Description

【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は電気二重層キャパシタを主蓄電装置に使用した電気自動車またはハイブリッド電気自動車の電源システムに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、電気自動車またはハイブリッド電気自動車の蓄電装置には化学電池を適用していたが、化学電池は充放電サイクル寿命が短く、且つ高出力作動時の効率が悪いため、電気二重層キャパシタ電池が適用されてきている。
図5は、ハイブリッド電気自動車の主蓄電装置に電気二重層キャパシタを適用した電源システムの基本構成例を示す。図において、1はエンジン、2は発電機、3は整流器、4は主蓄電装置、5は車両駆動電動機6を駆動するインバータである。エンジン1から車両駆動電動機6までがパワートレインである。7は補助蓄電装置8を充電するDC−DCコンバータ、9は補機である。主蓄電装置4は、電気二重層キャパシタセル41,42,43,・・を複数直列接続して構成されている。なお、電動機6以降の駆動機構についての図示は省略してある。
【0003】
図示されたシステムは、シリーズハイブリッド式の電気自動車の電源システムであり、エンジン1と発電機2で発生した電力の一部または全部を主蓄電装置4に充電する。エンジン1と発電機2で発生した電力と主蓄電装置4の電力で、インバータ5を介して電動機6を駆動して車両を走行させる。加速時は、発電機2の電力と主蓄電装置4の電力または主蓄電装置4のみの電力で、インバータ5を介して電動機6を加速駆動する。回生制動時は、電動機6に発生した制動電力がインバータ5を介して、主蓄電装置4に回生される。また、DC−DCコンバータ7はパワートレイン系の主蓄電装置4から補助電源8を充電するチャージャであり、エンジン車のオルタネータに相当する。
【0004】
なお、発電機を搭載しない電気自動車の電源システムは、図5から、エンジン1、発電機2、整流器3を除去したシステム構成となり、共通の構成部分は動作が同一となるので、詳述を省略する。
図6は図5のDC−DCコンバータ7の回路構成を示したものである。図において、70,71は半導体スイッチ、72,73,74,75はダイオード、76は変圧器、77は電流平滑リアクトル、78,79は電圧平滑コンデンサである。この回路方式は2石式フォワード型と呼ばれる公知の回路方式であるのでその動作説明は省略する。
【0005】
前述したように、主蓄電装置4は車両の加速時には放電、制動時には充電の繰り返し作動となり、その回数は数万回にも達する。電気自動車用主蓄電装置はこの充放電サイクル回数に耐えるものでなくてはならない。前述の電気二重層キャパシタによる蓄電装置はこの性能を有しており、電気自動車用として優れた蓄電装置と言える。
図5に示した電気二重層キャパシタ電池も、従来の化学二次電池を多数直列接続した組電池と同じく、電気二重層キャパシタセルを多数直列接続して構成されており、従来の化学二次電池が電気二重層キャパシタに置き換えられたシステムである。
【0006】
さて、電気二重層キャパシタの蓄電エネルギはキャパシタの電圧の2乗に比例する。言い換えれば、直流電源として使用した場合、消費エネルギの増大に応じて電気二重層キャパシタの電圧は低下して行く。エネルギの75%を使用すると、電圧は1/2に低下する。図5に示す電源システムでは、消費電力によってインバータの入力電圧が大きく変化する。特に電気自動車の場合、電圧が低下すると、中高速域の車両性能が大きく低下する。このため、実際は図7に示すように主蓄電装置であるキャパシタ電池4とインバータ5との中間にチョッパ44を挿入して、インバータ5への入力電圧を一定にする方法や、図8に示したように、キャパシタ電池を複数のブロックに分割し、このブロックをスイッチで切り替えて、インバータの入力電圧の変化を小さくする方法が提案されている。
【0007】
すなわち、図8において、10,11,12はキャパシタ電池ブロックであり、各々キャパシタセル100,110,120を必要数直列接続している。13はキャパシタブロックの接続切替スイッチである。図9は図8の切替スイッチ部13の詳細を示す図である。130,131,132は両方向通流型のスイッチで、通常半導体スイッチが用いられる。図10は図9の電源システムの場合のインバータ入力電圧の挙動を示す。動作モードIでは、スイッチ130を閉じて、スイッチ131,132は開とする。すると、キャパシタ電池はキャパシタ電池ブロック10の電圧となる。動作モードIIでは、スイッチ131を閉じて、スイッチ130,132を開にする。すると、キャパシタ電池はキャパシタ電池ブロック10,12の直列となる。動作モードIIIでは、スイッチ132を閉じて、スイッチ130,131を開にする。すると、キャパシタ電池はキャパシタ電池ブロック10,11,12の直列となる。
【0008】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、前述のように電気二重層キャパシタは化学電池と違い、蓄積エネルギは電圧の2乗に比例する。すなわち、蓄積エネルギの増大に応じて、キャパシタ電圧が上昇する。また、図5〜図9に示した電源システムでは電気二重層キャパシタを従来の化学二次電池の組電池と同じように使用している。即ち、多数のキャパシタセルを直列接続したキャパシタ電池を1つのキャパシタ電池とみなして使用している。多数直列接続された電気二重層キャパシタは、充電した状態での長時間放置または充放電を繰り返すとキャパシタセル電圧にバラツキが発生するので、頻繁に充放電を繰り返す電気自動車に適用すると、この電圧のバラツキによって、一部のキャパシタセルが過電圧になり、キャパシタ電池の故障に至ってしまう。
【0009】
電気自動車にとって、蓄電装置の故障は重大故障であるので、電気二重層キャパシタ電池を電気自動車に適用する場合、キャパシタセルが過電圧にならないことが大きく求められている。次に、直列接続された電気二重層キャパシタセルの電圧挙動について説明する。図5に示した電気二重層キャパシタセルの内部等価回路は図11のように表される。図11は図5のキャパシタセル41について示したものである。電気二重層キャパシタセル41は、等価的にキャパシタエレメント410a,411a,412a,・・・が抵抗410b,411b,412b,・・・を介して並列接続されているとみなせる。また、キャパシタセル毎に自己放電を等価的に表す放電抵抗410c,411c,412c,・・・がキャパシタエレメント410a,411a,412a,・・・に並列に接続されているとみなせる。
【0010】
ここで、電気自動車用主蓄電装置に電気二重層キャパシタ電池を適用する場合、電気二重層キャパシタセルを複数個直列接続して使用するが、各キャパシタセル毎の回路定数は全て同じではないことによる問題が発生する。以下にその内容を説明する。キャパシタ電池を充電した状態で長時間放置すると、各キャパシタセル毎に内部の自己放電抵抗によって自己放電する。この直列接続キャパシタセルの電圧挙動を図12で説明する。説明を簡素化するため、2ケ直列の場合で説明する。
【0011】
図12で、2ケのキャパシタセルC1,C2が均一に電圧V1に充電された状態(合成電圧はV0)の時刻t=T0で、キャパシタ電池を開放状態にして放置する。時刻t=T1までキャパシタセルを自己放電させると、自己放電抵抗値の違いにより、時刻t=T1でのキャパシタセルC1,C2の電圧値は異なってくる。次に、時刻t=T1からキャパシタ合成電圧が規定値V0になるt=T2まで充電する。両キャパシタセルはほぼ同じ電圧ΔV/2上昇する。時刻t=T2でキャパシタセルC1の電圧はキャパシタセルC2よりも大きくなるが、過電圧レベルV2には達しない。
【0012】
時刻t=T2で、再びキャパシタ電池を開放状態にして放置する。両キャパシタセルは自己放電を始める。時刻t=T3のキャパシタセル電圧のバラツキは時刻t=T1の時よりも更に拡大する。時刻t=T3で再び、キャパシタセル合成電圧が規定値V1になる時刻t=T4まで充電する。時刻t=T3の時点でのキャパシタセル電圧のバラツキを受けて、時刻t=T4での電圧のバラツキは時刻t=T2の時の電圧より更に拡大し、キャパシタセルC1の電圧は過電圧レベルV2を越えてしまい、キャパシタセルの故障にまで発展してしまう。図12では、時刻t=T1,T2で開放して自己放電させる場合について示したが、負荷へ電力供給して放電する場合も同じ現象となる。この場合は、自己放電の場合より、放電時間は短くなる。
【0013】
【課題を解決するための手段】
そこでこれらの問題の対策として、従来は、電気二重層キャパシタセルを多数直列接続して電池として使用する場合、直列キャパシタセルの1つでも過電圧にならないよう、各キャパシタセル毎に電圧均等化回路を接続し、キャパシタセルが過電圧になる前に、適当なタイミングでキャパシタセル電圧を均等にする方法がとられている。図13はこの方法について示したものである。図12の場合と同じく、直列数2の場合で示してある。キャパシタセル電圧Vが基準電圧V1に達すると、電圧均等化回路4a,4bを作動させて充電電流I0の一部をibとして電圧均等化回路4a,4bに分流させる。キャパシタセル電圧の上昇に応じて、この分流量を増し、キャパシタセル電圧がV2に達すると、キャパシタセルへの電流icを零にする。
【0014】
このように、キャパシタセル電圧を監視し、規定電圧以上では充電電流をバイパスさせることによって、キャパシタセルの電圧はV2より高くはならない。なお、電圧均等化回路には、V2とI0の積の電力損失が発生するが、V2は2〜3Vであり、I0は数Aにしているので、発生電力は数W程度である。また、図12において、キャパシタセルC1の電圧がV2に達すると、電圧均等化回路が作動して、電圧はV2に保たれる。更に充電を続けるとキャパシタセルC2も同様に電圧均等化回路の動作によってV2になり、キャパシタセルの電圧バラツキはほぼ零となり、直列キャパシタセル全部の充電電圧は同一のV2になる。
【0015】
このように、全キャパシタセルの電圧を同一に揃えた後、正規の負荷電力の放充電を行うと、放充電サイクル及び時間経過に伴いキャパシタ電圧のバラツキは拡大して行く、そこで適当な時間経過後または適当な放充電サイクル経過後に前述の均等充電を行って、キャパシタセル電圧のバラツキをほぼ零に補正する。このような使い方をすることで、本発明では、直列接続されたキャパシタセルが過電圧にさらされることがなくなり、長寿命なキャパシタ電池が実現される。
【0016】
すなわち、本発明は、直列接続された電気二重層キャパシタセルを小電力の外部電源によって充電し、各セルに接続したセル過電圧保護回路によってセル電圧を揃えることで十分な充放電サイクルが得られること、また、電気自動車には補機用の補助蓄電装置を備えていることに着目してなされたものである。
具体的には、補助蓄電装置からDC−DCコンバータを介して、複数のブロックに分割された電気二重層キャパシタ電池毎にキャパシタセル全数を均一電圧に充電(以下これを全揃充電と称する)するようにしたものである。また、補助蓄電装置用のDC−DCコンバータと全揃充電用のDC−DCコンバータとを同一のDC−DCコンバータとしかつ双方向型としたものである。
【0017】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、図に沿って本発明の実施形態を説明する。図1は本発明の第1の実施形態であって請求項1,2に相当する発明であり、自動車の補助蓄電装置を電源にしてキャパシタセルを全揃充電するシステムである。図1において、5はインバータであり、車両駆動電動機6を駆動する。7は補助蓄電装置8を充電するDC−DCコンバータであり、13は電気二重層キャパシタ電池ブロック接続切替え回路である。
【0018】
14,15,16はキャパシタ全揃充電用DC−DCコンバ−タであり、補助蓄電装置8の電力を用いて、キャパシタ電池ブロック10,11,12を充電する充電器である。このキャパシタ電池ブロック10,11,12のそれぞれのキャパシタセルの直列接続数は互いに異なるので、DC−DCコンバータ14,15,16の出力(キャパシタ側)電圧も互いに異なる。
【0019】
図2は図1のDC−DCコンバータ14の回路構成例を示したものである。DC−DCコンバータ14は絶縁型チョッパであり、図1と同一構成要素は同一番号を付してある。図2において、140は半導体スイッチ、141,142,143,144,145はダイオード、146は変圧器、147は電流平滑リアクトル、148,149は電圧平滑コンデンサである。出力側(キャパシタ側)の電圧は変圧器146の巻数比を変えることで変える。この図示された絶縁型チョッパの動作は公知であるので、ここでは説明を省略する。また、図1のDC−DCコンバータ15,16もコンバータ14と同様な構成であるので説明を省略する。
【0020】
図3は本発明の第2の実施形態であり、請求項3に相当する発明である。すなわち、図1の発明で示したDC−DCコンバータ14,15,16の機能とDC−DCコンバータ7の両方の機能を持ったDC−DCコンバータの回路構成例である。図3において、図1と同一の構成要素は同一番号を付してある。図3において、9は補助蓄電装置8により駆動される補機、17,18,19は双方向動作型のDC−DCコンバータであり、キャパシタ電池ブロック10,11,12から補助蓄電装置8への充電機能と補助蓄電装置8からキャパシタ電池ブロック10,11,12への充電機能を備えている。
【0021】
図4は図3のDC−DCコンバータ17の回路構成例である。図4において、図3と同一構成要素には同一番号を付してある。図4において、170,171,172,173は半導体スイッチ、170a,171a,172a,173a,174,175はダイオードであり、170,171,172,173の半導体スイッチにはダイオード170a,171a,172a,173aが図示のように逆並列接続されている。176は変圧器、177は電流平滑リアクトル、178,179は電圧平滑コンデンサである。
【0022】
次に、図4のDC−DCコンバータ17の動作について説明する。補助蓄電装置8をキャパシタ電池ブロック10から充電する場合は、半導体スイッチ170,171はオフし、172と173をスイッチングする。この場合の回路構成は図6に示した従来公知の2石式フォワード型と等価な回路となる。次に、補助蓄電装置8からキャパシタ電池10を充電する場合は、半導体スイッチ172,173をオフし、170,171をスイッチングする。この場合の回路構成は図2と等価な回路となる。但し、半導体スイッチ171は図2のダイオード141と同じ動作をさせる。
【0023】
なお、図3におけるコンバータ18,19の回路構成は、図4のDC−DCコンバータ17と同じであるのでその説明を省略する。
また、図示しないが、キャパシタ電池ブロック10,11,12のそれぞれのキャパシタセルには、図13に示したようなセル過電圧保護回路(電圧均等化回路)が接続されており、充電の際に各セルの電圧が揃えられる。
【0024】
【発明の効果】
以上述べたように、本発明は電気自動車又はハイブリッド電気自動車の主蓄電装置に、電気二重層キャパシタセルを直列接続したキャパシタ電池を複数のブロックに分割し、このブロックを双方向通電型スイッチで直列数を切替えるようにした電源システムにおいて、各電池ブロックのキャパシタセルを車載の補助蓄電装置からDC−DCコンバータを介してキャパシタセル電圧を常に均一に充電して使用するするように構成したことで、次の効果が得られる。
【0025】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a power supply system for an electric vehicle or a hybrid electric vehicle using an electric double layer capacitor as a main power storage device.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, chemical batteries have been applied to power storage devices for electric vehicles or hybrid electric vehicles. However, since chemical batteries have a short charge / discharge cycle life and poor efficiency during high output operation, electric double layer capacitor batteries are used. Has been.
FIG. 5 shows a basic configuration example of a power supply system in which an electric double layer capacitor is applied to a main power storage device of a hybrid electric vehicle. In the figure, 1 is an engine, 2 is a generator, 3 is a rectifier, 4 is a main power storage device, and 5 is an inverter that drives a
[0003]
The illustrated system is a power supply system for a series hybrid electric vehicle, and charges part or all of the electric power generated by the engine 1 and the generator 2 to the main power storage device 4. The electric power generated by the engine 1 and the generator 2 and the electric power of the main power storage device 4 are used to drive the
[0004]
The power supply system for an electric vehicle not equipped with a generator has a system configuration in which the engine 1, the generator 2, and the rectifier 3 are removed from FIG. To do.
FIG. 6 shows a circuit configuration of the DC-
[0005]
As described above, the main power storage device 4 is repeatedly discharged during vehicle acceleration and charged during braking, and the number of times reaches tens of thousands of times. The main power storage device for electric vehicles must be able to withstand this number of charge / discharge cycles. The power storage device using the electric double layer capacitor described above has this performance, and can be said to be an excellent power storage device for an electric vehicle.
The electric double layer capacitor battery shown in FIG. 5 is also configured by connecting a large number of electric double layer capacitor cells in series in the same manner as an assembled battery in which a number of conventional chemical secondary batteries are connected in series. Is a system in which an electric double layer capacitor is replaced.
[0006]
The stored energy of the electric double layer capacitor is proportional to the square of the capacitor voltage. In other words, when used as a DC power supply, the voltage of the electric double layer capacitor decreases as the energy consumption increases. Using 75% of the energy, the voltage drops to ½. In the power supply system shown in FIG. 5, the input voltage of the inverter varies greatly depending on the power consumption. In particular, in the case of an electric vehicle, when the voltage is lowered, the vehicle performance in the middle and high speed range is greatly lowered. Therefore, in practice, as shown in FIG. 7, a method of making the input voltage to the
[0007]
That is, in FIG. 8,
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Incidentally, as described above, the electric double layer capacitor is different from the chemical battery in that the stored energy is proportional to the square of the voltage. That is, the capacitor voltage increases as the stored energy increases. Moreover, in the power supply system shown in FIGS. 5-9, the electric double layer capacitor is used similarly to the assembled battery of the conventional chemical secondary battery. That is, a capacitor battery in which a large number of capacitor cells are connected in series is used as one capacitor battery. A large number of electric double layer capacitors connected in series will cause variations in the capacitor cell voltage if they are left for a long time in a charged state or repeatedly charged and discharged, so when applied to an electric vehicle that repeatedly charges and discharges, this voltage Due to the variation, some of the capacitor cells become overvoltage, leading to failure of the capacitor battery.
[0009]
For an electric vehicle, a failure of a power storage device is a serious failure. Therefore, when an electric double layer capacitor battery is applied to an electric vehicle, it is highly required that the capacitor cell does not become overvoltage. Next, the voltage behavior of the electric double layer capacitor cells connected in series will be described. An internal equivalent circuit of the electric double layer capacitor cell shown in FIG. 5 is expressed as shown in FIG. FIG. 11 shows the
[0010]
Here, when an electric double layer capacitor battery is applied to a main power storage device for an electric vehicle, a plurality of electric double layer capacitor cells are connected in series, but the circuit constants for each capacitor cell are not all the same. A problem occurs. The contents will be described below. If the capacitor battery is left in a charged state for a long time, each capacitor cell is self-discharged by an internal self-discharge resistor. The voltage behavior of this series-connected capacitor cell will be described with reference to FIG. In order to simplify the description, a case where two are connected in series will be described.
[0011]
In FIG. 12, at time t = T0 in a state where the two capacitor cells C1 and C2 are uniformly charged to the voltage V1 (the combined voltage is V0), the capacitor battery is left open and left. When the capacitor cell is self-discharged until time t = T1, the voltage values of the capacitor cells C1 and C2 at time t = T1 differ due to the difference in self-discharge resistance value. Next, charging is performed from time t = T1 until t = T2 at which the capacitor combined voltage reaches the specified value V0. Both capacitor cells rise to approximately the same voltage ΔV / 2. At time t = T2, the voltage of the capacitor cell C1 becomes higher than that of the capacitor cell C2, but does not reach the overvoltage level V2.
[0012]
At time t = T2, the capacitor battery is again opened and left. Both capacitor cells begin self-discharge. The variation in the capacitor cell voltage at time t = T3 is further enlarged than that at time t = T1. At time t = T3, charging is performed again until time t = T4 when the capacitor cell composite voltage reaches the specified value V1. In response to the variation in the capacitor cell voltage at the time t = T3, the voltage variation at the time t = T4 further expands compared to the voltage at the time t = T2, and the voltage of the capacitor cell C1 reaches the overvoltage level V2. And it will develop to the failure of the capacitor cell. Although FIG. 12 shows the case of opening and self-discharging at time t = T1, T2, the same phenomenon occurs when power is supplied to the load for discharge. In this case, the discharge time is shorter than in the case of self-discharge.
[0013]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Therefore, as a countermeasure against these problems, conventionally, when a plurality of electric double layer capacitor cells are connected in series and used as a battery, a voltage equalization circuit is provided for each capacitor cell so that even one of the series capacitor cells does not become an overvoltage. A method is adopted in which the capacitor cell voltages are equalized at an appropriate timing before the capacitor cells are overvoltaged. FIG. 13 shows this method. As in the case of FIG. 12, the case of serial number 2 is shown. When the capacitor cell voltage V reaches the reference voltage V1, the
[0014]
Thus, by monitoring the capacitor cell voltage and bypassing the charging current above the specified voltage, the voltage of the capacitor cell cannot be higher than V2. In the voltage equalization circuit, a power loss of the product of V2 and I0 occurs, but V2 is 2 to 3 V and I0 is set to several A, so the generated power is about several W. In FIG. 12, when the voltage of the capacitor cell C1 reaches V2, the voltage equalization circuit operates and the voltage is kept at V2. If the charging is further continued, the capacitor cell C2 similarly becomes V2 by the operation of the voltage equalizing circuit, the voltage variation of the capacitor cell becomes almost zero, and the charging voltage of all the series capacitor cells becomes the same V2.
[0015]
In this way, when the regular load power is discharged after all the capacitor cells have the same voltage, the variation in the capacitor voltage increases as the discharge cycle and time elapse. The above-described equal charge is performed later or after an appropriate discharge / charge cycle, and the variation in the capacitor cell voltage is corrected to almost zero. By using such a method, in the present invention, capacitor cells connected in series are not exposed to overvoltage, and a long-life capacitor battery is realized.
[0016]
That is, according to the present invention, a sufficient charge / discharge cycle can be obtained by charging serially connected electric double layer capacitor cells with a low-power external power source and aligning the cell voltages with a cell overvoltage protection circuit connected to each cell. In addition, the electric vehicle is made paying attention to an auxiliary power storage device for auxiliary equipment.
Specifically, the total number of capacitor cells is charged to a uniform voltage for each electric double layer capacitor battery divided into a plurality of blocks from the auxiliary power storage device via a DC-DC converter (hereinafter referred to as full charge). It is what I did. Further, the DC-DC converter for the auxiliary power storage device and the DC-DC converter for full charge are the same DC-DC converter and are of a bidirectional type.
