Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery packs, and in particular to a lithium-ion battery consistency identification method based on voltage curve shape. Background Art
[0002] Lithium-ion batteries, with their high energy density, long cycle life, and low self-discharge, have become widely used in new energy vehicles, smart grids, and other fields. However, due to fluctuations in the operating environment during battery manufacturing, parameter inconsistencies are common among lithium-ion batteries. These inconsistencies can amplify as the battery system operates, leading to decreased system performance, shortened service life, and even safety issues. Therefore, developing fast and reliable battery consistency identification methods is crucial for improving the performance and safety of battery packs and extending their service life.
[0003] External battery parameters usually refer to voltage, current, and temperature; internal parameters mainly refer to capacity, internal resistance, state of charge, coulombic efficiency, etc., among which capacity, internal resistance, and state of charge are of greatest concern. Existing feature-based methods mainly use the following two methods for battery consistency identification: one is to use voltage as a consistency feature parameter and directly make battery consistency judgments based on differences in voltage values; the other is to first convert voltage operating data into differential capacity curves, capacity increment curves, and other forms, and then extract characteristic parameters such as peak height and peak width to make capacity and internal resistance consistency judgments. The former focuses on differences in external battery characteristics and cannot deeply explore the source of internal battery consistency; the latter relies on characteristic constant-rate operating conditions, which makes it difficult to meet operational requirements and can only distinguish between changes in capacity and internal resistance caused by aging. Therefore, how to use external voltage operating data to identify the consistency of key internal parameters such as capacity, internal resistance, and state of charge requires the development of new methods.
[0004] Chinese Invention Publication No. CN201710308848.4 discloses a consistency evaluation method for series-structured battery packs. Based on the measured voltage curves of individual cells, a distance similarity index calculation method based on a dynamic time warping strategy was developed. This method can adaptively eliminate factors influencing differences in cell voltage due to different SOCs, enabling estimation of differences in operating characteristics between cells during the charge and discharge process. Compared to existing consistency extraction methods based on voltage differences at discrete moments, this method is more helpful in extracting intrinsic battery information. Furthermore, a statistical identification method for abnormal cells based on a stepwise iteration strategy was developed, enabling consistency evaluation of series-structured battery packs. However, this method uses a dynamic time warping strategy to represent similarity, primarily based on voltage differences. It directly evaluates consistency overall based on a similarity index matrix and eliminates the influence of the state of charge (SOC). This method is unable to distinguish between individual differences in SOC, capacity, or internal resistance.
[0005] In summary, existing battery identification methods have the following shortcomings:
[0006] (1) Most existing methods evaluate abnormal batteries based on the overall consistency of the battery. The object of evaluation is the overall battery performance, and it is impossible to distinguish the differences between the various battery parameters;
[0007] (2) Some existing methods use similarity indicators to sort batteries and use the threshold of abnormal indicators to achieve the purpose of abnormal battery identification. However, batteries generally have consistency problems, and the existence of consistency problems does not mean that they are abnormal batteries, and the evaluation of batteries is inaccurate. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned prior art and provide a lithium-ion battery consistency identification method based on the voltage curve shape that can distinguish the consistency of single parameters such as state of charge, capacity, and internal resistance.
[0009] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the process of obtaining the dissimilarity matrix includes the following steps: adopting a dynamic regularization algorithm to obtain the dissimilarity matrix according to the voltage derivative matrix.
[0015] As an optimal technical solution, the process of obtaining the non-metric multidimensional scaling results includes the following steps: using the non-metric multidimensional scaling method to obtain the coordinate information of each battery in the p-dimensional space according to the non-similarity matrix; normalizing the coordinate information to obtain the non-metric multidimensional scaling results.
[0016] As an optimal technical solution, the process of obtaining the coordinate information of the p-dimensional space includes the following steps: obtaining the stress coefficient for non-metric multidimensional scaling based on the non-similarity matrix; using the direct gradient descent method to solve the minimization problem of the stress coefficient for non-metric multidimensional scaling to obtain the coordinate information of the p-dimensional space.
[0017] As a preferred technical solution, the implementation process of the multi-parameter consistency visual recognition based on the non-metric multidimensional scaling fitting composition includes the following steps: representing the non-metric multidimensional scaling results in a two-dimensional space fitting composition, clustering single cells with the same internal resistance, and forming equal SOC lines and equal capacity lines within each cluster; according to the positional relationship of each point in the p-dimensional space fitting composition, the farther the distance between the two points, the greater the difference in the corresponding single cells, thereby realizing multi-parameter consistency visual recognition based on the non-metric multidimensional scaling fitting composition.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0021] (1) Since the influence of different consistency parameters on voltage is not only reflected in the magnitude but also in the shape of the voltage curve, the present invention decouples the differences in different consistency parameters from the shape of the voltage curve and adopts a derivative dynamic time warping strategy to represent similarity, thereby achieving the distinction of the consistency of the single parameters of state of charge, capacity, and internal resistance;

[0027] Example 1
[0028] like Figure 1 As described above, this embodiment provides a lithium-ion battery consistency identification method based on voltage curve shape, comprising the following steps:
[0029] Step S1, online measurement of the voltage of each single battery during the charge and discharge process;
[0030] Step S2, calculating the shape dissimilarity matrix based on the derivative dynamic time warping distance;
[0031] Step S3, calculating based on the non-metric multidimensional scaling method of the shape dissimilarity matrix;
[0032] Step S4, normalization of the non-metric multidimensional scaling results;
[0033] Step S5: Visual recognition of multi-parameter consistency of the non-metric multi-dimensional scaling fitting composition.
[0034] The detailed description of each step is as follows:
[0035] Step S1, online measurement of the voltage of each single cell during the charge and discharge process: for each charge or discharge stage, the voltage value of each single cell at different times is collected and recorded by the measuring equipment. The voltage value of the i-th cell at the k-th sampling point is V i,k , the voltage curves measured on N single cells during each charging or discharging stage can be expressed as:
[0036]
[0037] Among them, V i =[V i,1 ,…,V i,M ] T , i = 1, 2, ..., N is the voltage curve of the i-th single cell in the charging or discharging stage, N is the number of single cells, M is the number of measurement points in the charging or discharging stage, and T represents the transpose operator.
[0038] Step S2, shape dissimilarity matrix calculation based on derivative dynamic time warping distance: for the battery voltage curve V obtained in step S1 i =[V i,1 ,V i,2 ,…,V i,k ,…,V i,M ] T , use the following formula to calculate the derivative value of each voltage point:
[0039]
[0040] Since the derivative values at the starting point and the end point cannot be calculated according to the above formula, the voltage derivative matrix can be expressed as:
[0041]
[0042] For the i-th cell voltage derivative time series v i =[v i,1 ,v i,2 ,…,v i,k …,v i,M-2 ] T and the jth voltage derivative time series v j =[v j,1 ,v j,2 ,…,v j,l …,v j,M-2 ] T , construct a matrix D, where the element d i,j (k,l),1≤k,l≤M-2 means v i The kth element in v j The Euclidean distance between the lth elements in . Using the dynamic regularization algorithm, calculate v i and v j The distance r i,j , the specific formula is as follows:
[0043]
[0044] where r i,j(k, l) represents the cumulative distance on the path from (1, 1) to (k, l) in matrix D. According to the above formula, starting from (1, 1) and ending at (M-2, M-2), the final cumulative distance is the derivative dynamic time warping distance ddtw i,j .
[0045] Calculate N(N-1) / 2 times and you can get the following dissimilarity matrix:
[0046]
[0047] Step S3, calculation based on non-metric multidimensional scaling of shape dissimilarity matrix: using non-metric multidimensional scaling, the dissimilarity matrix DDTW is mapped to p-dimensional space, and the coordinates X1, X2, ... X of each single cell in the p-dimensional space are calculated. N The non-metric multidimensional scaling uses the stress coefficient Stress1:
[0048]
[0049] Among them, β i,j for ddtw i,j The equivalent distance in the p-dimensional space is calculated using the following Euclidean distance:
[0050]
[0051] By using the direct gradient descent method to solve the Stress1 minimization problem, the coordinates of each single battery in the p-dimensional space can be obtained. In this embodiment, p=2 is selected.
[0052] Step S4, normalization of the non-metric multidimensional scaling results: based on the coordinates X1, X2, ... X obtained in step 4 N , perform normalization to [-1,1] on the sth dimension, where s=1,2,…,p. and obtain the coordinates Y1,Y2,…Y N , where element Y i Calculate according to the following formula:
[0053]
[0054] Step S5, multi-parameter consistency visualization recognition based on non-metric multi-dimensional scaling fitting composition: coordinates Y1, Y2, ...Y NThe coordinates of N individual cells in p-dimensional space correspond to N discrete points in two-dimensional space. Using visualization, these N discrete points are represented within a two-dimensional fitted graph. Cells with identical internal resistance are clustered in the graph, and within each cluster, lines of equal SOC and equal capacity are formed. The positional relationship of each point within the p-dimensional fitted graph allows the source of parameter differences to be identified. The greater the distance between two points, the greater the difference between the corresponding cells.
[0055] The above-mentioned lithium-ion battery consistency identification method based on voltage curve shape is used to visually identify the multi-parameter consistency of 484 lithium-ion single batteries under the constant discharge condition which is common in both offline and online applications. The implementation effect is as follows: Figure 2 shown.
[0056] This embodiment recognizes that different battery internal parameters have different effects on the shape of the voltage curve. Therefore, based on the curve shape characteristics, the derivative dynamic time warping distance is used to construct a voltage shape dissimilarity matrix, and the non-metric multidimensional scaling method is used to transform this shape dissimilarity into a low-dimensional space, thereby realizing the identification of internal parameter differences such as capacity, internal resistance, and SOC between single cells.
