Relates to the device.

  A power supply system is used in which power is supplied to a load device by a chargeable / dischargeable secondary battery, and the secondary battery can be charged even during operation of the load device as necessary. Typically, a hybrid vehicle, an electric vehicle, or the like equipped with an electric motor driven by a secondary battery as one of the driving force sources is equipped with such a power supply system.

  The cooling fan 40 corresponding to the “refrigerant supply device” is connected to the secondary battery 10 via the refrigerant passage 41, and supplies the cooling air 45 that is “refrigerant” to the refrigerant passage 41. Although not shown, the secondary battery 10 is appropriately provided with a refrigerant path so that each cell of the secondary battery 10 can be cooled by the cooling air 45 supplied via the refrigerant passage 41. The ECU 50 controls the operation / stop of the cooling fan 40 and the amount of refrigerant supplied at the time of operation.

A power generation / power supply element (not shown) is provided so as to be included in the load 20 or provided separately from the load 20, and the secondary battery 10 is charged by a charging current from the power generation / power supply element. It shall be possible. Therefore, the battery current Ib> 0 when the secondary battery 10 is discharged, and the battery current Ib <0 when the secondary battery 10 is charged.

  The ECU 50 distributes the predicted value of the internal state according to a battery model that can dynamically estimate the internal state of the secondary battery based on the detection values from the sensor groups 30, 32, and 34 provided in the secondary battery 10. The battery model part 60 which calculates | requires is comprised. Further, the ECU 50 calculates the output possible power (discharge power upper limit value) Wout and the input possible power (charge power upper limit value) Win from the secondary battery 10 based on the distribution of the predicted internal state value. The ECU 50 sets Wout = 0 when discharging is prohibited, and sets Wout> 0 when discharging is possible. Similarly, the ECU 50 sets Win = 0 when charging is prohibited, and sets Win> 0 when charging is possible.

The ECU 50 is typically composed of a microcomputer and a memory (RAM, ROM, etc.) for executing a predetermined sequence programmed in advance and a predetermined calculation.

FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram showing a schematic configuration of the secondary battery 10.
Referring to FIG. 2, secondary battery 10 includes a negative electrode 12, a separator 14, and a positive electrode 15. The separator 14 is configured by impregnating an electrolytic solution into a resin provided between the negative electrode 12 and the positive electrode 15.

Each of the negative electrode 12 and the positive electrode 15 is composed of an aggregate of spherical active materials 18. On the interface of the active material 18 of the negative electrode 12, a chemical reaction that releases lithium ions Li ⁺ and electrons e ⁻ is performed. On the other hand, a chemical reaction that absorbs lithium ions Li ⁺ and electrons e ⁻ is performed on the interface of the active material 18 of the positive electrode 15.

The negative electrode 12 is provided with a current collector 13 that absorbs electrons e ⁻ , and the positive electrode 15 is provided with a current collector 16 that emits electrons e ⁻ .

Battery cell 10 # is charged and discharged by the exchange of lithium ions Li ⁺ through separator 14, and charging current Ib (> 0) or discharging current Ib (<0) is generated.

  Therefore, the charge / discharge state inside the secondary battery varies depending on the concentration distribution of lithium ions in the electrodes (positive electrode and negative electrode).

(Explanation of battery internal state model formula)
In the secondary battery charge / discharge device according to the embodiment of the present invention, the internal state distribution of the battery is estimated using battery model equations (M1) to (M15) described below. Below, the battery model type | formula used with the battery model part 60 of ECU50 is demonstrated. FIG. 3 shows a list of variables and constants used in the following battery model formulas (M1) to (M15).

Formulas (M1) to (M3) are formulas indicating electrode reactions, called Butler-Volmer formulas. In the formula (M1), the exchange current density i ₀ is given as a function of the lithium ion concentration at the interface of the active material 18 (see Non-Patent Document 1 for details). The formula (M2) shows details of η in the formula (M1), and the formula (M3) shows details of U in the formula (M2).

Expressions (M4) to (M6) show the law of conservation of lithium ions in the electrolysis solution. In the formula (M5) defining the effective diffusion coefficient in the electrolytic solution in is shown in formula (M6), reaction current j ^Li is shown in the active material surface area a _s and formula per unit electrode volume (M1) It is shown that it is given by the product of the transport current density / _inj . The volume integral of the reaction current j ^{Li over} the entire electrode corresponds to the battery current Ib.

Equations (M7) and (M8) show the law of conservation of lithium ions in the solid phase. Showed diffusion equation in an active material 18 is a sphere in Formula (M7), the formula (M8), the active material surface area a _s per unit electrode volume is shown.

  From equations (M9) to (M11), an equation indicating the potential in the electrolysis solution is derived from the charge conservation law in the electrolysis solution.

Equation (M10) shows the effective ionic conductivity κ ^eff , and equation (M11) shows the diffusion conductivity coefficient κ _D ^{eff in the} electrolysis solution.

  In formulas (M12) and (M13), formulas for obtaining the potential in the solid phase are shown from the law of conservation of charge in the active material.

  In equations (M14) and (M15), the thermal energy conservation law is expressed. Thereby, it becomes possible to analyze the local temperature change inside the secondary battery due to the charge / discharge phenomenon.

  Since these battery model formulas (M1) to (M15) are based on Non-Patent Document 1, Non-Patent Document 1 is used for detailed description of each model formula.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the battery model formulas of the formulas (M1) to (M15) are expressed by an interelectrode distance x (for example, x = 0 at the negative electrode end, x = L at the positive electrode end) and the electrode longitudinal coordinate y (y = 0 to y = H), the temporal transition of the positional distribution can be predicted for the internal state of the secondary battery 10 by sequentially solving a differential equation with boundary conditions set appropriately at each point of the positional distribution according to 0 to y = H). The lithium ion concentration in the active material 18 is a function of the active material radius r, and the lithium ion concentration is treated as uniform in the circumferential direction.

(Charge / discharge control according to battery internal condition)
FIG. 4 is a block diagram for explaining functional parts related to charge / discharge control in the ECU 50 shown in FIG. 1.

  Referring to FIG. 4, ECU 50 includes a battery model unit 60, an overall SOC calculation unit 62, and an input / output power limiting unit 70.

The battery model unit 60 corresponding to the “battery state predicting means” follows the battery model expressions shown in the expressions (M1) to (M15), the battery temperature Tb, the battery current Ib, and the battery voltage from the sensor groups 30, 32, and 34. Using Vb as an input, the internal state predicted values at each point in the battery are sequentially calculated. As shown in the equations (M1) to (M15), predicted internal states include lithium ion concentrations c _s (in the electrolyte) and c _e (in the active material) averaged by volume, potential distribution φ _e (in the electrolyte) and φ _s (in the active material), absolute temperature T, and lithium ion generation amount j ^Li are included. Here, the local lithium ion concentration c _e and the lithium ion concentration C _se at the interface of the active material 18 are obtained, and the ratio between the lithium ion concentration C _{s, max} charged in the entire electrode, that is, C _se / C. _{By obtaining s, max} , the local charge rate (SOC) at the interface of the active material 18 can be obtained.

  Overall SOC calculation unit 62 calculates a macro charge rate (hereinafter referred to as overall SOC) of secondary battery 10 as a whole based on the integrated value of battery current Ib. In calculating the total SOC, the detected values of the battery temperature Tb and the battery voltage Vb may be appropriately reflected.

  The input / output power limiting unit 70 sets the inputtable power Win and the outputable power Wout of the secondary battery 10 according to the predicted internal state value calculated by the battery model unit 60. That is, the input / output power limiting unit 70 corresponds to the “charge / discharge limiting unit” in the present invention.

(Charge / discharge control according to the internal distribution of lithium ion concentration)
5-7 is a figure explaining the charging / discharging restriction | limiting which paid its attention to the internal distribution of lithium ion concentration as an internal state of a secondary battery.

  In FIG. 5, the horizontal axis indicates the positional spread (x direction, y direction) within the battery model coordinates shown in FIG. The vertical axis represents the lithium ion concentration in the active material 18. That is, FIG. 5 shows distribution prediction based on the battery model for the lithium ion concentration inside the secondary battery 10 at a certain time. This distribution prediction is sequentially updated over time with charge / discharge. Regarding the local lithium ion concentration, an upper limit management value Mmax and a lower limit management value Mmin are determined in advance.

  The input / output power limiting unit 70 has an upper limit margin value Mnu that is a difference between the maximum value and the upper limit management value Mmax and a difference between the minimum value and the lower limit management value Mmin for the lithium ion concentration in the active material within the range of the negative electrode 12. The lower limit margin value Mnl is obtained. Similarly, the input / output power limiting unit 70 also determines the upper limit margin value Mpu and the lower limit margin value Mpl of the lithium ion concentration in the active material for the region of the positive electrode 15.

  Referring to FIG. 6, input / output power limiting unit 70 has a local lower limit margin Mlmin (that is, the minimum values of Mnl and Mpl in FIG. 5) with respect to the lower limit control value Mmin of the lithium ion concentration in the active material inside the battery. Is set to the output possible power Wout.

  When the local lower limit margin Mlmin is equal to or less than the determination value 11, Wout = 0 is set to prevent discharge from the secondary battery 10 in order to prevent deterioration due to local overdischarge.

  On the other hand, when the local lower limit margin Mlmin is ensured to be equal to or greater than the determination value l2, the discharge limitation from the local distribution of the lithium ion concentration is not performed, and the output possible power Wout is set as usual. For example, the output possible power Wout in the normal time is set by a general method based on the total SOC calculated by the total SOC calculation unit 62 and macroscopically evaluating the state of the entire secondary battery 10.

  When the local lower limit margin Mlmin is between the determination values l1 and l2, the discharge is limited more than usual. That is, the output possible power Wout is set smaller than the case where the local lower limit margin Mlmin is ensured to be equal to or greater than the determination value l2. In this case, outputable power Wout is preferably set continuously or stepwise according to local lower limit margin Mlmin.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 7, the input / output power limiting unit 70 also sets the inputtable power Win according to the local distribution of the lithium ion concentration.

  Referring to FIG. 7, input / output power limiting unit 70 determines the local upper limit margin Mlmax (that is, the maximum values of Mnu and Mpu in FIG. 5) with respect to the upper limit control value Mmax of the lithium ion concentration in the active material inside the battery. Is set to the input possible power Win.

  When the local upper limit margin Mlmax is equal to or less than the determination value l3, Win = 0 is set and charging to the secondary battery 10 is prohibited to prevent deterioration due to local overcharging. On the other hand, when the local upper limit margin Mlmax is ensured to be equal to or greater than the determination value 14, charging is not restricted from the local distribution of the lithium ion concentration, and the input allowable power Win is set as usual. For example, the input possible power Win at the normal time is set based on the total SOC calculated by the total SOC calculation unit 62, similarly to the output possible power Wout.

  Further, when the local upper limit margin Mlmax is between the determination values l3 to l4, charging is restricted more than usual, and the input allowable power Win is secured with the local upper limit margin Mlmax equal to or greater than the determination value l4. It is set smaller than the case. In this case, it is preferable that the input allowable power Win is set continuously or stepwise in accordance with the local upper limit margin Mlmax.

  As described above, based on the battery model formula reflecting the electrode reaction inside the battery, when the increase or decrease of the lithium ion concentration is locally regarded as dangerous, the inputable power Win or the outputable power Wout can be limited. . As a result, due to the difference in the utilization of the electrode active material inside the secondary battery, the lithium ion concentration locally increases (overcharge) or decreases (overdischarge) beyond the limit, Can be prevented from occurring.

  It should be noted that the input / output possible powers Win and Wout may be set strictly based on the internal distribution of the lithium ion concentration even during normal times when no local increase or decrease in the lithium ion concentration has occurred. By adopting a method that is set based on abundant general SOC, it is possible to simplify the arithmetic processing related to input / output power Win and Wout while ensuring a certain degree of control stability.

(Charge / discharge control according to internal temperature distribution)
FIG. 8 shows prediction of temperature distribution inside the secondary battery 10 at a certain point in time according to the battery model, as in FIG. The upper limit management value Tj is also determined in advance for the local internal temperature.

  Referring to FIG. 8, input / output power limiting unit 70 obtains local maximum temperature Tnmax in negative electrode 12 and local maximum temperature Tpmax in positive electrode 15.

  Referring to FIG. 9, input / output power limiting unit 70 determines input / output possible power Win, based on local maximum temperature Tmax in the battery (that is, equivalent to the maximum values of Tnmax and Tpmax in FIG. 8). Set Wout.

  When local maximum temperature Tmax is equal to or lower than determination value T1, input / output power limiting unit 70 does not limit charging / discharging from the temperature distribution, and, for example, as described with reference to FIGS. Normal input / output possible power setting based on

  On the other hand, when the local maximum temperature Tmax is equal to or higher than the upper limit management value Tj, charging / discharging is prohibited in order to prevent local deterioration or thermal runaway of the battery, and Win = Wout = 0 is set.

  Further, when the local maximum temperature Tmax is between the determination values T1 to Tj, charging / discharging is limited as compared with the normal time, and the input / output powers Win and Wout have the local maximum temperature Tmax equal to or lower than the determination value T1. More limited than in some cases. In this case, the input / output powers Win and Wout are preferably set continuously or stepwise according to the local maximum temperature Tmax.

  Thus, based on the battery model formula reflecting the electrode reaction inside the battery, when local temperature rise is regarded as dangerous, the inputtable power Win and the outputable power Wout can be limited. As a result, it is possible to prevent local deterioration and thermal runaway from occurring due to a local rise in temperature due to a difference in the utilization of the electrode active material inside the secondary battery.

  In the range of Tmax> T1 in which charging / discharging is restricted or prohibited, the cooling fan 40 in a stopped state is operated by the control command from the ECU 50 to the cooling fan 40 as shown in FIG. The amount of refrigerant supplied (cooling air amount) by the cooling fan 40 may be increased. In particular, it is preferable that the amount of cooling air during the operation of the cooling fan 40 is set to increase continuously or stepwise as the local maximum temperature Tmax increases.

(Charge / discharge control according to the voltage between terminals)
Further, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the input / output power limiting unit 70 sets the input / output possible powers Win and Wout based on the potential distributions φ _e and φ _s as the internal state predicted by the battery model unit 60. Set.

  Referring to FIG. 10, input / output power limiting unit 70 includes an inter-terminal voltage calculation unit 71 and an input / output available power setting unit 72.

The inter-terminal voltage calculation unit 71 calculates the predicted inter-terminal voltage Vb # (or predicted electromotive force OCP) based on the local potential distributions φ _e and φ _s inside the secondary battery predicted by the battery model unit 60. To do. The input / output possible power setting unit 72 calculates the input / output possible powers Win and Wout based on the predicted inter-terminal voltage Vb # (or predicted electromotive force OCP) calculated by the inter-terminal voltage calculation unit 71.

  Referring to FIG. 11, input / output available power setting unit 72 sets the input / output available power according to the comparison between predicted terminal voltage Vb # and determination values V1 to V4.

  When the predicted inter-terminal voltage is too low (in the range of Vb # <V1), the input / output possible power setting unit 72 sets the output possible power Wout = 0 in order to prohibit further discharge. On the other hand, input / output power limiting unit 70 does not limit the discharge due to the decrease in the inter-terminal voltage when the predicted inter-terminal voltage has not decreased so much (in the range of Vb #> V2). In the same manner as described above, for example, normal output possible power setting based on the entire SOC is performed. Further, in the range of V1 <Vb # <V2, discharge is limitedly permitted (Wout> 0), but the outputtable power Wout is limited to be lower than that in the normal state (range of Vb #> V2).

  Similarly, when the predicted inter-terminal voltage rises excessively (Vb #> V4), the input / output possible power setting unit 72 sets the input possible power Win = 0 to prohibit further charging. On the other hand, when the predicted inter-terminal voltage has not increased so much (in the range of Vb # <V3), the discharge limitation from the increase of the inter-terminal voltage is not performed, and a normal input based on, for example, the entire SOC is performed as described above. Set possible power. In the range of V3 <Vb # <V4, although charging is permitted in a limited manner (Win> 0), the input allowable power Win is suppressed to be lower than that in the normal state (range of Vb # <V3).

  Thus, based on the local potential distribution inside the battery, the secondary battery is charged / discharged so that the voltage between terminals (ie, electromotive force) does not rise (overcharge) or drop (overdischarge) beyond the limit. Can be controlled.

(Total charge / discharge control)
FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating charge / discharge control based on the first embodiment.

  Referring to FIG. 12, in step S100, ECU 50 determines battery external conditions (battery temperature Tb, battery current Ib, and the like based on detection values (sensor values) from sensor groups 30, 32, and 34 used in secondary battery 10. Know the battery voltage Vb).

In step S110, the ECU 50 calculates the predicted value of the internal state of the secondary battery by numerical calculation according to the battery model (equations (M1) to (M15)) reflecting the sensor value by the function of the battery model unit 60. To do. As already described, this internal state includes a local lithium ion concentration distribution (c _s , c _e ), a local potential distribution (φ _e , φ _s ), and a local temperature distribution (T). Shall be.

In step S130, the ECU 50 calculates input / output possible powers Win (1) and Wout (1) according to the method shown in FIGS. 5 to 7 based on the lithium ion concentration distribution inside the battery. Similarly, in step S140, the ECU 50 calculates input / output possible powers Win (2) and Wout (2) according to the technique shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 based on the temperature distribution inside the battery. Further, in step S150, the ECU 50, based on the predicted inter-terminal voltage calculated using the local potential distributions φ _e and φ _s , can input / output power Win (3) according to the method shown in FIGS. ), Wout (3).

  Further, in step S160, the ECU 50, in steps S130 to S150, can input powers Win (1) to Win (3) calculated based on the inter-terminal voltages based on the lithium ion concentration distribution, the temperature distribution, and the potential distribution, respectively. ) Is the final inputtable power Win. Furthermore, the minimum value among the outputtable powers Wout (1) to Wout (3) calculated in steps S130 to S150 is set as the final outputable power Wout. That is, the processing in steps S130 to S170 corresponds to the function of the input / output power limiting unit 70.

  As described above, according to the charge / discharge control of the secondary battery according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the internal reaction of the secondary battery, that is, the local active material utilization in each region of the battery is determined by the battery model. It is possible to appropriately limit charging / discharging of the secondary battery 10 so as to avoid a phenomenon that leads to local battery deterioration.

  Note that FIG. 12 illustrates a method of performing charge / discharge control in consideration of three internal distributions of the lithium ion concentration distribution (S130), the temperature distribution (S140), and the terminal voltage (S150) based on the potential distribution. It is also possible to perform charge / discharge control using a part of these three internal distributions. Alternatively, charge / discharge control can be performed by another internal state distribution estimated by the battery model unit 60, or by a combination of at least a part of the internal distributions exemplified so far and other internal distributions. .

[Embodiment 2]
The prediction accuracy of the battery internal state by the battery model shown in the first embodiment depends on the accuracy of constants (parameters) used in the battery model. In the second embodiment, parameter update in battery model unit 60 and remaining life estimation associated with parameter update will be described.

  FIG. 13 is a block diagram for explaining a functional configuration of a portion of the ECU 50 according to the second embodiment.

  Referring to FIG. 13, ECU 50 according to the second embodiment includes a battery model unit 60, a parameter identification model unit 65, a comparison unit 75, and a parameter management unit 80.

In the second embodiment, a diagnostic mode is provided for the secondary battery 10.
Referring to FIG. 14, in the diagnostic mode, secondary battery 10 performs a diagnostic operation such that a constant current is output in a pulse form between times t0 and t2. With this diagnostic operation, the battery voltage Vb gradually recovers after the pulse current is interrupted (that is, after time t2) in accordance with the output of the pulse current. Such voltage behavior is detected by the voltage sensor 34, and the battery voltage Vb is input to the comparison unit 75. Such a diagnostic mode is preferably performed after a predetermined time (about 30 minutes) has elapsed since the end of use of the secondary battery and the internal state of the secondary battery becomes static.

  On the other hand, the battery model unit 60 predicts the internal state of the secondary battery in the diagnosis mode according to the battery model. As a result, the inter-terminal voltage calculation unit 71 calculates the predicted inter-terminal voltage Vb # and inputs it to the comparison unit 75. That is, the inter-terminal voltage calculation unit 71 corresponds to “output voltage prediction unit”, and the comparison unit 75 corresponds to “comparison unit”.

The parameter identification model unit 65 is configured to be able to identify some of the parameters used in the battery model based on the behavior of the secondary battery during the diagnostic mode operation. For example, it is possible to estimate the exchange current density i ₀ based on the voltage behavior when the pulsed current is output. Further, it is possible to estimate the diffusion coefficient D _s at the positive electrode based on the voltage behavior after the pulse current interruption. The parameter to be identified is determined by the identification model prepared in the parameter identification model unit 65.

  The comparison unit 75 compares the actual battery voltage Vb detected by the voltage sensor 34 with the predicted inter-terminal voltage Vb # based on the prediction by the battery model unit 60, and if the difference between the two is large, the parameter management unit 80 is notified.

  When the comparison unit 75 determines that the voltage behavior prediction error is large, the parameter management unit 80 sets the parameter value used in the battery model for the parameter identified by the parameter identification model unit 65 to the parameter identification model unit 65. Update to the parameter identification value.

  Next, the remaining life diagnosis of the secondary battery accompanying the parameter update as described above will be described with reference to FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 15, for parameters to be updated by the parameter management unit 80 (in FIG. 15, X and Y are exemplarily described), parameter values corresponding to the usage of the secondary battery in advance. Change, that is, deterioration characteristics are demanded. As the usage of the secondary battery, for example, a use period (time) or a charge / discharge current integrated value is used. In particular, when a secondary battery that is charged and discharged according to the present invention is mounted on a vehicle such as a hybrid vehicle, the travel distance can be used as the battery usage.

  As shown in FIG. 15, a deterioration characteristic line 200 is obtained in advance for the parameter X to be updated, and a deterioration characteristic line 210 is obtained in advance for the parameter Y.

  For the degradation characteristic lines 200 and 210, the limit value for the parameter is obtained in advance, and when the parameter value changes (decreases or increases) beyond the limit value, it is determined that it is a lifetime region.

  At the time of parameter update, the remaining life can be estimated for the usage of the secondary battery from the difference between the parameter value at the time of update and the limit value.

FIG. 16 is a flowchart illustrating a diagnosis mode according to the second embodiment.
Referring to FIG. 16, in step S200, ECU 50 confirms whether or not a diagnosis mode activation condition is satisfied. The start-up condition in the diagnosis mode is established for every elapse of a certain period or every certain distance traveling when the vehicle is mounted. Alternatively, an average SOC as an average value of the lithium ion concentration distribution obtained by the battery model unit 60 is separately obtained, and according to a deviation from the overall SOC obtained by the overall SOC calculation unit 62 based on the integrated value of the battery current Ib. Thus, the start condition of the diagnosis mode may be established.

  If the diagnosis mode activation condition is not activated (NO determination in step S200), ECU 50 ends the process without executing the following steps.

  ECU 50 instructs the execution of the diagnostic mode discharge shown in FIG. 14 in step S210 when the diagnostic mode activation condition is satisfied (YES determination in step S200).

  In step S220, the ECU 50 determines whether the parameter needs to be updated based on the behavior of the battery voltage Vb in the diagnosis mode. This process corresponds to the operation of the comparison unit 75 in FIG.

  Further, ECU 50 updates parameters as necessary in step S230. This process corresponds to the parameter update operation by the parameter management unit 80 and the parameter identification model unit 65 shown in FIG.

  In step S240, the ECU 50 estimates the remaining life of the secondary battery described with reference to FIG. 15 by comparing the updated parameter value with the previously determined deterioration characteristic (deterioration characteristic lines 200 and 210 in FIG. 15). To do.

  By adopting such a configuration, when the deviation between the actual behavior of the secondary battery 10 and the prediction by the battery model becomes large, the parameters of the battery model formula can be updated sequentially. As a result, the internal state of the battery can be grasped more accurately, and the battery performance at that time can be utilized to the maximum extent. In addition, the charge / discharge control described in the first embodiment can also more reliably prevent local deterioration and thermal runaway.

  Furthermore, it is possible to determine the remaining life of the secondary battery along with the parameter update and notify the driver. Thereby, the effective use of the secondary battery and the improvement of the convenience for the driver are realized.

[Modification of Embodiment 2]
In the modification of the second embodiment, a configuration in which parameters are updated based on data when the secondary battery 10 is used without executing a special diagnostic mode will be described.

  FIG. 17 is a block diagram illustrating a functional configuration of a part according to a modification of the second embodiment of the ECU.

  Referring to FIG. 17, ECU 50 according to the modification of the second embodiment includes a battery model unit 60, a parameter identification model unit 65 #, and a parameter management unit 80.

  Parameter identification model unit 65 # operates in parallel with battery model unit 60 in response to online detection values (battery temperature Tb, battery current Ib, and battery voltage Vb) detected by sensor groups 30-34. That is, the online detection value of the secondary battery 10 at the time of actual use is input, and the parameters in the battery model formula of the battery model unit 60 are identified online.

Such online parameter identification is possible depending on the type of parameters used in the battery model formula. For example, as shown in FIG. 18, the interface DC resistance R in the battery model equation is obtained by obtaining the slope of Vb with respect to Ib from a set of on-line characteristic points 250 in which the relationship between the battery current Ib and the battery voltage Vb is plotted. It becomes possible to identify _f .

  Parameter management unit 80 updates the parameter value used in the battery model to the parameter identification value by parameter identification model unit 65 # for the parameter identified online by parameter identification model unit 65 # when a predetermined parameter update condition is satisfied. .

  The predetermined parameter update condition is, for example, an average SOC as an average value of the lithium ion concentration distribution obtained by the battery model unit 60 and an overall SOC obtained by the overall SOC calculation unit 62 based on the integrated value of the battery current Ib. This is established when the deviation from the above becomes greater than or equal to a predetermined value, or when the frequency at which the deviation occurs is greater than or equal to a predetermined value.

  By adopting such a configuration, the parameters of the battery model formula can be updated sequentially for the parameters that can be identified online. As a result, the internal state of the battery can be grasped more accurately, and the battery performance at that time can be utilized to the maximum extent. In addition, the charge / discharge control described in the first embodiment can also more reliably prevent local deterioration and thermal runaway.

[Secondary battery installation example]
The secondary battery controlled by the secondary battery charging / discharging device described above can be mounted on the hybrid drive vehicle 500 as shown in FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 19, hybrid drive vehicle 500 includes an engine 510, a battery 520 controlled by a battery ECU 525 corresponding to a secondary battery charge control device according to the present invention, an inverter 530, wheels 540a, a transaxle. 550 and an electronic control unit (HV-ECU) 590 that controls the overall operation of the hybrid drive vehicle 500.

  The engine 510 generates driving force using combustion energy of fuel such as gasoline as a source. The battery 520 supplies DC power to the power line 551. Battery 520 is typically formed of a lithium ion secondary battery, and is controlled by battery ECU 525 in the same manner as secondary battery 10 in the first and second embodiments. That is, battery ECU 520 sets input / output possible powers Win and Wout based on a battery model that predicts the internal state of battery 510.

  Inverter 530 converts the DC power supplied from battery 510 into AC power and outputs the AC power to power line 553. Alternatively, inverter 530 converts AC power supplied to power lines 552 and 553 to DC power and outputs the DC power to power line 551.

  Transaxle 550 includes a transmission and an axle (axle) as an integral structure, and includes a power split mechanism 560, a reduction gear 570, a motor generator MG1, and a motor generator MG2.

  Power split device 560 can divide the driving force generated by engine 510 into a transmission path to drive shaft 545 for driving wheel 540a via reduction gear 570 and a transmission path to motor generator MG1.

  Motor generator MG1 is rotated by the driving force from engine 510 transmitted via power split mechanism 560 to generate electric power. The electric power generated by motor generator MG1 is supplied to inverter 530 via electric power line 552, and is used as charging electric power for battery 520 or as driving electric power for motor generator MG2.

  Motor generator MG2 is rotationally driven by AC power supplied from inverter 530 to power line 553. The driving force generated by motor generator MG2 is transmitted to drive shaft 545 via reduction gear 570. When motor generator MG2 is rotated as the wheels 540a are decelerated during the regenerative braking operation, an electromotive force (AC power) generated in motor generator MG2 is supplied to power line 553. In this case, the battery 520 is charged by the inverter 530 converting the AC power supplied to the power line 553 into DC power and outputting the DC power to the power line 551.

  Each of motor generators MG1 and MG2 can function as both a generator and an electric motor. However, motor generator MG1 generally operates as a generator, and motor generator MG2 mainly operates as an electric motor.

  The HV-ECU 590 controls the overall operation of the device / circuit group mounted on the automobile in order to drive the hybrid drive vehicle 500 in accordance with the driver's instruction. The HV-ECU 590 is typically composed of a microcomputer and a memory (RAM, ROM, etc.) for executing a predetermined sequence and a predetermined calculation programmed in advance.

  As described above, in hybrid drive vehicle 500, the fuel efficiency is improved by a combination of the drive force generated by engine 510 and the drive force driven by motor generator MG2 using electric energy from battery 520 as a source. Do the driving.

  For example, at the time of starting and at a light load such as when driving at a low speed or going down a gentle hill, the hybrid drive vehicle 500 basically does not operate the engine to avoid the motor generator MG2 in order to avoid a region where the engine efficiency is low. Drives only with the driving force of.

  During normal travel, the driving force output from engine 510 is divided into driving force for wheels 540a and driving force for power generation by motor generator MG1 by power split mechanism 560. Electric power generated by motor generator MG1 is used to drive motor generator MG2. Therefore, during normal travel, the wheels 540a are driven by assisting the driving force of engine 510 with the driving force of motor generator MG2. ECU 590 controls the driving force sharing ratio between engine 510 and motor generator MG2.

  During full-open acceleration, the driving power of the wheels 540a can be further increased by further using the power supplied from the battery 520 for driving the second motor generator MG2.

  During deceleration and braking, motor generator MG2 acts as a generator that performs regenerative power generation by generating torque in the direction opposite to the rotation of wheel 540a. Electric power recovered by regenerative power generation of motor generator MG2 is used for charging battery 520 via power line 553, inverter 530, and power line 551. Further, engine 510 is automatically stopped when the vehicle is stopped.

  In this manner, the distribution between the engine 510 and the motor generator MG2 with respect to the required output power in the entire vehicle is determined according to the driving situation. Specifically, the HV-ECU 590 determines the distribution according to the driving situation in consideration of the efficiency of the engine 510 from the aspect of fuel consumption.

  At this time, output commands of engine 510 and motor generator MG2 (or so that battery 520 is charged / discharged within the range of input / output available power Win, Wout set by battery ECU 525 according to the first and second embodiments. By generating the torque command, it is possible to avoid a phenomenon that leads to local battery deterioration inside the battery 520, and to extend the life of the battery 520. Further, it is possible to determine the remaining life of the battery 520 accompanying the battery model type parameter update.
