Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a safety assessment method, in particular to a fire ventilation and explosion venting safety assessment method for a lithium battery energy storage system based on multi-dimensional simulation. Background Art
[0002] Lithium battery energy storage systems are developing rapidly towards the megawatt-level containerized direction, but the domino effect caused by thermal runaway at the cell level has led to frequent fire and explosion accidents. Most existing simulation technologies use a one-way thermal-electric coupling model (such as the Joule Heating module of COMSOL Multiphysics), ignoring the two-phase flow impact caused by electrolyte vaporization and the bidirectional mechanical feedback of shell deformation, resulting in a prediction deviation of more than 30% in the diffusion path of thermal runaway gas. Research by the Sandia National Laboratories in the United States in 2023 showed that the traditional thermal runaway prediction model based on the Arrhenius equation has an early warning response time error of 8 - 12 seconds in module-level applications due to the lack of consideration of the lithium deposition autocatalytic effect of aged cells, and cannot meet the stringent requirements of the NFPA 855 standard for millisecond-level linkage of explosion venting systems.
[0003] There are significant limitations in the current failure scenario construction methods: on the one hand, the analysis of historical case data relies on manual feature extraction (such as the voltage sudden drop threshold method), making it difficult to capture the non-linear failure trajectories of multi-parameter coupling; on the other hand, the random scenarios generated by the traditional Monte Carlo method lack physical constraints, resulting in more than 40% of the amplified scenarios violating Fourier's law of heat conduction. For example, the static explosion venting area calculation formula (A = 0.07×Q^0.5) used in the Tesla Megapack system has an error of up to 45% in a low-temperature and high-humidity environment, exposing the adaptability defects of empirical formulas under complex boundary conditions.
[0004] There is a "data island" problem in the existing safety assessment system: the BMS operation data, multi-physical field simulation results, and fire protection system parameters lack dynamic coupling. The thermal runaway suppression test in the UL 9540A standard still uses a constant temperature boundary condition, without considering the spatio-temporal coupling effect of temperature gradient and air pressure fluctuation during actual operation, resulting in a virtual marking rate of up to 22% for the coverage rate of the sprinkler system. German certification cases in 2022 showed that the explosion venting systems evaluated by traditional methods had a failure rate of up to 17% in real thermal runaway due to pressure feedback delay, highlighting the difficulty of existing technologies in meeting the precise protection requirements of high-dynamic risk scenarios. Summary of the Invention

Features such as component models, material names, connection structures, control methods, algorithms, etc. that are not clearly described in the present technical solution are regarded as common technical features disclosed in the prior art.
[0048] Embodiment 1
[0049] In the fire ventilation and explosion relief safety assessment method for a lithium battery energy storage system based on multi-dimensional simulation in this embodiment, it includes 5 steps, and the overall process is shown in Figure 1 .
[0050] S1. Construct a digital twin model of the energy storage system including structural parameters, material properties, and environmental parameters;
[0051] Specifically, it includes the following sub-steps:
[0052] The spatial layout of the battery module and the geometric features of the box structure are acquired through 3D point cloud scanning, and a parametric geometric model is established;
[0053] Integrate the pyrolysis kinetic parameters of battery material, the melting temperature threshold of the separator and the volatility data of the electrolyte to build a multi-level material property database;
[0054] Then, temperature and humidity sensors and gas concentration detectors are deployed to collect environmental baseline data in the energy storage cabin in real time;
[0055] Based on the multi-physics field coupling simulation platform, the structural topology data, material constitutive equations and environmental boundary conditions are dynamically coupled to obtain a digital twin model of the energy storage system.
[0056] Step S1 of the present invention constructs a digital twin model through multi-dimensional data fusion and dynamic coupling modeling technology. The principle is as follows: first, the geometric features of the battery module are reversely reconstructed through three-dimensional point cloud scanning, and the mechanical structure features (such as bolt preload and module spacing) are converted into adjustable variables using parametric modeling technology to solve the problem of structural parameter distortion in traditional simulation; secondly, the material pyrolysis kinetic parameters (such as activation energy and pre-exponential factor in the Arrhenius equation) and the critical threshold of phase change (membrane melting temperature T_m, electrolyte flash point T_f) are integrated to construct a multi-level material property digital twin model. The database provides basic data of constitutive equations for multi-physics field simulation; then the environmental baseline data (temperature and humidity gradient ΔT / ΔRH, H2 / CO gas concentration) is collected in real time through a distributed sensor network to form a dynamic boundary condition input flow; finally, based on the multi-field coupling platform, the structural topology (finite element mesh), material properties (anisotropic thermal conductivity tensor K_ij) and environmental parameters (convective heat transfer coefficient h) are solved jointly, and the physical characteristics and real-time status of the digital twin model are synchronized through bidirectional data drive, establishing a high-fidelity virtual mapping space for subsequent failure simulation.
[0057] S2. Based on the digital twin model, historical failure case data is imported, and a multimodal failure scenario set is generated through pattern recognition;
[0058] It includes the following sub-steps:
[0059] Clean and format the multi-source heterogeneous data in historical failure cases, including battery module voltage / temperature time series curves, thermal runaway trigger point location information, and operation and maintenance log text records, to build a structured failure feature matrix;
[0060] Secondly, the data is injected into the SOFC state tracking module of the digital twin model through the API interface, and the multi-dimensional failure sensitive features are extracted using the time-frequency domain joint analysis method;
[0061] Then, fuse the Pearson correlation coefficient and the dynamic time warping distance to divide the failure mode categories, and establish a fault tree ontology model for the intrinsic failure mode;
[0062] Then, through the generative adversarial network (GAN), amplify the failure trajectories in the parameter space, and combine the environmental parameter perturbation factors to generate multi-modal failure scenarios covering the temperature range of -20°C to 60°C and different aging degrees.
[0063] In S2, during the failure trajectory amplification process, introduce the constraint condition of the thermal runaway gas diffusion rate to construct the physical information loss function of the generative adversarial network, and generate a subset of failure scenarios that conform to Fourier's law of heat conduction and Fick's law of diffusion, ensuring that the spatio-temporal distributions of the temperature gradient and the combustible gas concentration gradient in the amplified scenarios satisfy the actual physical laws.
[0064] In step S2 of the present invention, a failure scenario generation method that combines data-driven and physical constraints is used to realize multi-modal failure modeling. The principle is as follows: First, through data cleaning and standardization processing, align the voltage / temperature time-series signals, thermal runaway localization coordinates, and operation and maintenance texts in space-time to construct a failure feature matrix containing three-dimensional features of time-space-semantics, and solve the problem of multi-source heterogeneous data fusion; Second, embed the SOFC state tracking module in the digital twin model, and use time-frequency domain joint analysis (such as wavelet packet energy spectrum and Hilbert marginal spectrum) to extract the phase mutation features of voltage dips and the frequency domain resonance characteristics of gas products, revealing the energy transfer law during the failure process; Furthermore, quantify the failure correlation degree between battery cells through the Pearson correlation coefficient, and combine the dynamic time warping (DTW) distance to measure the failure propagation delay across modules, and construct a fault tree ontology model with causal reasoning ability; Finally, in the GAN network training, introduce the Fourier number (Fo) and Schmidt number (Sc) to construct the physical information loss function, and constrain the temperature gradient and gas concentration field to satisfy Fourier's heat conduction equation and Fick's law of diffusion, ensuring that the amplified failure scenarios conform to the actual physical evolution law in key parameters such as the thermal runaway gas diffusion rate (vd = α·ΔT / Δx), so as to generate a multi-modal failure scenario library that covers both extreme environments and retains the intrinsic physical relationships.
[0065] S3. Perform multi-physics field coupling simulation based on the failure scenario set, and execute the coupled calculation of heat-fluid-solid;
[0066] Specifically, it includes the following sub-steps:
[0067] First, establish the weak form expression of the coupled control equations of heat-fluid-solid, and adopt the partition coupling strategy to realize the fully coupled iterative calculation of the temperature field, electrolyte flow field, and structural stress field;
[0068] Based on the parametric meshing of the failure scenario set, the dynamic mesh technology is used to handle the topological changes of the contact interface caused by the expansion of the battery cell. The time step of the unsteady solver is set to 0.1 ms and the explicit integration algorithm is enabled;
[0069] In the thermal field module, the anisotropic thermal conductivity of the battery cell and the latent heat model of SEI film decomposition are loaded, and the finite volume method is used to solve the energy conservation equation including Joule heat and convective heat transfer;
[0070] In the fluid flow field module, the porous medium turbulence model is activated to simulate the two-phase flow migration process caused by the vaporization of the electrolyte due to heating;
[0071] In the solid mechanics module, the elastoplastic constitutive relationship of the current collector and the creep failure criterion of the separator are defined, and the ALE method is used to capture the deformation of the shell;
[0072] Based on the failure scenario set, the temperature gradient and air pressure fluctuation boundary conditions are injected, and the Newton-Raphson iteration method is used to solve the simultaneous equations until the residual is less than the preset value.
[0073] In S3, during the process of handling the dynamic mesh technology, a contact pressure feedback mechanism based on the expansion coefficient of the battery cell is established. When the volume expansion rate of the battery cell exceeds 15%, the local mesh encryption strategy is automatically triggered, and the Johnson-Cook plasticity model related to the strain rate is introduced in the shell deformation calculation to realize the two-way coupling calculation of the battery cell expansion and the shell deformation.
[0074] Step S3 of the present invention realizes the high-precision simulation of the thermal runaway evolution process through the two-way coupling and dynamic mesh adaptive technology. The principle is as follows: The partition coupling strategy is used to solve the temperature field (energy equation), fluid flow field (N-S equation) and solid mechanics field (constitutive equation) simultaneously. The two-way energy transfer path between fields is established through the weak form expression (such as Joule heat-induced temperature rise → electrolyte vaporization generates flow stress → shell deformation reacts on the thermal boundary conditions), breaking through the accuracy limitation of the traditional one-way coupling; In the dynamic mesh processing, the contact interface pressure distribution is quantified based on the expansion coefficient of the battery cell. When the local volume expansion rate δ_v≥15%, the unstructured mesh adaptive encryption is triggered, and the Johnson-Cook model is combined to describe the plastic deformation related to the strain rate of the shell to realize the two-way mechanical coupling of the battery cell-shell contact interface; At the same time, the anisotropic thermal conductivity tensor (k_θ = k_r + β(T - T_0)) is used to characterize the radial / axial differential heat transfer characteristics inside the battery, and the latent heat release term (Q = ΔH·dα / dt) is embedded in the SEI film decomposition model to accurately simulate the heat release cumulative effect of the thermal runaway chain reaction; Finally, the Newton iteration method is used to solve the nonlinear coupling equations on the parametric mesh, and the residual is converged to the order of 1e-5, ensuring that the spatio-temporal evolution of the temperature gradient field, two-phase flow field and stress field is physically consistent with the real failure process within the error range of ±8%.
[0075] S4. Construct a dynamic safety assessment matrix based on the simulation output, and generate risk quantification indicators based on this matrix;
[0076] Specifically, it includes the following sub-steps:
[0077] Integrate the multi-physical field simulation output of multi-dimensional characteristic parameters, and reduce the dimension through principal component analysis (PCA) to construct a dynamic safety assessment matrix, where the matrix dimension covers time series and spatial distribution;
[0078] Based on the Bayesian network, establish a probability graph model of the thermal runaway propagation path, and calculate the safety margin index and cascade failure risk entropy value of each node;
[0079] Adopt the improved analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to determine the dynamic weights of key indicators, and map the BMS operation data to the assessment matrix through the real-time OPC interface;
[0080] Use the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method to calculate the system-level risk quantification indicator RQI = 0.7×(temperature anomaly degree / 280°C) + 0.3×(deformation coordination coefficient), and generate a risk probability cloud map by combining Monte Carlo sampling;
[0081] Finally, through cross-validation, compare the evaluation results with the UL 9540A standard value, establish a three-dimensional risk dashboard including 4-level warning thresholds, and realize the rolling update of the risk trajectory in the next 30s based on the LSTM time series prediction module to ensure that the prediction error rate of the risk quantification indicator ≤ 5%.
[0082] In S4, when constructing the dynamic safety assessment matrix, embed a cross-dimensional feature fusion module based on the graph neural network, perform graph structure modeling on the spatial distribution characteristics of the temperature field and the voltage time series characteristics, extract the potential correlation characteristics of thermal runaway propagation between battery cells through node embedding technology, and construct a three-dimensional assessment matrix including topological relationships.
[0083] In step S4 of the present invention, risk quantification assessment is achieved through multi-modal data fusion and dynamic weight optimization, and the principle is as follows: First, principal component analysis (PCA) is used to perform orthogonal transformation on the high-dimensional features output by multi-physical fields (such as temperature gradient extreme values, stress concentration coefficients), and principal components with a contribution degree ≥ 95% are extracted to construct a spatio-temporal correlation dynamic assessment matrix, solving the problems of feature redundancy and dimensionality disaster in traditional assessments; Secondly, a heat runaway propagation probability graph model is constructed based on a Bayesian network, the failure transfer probability between adjacent battery cells is quantified through a conditional probability table (CPT), and the single-point failure risk is quantified by combining the safety margin index SMI = 1 - (σ / σ_y), and the cascade failure uncertainty is characterized by Shannon entropy H; In the improved AHP, a sliding time window is introduced to dynamically adjust the weight factor, and the SoC and SOH data of the BMS are mapped as weight update trigger conditions through a real-time OPC interface to achieve adaptive optimization of evaluation indicators; Further, a graph neural network (GNN) is embedded to construct a cross-dimensional feature fusion module, and the spatial distribution of the temperature field (grid node temperature values) and the voltage time series fluctuation (time series slope) are modeled as a heterogeneous graph structure, and the potential associated edge weights of heat runaway propagation between battery cells are extracted through a graph attention mechanism (GAT) to construct a three-dimensional evaluation matrix integrating topological relationships; Finally, a fuzzy membership function is used to quantify the non-linear relationship between temperature abnormality and deformation coordination coefficient, a risk probability distribution cloud map is generated by combining Monte Carlo sampling, and the time series evolution law of the evaluation matrix is learned through an LSTM module to achieve rolling prediction of the risk trajectory and adaptive correction of the threshold, forming a closed-loop dynamic risk assessment system.
[0084] S5. Establish a safety assessment model for the fire ventilation and explosion relief system based on the risk quantification index, and generate a safety assessment conclusion.
[0085] Specifically, it includes the following sub-steps:
[0086] Construct a comprehensive safety assessment model for the fire ventilation and explosion relief system according to the risk indicators, and quantitatively analyze the heat runaway suppression effect and gas diffusion control ability;

After the explosion relief valve acts, data on the propagation path of the shock wave is collected in real time, and the matching degree between the explosion relief air flow field and the simulation results is verified through particle image velocimetry technology, and the frequency conversion control curve of the ventilation system is dynamically corrected.
[0091] In step S5 of the present invention, an accurate generation of the safety assessment conclusion is achieved through multi-dimensional verification and a closed-loop feedback mechanism. The principle is as follows: The assessment model constructed based on risk quantification indicators performs multi-objective optimization on the thermal runaway suppression efficiency and the gas diffusion control coefficient. The influence of the layout parameters of the explosion relief valve on the pressure wave attenuation efficiency is verified through fire dynamics simulation. The correlation between the shock wave propagation path and the shell structure resonance frequency is analyzed by combining computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and the trigger pressure threshold is optimized to avoid the structural natural frequency band; in the dynamic response test, a high-speed pressure sensor array and a laser absorption spectrometer are deployed to construct a closed-loop verification system, and the pressure gradient of the explosion relief air flow field is captured in real time And the concentration distribution of combustible gases (H2 / CO), and the vorticity of the flow field is obtained through particle image velocimetry (PIV) technology And an Euler-Lagrange joint analysis is performed with the simulation results, and the frequency conversion control curve of the ventilation system is dynamically corrected (such as the fan speed-time function n(t) = f(ΔP, C_g)); finally, a three-dimensional evaluation system of the explosion relief protection efficiency index (EPI = ∫(P_peak - P_safe)dt), the temperature control response coefficient (K_T = ΔT_max / Δt), and the heat blocking aging (τ_block) is established based on the hierarchical safety conclusion.
