If the power battery pack has an abnormality, it will inevitably bring driving hazards, and the internal temperature and humidity are important performance indicators to ensure the safety of the power battery pack. When electric vehicles are driving in areas with large temperature differences between day and night, large humidity changes, and long rainy seasons, the battery system where the power battery pack is located is prone to condensation, and the occurrence of condensation will cause various hazards to the battery system, for example, insulation short circuit and spontaneous combustion of the battery system, causing the power battery pack to be damaged. The current relevant technologies to prevent power battery packs from being damaged are divided into two aspects.

[0052] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0053] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a control device for preventing power battery pack damage in a hardware operating environment involved in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0054] like Figure 1As shown, the control device for preventing damage to the power battery pack may include: a processor 1001, such as a central processing unit (CPU), a communication bus 1002, a user interface 1003, a network interface 1004, and a memory 1005. Among them, the communication bus 1002 is used to realize the connection and communication between these components. The user interface 1003 may include a display screen (Display), an input unit such as a keyboard (Keyboard), and the optional user interface 1003 may also include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface. The network interface 1004 may optionally include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface (such as a wireless fidelity (Wireless-Fidelity, Wi-Fi) interface). The memory 1005 may be a high-speed random access memory (RandomAccess Memory, RAM) memory, or a stable non-volatile memory (Non-Volatile Memory, NVM), such as a disk memory. The memory 1005 may also be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.

[0055] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 1 The structure shown in does not constitute a limitation on the control device for preventing damage to the power battery pack, and may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or a combination of certain components, or a different arrangement of components.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the memory 1005 as a storage medium may include an operating system, a network communication module, a user interface module, and a control program for preventing the power battery pack from being damaged.

[0057] exist Figure 1 In the control device for preventing power battery pack damage shown, the network interface 1004 is mainly used for data communication with the network integration platform workstation; the user interface 1003 is mainly used for data interaction with the user; the processor 1001 and the memory 1005 in the control device for preventing power battery pack damage of the present invention can be arranged in the control device for preventing power battery pack damage, and the control device for preventing power battery pack damage calls the control program for preventing power battery pack damage stored in the memory 1005 through the processor 1001, and executes the control method for preventing power battery pack damage provided in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0058] Based on the above hardware structure, an embodiment of a control method for preventing a power battery pack from being damaged is proposed in the present invention.

[0059] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a first embodiment of a control method for preventing a power battery pack from being damaged according to the present invention.

[0060] In a first embodiment, the control method for preventing the power battery pack from being damaged comprises the following steps:

[0061] Step S10, calculating the current dew point temperature according to the current temperature and humidity of the external environment and a preset parameter mapping relationship.

[0062] It should be noted that the executor of this embodiment is a control device for preventing damage to the power battery pack. It can also be other devices that can achieve the same or similar functions, such as a vehicle controller, etc. This embodiment does not limit this. In this embodiment, the vehicle controller is taken as an example for explanation.

[0063] It should be understood that the current temperature refers to the temperature of the external environment where the target vehicle is located, and the current temperature can be collected by a temperature sensor. Similarly, the current humidity refers to the air humidity of the external environment where the target vehicle is located, and the current humidity can be collected by a humidity sensor. The preset parameter mapping relationship refers to the mapping relationship between temperature, humidity and dew point.

[0064] Further, step S10 includes: collecting the current temperature of the external environment through a temperature sensor arranged outside the target vehicle, and collecting the current humidity of the external environment through a humidity sensor arranged outside the target vehicle; obtaining an ambient temperature-relative humidity-dew point relationship table according to the preset parameter mapping relationship; calculating the current temperature and the current humidity according to the ambient temperature-relative humidity-dew point relationship table to obtain the current dew point temperature.

[0065] It can be understood that after obtaining the current temperature and current humidity of the external environment, the current dew point temperature is calculated through the ambient temperature-relative humidity-dew point relationship table. Specifically, it can be inferred through the ambient temperature-relative humidity-dew point relationship table that when the current relative humidity is 95%, condensation will occur if the current temperature drops by 1-2°C; when the current relative humidity is 80%, condensation will occur if the current temperature drops by 4-5°C; when the current relative humidity is 50%, condensation will occur if the current temperature drops by more than 10°C.

[0066] Step S20, calculating the current relative air pressure difference according to the internal air pressure and the external air pressure of the explosion-proof device.

[0067] It can be understood that the explosion-proof device refers to a device that relieves pressure on explosive pipes to prevent explosions. The explosion-proof device can be a balanced explosion-proof valve. The internal air pressure refers to the internal air pressure when the explosion-proof device is connected to the power battery pack system. The external air pressure refers to the external air pressure when the explosion-proof device is connected to the outside world. The current relative air pressure difference is then calculated based on the internal air pressure and external air pressure of the explosion-proof device. For example, if the internal air pressure is A Pa and the external air pressure is B Pa, the current relative air pressure difference is (AB) Pa.

[0068] Step S30, when the current dew point temperature is greater than a preset dew point temperature threshold and the current relative air pressure value is less than a preset air pressure threshold, obtaining the current state of the target vehicle.

[0069] It should be understood that the current state of the target vehicle includes a stationary state and a driving state. After obtaining the current dew point temperature and the current relative air pressure value, it is necessary to determine whether the conditions that the current dew point temperature is greater than the preset dew point temperature threshold and the current relative air pressure value is less than the preset air pressure threshold are met. If so, it is necessary to protect the power battery pack according to the current state of the target vehicle. The preset air pressure threshold is 0 Pa.

[0070] Furthermore, after the current dew point temperature is greater than the preset dew point temperature threshold, it also includes: determining whether the current relative air pressure value is greater than the preset air pressure threshold; when the current relative air pressure value is greater than the preset air pressure threshold, obtaining the current state of the target gas valve; when the current state is a closed state, setting the target gas valve to an open state through a first gas valve control instruction.

[0071] It can be understood that when the current dew point temperature is greater than the preset dew point temperature threshold, but the current relative air pressure value is greater than the preset air pressure threshold, it indicates that the hot and humid air from the external environment will not enter the power battery pack through the target air valve. However, in order to prevent the internal air pressure from being too high and damaging the pipeline, the target air valve is set to the open state through the first air valve control instruction at this time, so that the internal gas is discharged to the outside.

[0072] Step S40, controlling the target air valve, the dehumidification device and the thermal management device according to the current state of the target vehicle to prevent damage to the power battery pack.

[0073] It can be understood that by controlling the target air valve, the outside humid and hot air will not enter and condense on the surface of the power battery pack. By controlling the dehumidification device, the outside humid and hot air entering the air pipe will be converted into condensed humid and hot liquid and discharged after the cavity is cooled. By controlling the thermal management device to reduce the temperature of the power battery pack, the power battery pack can be prevented from being overheated, which will cause damage to the internal structure and degradation of performance.

[0074] Further, step S40 includes: when the current state of the target vehicle is a stationary state, obtaining the current state of the target gas valve; when the current state of the target gas valve is an open state, setting the target gas valve to a closed state through a second gas valve control instruction; after the setting is completed, obtaining the current performance parameters of the power battery pack, and generating a target box cover repair strategy based on the current performance parameters; and controlling the box cover wrapping the power battery pack according to the target box body repair strategy.

[0075] It should be understood that when the current state of the target vehicle is a stationary state, it indicates that the target vehicle has not been started, and when the current dew point temperature is greater than the preset dew point temperature threshold and the current relative air pressure value is less than the preset air pressure threshold, it indicates that the outside hot and humid air will enter the power battery pack. At this time, the target air valve is set to a closed state through the second air valve control instruction to prevent the outside hot and humid air from entering and condensing on the surface of the power battery pack. When the current relative air pressure value is less than the preset air pressure threshold, the box cover wrapping the power battery pack will cause slight deformation and concave due to the action of air pressure, which has a smaller impact than swelling. It can be controlled by the target box cover repair strategy generated by the current performance parameters of the power battery pack to repair the slight deformation and concave, for example, by setting the opening pressure through the current performance parameters or adding protective foam to offset the impact of air pressure.

[0076] Further, step S40 includes: when the current state of the target vehicle is the driving state, determining whether it is detected that the outside humid hot air enters the target air path; when it is detected that the outside humid hot air enters the target air path, setting the target heating network in the dehumidification device to a start state through a preset heating instruction; after the setting is completed, condensing the outside humid hot air into a corresponding humid hot liquid through a target cooling cavity; and discharging the humid hot liquid out of the cavity through the preset inclination angle of the condensation pipe and the action of gravity.

[0077] It can be understood that when the current state of the target vehicle is the driving state, it indicates that the target vehicle is starting. When it is detected that the outside humid hot air enters the target air path, the target heating network is set to the starting state through the preset heating instruction, so that the target heating network heats the outside humid hot air, and makes the outside humid hot air easier to condense by reducing the moisture. The target heating device can be a heating network. After heating, when the outside humid hot air passes through the standard cooling cavity, the outside humid hot air will condense into humid hot liquid after encountering cold and condense on the preset condensation pipe. The preset condensation pipe is set with a certain inclination angle, and the humid liquid is discharged from the cavity through the inclination angle and gravity, so that the outside humid hot air condenses in advance and is discharged in time.

[0078] Furthermore, step S40 includes: when the current state of the target vehicle is the driving state, obtaining the current temperature of the power battery pack; when the current temperature of the power battery pack is much greater than a preset temperature threshold, generating a heat dissipation control strategy according to the current temperature of the power battery pack, the preset temperature threshold and the thermal management device; controlling the circulating water pump, condenser, compressor and cooler according to the heat dissipation control strategy; after the control is completed, adjusting the refrigerant expansion valve according to the current temperature of the power battery pack to reduce the current temperature of the power battery pack.

[0079] It should be understood that when the current state of the target vehicle is the driving state and the current temperature of the power battery pack is much greater than the preset temperature threshold, it indicates that the high temperature will cause damage to the internal structure of the power battery pack and reduce performance. At this time, it is necessary to control the thermal management device to dissipate heat from the power battery pack. The heat dissipation control strategy refers to a control strategy for reducing the temperature of the power battery pack, specifically by controlling the working hours of the circulating water pump, condenser, compressor and cooler. During the control process, the refrigerant expansion valve will also be adjusted to reduce the current temperature of the power battery pack, so that the final temperature of the power battery pack drops to a safe temperature range in the shortest time.

[0080] Understandably, reference Figure 3 , Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the overall structure, specifically: a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor are set on the outside of the target vehicle, an air pressure sensor, a target air valve, a dehumidification device, a condenser, a compressor, a balanced explosion-proof valve, a power battery pack, a circulating water pump, a condenser, a cockpit refrigeration device, and a cooler, wherein the power battery pack and the circulating water pump are connected with a water-cooling liquid circuit, the power battery pack and the cooler are connected with a water-cooling liquid circuit, the cooler and the circulating water cooling are connected with a water-cooling liquid circuit, the balanced explosion-proof valve arranged on the power battery pack is connected with the dehumidification device with an air circuit, the target air valve is connected with the dehumidification device with a condensate liquid circuit, and the one-way valve, four-way joint, condenser, compressor, cooler, and cockpit refrigeration device are all connected with a condensate liquid circuit.

[0081] It should be understood that reference Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of a dehumidification device, specifically: 1 is a balanced explosion-proof valve, 2 is a coolant pipeline, 3 is a gas condensation pipeline, 4 is a heating network, and 5 is a condensation device. Specifically, when the external humid hot air enters the target gas path under pressure, it is first heated by the heating network 4, and then the heated external humid hot air passes through the cooling cavity and condenses on the gas condensation pipeline 3 after being cooled, and finally is discharged from the cavity under the action of gravity.

[0082] This embodiment calculates the current dew point temperature according to the current temperature, current humidity and preset parameter mapping relationship of the external environment; calculates the current relative air pressure difference according to the internal air pressure and external air pressure of the explosion-proof device; obtains the current state of the target vehicle when the current dew point temperature is greater than the preset dew point temperature threshold and the current relative air pressure value is less than the preset air pressure threshold; controls the target air valve, dehumidification device and thermal management device according to the current state of the target vehicle; through the above manner, when the dew point temperature and air pressure conditions are met, multiple devices are controlled according to the current state of the target vehicle to avoid external humid air from entering and condensation on the surface of the power battery pack and excessive temperature of the power battery pack, thereby timely and accurately preventing the power battery pack from being damaged by temperature and humidity.

[0083] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 The second embodiment of the control method for preventing power battery pack damage according to the present invention is proposed based on the first embodiment. After step S40, the method further includes:

[0084] Step S501, testing the power battery pack using a preset battery performance testing strategy to obtain current performance testing parameters.

[0085] It should be understood that the preset battery performance detection strategy refers to the strategy for detecting the battery or power battery pack, and the current performance detection parameters refer to the performance parameters of the power battery pack, which include but are not limited to endurance performance, charge and discharge rate, impedance, and self-discharge rate.

[0086] Step S502 , obtaining standard performance parameters of the power battery pack, and comparing the current performance detection parameters with the standard performance parameters to obtain performance difference parameters.

[0087] It can be understood that the standard performance parameters refer to the qualified performance parameters of the power battery pack, for example, the self-discharge rate is less than 0.1%, and the performance difference parameters refer to the difference parameters between the current performance detection parameters of the power battery pack and the standard performance parameters.

[0088] Step S503: When there is no temperature and humidity influencing parameter in the performance difference parameters, damage prevention control is performed on the power battery packs of other vehicles of the same type as the target vehicle.

[0089] It should be understood that the temperature and humidity influencing parameters refer to the parameters that cause performance differences due to temperature and / or humidity factors. When the temperature and humidity influencing parameters do not exist in the performance difference parameters, it indicates that the above-mentioned control method can reduce the damage to the power battery pack caused by the temperature and humidity of the external environment. At this time, the above-mentioned control method can be used to carry out damage prevention control on the power battery packs of other vehicles of the same type as the target vehicle.

[0090] This embodiment detects the power battery pack through a preset battery performance detection strategy to obtain current performance detection parameters; obtains standard performance parameters of the power battery pack, compares the current performance detection parameters with the standard performance parameters to obtain performance difference parameters; when there are no temperature and humidity influencing parameters in the performance difference parameters, performs damage prevention control on power battery packs of other vehicles of the same type as the target vehicle; through the above method, the current performance detection parameters of the power battery pack are detected through a preset battery performance detection strategy, and then the current performance detection parameters are compared with the standard performance parameters, and then it is determined whether there are temperature and humidity influencing parameters in the compared performance difference parameters. If not, damage prevention control is performed on power battery packs of other vehicles of the same type as the target vehicle, thereby preventing damage to the power battery packs due to temperature and humidity factors.

[0091] In addition, an embodiment of the present invention further proposes a storage medium, on which is stored a control program for preventing power battery pack damage. When the control program for preventing power battery pack damage is executed by a processor, the steps of the control method for preventing power battery pack damage as described above are implemented.

[0092] Since the storage medium adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0093] In addition, refer to Figure 6 The embodiment of the present invention further provides a control device for preventing a power battery pack from being damaged. The control device for preventing a power battery pack from being damaged comprises:

[0094] The calculation module 10 is used to calculate the current dew point temperature according to the current temperature and humidity of the external environment and a preset parameter mapping relationship.

[0095] The calculation module 10 is also used to calculate the current relative air pressure difference according to the internal air pressure and the external air pressure of the explosion-proof device.

[0096] The judgment module 20 is used to obtain the current state of the target vehicle when the current dew point temperature is greater than a preset dew point temperature threshold and the current relative air pressure value is less than a preset air pressure threshold.

[0097] The control module 30 is used to control the target air valve, the dehumidification device and the thermal management device according to the current state of the target vehicle to prevent damage to the power battery pack.

[0098] This embodiment calculates the current dew point temperature according to the current temperature, current humidity and preset parameter mapping relationship of the external environment; calculates the current relative air pressure difference according to the internal air pressure and external air pressure of the explosion-proof device; obtains the current state of the target vehicle when the current dew point temperature is greater than the preset dew point temperature threshold and the current relative air pressure value is less than the preset air pressure threshold; controls the target air valve, dehumidification device and thermal management device according to the current state of the target vehicle; through the above manner, when the dew point temperature and air pressure conditions are met, multiple devices are controlled according to the current state of the target vehicle to avoid external humid air from entering and condensation on the surface of the power battery pack and excessive temperature of the power battery pack, thereby timely and accurately preventing the power battery pack from being damaged by temperature and humidity.

[0099] It should be noted that the workflow described above is merely illustrative and does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
