The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0058] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] It should be noted that the system loop matching design method provided in the embodiments of the present invention is generally executed by a server / terminal device, and correspondingly, the system loop matching design device is generally set in the server / terminal device.

[0060] It should be understood that the number of terminal devices, networks, and servers is merely illustrative. Depending on implementation needs, any number of terminal devices, networks, and servers can be used.

[0061] Example 1

[0062] Continue to refer Figure 1 The flowchart illustrates an embodiment of the system loop matching design method of the present invention. The system loop matching design method includes the following steps:

[0063] Step S1: Obtain the load parameters in the system loop.

[0064] In this embodiment, the load parameters in the system circuit include, but are not limited to, rated voltage, rated power, nominal voltage, rated current, actual voltage, thermal performance, etc.

[0065] Rated power (W) refers to the rated power of the load. Nominal voltage (V) refers to the open-circuit output voltage, that is, the voltage without any load connected, which is generally the rated voltage of the battery pack. Actual voltage (V) refers to the voltage actually applied to the electrical load, which is generally the actual operating voltage of the battery pack.

[0066] Figure 2 This is a system architecture diagram for implementing the system loop matching design method of this invention. (Example) Figure 2 As shown, the system architecture implementing the system loop matching design method of this invention includes a PDU power distribution controller, a power battery module electrically connected to the PDU power distribution controller, a DC charging port, an on-board charger, a PTC heater, an electric compressor, a motor controller, fuses, wires, and electrical equipment. The power distribution unit (PDU) is responsible for power distribution and management in the high-voltage system solution. It electrically connects high-voltage components through busbars and wiring harnesses, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle's high-voltage system. The main functions of the PDU include charge / discharge control, high-voltage component power-on control, circuit overload and short-circuit protection, high-voltage sampling, and low-voltage control. These functions work together to protect and monitor the operation of the high-voltage system, ensuring the vehicle operates safely and stably under various operating conditions. The fuse melts and cuts off the current when the current abnormally rises to a certain level and temperature, thus protecting the circuit's safe operation. The wires are the carriers of current transmission, responsible for effectively transmitting the electrical energy generated by the power source to various electrical devices, ensuring the normal operation of the entire circuit system. The electrical equipment is responsible for executing vehicle functions.

[0067] In this embodiment, step S1, obtaining the load parameters in the system loop, may further include the following steps:

[0068] S11. Determine the load type.

[0069] Identify the type of load in the circuit, such as whether it is a resistive, inductive, or capacitive load. Different types of loads have different effects on the performance of the circuit.

[0070] S12. Confirm the circuit operating current.

[0071] Use tools such as a power analyzer to measure the actual operating current, stall current, stall time, and other parameters in the circuit.

[0072] S13. Incorporate the measured and confirmed load type, operating current, locked rotor current, and locked rotor time parameters into the ICD table to achieve load parameter management. Step S2: Calculate the load current based on the load parameters.

[0073] In this embodiment, step S2, calculating the load current based on the load parameters, specifically includes the following steps:

[0074] Calculate the ratio of rated power to nominal voltage to obtain the first ratio;

[0075] Calculate the ratio of the actual voltage to the nominal voltage to obtain the second ratio;

[0076] The product of the first ratio and the second ratio is the load current.

[0077] Step S3: Select a fuse, define the temperature rating, and select the cable diameter based on the load current.

[0078] In this embodiment, step S3, selecting a fuse based on the load current, defining the temperature rating, and selecting the cable diameter may further include the following steps:

[0079] S31. Select a fuse with a rated current greater than the load current based on the load current.

[0080] Select a fuse with a rated current greater than the load current based on the load current to ensure that the fuse will not trip accidentally under normal operating conditions.

[0081] S32. Select the temperature resistance rating of the conductor according to the characteristics of the working environment.

[0082] The characteristics of the working environment include the cabin, cockpit, chassis, etc., which requires consideration of the wire material, insulation performance, and temperature stability during long-term operation.

[0083] S33. Select the conductor diameter based on the assessment results of circuit temperature rise and conductor smoke risk.

[0084] The selection of wire diameter should ensure that the wire will not overheat under normal operating conditions and can meet the load current requirements. For high current protection, the selected fuse should have the following performance characteristics:

[0085] It can meet the system protection requirements under normal operating conditions of electrical appliances; it can withstand instantaneous high current and high pulse during the operation of electrical appliances; it can meet the actual operating temperature requirements of the vehicle; and it meets the requirements of the vehicle's life cycle.

[0086] The rated current of a fuse is usually based on the ambient temperature. To meet the actual operating conditions of electric vehicles, the rated current needs to be adjusted. Factors typically considered include temperature, heat conduction, cooling, and operating frequency. The rated current If of the fuse is calculated as follows:

[0087] If ≥ In / (Kt × Ke × Kv × Kf).

[0088] Where In is the rated load current of the circuit where the fuse is located, Kt is the temperature correction factor, Ke is the thermal conductivity factor of the connecting device, Kv is the air cooling correction factor, and Kf is the frequency correction factor.

[0089] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the temperature factor correction curve. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the temperature coefficient is an important characteristic of fuses, referring to the degree to which the melting point of a fuse changes with temperature. Generally speaking, the higher the temperature, the weaker the fuse's withstand capability.

[0090] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the thermal conductivity factor curve of the connecting device. For example... Figure 4 As shown, the thermal conductivity factor is an important parameter describing the thermal conductivity of a material, determining the efficiency of heat transfer within the material per unit time. For fuses, a certain amount of heat is generated during operation. If the thermal conductivity factor is low, the efficiency of heat transfer within the fuse will decrease, leading to an increase in the internal temperature and potentially causing fuse damage.

[0091] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the air-cooled correction factor curve. For example... Figure 5 As shown, when a fuse is in operation, it generates heat due to the flow of current. If the fuse is installed in a well-ventilated environment, external airflow can effectively carry away this heat, thus keeping the fuse temperature within a relatively low and safe range. In this case, the air-cooling factor is high, and the fuse has good durability.

[0092] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the frequency factor correction curve. For example... Figure 6 As shown, the frequency factor reflects the frequency characteristics of a fuse during operation, including the number of current cycles it withstands. In environments with high operating frequencies, the fuse needs to withstand more current cycles. This causes the internal materials of the fuse to experience more thermal stress, accelerating the aging and damage of the fuse.

[0093] In practice, after the initial selection of the fuse is completed, the fuse itself is tested for life and overload to achieve the final design state.

[0094] When defining the temperature resistance rating of conductor insulation sheaths, it is considered that the thermal radiation effect on the insulation material mainly comes from the ambient temperature of the cable's operating environment and the temperature rise caused by the current flowing through the cable. Therefore, the current carrying capacity of the conductor is limited by the ambient temperature. When the conductor temperature exceeds the allowable value, the insulation material will age rapidly, thus failing to guarantee safe use within the design life. The conductor's durability performance must meet at least 3000 hours, and its short-term aging performance must meet at least 240 hours.

[0095] The temperature resistance ratings of high-voltage conductor insulation and sheathing materials are detailed in Table 1.

[0096] Table 1

[0097] Insulation materials Sheath material Temperature resistance level PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) +260℃ FEP (Fluoropropyl propylene rubber) FEP (Fluoropropyl propylene rubber) +205℃ XL-ETFE (crosslinked ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer) XL-ETFE (crosslinked ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer) +200℃ Silicone Silicone +180℃ ETFE (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer) ETFE (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer) +155℃ Irradiated cross-linked polyethylene Irradiated cross-linked polyethylene +150℃ PET (Polyterephthalic Acid) PET (Polyterephthalic Acid) +130℃ XLPO (crosslinked polyolefin) XLPO (crosslinked polyolefin) +125℃ TPE PUR (Polyurethane) +120℃ PVC / HFFR (Polyvinyl Chloride) PVC / HFFR +105℃ XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) XLPE +90℃ HDPE (High-density polyethylene) HDPE +80℃ LDPE (Low-density polyethylene) LDPE +70℃

[0098] Regarding the temperature resistance rating of materials, vehicles are divided into several temperature zones according to different operating temperatures. The operating ambient temperatures of common new energy vehicle models are shown in Table 2 below:

[0099] Table 2

[0100] New energy vehicle types Operating ambient temperature pure electric -40℃~60℃ PHEV -40℃~150℃

[0101] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a high-voltage conductor structure, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the common high-voltage conductor structure, from the inside out, consists of: conductor, insulation layer, inner lining filling layer, shielding layer, and outer sheath layer.

[0102] In terms of the number of cores, conductors are divided into single-core conductors and multi-core conductors. The selection of conductors generally takes into account the space and cost of the conductor itself. Multi-core double-shielded conductors with a cross-sectional area of ​​6mm2 and below are mostly used (the shielding layer is required to be 360°, tinned copper braid, and the braiding density should be ≥85%), while single-core double-shielded conductors are mostly used for conductors with a cross-sectional area of ​​6mm2 and above.

[0103] The current-carrying capacity of a conductor is calculated by considering that when current flows through the conductor, the conductor will generate heat, causing the conductor temperature to rise. Since the ambient temperature is relatively low, the conductor temperature will remain constant when the rate of temperature rise is roughly the same as the rate of heat dissipation from the conductor to the surrounding environment. At this point, the conductor temperature minus the ambient temperature is the temperature rise that the conductor can withstand.

[0104] According to Joule's law, the heat generated in a conductor when an electric current flows is: Q = I 2 rt, where Q represents heat in joules (J), I represents current in amperes (A), r represents resistance in ohms (Ω), and t represents time in seconds (s).

[0105] Some of the generated heat is stored within the conductor and insulation material, while the remainder is dissipated outwards through conduction, gradually transferring to the surface of the conductor's outer sheath. Due to thermal resistance between the conductor and insulation, between insulation and sheath, and between the sheath and the surrounding environment, the conductor temperature will rise. Simultaneously, because the ambient temperature is relatively low, creating a temperature difference, heat will diffuse outwards from the high-temperature area.

[0106] The formula for heat diffusion in a conductor is: Q = (T1 - T2)t / R, and the formula for calculating the temperature rise of the conductor is: T1 - T2 = I. 2 rR, where T1 represents the temperature rating of the conductor in °C, T2 represents the ambient temperature of the conductor in °C, I represents the rated current passing through the conductor in amperes (A), r represents the thermal resistance of the conductor at a certain temperature in ohms (Ω), and R represents the thermal resistance of the conductor in °C·m / W.

[0107] The current that the conductor can withstand at its maximum permissible operating temperature is:

[0108] The formula for calculating the DC resistance r of a conductor is: r = r20[1 + 0.003939(T1 - 20°)], where r20 represents the DC resistance of the conductor at 20°C, and the unit is Ω / m.

[0109] Calculation of AC resistance r1 of a conductor: The AC resistance of a conductor at its highest temperature is usually given by the following formula: r1 = r(1 + ys + yp), where ys represents the skin effect factor and yp represents the proximity effect factor. Where: f is the power supply frequency, k s See Table 3 below. Considering the layout environment of electric vehicles, yp can be ignored.

[0110] Table 3

[0111] Wire type Ks Kp Twisted wire 1 0.8 Tightly pressed round strand 1 0.8 Dividing circle line 0.435 0.37 Spiral strand 0.9 0.8 sector line 1 0.8

[0112] In calculating the thermal resistance of a conductor, the thermal resistance comprises two parts: the thermal resistance of the conductor itself and the external thermal resistance. The thermal resistance of the conductor itself depends on the conductor's structure and the thermal resistivity of its materials. It generally consists of the thermal resistance per unit length of the conductor insulation (R1), the thermal resistance per unit length of the inner lining layer (R2), the thermal resistance per unit length of the sheath (R3), and the thermal resistance per unit length between the conductor surface and the surrounding medium (R4).

[0113] R = R1 + n[(1 + λ1)R2 + (1 + λ1 + λ2)R2 + R3], where n is the number of current-carrying conductors, λ1 is the ratio of the inner sheath loss to the total loss of all conductors, and λ2 is the ratio of the outer sheath loss to the total loss of all conductors. λ1 and λ2 are only used for AC calculations.

[0114] The thermal resistance R1 of the insulation layer can be calculated using the following formula: Where R1 represents the thermal resistance per unit length of insulation, ρ T The value represents the thermal resistance coefficient of the insulating material, D1 represents the outer diameter of the insulation in mm, and d1 represents the outer diameter of the conductor.

[0115] The thermal resistivity of the insulating material can be referenced in Table 4 below.

[0116] Table 4

[0117]

[0118]

[0119] The thermal resistance R2 of the inner lining can be calculated using the following formula: Where R2 represents the thermal resistance of the liner, ρ TD1 represents the thermal resistance coefficient of the insulation material, D2 represents the outer diameter of the inner lining layer in mm, and d2 represents the outer diameter of the multi-core insulation.

[0120] The thermal resistance R3 of the sheath layer can be calculated using the following formula: Where R3 represents the thermal resistance per unit length of the sheath, ρ T D3 represents the thermal resistance coefficient of the insulation material, D3 represents the outer diameter of the sheath in mm, and d3 represents the outer diameter of the shield.

[0121] The thermal resistance R4 of the conductor surface can be calculated using the following formula: Where R4 represents the thermal resistance of the conductor surface and D3 represents the outer diameter of the sheath, in mm.

[0122] Calculations are performed to determine whether the conductor meets the load-carrying requirements.

[0123] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the matching curve between the conductor and the fuse. For example... Figure 8 As shown, under the same current conditions, the smoke emission time of the conductor should be longer than the melting time of the fuse.

[0124] Step S4: Based on the selected fuse, the defined temperature resistance rating, and the selected cable diameter, perform an overcurrent matching check to determine whether the overcurrent matching check passes. If it does, perform a temperature rise check.

[0125] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, step S4, based on the selected fuse, the defined temperature resistance rating, and the selected cable diameter, performs an overcurrent matching check and determines whether the overcurrent matching check passes. If it does, a temperature rise check is performed. This may further include the following steps:

[0126] S41. Determine the characteristics of the fuse.

[0127] Before determining the characteristics of a fuse, a database of characteristics for various types of fuses can be established. When it is necessary to determine the characteristics of a fuse, the fuse model can be used as the search keyword to search the database and obtain the fuse characteristics, including its rated current, fusing current and other key parameters.

[0128] S42. Analyze system overcurrent.

[0129] Based on the system's design and operating conditions, analyze the maximum possible overcurrent.

[0130] S43. Current matching judgment.

[0131] The fusing current of the fuse is compared with the maximum possible overcurrent in the system. If the fusing current is greater than or equal to the maximum overcurrent, the overcurrent matching check is considered to have passed.

[0132] Step S5: Determine whether the temperature rise check passes. If it does, proceed to the smoke generation time check; otherwise, proceed to step S3.

[0133] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, step S5, determining whether the temperature rise verification passes, if yes, then performing a smoke generation time verification; otherwise, proceeding to step S3, may further include the following steps:

[0134] S51. Determine the operating current of the circuit based on the design and operating conditions of the electrical system. S52. Obtain the DC resistance and thermal resistance parameters of the conductors.

[0135] Before obtaining the DC resistance and thermal resistance parameters of a conductor, a database of these parameters can be established based on different conductor types. When the DC resistance and thermal resistance parameters of a conductor are needed, the conductor type can be used as a keyword to search the database and obtain the relevant parameters.

[0136] S53. Substitute the known operating current, DC resistance of the conductor, and thermal resistance parameters into the formula to perform calculations. Based on the calculation results, evaluate whether the temperature rise of the circuit meets the requirements.

[0137] If the temperature rise in the circuit is lower than the temperature that the conductor can withstand, the temperature rise check is considered to have passed.

[0138] Smoke generation time under overload conditions: During the operation of electrical appliances (e.g., inductive loads), there are pulse currents and surge currents. When the current passing through the conductor is higher than its rated current, it is necessary to determine whether the smoke generation time of the conductor is greater than the fuse blowing time, and the impact on the aging of the conductor itself. Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram showing the smoke generation time under conductor overload current, as shown below. Figure 9 As shown, under the same conditions, the fuse breaking current should be less than the clearance overcurrent at the start of smoke in the conductor. The required time must be less than the time it takes for the conductor to start smoking; this design theory is consistent with low-voltage lines. By using the electrical parameter attribute table of the appliance, the overload percentage and duration that the fuse can withstand are determined, and the time and clearance overcurrent that cause the conductor to smoke under overload conditions are calculated.

[0139] The formula for calculating the smoke generation time under conductor overload current is as follows: T1 - T2 = I 2 rR(1-e-at), where, Where t is the time when smoke begins to appear, T1 is the conductor temperature at the time of smoke appearance, and a is the reciprocal of the thermal constant. Q is the heat capacity, Q = ncSa, Sa is the cross-sectional area of ​​the conductor, and c is the heat capacity coefficient of the conductor.

[0140] Step S6: Determine whether the smoke generation time verification is passed. If so, conduct electrical performance testing for confirmation.

[0141] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, step S6, determining whether the smoke generation time verification passes, and if so, performing electrical performance testing for confirmation, may further include the following steps:

[0142] S61. Determine the conductor temperature when the wire emits smoke.

[0143] The smoking temperature of a conductor is usually a specific temperature threshold. When the temperature of the conductor reaches or exceeds this threshold, the conductor may begin to smoke.

[0144] S62. Confirm the thermal constant of the conductor.

[0145] The thermal constant of a conductor is a parameter that describes the thermal response characteristics of a conductor. It involves factors such as the thermal conductivity, heat capacity, and heat exchange with the surrounding environment of the conductor material.

[0146] S63. Based on the known smoke temperature and thermal constant of the conductor, calculate the time required for the conductor to reach the smoke temperature.

[0152] Example 2

[0153] This embodiment uses high-voltage electrical equipment as an example for illustration. The electrical parameters are shown in Table 5:

[0154] Table 5

[0155]

[0156] The first step is to select the appropriate fuse.

[0157] The rated operating current of the electrical equipment is 21A. According to the fuse selection method:

[0158] If≥In / (Kt×Ke×Kv×Kf)=21 / 0.9*0.85*1*1=27.45A;

[0159] Therefore, the Little 30A high-voltage fuse was initially selected.

[0160] Relative to I 2 Verification: During compressor operation, pulse currents occur, and the fuse must withstand a sufficient number of pulses. Therefore, a relative I is introduced. 2 t = pulse current I 2 t / fuse breaking current I 2 The impact of t on insured life is shown in Table 6.

[0161] Pulse current I 2 t = 602 * 0.0001 = 0.36. For 30A insurance, according to Table 6, I... 2 t = 993. Relative to I²t = 0.36 / 993 = 0.03%, it can withstand more than 1,000,000 impacts.

[0162] Table 6

[0163] Fuse capacity <![CDATA[Life curve (A2S)]]> 10A 255 15A 133 20A 268 30A 993 40A 1495

[0164] Overload verification: According to the electrical parameters, there is a peak current of 60A during the operation of the electric compressor, which lasts for 100μS. Under 200% overload (see Table 7 below), the fuse blows in a minimum of 0.5s, which is much longer than the operating duration of the compressor and meets the design requirements.

[0165] Table 7

[0166]

[0167] The second step is to select the appropriate wire type.

[0168] Based on the electrical parameters, the maximum continuous operating current of the compressor is 31A. According to the selection principle, a 2×2.5mm² multi-core double-layer shielded wire (temperature resistance rating 180℃) is initially selected.

[0169] (1) Calculation of relevant parameter values

[0170] ① DC resistance of conductor

[0171] r = r20[1 + 0.003939(T1 - 20°)]

[0172] =0.0078×[1+0.00393(180-20)]=0.0127Ω.

[0173] ② Thermal resistance of insulation layer R1

[0174]

[0175] ③Inner lining thermal resistance R2

[0176]

[0177] ④ Thermal resistance of the sheath layer R3

[0178]

[0179] ⑤ Calculation of surface heat dissipation thermal resistance R4

[0180]

[0181] The thermal resistance of a conductor is R = R1 + n[(1 + λ1)R2 + (1 + λ1 + λ2)R2 + R3]

[0182] =24.68+2×(74.80+19.33+195.48)=603.9(Ω).

[0183] (2) Calculation of rated current carrying capacity of cable

[0184] ① When the ambient temperature of the conductor is 60℃, the current that the cable can carry is:

[0185]

[0186] ② When the ambient temperature of the conductor is 90℃, the current that the cable can withstand is:

[0187]

[0188] ③ When the ambient temperature of the conductor is 120℃, the current that the cable can withstand is:

[0189]

[0190] (3) Temperature rise calculation

[0191] When electrical equipment is in continuous operation, the temperature rise of the conductor is as follows:

[0192] The temperature rise requirement is met.

[0193] (4) Overload verification

[0194] During operation, the compressor's peak operating current is 60A for 100μS, while the fuse's longest blowing time under 200% overload is 100s.

[0195] Therefore, the smoke generation time of a 2×2.5mm² wire under a 60A peak current is:

[0196]

[0197] The relevant parameters for calculating 2×2.5mm² multi-core conductors are as follows:

[0198]

[0199] It is evident that the smoke emission time of the conductor under overload is 66.13 seconds, which does not meet the design requirements. Therefore, a 2×4mm² cross-sectional area conductor needs to be selected for further design verification.

[0200] (5) Select a 2×4mm² cross-sectional area wire.

[0201] ① DC resistance of conductor

[0202] r = r20[1 + 0.00393(T1 - 20℃)]

[0203] =0.0048×[1+0.00393(180-20)]=0.00781Ω.

[0204] ② Thermal resistance of insulation layer R1

[0205]

[0206] ③Inner lining thermal resistance R2

[0207]

[0208] ④ Thermal resistance of the sheath layer R3

[0209]

[0210] ⑤ Calculation of surface heat dissipation thermal resistance R3

[0211]

[0212] The thermal resistance of a conductor is R = R1 + n[(1 + λ1)R2 + (1 + λ1 + λ2)R2 + R3]

[0213] =20.65+2×(81.93+7.44+187.12)=573.63(Ω).

[0214] ⑥ Overload verification

[0215] 2×4mm 2 The smoke emission time of a conductor with a wire diameter of 60A under peak current conditions is as follows:

[0216]

[0217]

[0218] The relevant parameters for calculating 2×4mm² multi-core conductors are as follows:

[0219]
