Moreover, the terms "vehicle," "automobile," or other similar terms herein include general motor vehicles, such as passenger cars (including SUVs, buses, trucks, etc.), various commercial vehicles, ships, aircraft, etc., and include hybrid electric vehicles, electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, etc. A hybrid electric vehicle is a vehicle having two or more power sources, such as a gasoline-powered and an electric vehicle.

[0028] In the following, various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Figure 1 A power system 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The power system includes a battery 110, a motor 120, a heat transfer component 130, and a control device 140.

[0030] The motor 120 is powered by the battery 110 (e.g., via high-voltage line 150), and the heat loss generated by the motor 120 can be transferred to the battery 110 via the heat transfer component 130 to heat the battery 110.

[0031] The control device 140 has a first operating mode (e.g., heating mode).

In the second operating mode, the control device 140 controls the d-axis current i of the motor 120. d Without considering heating the battery. For example, control device 140 can use a maximum torque-to-current ratio control method to control the d-axis current i of motor 120. d This allows the motor to achieve higher efficiency without considering the battery heating requirement. Therefore, the control device 140 provides a flexible motor control scheme: when heating the battery 110 is required, the first operating mode can be used to increase the heat loss of the motor 120 to heat the battery 110; when heating the 110 is not required, the second operating mode can be used to make the motor operate efficiently.

[0046] The heat loss of the motor includes the stator equivalent phase resistance R. s The resulting heat loss and the equivalent phase resistance R of electronic devices inv The resulting heat loss is due to both.

[0047] Similarly, if the d-axis current mode of the motor is negative DC mode, then in order for the heat loss generated by the motor 120 to provide heating power P to the battery 110 via the heat transfer component 130, heat The d-axis current i of motor 120 can be... d Control is as follows:

The control device can be a dedicated controller for the motor, or it can be integrated into other electronic control units (ECUs) or domain control units (DCUs) of the vehicle.

[0069] Figure 2 A motor control method 2000 according to an embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. The motor control method 2000 is used to control the d-axis current i of a motor (e.g., a permanent magnet synchronous motor). d The motor is powered by a battery, and the heat transfer components can transfer the heat generated by the motor to the battery to heat it.

[0070] Motor control method 2000 includes a first operating mode M210 (e.g., heating mode). In the first operating mode M210: the d-axis current i of the motor is controlled. d This allows the heat loss generated by the motor to provide a predetermined heating power P to the battery. heat Among them, the d-axis current i d This can be based at least on the equivalent phase resistance R of the motor's heat loss. sum The operating mode of the motor and the predetermined heating power P heatThe motor control method 2000, in its first operating mode M210, can provide the specified heating power to the battery using only heat transfer components, without the need for additional heat pump equipment, electric heating equipment, etc. This significantly reduces the equipment cost and floor space required for battery heating, and eliminates the need for additional circuitry for battery heating, especially high-voltage circuitry.

It should be noted that the motor control method 2000 can also employ any other suitable current control scheme without considering battery heating in the second operating mode M220. Therefore, the motor control method 2000 includes two operating modes to control the d-axis current i of the motor. d When the battery needs to be heated, motor control method 2000 controls the d-axis current i in the first operating mode M210. d To provide the specified heating power to the battery; and when the battery does not need heating, the motor control method 2000 controls the d-axis current i in other ways under the second operating mode M220. d This, for example, enables the motor to have higher efficiency relative to the first operating mode M210.

The motor can be any motor capable of being powered by a battery and controlled by the d-axis current i. dA motor that provides a specified amount of heat to the battery via a heat transfer component. The motor can be a salient-pole motor, a non-salient-pole motor, or any motor with a suitable structure. The heat transfer component can be a heat exchange pipe connecting the battery and the motor, through which coolant flows. The coolant can be water or any other suitable liquid with cooling properties. The motor operates in two modes: a static mode and a dynamic mode. In static mode, the motor outputs zero torque, and therefore does not require the motor to output mechanical energy. In dynamic mode, the motor outputs non-zero torque, and therefore outputs mechanical energy to the outside. The equivalent phase resistance R for heat loss is also considered. sum Including the equivalent phase resistance R of the motor stator s The equivalent phase resistance R of electronic devices inv The predetermined heating power P heat It can be calculated based on actual heating needs, determined based on empirical values, received from the battery, received from other controllers (e.g., other electronic control units (ECUs) or domain control units (DCUs) in the vehicle), or manually input, etc.

[0074] In the first operating mode M210 of the motor control method 2000, when the motor's operating mode is static (i.e., the motor does not need to output mechanical energy), the equivalent phase resistance R of the heat loss can be used as a basis. sum and the predetermined heating power P heat The d-axis current i is determined by the following formula. d :

[0075]

[0076] The d-axis current i is determined according to the above formula. d To control the motor, enabling the motor to generate power P heat The heat loss can be transferred to the battery via heat transfer components, providing the battery with power P. heat Heating power.

[0078]

[0079] In other words, it can be based on the equivalent phase resistance R of heat loss. sum Predetermined heating power P heat Electromagnetic torque T eThe d-axis current i is determined by the mechanical rotation speed Ω. d .

[0080] It should be noted that the above descriptions do not account for energy losses during heat transfer. However, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that actual heat transfer will involve certain energy losses depending on the specific operating conditions, which will be considered when calculating the d-axis current i. d They will be compensated accordingly.

In this case, the motor makes a trade-off between high efficiency and heating the battery. When the ambient temperature is within the battery's operating temperature range, the control of the d-axis current can be switched to a normal mode (i.e., the second operating mode described above), so that the motor maintains high energy efficiency.
