It is mainly used to provide a stable and uninterrupted power supply to a single computer, a computer network system or other power electronic precision equipment.

[0003] The main problems existing in existing UPS systems are as follows: (1) Existing UPS systems are generally fully enclosed, with small internal equipment layout space and compact equipment layout. Since the battery pack generates a large amount of heat during the charging and discharging process, if the heat is difficult to dissipate for a long time, it will cause damage to the internal equipment of the UPS system. How to reasonably layout the electrical equipment inside and outside the UPS system and reasonably dissipate heat is an important issue that needs to be considered in the design of the UPS system; (2) After most of the existing UPS systems are put into use, there is a lack of post-maintenance and management. The UPS system is prone to battery pack abnormalities such as battery pack overcurrent, single cell overvoltage, single cell undervoltage, battery pack total voltage difference is too large, and remaining power is too low. This greatly affects the battery life of the UPS system.

[0055] As attached Figure 3 As shown, a method for estimating the remaining power of a battery pack of a UPS system comprises the following steps:

[0056] Step S101: The battery detection module detects and obtains battery parameter information of multiple single-cell lithium batteries in the battery pack, and estimates the battery SOH value. The battery parameter information includes the battery initial voltage V and the battery nominal capacity C.

[0057] Step S102: Based on the above battery performance data, the battery detection module estimates the initial battery capacity value E through the OCV-SOC curve soc_k-1 , and correct the initial capacity value of the battery in combination with the temperature correction factor and the battery SOH value, and correct the actual discharge capacity value C according to the temperature correction factor n_I (T,S,age).

[0058] Step S103: The battery detection module samples the sampling resistor through the differential isolation sampling circuit within the sampling period T and obtains the sampling current value i of the battery pack for integral calculation to obtain the charge change ΔQ of the battery pack. i , and its calculation formula is:

[0059] Step S104: The battery detection module determines the battery charging and discharging status and calculates the charge change ΔQ i Make corrections.

[0060] In this embodiment, the battery performance data includes the battery initial voltage V, the current sampling period t, the battery nominal capacity C, the battery SOH value, the ambient temperature T and the discharge current i. Among the battery performance parameters obtained, the battery initial voltage is V = 3.9v, the battery nominal capacity C = 100Ah, and the battery health status SOH = 100%; the battery initial capacity value is estimated by the OCV-SOC curve to be E soc_k-1 =76%, the actual discharge capacity of the battery is corrected by the temperature correction factor, that is, the actual discharge capacity value of the battery C n_I (T,S,age)=72.2Ah=259920As.

[0061] In this embodiment, since the charge and discharge state of the battery is a high current discharge state, in which the current is a high current, it is necessary to introduce the Peukert coefficient P=1.05 for current correction to calculate the charge change ΔQ i =i P t=193As, where the sampling current value i=150A, and the ambient temperature T=15℃.

[0062] In this embodiment, if the temperature correction factor, Peukert coefficient and other factors are not introduced, the charge change ΔQ at time k i =it=150As, the charge change error per unit time will be as high as 22%, and the full charge capacity of the battery is C n_I =100Ah=360000As, the error reaches 5%. The error of the SOC change value calculated by the two sets of error data will exceed 26%, which will greatly affect the accuracy of capacity estimation.

[0063] In this embodiment, the initial capacity value E of SOC is used. soc_k-1 =76%, the charge change after correction ΔQ i =193As and the actual discharge capacity of the battery C n_I (T, S, age) = 72.2Ah = 259920As, iteratively calculate and output the estimated SOC value at time k, the current SOC value of the battery is calculated by the formula

[0064] Preferably, step S104 is specifically:

[0065] Step S10401: The battery detection module determines the charge and discharge status of multiple lithium batteries in the battery pack.

[0066] Step S10402: If the battery detection module determines that the battery is in a high current discharge state, the charge change ΔQ is calculated using the Peukert coefficient. i Correction, the correction formula is ΔQ i =i P t, where i is the sampled current value, t is the ambient temperature of the battery pack, and P is the Peukert coefficient.

[0067] Step S10403: If the battery detection module determines that it is in the charging state, the charge change is corrected by the coulomb efficiency. The correction formula is ΔQ i =η(i,mode)ΔQ i ′, where i is the sampled current value, t is the ambient temperature of the battery pack, and η(i,mode) is the coulomb efficiency.

[0068] Step S105: Based on the SOC initial capacity value and the corrected charge change ΔQ i The battery detection module iteratively calculates and outputs the SOC estimation value at time k, where the SOC initial capacity value is the iteration variable, and the SOC estimation value at the previous time k-1 is used as the SOC initial capacity value at the next time k. The calculation formula of the SOC estimation value is: Among them, C n_I (T,S,age) is the nominal capacity of the nth battery.

[0069] Preferably, the initial capacity value E is estimated by the OCV-SOC curve. soc_k-1 Previously, it also included:

[0070] The battery detection module tests multiple single-cell lithium batteries through a battery testing system and obtains the charge and discharge curves of the multiple single-cell lithium batteries.

[0072] According to the charge and discharge curve, the battery detection module continuously records the actual capacity value of the battery at each stage and each voltage platform, and uses the data fitting method to continuously correct the OCV-SOC curve through online self-learning.

[0073] As attached Figure 4 As shown, estimating and obtaining the battery SOH value includes the following steps:

[0074] Step S10101: The battery detection module obtains the real-time discharge amount during discharge, the discharge amount at the previous moment, the ambient temperature record value, and the number of discharges n, calculates the depth of discharge DOD and the average ambient temperature t, and further calculates the cycle life value A(x)*B(t) of the single cell.

[0075] Specifically, in this embodiment, the step includes:

[0076] The battery detection module detects and determines the charge and discharge status of the battery pack. In the discharge state, it records the battery data such as the discharge capacity, voltage, discharge times and battery ambient temperature of the single cell in real time.

[0077] The battery detection module obtains and records the power of the single cell. When the difference between the current power and the power recorded at the last moment is greater than 20%, the discharge depth DOD of the single cell begins to be calculated. The calculation method is: discharge depth DOD of the single cell = (the last recorded power - the current power) / rated capacity.

[0078] The average ambient temperature of the single cell is calculated based on the ambient temperatures of the single cell recorded multiple times during discharge.

[0079] Calculate the cycle life value A(x)*B(t) of the single cell, where x is the discharge depth DOD at the nth discharge, t is the average ambient temperature, A(x) is the cycle life, and B(t) is the life percentage; specifically, each time the number of discharges is counted, there will be a different discharge depth DOD, and the cycle life corresponding to different discharge depths DOD is different. In this embodiment, there is a linear relationship between the discharge depth DOD and the cycle life, that is, A(x)=5000-46x, etc.; and at different temperatures, the battery life will also change. In this embodiment, the ambient temperature and the life percentage are two linear relationships. When the temperature is less than 25°C, B(t)=(t+75) / 100, and when the temperature is greater than 25°C, B(t)=(160-2.4t) / 100; Through the above formula, the cycle life value A(x)*B(t) of the single cell can be calculated.

[0080] Step S10102: The battery detection module estimates the SOH of the single battery, and the estimation formula is:

[0081] The SOH of a single cell is estimated by the above method with high estimation accuracy and strong estimation stability.

[0082] In this embodiment, the battery detection module first detects and obtains battery parameter information and estimates and obtains the battery SOH value. Based on the above battery performance data, the battery detection module estimates the battery initial capacity value E soc_k-1 Then, the sampling resistor is sampled and the sampling current value i of the battery pack is obtained for integral calculation to obtain the charge change ΔQ of the battery pack. i ; Finally, according to the SOC initial capacity value and the corrected charge change ΔQ i, iteratively calculate and output the SOC estimation value at time k; through the above method, not only can the existing ampere-hour integration method and open-circuit voltage method be effectively combined to complete the estimation of the SOC value of the battery pack, effectively improving the SOC estimation accuracy and stability; but also realize the detection of various performance parameters of the battery in the UPS system, as well as the SOC estimation of the remaining power of the battery pack and the SOH estimation of the single cell, so as to achieve the purpose of monitoring the performance status of the battery pack, which is conducive to preventing the UPS system from having battery pack overcurrent, single cell overvoltage, single cell undervoltage, battery pack total voltage difference is too large, and the remaining power is too low.
