Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery status monitoring, and in particular to a battery evaluation computer system and method based on multi-modal features. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of global energy transformation, high energy density storage devices such as lithium-ion batteries and solid-state batteries are widely used in electric vehicles, renewable energy storage systems, aerospace and other fields. However, batteries undergo complex physical and chemical changes during cyclic use, including the shedding of electrode active materials, electrolyte decomposition, lithium dendrite growth, internal micro-short circuits, etc. These changes may lead to capacity decay, increased internal resistance, thermal runaway and even explosion. Therefore, high-precision real-time evaluation and early warning of battery status have become core issues that the industry needs to solve urgently.

[0003] Limitations of single-modality inspection methods Electrochemical parameter method: The traditional method evaluates the battery state of health (SOH) by monitoring parameters such as voltage, current, and internal resistance (EIS), and proposes a SOH calculation model based on the capacity decay rate. However, the change of electrochemical parameters usually lags behind the physical damage inside the battery. Experiments show that when the capacity decay reaches 5%, the lithium dendrites may have grown to a critical length (>50 μm), but at this time the internal resistance changes by only about 3%, which is difficult to trigger an effective warning.

[0004] Temperature monitoring method: Use an infrared thermal imager to monitor the temperature distribution on the battery surface. However, temperature changes are usually the last stage signal before thermal runaway occurs, and early intervention cannot be achieved.

[0005] Deformation detection method: Battery expansion is detected through pressure sensors, but traditional strain gauges have insufficient accuracy (±10 με) and anti-electromagnetic interference capabilities, and cannot distinguish between thermal expansion and mechanical deformation.

[0006] Disadvantages of multimodal fusion technology The few existing multimodal solutions have the following defects: Single sensor type: only integrates electrochemical and thermal data, lacks the capture of key features such as internal mechanical deformation and gas precipitation; The feature fusion algorithm is simple: it uses the linear weighted average method to allocate weights, ignoring the nonlinear correlation and information entropy differences between different features, resulting in low reliability of the fusion result; Poor real-time performance: The data acquisition frequency is low (usually ≤1 Hz), and it is impossible to capture transient abnormal signals during the battery charging and discharging process.

[0007] Application bottleneck of high-end detection technology Although laboratory-level detection methods can analyze the microscopic structural changes of batteries, they have significant drawbacks: Destructive testing: The battery needs to be disassembled, making it unsuitable for online monitoring; High cost: Difficult to apply on a large scale; High latency: Data processing takes several hours, unable to support real-time decision-making.
