目前,从市场形势的发展来看,二次电池的应用越加广泛。二次电池不仅被应用于水力、火力、风力和太阳能电站等储能电源系统,而且还被广泛应用于电动自行车、电动摩托车、电动汽车等电动交通工具,以及军事装备和航空航天等多个领域。随着二次电池应用领域的不断扩大,其市场的需求量也在不断地扩增。
汽车是现代社会的重要交通工具,也是国民经济的重要支柱产业。随着我国经济持续快速发展和城镇化进程加速推进,今后较长一段时期汽车需求量仍将保持增长势头,由此带来的能源紧张和环境污染问题将更加突出。加快培育和发展节能汽车与新能源汽车,既是有效缓解能源和环境压力,也是推动汽车产业可持续发展的紧迫任务。近几年,新能源行业凭借自身优势,再加上各国政府的政策法规支持,电动汽车取得了巨大的发展。
为了满足新能源汽车的动力需求,延长纯电续驶里程,车载动力电池经常以多电池包串联或者并联的方式连接。多电池包串联使用时,整个电池组同时充放,不存在单个电池包间因电压差异而产生环流,对电池产生影响。但是,多电池包并联后直接与汽车的电箱连接,仍然会存在以下问题:
(1)由于电池包的阻值差异,放电过程中很难保证每个电池包的电量一致,可能导致多个电池包之间出现环流。
(2)由于多个电池包电量的差异,在充电过程中,也会引起多个电池包之间的环流。
申请人发现,环流的产生会引起电池包中锂电芯出现析锂现象。如果锂电芯的正极或负极析锂会形成大量的锂枝晶,锂枝晶会对电池包产生影响,从而降低了电池包的安全性能,也缩短电池包的使用寿命,包括:一方面锂枝晶可能会刺穿隔膜造成内短路,引发热失控;另一方面,在充电过程中产生的焦耳热、反应热和极化热使得电芯温度升高,而锂枝晶在较高的温度下会与电解液发生剧烈的反应,电芯温度快速上升到200℃以上,然后发生一系列反应,最终导致电芯热失控。
因此,申请人经过深入的研究,意外地发现,通过控制环流的大小或者消除环流的产生,能够减小环流对电池包中锂电芯的冲击与影响。
