[0059] As mentioned in the background technology, the fuel cell electric vehicles in the prior art do not have the protection function of the stack insulation failure, which will lead to the deterioration of the stack insulation failure and burn out the stack. The safety performance is low and the risk is high.
[0060] Based on this, the present application provides a control method and system for a fuel cell electric vehicle stack. The control method includes: obtaining the insulation resistance of the stack, wherein the stack includes: at least two sub-stacks connected in parallel; When the insulation resistance of the electric stack is less than the first preset threshold, the electric stack enters the failure operation mode after disconnecting the sub-stack whose insulation failure is connected to the DC bus. It can be seen from the above that, in the technical solution provided by this application, by judging that the insulation resistance of the stack is less than the first preset threshold, it is determined that the stack has an insulation failure fault, and then the sub-stacks that have an insulation failure fault are checked. Locate and disconnect the sub-stack with insulation failure from the DC bus, and then make the stack run in a faulty operation mode to protect the stack and prevent the insulation failure of the stack from worsening and burning the stack , improve the safety performance of the stack.
[0061] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are as follows, specifically combined with Figure 1 to Figure 4 The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail.

[0063] A control method for a fuel cell electric vehicle stack, comprising:
[0064] Obtaining the insulation resistance of the electric stack, wherein the electric stack includes: at least two sub-stacks connected in parallel;
[0065] When it is judged that the insulation resistance of the electric stack is less than a first preset threshold, the electric stack enters a failure operation mode after disconnecting the sub-stack whose insulation failure is connected to the DC bus.
[0066] It should be noted that: see Figure 4 As shown, the electric stack is composed of at least two sub-stacks connected in parallel, the positive pole of each sub-stack is connected to the positive pole of the DC bus, and the negative pole of each sub-stack is connected to the negative pole of the DC bus.
[0067] When the electric stack has an insulation failure fault, its resistance will inevitably be abnormal and not within the normal range, so the first preset threshold in the embodiment of the present application is used to judge whether the electric stack has an insulation failure fault. The embodiment of the application does not limit the specific value of the "first preset threshold", which needs to be selected according to specific calculations based on actual applications.
[0068] In this embodiment, when the insulation resistance of the electric stack is less than the first preset threshold value, it means that the electric stack has an insulation failure fault, and the electric stack is composed of at least two sub-stacks connected in parallel, therefore, there must be The insulation failure of the sub-stack will cause the insulation failure of the sub-stack. Therefore, after the insulation failure of the sub-stack is judged, it is necessary to locate the sub-stack with the insulation failure and connect the sub-stack with the failure. The connection of the DC bus is disconnected, that is, the sub-stacks with insulation failures are stopped from working, and then the sub-stacks are put into a fault operation mode to protect the sub-stacks with insulation failures.
[0069] Each sub-stack is composed of a series of battery slices in series, including air intake and exhaust ports; gas intake and exhaust ports, and power positive and negative output ports. The cathode of the sub-stack is fed with air, and the anode is fed with gas. At a certain temperature, an electrochemical reaction occurs through the battery sheet. The cathode oxygen becomes a positive ion, which is transferred to the anode through the electrolyte, and reacts with the hydrogen ions and CO of the anode to generate water and CO2, electrons pass through the load at the positive and negative poles of the sub-stack to form an electrical circuit.
[0070] The electric stack of the fuel cell may also include: sub-stacks, reformers, heat exchangers, burners, steam generators and other components, which generate the required electric power through electrochemical reactions, that is, the electric stacks And water work to generate power for the power battery and high-voltage components.
[0071] like figure 2 As shown, in an embodiment of the present application, when it is judged that the insulation resistance of the electric stack is less than the first preset threshold value, disconnecting the sub-stack whose insulation failure is connected to the DC bus includes:
[0072] When it is judged that the insulation resistance of the electric stack is less than the first preset threshold, the electric stack stops introducing air, gas and water, and disconnects the electric stack from the vehicle load, and the electric stack stops discharging;
[0073] Detecting whether each of the sub-stacks has an insulation failure;
[0074] The sub-stacks that control insulation failure are disconnected from the DC bus, and the remaining sub-stacks are connected to the DC bus.
[0075] It should be noted that the electric stack generates electricity by introducing air, gas and water, and provides the generated electricity to the vehicle load. When it is judged that the insulation resistance of the electric stack is less than the first preset threshold, it means that the electric stack Insulation failure of the stack occurs. At this time, the stack is controlled to stop introducing air, gas and water, and the connection between the stack and the load of the vehicle is disconnected. The performance of the battery will attenuate or cause the stack to be short-circuited to protect the stack.
[0076] Then detect each of the sub-stacks, find the sub-stacks with insulation failure, control the sub-stacks with insulation failure to disconnect from the DC bus, and control the remaining sub-stacks to connect to the DC bus to form a running the stack.
[0077] In an embodiment of the present application, detecting whether each sub-stack has insulation failure includes:

[0080] judging whether the disconnected sub-stacks have insulation failure by using the first insulation resistance and the second insulation resistance;
[0081] Disconnecting the connection between one of the sub-stacks and the DC bus again, and obtaining the third insulation resistance of the corresponding stack formed by the sub-stacks connected to the DC bus;
[0082] judging by the second insulation resistance and the third insulation resistance whether the sub-stacks disconnected again have insulation failure;
[0083] Repeat the above steps until it is judged whether all sub-stacks have insulation failure.
[0084] It should be noted that the insulation resistance is essentially the resistance of the stack, that is, the parallel resistance of all sub-stacks connected to the DC bus, wherein the first insulation resistance is that all sub-stacks are connected to the DC bus The parallel resistance of the second insulation resistance is the parallel connection resistance of the remaining sub-stacks after disconnecting any one of the sub-stacks from the DC bus, so that it can be determined by the first insulation resistance and the second insulation resistance Disconnect the resistance of the sub-stack connected to the DC bus, compare the resistance with a second preset threshold, and if the resistance is smaller than the second preset threshold, determine to disconnect the sub-stack connected to the DC bus Sub-stack insulation failure. By repeating the above steps, the resistance of each sub-stack can be obtained, and then it can be judged whether all the sub-stacks have insulation failure.

[0090] The resistance R1 of the sub-stack is compared with a second preset threshold, and if the resistance is smaller than the second preset threshold, it is determined that the sub-stack disconnected from the DC bus has an insulation failure.
[0091] It should be noted that the first equation is established according to the calculation formula of parallel resistance: 1/R1+1/R2+...1/Rn=1/Rt1, and the second equation: 1/R2+1/R2+...1 /Rn=1/Rt2; wherein, Rt1 is the first insulation resistance, Rt2 is the second insulation resistance, and R1-Rn are the resistances of each sub-stack;
[0092] The third-party program is obtained by making a difference between the first method and the second equation. The third-party program is: 1/R1=1/Rt1-1/Rt2, and the resistance calculation formula of the sub-stack can be obtained from the third-party program R1=Rt1*Rt2/(Rt2-Rt1);
[0093] That is, the resistance of the sub-stack is according to Ri=Rt i *Rt i+1 /(Rt i+1 -Rt i ) is calculated by this formula, where Ri is the resistance of the i-th sub-stack, Rt i is the parallel resistance of i sub-stacks connected to the DC bus, Rt i+1 is the parallel resistance of the remaining i-1 sub-stacks connected to the DC bus bar except the i-th sub-stack, 1≤i≤n-1, when calculating the insulation resistance of the n-1th sub-stack, due to When the n-1th stack is disconnected, only the nth sub-stack is connected to the DC bus, so the resistance of the nth sub-stack is equal to the insulation resistance Rt of the stack n, It can be obtained directly.
[0094] Using the second insulation resistance and the third insulation resistance to determine whether the sub-stack that is disconnected again has an insulation failure includes:
[0095]Disconnecting the connection between one of the sub-stacks and the DC bus again, and obtaining the third insulation resistance RT3 of the corresponding stack formed by the sub-stacks connected to the DC bus;
[0096] According to the formula R2=Rt2*Rt3/(Rt3-Rt2), calculate and obtain the resistance R2 of the sub-stack that is disconnected from the DC bus again;
[0097] The resistance R2 is compared with a second preset threshold, and if the resistance is smaller than the second preset threshold, it is determined that the insulation failure of the sub-stack that is disconnected from the DC bus is determined again.
[0098] By repeating the above steps, the resistance of each remaining sub-stack can be obtained, and it can be judged whether each sub-stack has insulation failure.
[0099] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific value of the "second preset threshold", which needs to be selected according to specific calculations based on actual applications.
[0100] In an embodiment of the present application, detecting whether each sub-stack is insulated includes: selecting any sub-stack as the current sub-stack, controlling the connection between the current sub-stack and the DC bus, and disconnecting the remaining sub-stacks. The connection between the electric stack and the DC bus, so that the electric stack is only composed of the current sub-stacks, the insulation resistance of the electric stack is detected, and if the insulation resistance of the electric stack is less than the second preset threshold, it is determined that the current The sub-stack insulation failure; the second preset threshold is used to judge whether a single sub-stack has an insulation failure fault. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific value of the "second preset threshold", which needs to be based The actual application is selected for specific calculation.
[0101] In an embodiment of the application, the fault operation mode includes:
[0102] Obtain the number of sub-stacks in normal operation;

[0105] It should be noted that: in the fault operation mode, when the required output power of the electric stack is greater than the current maximum output power of the electric stack, in order to ensure that the actual output power of the electric stack will not exceed the required output power of the electric stack The current maximum output power of the stack, the stack will match the required output power of the stack with the current maximum output power of the stack, so that the actual output power of the stack is equal to the current maximum output power of the stack, and according to the stack The current maximum output power adjusts the flow, pressure and temperature of air, the flow, pressure and temperature of gas, the flow, pressure and temperature of water, and the output current of the stack to ensure that the actual output power of the stack is the same as the current output power of the stack. The maximum output power is the same, where the water is deionized water.
[0106] In the fault operation mode, when the required output power of the electric stack is not greater than the current maximum output power of the electric stack, the flow, pressure and temperature of the air, the flow, pressure and temperature of the gas are adjusted according to the required output power of the electric stack. temperature, water flow, pressure and temperature, and the output current of the stack to ensure that the actual output power of the stack is the same as the required output power of the stack.

[0108] It should be noted that the power electronic switch can be connected in series between the sub-stack and the positive pole of the DC bus, or between the sub-stack and the negative pole of the DC bus. The power electronic switch is used to control the connection and disconnection of the sub-stack and the DC bus, so as to control whether the sub-stack is working, specifically to control whether the sub-stack is outputting current.
[0109] The power electronic switch may be an IGBT, a MOS tube, a silicon carbide tube, or the like.

The anodes of the two power diodes are connected to the cathodes of the DC bus.
[0111] It should be noted that if there is no power diode to isolate the positive and negative poles of the sub-stacks, and there is a voltage difference between the sub-stacks, then the sub-stacks with high voltage will charge the sub-stacks with low voltage, resulting in damage to the inside of the electric stack, and by connecting a power diode in series between the positive pole of each sub-stack and the positive pole of the DC bus, and connecting a power diode in series between the negative pole of each sub-stack and the negative pole of the DC bus It can prevent the sub-stacks with high voltage from charging the sub-stacks with low voltage, and avoid the mutual influence between different sub-stacks due to voltage differences, thereby protecting the stacks and prolonging the life of the stacks.

Therefore, after the insulation failure of the sub-stack is judged, it is necessary to locate the sub-stack with the insulation failure and connect the sub-stack with the failure. The connection of the DC bus is disconnected, that is, the sub-stacks with insulation failures are stopped from working, and then the sub-stacks are put into a fault operation mode to protect the sub-stacks with insulation failures.

The excitation pulse is generated inside the insulation detector, and positive and negative pulses are generated between the high-voltage system and the vehicle body, thereby forming a positive and negative pulse response signal. When the insulation resistance of the measured object is different, the response signal and the measured object show a certain mathematical relationship, so that the insulation resistance of the measured object can be calculated, that is, the insulation resistance of the stack.
[0124] The principle of the unbalanced bridge method is:
