condition sign is connected then at definite square frame 78.If, then make environmental control system 10 enter fresh air mode, if not, then proceed Ventilation Control logic 62.If less than the second predetermined charging level, disconnect charge condition signs (SOC_mode=0) at definite frame 82 then at the charge condition of determining square frame 78 definite storage batterys.When the charge condition sign is open circuited, be exactly unnecessary with exchange from the air of outside vehicle surrounding environment from storage battery 18 ambient airs.
Proceed Ventilation Control logic 62 at definite square frame 84, determine that here whether battery temp is greater than battery ventilation temperature (T_vent_on).If not, at the ventilation sign (T_vent_mode=0) of step 86 disconnection based on temperature.Yet, if battery temperature is greater than ventilation temperature, at the ventilation sign (T_vent_mode=1) of step 88 connection based on temperature.Next, determine whether connect the same with certain the predetermined time gap at least long time (interval_vent) at definite square frame 90 based on the ventilation sign of temperature.If not, Ventilation Control logic 62 is returned step 60.Yet,, connect time-based ventilation sign (time_vent_mode=1) in step 92 if connected the same with the predetermined time gap at least long time based on the ventilation sign of temperature.In step 94, Ventilation Control logic 62 is regulated or is kept first and second 22,24 position, is in fresh air mode to keep environmental control system 10.Next determining whether square frame 96 definite time-based ventilation signs have connected the same with certain the predetermined time at least long time (time_vent).If not, Ventilation Control logic 62 is returned step 94.If then disconnect time-based ventilation sign in step 98.As shown in Figure 6, when disconnecting, withdraw from Ventilation Control logic 62, advance to gear and air regulation and check logic 64 based on the ventilation sign of temperature or time-based ventilation sign.
Fig. 7 is shown specifically gear and air regulation is checked logic 64.As shown in Figure 7, check logic, determine here whether driving device 52 stops or neutral gear at definite square frame 100 beginning gears and air regulation.Stop or neutral gear if driving device 52 is in, disconnect (Gear_mode=STOP) in step 102 gear mode flags.Next determine at definite square frame 104 whether the gear mode flags has disconnected certain predetermined time (time_delay).If not, gear and air regulation inspection logic 64 are returned step 102.If the gear mode flags has disconnected the same with certain the predetermined time at least long time, then make environmental control system 10 enter circulation pattern in step 106.Stop or during neutral, make environmental control system 10 be in circulation pattern automatically at driving device, help to guarantee that water can not enter vehicle 16 by admission port 12 or air extractor duct 26.For example, when cleaning vehicle 16, the inflow of this water of not expecting may take place.
At circulation pattern, forbid from storage battery ambient air and exchange from the air of outside vehicle surrounding environment.With reference to Fig. 1, make environmental control system 10 be in circulation pattern and comprise: make first and second 22,24 and be in their corresponding second places.This just promotes air from storage battery 18 beginning → by the evaporator core in the plumbing system 20 32 → and turn back to the circulation of storage battery.This situation schematically is shown among Fig. 3.
Return Fig. 7, if determine that at definite square frame 100 drivings device 52 do not stop or not having neutral, promptly driving device 52 is at forward direction gear or reverse gear state, then connects gear mode flags (Gear_mode=MOVE) in step 108.If determine not connect the gear mode flags at definite frame 110 in the predetermined time, this method is got back to step 108.On the contrary, if determine in the predetermined time, to connect the gear mode flags, then determine whether to use storage battery air conditioner system 30 at definite square frame 112.If make environmental control system be in circulation pattern in step 106.If do not use storage battery air conditioner system 30, then withdraw from gear and air regulation and check logic 64, advance to gate control logic 66.
Enter Fig. 8,, determine that here whether battery temperature (T_battery) is greater than certain predetermined temperature (T_fresh_on) in definite square frame 114 beginning gate control logics 66.If, at the sign (T_fresh_mode=1) of step 116 connection based on temperature.From here, determine a heal differential at definite square frame 118.This heal differential is poor between the temperature of storage battery and the vehicle 16 exterior circumferential air themperatures (T_ambient).Then, determine that whether this heal differential is greater than the second predetermined temperature (DT_bat_amb_on).If then connect heal differential sign (DT_fresh_mode=1) in step 120.Then, in step 122, make environmental control system 10 enter fresh air mode.
If determine this heal differential and be not more than the second predetermined temperature, then determine that at definite square frame 124 whether this heal differential is less than the 3rd predetermined temperature (DT_bat_amb_off) then at definite square frame 118.It is unequal being used in the second and the 3rd predetermined temperature of determining in the square frame 118 and 124 separately; A hysteresis like this, just is provided in the operation of environmental control system 10.When the fluctuating not timing of the temperature and/or the vehicle 16 exterior circumferential ambient temperatures of storage battery 18, this helps to keep the environmental control system 10 can upheaval back and forth between fresh air mode and circulation pattern.
If determine these heal differentials less than the 3rd predetermined temperature,, and make environmental control system 10 enter circulation pattern in step 128 then at step 126 break-off signal difference sign (DT_fresh_mode=0) at definite square frame 124.On the contrary, if this heal differential less than the 3rd predetermined temperature, then determines at definite square frame 130 whether the heal differential sign is connected.If make environmental control system 10 enter fresh air mode in step 122; If not, then make environmental control system 10 enter circulation pattern in step 128.
Get back to now and determine square frame 114, if the temperature of storage battery and be not more than the first predetermined temperature, then gate control logic 66 advances to determines square frame 132, and whether the temperature of determining storage battery is less than the 4th predetermined temperature.As the second and the 3rd predetermined temperature, being used in the first and the 4th predetermined temperature of determining in the square frame 114 and 132 separately is unequal each other.So just provide hysteresis for environmental control system 10.
If determine the temperature of storage batterys 18 and be not less than the 4th predetermined temperature, then determining that square frame 134 determines whether to connect the sign based on temperature at definite square frame 132.If gate control logic 66 advances to determines square frame 118; If not, then make environmental control system 10 enter circulation pattern in step 136.Get back to now and determine square frame 132, if the temperature of storage battery 18 less than the 4th predetermined temperature, makes environmental control system 10 enter circulation pattern then at the sign (T_fresh_mode=0) of step 138 disconnection based on temperature, and in step 136.
Fig. 9 represents control logic 139, and this logic can be used for optimizing the use of fan in the battery environment control system, such as the fan 28 at environmental control system 10.After execution in step 58 and 60, determining that square frame 140 begins to carry out Fan Control logic as shown in Figure 9,, determines whether environmental control system 10 is in fresh air mode here.If then connect fan in step 142.If not, next determine whether to use storage battery air conditioner system 30 at definite square frame 144.If then connect fan in step 142.
If determine not use storage battery air conditioner system 30, then next determine that at definite square frame 146 whether the temperature (T_amb) of vehicle 16 exterior circumferential environment is less than certain lower limit (T_amb_lo) at definite square frame 144.If then connect ambient temperature sign (Amb_mode=1) in step 148.From the temperature of determining storage battery 18 here whether greater than predetermined temperature, so that connect fan 28, referring to definite square frame 150.If connect fan temperature sign (T_fan_mode=1) in step 152, and connect fan 28 in step 142.If determine the temperature of storage batterys 18 and be not more than to connect the required temperature (T_fan_on) of fan at definite square frame 150, then the Fan Control logic moves to and determines square frame 154.
