That is, these functional entities may be implemented in software form, or in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or in different networks and / or processor devices and / or microcontroller devices.

The character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0032] The implementation details of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application are described in detail below:

[0033] First of all, it should be noted that the detection scheme of the characteristic parameters of the internal short circuit of the battery proposed in this application can be applied to the lithium battery detection scenario of new energy vehicles. Internal short circuit is one of the most common causes of safety runaway accidents in lithium batteries. Under the abuse conditions of external force, electricity, heat, etc., as well as quality defects in the battery manufacturing process and the mixing of foreign matter, the positive and negative poles of the lithium battery may be short-circuited, triggering the internal short circuit. The heat generated by the internal short circuit causes the local temperature rise of the battery, which in turn causes a larger-scale internal short circuit. The heat continues to accumulate, and eventually triggers a chain reaction of thermal runaway, leading to safety accidents such as fire and explosion. Therefore, it is particularly important to evaluate the battery performance before the battery is put into use, or to detect the characteristic parameters of the internal short circuit of the battery during the use of the battery.

[0034] According to one aspect of the present application, a method for detecting characteristic parameters of a short circuit in a battery is provided. Figure 1 The flowchart of the method for detecting the characteristic parameters of the short circuit in the battery according to the embodiment of the present application is shown. The method for detecting the characteristic parameters of the short circuit in the battery can be performed by a device with a computing and processing function. The method for detecting the characteristic parameters of the short circuit in the battery at least includes steps 110 to 140, which are described in detail as follows:

[0035] In step 110, an external voltage characteristic curve of the target battery is obtained when the target battery is subjected to constant current external discharge according to various set current values.

[0036] In this application, the target battery can first be controlled to perform constant current external discharge according to different preset current values, and the external voltage characteristic curve of the battery can be obtained at the same time. For example, lithium batteries with different SOCs (0-100%) are subjected to constant current external discharge with different currents (0.1A-500A) to obtain the external voltage characteristic curve of the lithium battery.

[0037] In the present application, the external voltage characteristic curves corresponding to different set current values ​​obtained can be used for the subsequent detection of short-circuit characteristic parameters in the battery.

[0038] Continue to refer to Figure 1 In step 120, an internal voltage characteristic curve of the target battery when an internal short circuit occurs is obtained.

[0039] When a short circuit occurs inside the target battery, voltage and current will be generated inside the target battery. Therefore, an internal voltage characteristic curve of the target battery when an internal short circuit occurs can be collected.

[0040] Continue to refer to Figure 1 In step 130, each external voltage characteristic curve is matched with the internal voltage characteristic curve, and the external voltage characteristic curve with the highest matching degree is determined as the target external voltage characteristic curve.

[0041] In the present application, the matching of each external voltage characteristic curve with the internal voltage characteristic curve may be performed by determining the external voltage characteristic curve with the highest matching degree according to the degree of overlap between each external voltage characteristic curve and the internal voltage characteristic curve.

[0042] Continue to refer to Figure 1 In step 140, the internal short-circuit characteristic parameter of the target battery is determined according to the set current value corresponding to the target external voltage characteristic curve.

[0043] In the present application, since the target external voltage characteristic curve has a high degree of matching with the internal voltage characteristic curve of the target battery when an internal short circuit occurs, the circuit characteristic parameters corresponding to the target external voltage characteristic curve can be equivalent to the internal short circuit characteristic parameters of the target battery when an internal short circuit occurs. Furthermore, the internal short circuit characteristic parameters of the target battery can be determined according to the set current value corresponding to the target external voltage characteristic curve.

[0044] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, the internal short circuit characteristic parameter of the target battery is determined according to the set current value corresponding to the target external voltage characteristic curve, which can be performed as follows: Figure 2 Follow the steps shown.

[0045] See also Figure 2, is a detailed flow chart of determining the internal short-circuit characteristic parameters of the target battery according to the set current value corresponding to the target external voltage characteristic curve according to an embodiment of the present application. Specifically, it includes steps 151 to 154:

[0046] Step 151: determine a set current value corresponding to the target external voltage characteristic curve as the internal short-circuit current of the target battery.

[0047] Step 152: Calculate the internal short-circuit resistance of the target battery according to the internal short-circuit current.

[0048] Step 153: Calculate the internal short-circuit thermal power of the target battery according to the internal short-circuit current and the internal short-circuit resistance.

[0049] Step 154 ​​, determining at least one of the internal short-circuit current, the internal short-circuit resistance, and the internal short-circuit thermal power as an internal short-circuit characteristic parameter of the target battery.

[0050] In order to make those skilled in the art better understand this embodiment, Figure 3 Provide a brief explanation.

[0051] See also Figure 3 , which is the equivalent circuit model diagram of the short circuit in the battery.

[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, according to the battery internal short circuit equivalent model, R ISC =U / I ISC Calculate the internal short-circuit resistance R ISC , can be further based on Calculate the internal short-circuit thermal power W.

[0053] It can be seen that the larger the internal short-circuit current (i.e., the smaller the internal short-circuit resistance), the higher the heat generated during the battery internal short-circuit process, and the higher the risk of battery fire and explosion. Therefore, this method can be used to obtain the internal short-circuit current value and internal short-circuit resistance value of different batteries or the same battery in different states.

[0054] In the present application, based on the internal voltage characteristic curve of the battery when an internal short circuit occurs, by pre-acquiring the external voltage characteristic curve of the battery when performing constant current external discharge according to various set current values ​​as reference data, the internal short circuit characteristic parameters of the battery can be detected conveniently and accurately.

[0055] In this application, the above Figure 1 The detection scheme of the short-circuit characteristic parameters in the battery shown can be specifically applied to the scenario of evaluating the battery performance before the battery is put into use, and can also be applied to the scenario of monitoring the battery safety during the use of the battery.

[0056] The technical solutions proposed in this application will be further disclosed below based on the perspectives of these two scenarios.

[0057] In the scenario of evaluating battery performance before the battery is put into use:

[0058] In one embodiment of the present application, before obtaining the internal voltage characteristic curve of the target battery when an internal short circuit occurs, the target battery may be subjected to a needle puncture treatment according to different needle puncture test parameters to simulate the internal short circuit process of the target battery.

[0059] Specifically, for example, the lithium battery can be adjusted to a certain SOC (0-100%), and the puncture test parameters, such as the thickness, material, puncture speed, puncture depth, puncture temperature, etc. of the needle, can be adjusted to perform a puncture test on the lithium battery, and the battery voltage change curve over time during the puncture test can be recorded (i.e., the external voltage characteristic curve of the lithium battery).

[0060] In one embodiment of the present application, the following steps 161 to 162 may be performed:

[0061] Step 161, obtaining internal short-circuit characteristic parameters of target batteries of different models under the same puncture test parameters, and obtaining multiple groups of first internal short-circuit characteristic parameters.

[0062] Step 162 , comparing the plurality of groups of first internal short circuit characteristic parameters to evaluate the battery performance of target batteries of different models under the same puncture test parameters.

[0063] In another embodiment of the present application, the following steps 171 to 172 may also be performed:

[0064] Step 171, obtaining internal short-circuit characteristic parameters of the same target battery under different puncture test parameters, and obtaining multiple groups of second internal short-circuit characteristic parameters.

[0065] Step 172, comparing the plurality of groups of second internal short circuit characteristic parameters to evaluate the battery performance of the same target battery under different puncture test parameters.

[0066] In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the above two embodiments, the following will be based on three specific embodiments, combined with 4, Figure 5 , Figure 6 Provide explanation.

[0067] Example 1: First, perform external discharge on lithium battery A with 100% SOC, and the discharge currents are 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, and 6A respectively, to obtain its external voltage characteristic curve at different currents. Then, charge lithium battery A to full charge, i.e., 100% SOC state, according to the standard charging method. Perform a puncture test on the lithium battery to simulate an internal short circuit in the lithium battery. The puncture test parameters are: 5mm steel needle, 25mm / s puncture test speed, and penetrate the lithium battery. Record the curve of the voltage change of lithium battery A over time during the puncture test to obtain the internal voltage characteristic curve. Finally, compare the external voltage characteristic curve with the internal voltage characteristic curve, and refer to Figure 4 , which is a comparison of the internal voltage characteristic curve and the external voltage characteristic curve of the battery A cell during the 5mm steel needle puncture process. It can be judged that the voltage change curve of battery A during the 5mm steel needle puncture process is most consistent with the discharge curve at 2A, so it can be determined that the internal short-circuit current when the acupuncture causes an internal short circuit in the battery is 2A.

[0068] Example 2: First, perform external discharge on lithium battery A with 100% SOC, with discharge currents of 0.5A, 1A, 1.5A, and 2A, respectively, to obtain its external voltage characteristic curve at different currents. Then, charge lithium battery A to full charge, i.e., 100% SOC state, according to the standard charging method. Perform a puncture test on the lithium battery to simulate an internal short circuit in the lithium battery. The puncture test parameters are: 1mm steel needle, 0.1mm / s puncture test speed, and penetrate the lithium battery. Record the curve of the voltage change of lithium battery A over time during the puncture test to obtain the internal voltage characteristic curve. Finally, compare the external voltage characteristic curve with the internal voltage characteristic curve, see Figure 5 , which is a comparison diagram of the internal voltage characteristic curve and the external voltage characteristic curve of the battery A cell during the 1mm steel needle puncture process. It can be judged that the voltage change curve of battery A during the 1mm steel needle puncture process is most consistent with the discharge curve at 0.5A, so it can be determined that the internal short-circuit current when the acupuncture causes an internal short circuit in the battery is 0.5A.

[0069] By comparing Example 1 with Example 2, it can be seen that since the needle puncture test conditions used in Example 2 are milder, the severity of the internal short circuit of the battery is obviously lower than that of Example 1. By using the method provided by the patent application, the internal short circuit current of the battery in Example 2 is also lower than that of Example 1, the battery releases less heat, and the battery safety state is better. Therefore, the method provided by the patent application can quantitatively evaluate the danger level of the battery internal short circuit.

[0070] Example 3: Externally discharge battery B at 100% SOC with discharge currents of 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A, 7A, and 8A to obtain its external voltage characteristic curve at different currents. Then, charge lithium battery B to full charge, i.e., 100% SOC state, according to the standard charging method. Perform a puncture test on the lithium battery to simulate an internal short circuit in the lithium battery. The puncture test parameters are: 5mm steel needle, 25mm / s puncture test speed, and penetrate the lithium battery. Record the curve of the voltage change of lithium battery B over time during the puncture test to obtain the internal voltage characteristic curve. Finally, compare the external voltage characteristic curve with the internal voltage characteristic curve for reference. Figure 6 , which is a comparison diagram of the internal voltage characteristic curve and the external voltage characteristic curve of the battery B cell during the 5mm steel needle puncture process. It can be judged that the voltage change curve of battery B during the 5mm steel needle puncture process is most consistent with the discharge curve at 8A, so it can be determined that the internal short-circuit current when the acupuncture causes an internal short circuit in the battery is 8A.

[0071] By comparing Example 1 with Example 3, it can be seen that under the same needle puncture test conditions, the internal short-circuit current value of battery B is greater than that of battery A, indicating that under the same needle puncture test conditions, battery B generates more heat and has a higher risk of fire and explosion. Therefore, the method provided by this patent application can quantitatively evaluate the safety of different batteries, thereby guiding battery selection.

[0072] Monitoring scenarios for battery safety during battery use:

[0073] In one embodiment of the present application, after determining the internal short circuit characteristic parameters of the target battery, the following steps 181 to 182 may be performed:

[0074] Step 181 , monitoring the internal short-circuit current of the target battery in real time as the real-time internal short-circuit current.

[0075] Step 182: If the real-time internal short-circuit current exceeds a set current threshold, a warning prompt is issued for the target battery.

[0076] In another embodiment of the present application, after determining the internal short circuit characteristic parameters of the target battery, the following steps 191 to 192 may also be performed:

[0077] Step 191 , monitoring the internal short-circuit resistance of the target battery in real time as the real-time internal short-circuit resistance.

[0078] Step 192: If the real-time internal short-circuit resistance is lower than a set resistance threshold, a warning prompt is issued for the target battery.

[0079] In the present application, based on the above two embodiments, specifically, the battery internal short circuit warning current I can be defined as ISCk(or internal short circuit warning resistor R ISCk ), during the use of the battery, for example, during the use of the battery in a new energy vehicle, the battery management system can monitor and analyze the voltage of the new energy vehicle using the same lithium battery. During the operation of the new energy vehicle, when the lithium battery has an internal short circuit, the battery management system can detect a sudden drop in voltage. The monitored internal voltage characteristic curve is compared with the predetermined external voltage characteristic curve, and the internal short circuit current I of this internal short circuit is determined according to the degree of curve matching. ISCR , when I ISCR ≥Internal short circuit warning current I ISCk When (or R ISCR ≤Internal short circuit warning resistor R ISCk ), and issue a reminder, requiring the user to go to after-sales service for battery maintenance as soon as possible. This application calculates the internal short-circuit current and internal short-circuit resistance value of the battery with internal short-circuit in real time. When the internal short-circuit current and internal short-circuit resistance value of the battery are monitored to exceed the preset threshold, the user is reminded to maintain the battery in time, realizing the power battery internal short-circuit safety warning to avoid safety accidents.

[0080] It should be noted that in this application, it is not limited to the determination of the internal short-circuit current of the battery caused by internal short-circuit due to acupuncture, but can also be applied to the internal short-circuit caused by the external force, electricity, heat, quality defects in the battery manufacturing process and foreign matter mixing. In addition, the application scope of this application is not limited to lithium-ion batteries, but also includes sodium-ion batteries, potassium-ion batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries, lithium-air batteries and other new system batteries.

[0081] In summary, by obtaining the external voltage characteristic curve of the target battery when it is subjected to constant current external discharge according to each set current value and the internal voltage characteristic curve of the target battery when an internal short circuit occurs, the target external voltage characteristic curve with the highest matching degree with the internal voltage characteristic curve can be determined among the external voltage characteristic curves, and then the internal short circuit characteristic parameters of the target battery can be determined according to the set current value corresponding to the target external voltage characteristic curve. Since the present application compares the internal voltage characteristic curve of the target battery when an internal short circuit occurs with the external voltage characteristic curve of the battery determined in advance during constant current external discharge, the characteristic parameters of the battery with an internal short circuit can be determined in real time. In addition to improving the accuracy of the detection of the internal short circuit characteristic parameters of the battery, the performance of the battery can also be quantitatively evaluated, thereby improving the accuracy of battery detection.
