Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of resistance test, and particularly relates to a pre-charging resistance durability test system and a test method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The high-voltage integrated controller of an electric vehicle has a large capacitor C. If there is no pre-charging circuit, when the high-voltage contactor of the vehicle is attracted, the high voltage is connected, one end of the contactor is connected with the battery, and the other end is connected with the capacitor C. At this time, the voltage of the battery is relatively high, and the voltage of the high-voltage platform vehicle is generally about 600V, while the voltage on the capacitor C is close to 0V. At this time, du=600V-0V=600V, according to the formula I=C×du / dt, the charging current can reach thousands of amperes at this moment, which can easily damage the contactor and other high-voltage devices. The pre-charging circuit is to parallel a pre-charging resistor and a pre-charging contactor at both ends of the main contactor. When the high voltage of the vehicle is connected, the pre-charging circuit contactor is closed first. Due to the existence of the resistor R, the current is small, and the capacitor is gradually charged. When the voltage of the capacitor is close to that of the battery, the main contactor is closed, and then the pre-charging contactor is disconnected. The function of the pre-charging circuit is to avoid the large current impact in the power-on process, and to protect the contactor and high-voltage devices.

[0003] There are many controllers on the electric vehicle, such as motor controllers, air pump controllers, oil pump controllers and DC choppers, etc. Each controller needs a pre-charging circuit, and the performance of the pre-charging resistor directly affects the reliability of the electric vehicle parts.

[0004] During the power-on process of the vehicle, the pre-charging resistor can play a role in pre-charging the input end capacitor of each high-voltage part connected with the power battery. If the pre-charging process fails, it will directly lead to the vehicle unable to be connected with high voltage. Therefore, the pre-charging resistor plays an indispensable and important role in the starting process of the vehicle. In order to ensure that the electric vehicle can be started normally and quickly, the durability of the pre-charging resistor needs to meet the use requirements of the electric vehicle.

[0036] Embodiment one

[0037] In one embodiment, reference is made to the drawings attached to the specification Figure 1The application provides a pre-charging resistor 5 durability test system.

[0038] The application provides a pre-charging resistor 5 durability test system, which comprises a high-voltage direct-current power supply 1, a low-voltage direct-current power supply 2, a vehicle controller 3, a multi-channel temperature rise recorder 4, a pre-charging resistor 5, a thermostat 6, a pre-charging contactor 7, a main contactor 8, a charging capacitor 9, an IGBT 10, a driving motor 11 and a motor controller 12.

[0039] The thermostat 6 is used to provide a high-temperature environment temperature simulating a whole vehicle for the pre-charging resistor 5, for example, a 40 DEG C constant temperature, and the temperature is adjustable, so that the working condition of the whole vehicle can be simulated more accurately.

[0040] The charging capacitor 9 is a thin-film capacitor, and the capacitance value is equal to the support capacitance value of the motor controller 12 (VCU, Vehicular Communication Unit) of the whole vehicle.

[0041] The IGBT 10 (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) is equivalent to a circuit switch and is a three-terminal semiconductor switching device, which can be used for high-efficiency and fast switching in various electronic devices, has the advantages of stable control voltage and strong voltage resistance, and is often used in the variable current system with a direct-current voltage of 500 volts or above. The biggest advantage of the IGBT 10 is that the voltage can be stably controlled, and the voltage resistance is strong, so it is often used on strong current with voltage of dozens to hundreds of volts, and it is not controlled by a mechanical button, but by the motor controller 12.

[0042] Optionally, the pre-charging resistor 5 durability test system further comprises a low-voltage wire harness and a high-voltage wire harness, and different wire harnesses can be selected according to actual needs to build the pre-charging resistor 5 durability test system.

[0043] Specifically, the high-low voltage wire harness is used to connect the vehicle controller 3, the motor controller 12 (MCU, Microcontroller Unit) and the driving motor 11 to form a loop.

[0044] The positive pole of the high-voltage direct-current power supply 1, the pre-charging resistor 5, the pre-charging contactor 7, the charging capacitor 9 and the negative pole of the high-voltage direct-current power supply 1 are sequentially connected in series to form a charging loop, and the charging capacitor 9 is used to simulate the support capacitance value of the motor controller 12.

[0045] The pre-charging resistor 5 is arranged in the thermostat 6, and the thermostat 6 is used to simulate the environment temperature of the pre-charging resistor 5 in the whole vehicle.

[0046] It can be understood that during the working of the pre-charge resistor 5 test system, the ambient temperature of the pre-charge resistor 5 should be the same as the temperature when the whole vehicle starts to run, so as to avoid the influence of the change of the ambient temperature on the test result.

[0047] The temperature rise line of the multi-channel temperature rise recorder 4 is attached to the surface of the pre-charge resistor 5, and is used to collect the surface temperature of the pre-charge resistor 5.

[0048] The input end of the main contactor 8 is connected with the input end of the pre-charge resistor 5, and the output end of the main contactor 8 is connected with the output end of the pre-charge contactor 7.

[0049] The whole vehicle controller 3 is electrically connected with the pre-charge contactor 7, the main contactor 8 and the motor controller 12 respectively, and the whole vehicle controller 3 is used to control the opening or closing of the pre-charge contactor 7 and the main contactor 8.

[0050] The driving motor 11 is electrically connected through the IGBT 10 and the charging capacitor 9 to form a discharge circuit, and the IGBT 10 is used to control the opening or closing of the discharge circuit.

[0051] It can be understood that for the discharge circuit, by setting the IGBT 10, the control of the high-voltage circuit can be adapted, and the control instruction is sent by the motor controller 12 to control the opening or closing of the discharge circuit.

[0052] The charging capacitor 9 and the IGBT 10 are both connected with the motor controller 12, and the motor controller 12 is used to collect the voltage across the charging capacitor 9 and to control the opening or closing of the IGBT 10.

[0053] The whole vehicle controller 3 and the pre-charge contactor 7 are both electrically connected with the low-voltage direct-current power supply 2, and the low-voltage direct-current power supply 2 is used to provide low-voltage for the whole vehicle controller 3 and the motor controller 12.

[0054] In a possible implementation, the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system further comprises a main drive fuse 13.

[0055] The main drive fuse 13 is connected in series between the charging capacitor 9 and the pre-charge contactor 7, and is used to protect the charging circuit from short circuit.

[0056] In a possible implementation, the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system further comprises a passive discharge resistor 14.

[0057] The passive discharge resistor 14 is connected in parallel across the charging capacitor 9.

[0058] The passive discharge resistor 14 is set to avoid the situation that the charging capacitor 9 cannot be discharged in the case of sudden conditions in the discharge circuit, and is used to discharge the electric quantity of the charging capacitor 9.

[0059] Compared with the prior art, the present application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0060] In the present application, the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system is provided with a charging circuit including the pre-charge resistor 5 and a discharging circuit including the driving motor 11. By simulating the power-on and power-off process of the whole vehicle in actual application, the pre-charge resistor 5 is subjected to cycle test according to the preset cycle number of durability use requirement in the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system. The surface temperature of the pre-charge resistor 5 is collected in real time by the multi-channel temperature rise recording set, and the voltage value across the charging capacitor 9 is collected in real time by the motor controller 12. During the test process, if the surface temperature is abnormal, the voltage value across the charging capacitor 9 does not meet the power-on and power-off requirement of the whole vehicle, or the preset cycle number is not reached, the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system is stopped in time by the whole vehicle controller 3. Whether the pre-charge resistor 5 meets the durability use requirement is finally determined by the test result. The operation is simple, the test result is reliable, and guidance is provided for the selection of the pre-charge resistor 5.

[0061] Embodiment two

[0062] In one embodiment, referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 2 The present application provides a flowchart of a pre-charge resistor 5 durability test method.

[0063] The present application provides a pre-charge resistor 5 durability test method, which is applied to the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system of embodiment one, and includes the following steps.

[0064] S101: Pretreatment is performed on the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system.

[0065] It can be understood that before the test, irrelevant factors or starting test parameters need to be debugged to avoid inaccurate test results caused by various factors.

[0066] In one possible implementation, S101 specifically includes the following steps.

[0067] S1011: According to the driving motor 11 parameters, the motor controller 12 parameters and the simulated whole vehicle power-on and power-off parameters, the program of the whole vehicle controller 3 and the motor controller 12 is matched, and the program is written.

[0068] S1012: According to the whole vehicle operating temperature, the temperature of the constant temperature box 6 is set so that the pre-charge resistor 5 is at the whole vehicle operating temperature.

[0069] The temperature of the thermostat 6 can set the relevant parameter value of the temperature control program in the thermostat 6 according to the actual use environment of the pre-charging resistor 5 in the whole vehicle, and start the temperature control program to simulate the environmental temperature of the pre-charging resistor 5 in the whole vehicle, for example, set the highest environmental temperature and the lowest environmental temperature of the temperature control program according to the actual use environment of the pre-charging resistor 5 in the whole vehicle.

[0070] S1013: Turn on the high-voltage DC power supply 1, set the output voltage of the high-voltage DC power supply 1 according to the working voltage of the power battery in the whole vehicle, and set the current limiting value of the high-voltage DC power supply 1 according to the maximum impact current of the pre-charging resistor 5 in the running state of the whole vehicle.

[0071] It can be understood that by setting the current limiting value of the high-voltage DC power supply 1, the high-voltage DC power supply 1 can automatically limit the impact current when the impact current is greater than the expected impact current, which can protect the safety of the pre-charging resistor 5 test system.

[0072] Specifically, the output voltage of the high-voltage DC power supply 1 is set to the maximum working voltage of the power battery in the whole vehicle, so as to fully examine the durability of the pre-charging resistor 5 under extreme working conditions. At the same time, the current limiting value of the high-voltage DC power supply 1 is set to the maximum impact current of the pre-charging resistor 5 in the whole vehicle.

[0073] S1014: Turn on the low-voltage DC power supply 2, adjust the low-voltage DC power supply 2 to the low-voltage power supply rated voltage, and set the current limiting value of the low-voltage DC power supply 2 according to the maximum impact current of the whole vehicle in the low-voltage loop.

[0074] Optionally, the low-voltage power supply rated voltage is 24V, and by setting the low-voltage DC power supply 2, low-voltage power supply is provided for each part of the pre-charging resistor 5 durability test system.

[0075] S101A: Send a forced discharge instruction to the motor controller 12 through the vehicle controller 3 to control the IGBT 10 to open the tube, and use the driving motor 11 to discharge the electric quantity of the charging capacitor 9.

[0076] It can be understood that before starting the durability test, there may be residual electric quantity in the charging capacitor 9, and if not discharged in advance, it may cause inaccurate charging time for the pre-charging resistor 5 durability test system, causing unnecessary influence, therefore, the residual electric quantity of the charging capacitor 9 is discharged as much as possible before the test, to ensure the reliability of the test process.

[0077] S102: receiving a test request, the vehicle control unit 3 sends a first control instruction, the pre-charge contactor 7 is closed, the high-voltage DC power supply 1 is used to charge the charging capacitor 9 with a first preset voltage value, and the first voltage value of the charging capacitor 9 is collected through the motor controller 12 and fed back to the vehicle control unit 3 to determine whether the first voltage value is within the first preset range. If the first voltage value is within the first preset range, S103 is entered, otherwise S107 is entered.

[0078] The test request simulates the request triggered by the vehicle key switch START gear starting the vehicle, which can ensure that the test state during the test is the same as the vehicle operating state, and more accurate test results can be obtained.

[0079] It should be noted that the first preset voltage value and the first preset range can be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual conditions. In actual application, due to different vehicle conditions, the supply voltage provided by the high-voltage DC power supply 1 during charging is often different, and accordingly the test conditions for the durability of the pre-charge resistor 5 are also different.

[0080] In one possible implementation, S102 specifically includes:

[0081] S1021: receiving a test request simulating the vehicle starting;

[0082] S1022: the vehicle control unit 3 sends a first control instruction to close the pre-charge contactor 7 by outputting a low-voltage rated voltage to the pre-charge contactor 7.

[0083] S102A: if the absolute value of the difference between the first voltage value and the preset voltage value is greater than the preset voltage difference, it is prompted that the pre-charge resistor 5 fails the test, the low-voltage DC power supply 2 switch is turned off, and the test is stopped.

[0084] It can be understood that if the absolute value of the difference between the first voltage value and the first preset voltage value is greater than the preset voltage difference, it indicates that the pre-charge resistor 5 does not effectively protect the charging circuit and does not avoid the large current impact on various devices during the power-on process. At this time, the pre-charge resistor 5 can be directly determined as failing the test.

[0085] S103: if the absolute value of the difference between the first voltage value and the first preset voltage value is less than the preset voltage difference, a second control instruction is sent to close the main contactor 8 and disconnect the pre-charge contactor 7, the charging capacitor 9 is fully charged, and the second voltage value of the charging capacitor 9 is collected through the motor controller 12 and fed back to the vehicle control unit 3.

[0086] Optionally, the preset voltage difference is 20V.

[0087] It can be understood that when the absolute value of the difference between the first voltage value and the first preset voltage value is less than the preset voltage difference, it indicates that the preset voltage difference between the two ends of the charging capacitor 9 and the high-voltage power supply is not more than 20V, at this time, the main contactor 8 is closed, the pre-charging contactor 7 is disconnected, and the charging capacitor 9 is gradually charged to prevent the high voltage from directly charging the charging capacitor 9 with large current to damage the durability test system of the pre-charging resistor 5.

[0088] S104: Determine whether the second voltage value is within the second preset range. If the second voltage value is within the second preset range, feed back the pre-charging completion instruction to the vehicle controller 3 through the motor controller 12, and issue a discharge request, otherwise, go to S107.

[0089] Optionally, the second preset range is within ±20V of the first preset voltage value.

[0090] It should be noted that during the charging process, if the voltage at both ends of the charging capacitor 9 is not within the range of ±20V of the output voltage of the high-voltage DC power supply 1 after 1s of charging, it indicates that the voltage is abnormal, and this condition indicates that the pre-charging resistor 5 has not passed the simulated durability test required by the vehicle.

[0091] S105: The motor controller 12 receives the discharge request, turns on the discharge loop, and discharges the charge of the charging capacitor 9. The third voltage value of the charging capacitor 9 is collected through the motor controller 12, and it is determined whether the third voltage value is lower than the second preset voltage value. If the third voltage value is lower than the second preset voltage value, feed back the active discharge completion instruction to the vehicle controller 3, complete the discharge, otherwise, go to S107.

[0092] Optionally, the second preset voltage value is 60V.

[0093] It can be understood that if the voltage at both ends of the charging capacitor 9 is above 60V after 1s of discharging, it indicates that the voltage is abnormal, and the vehicle controller 3 issues a third control instruction to stop the test.

[0094] In one possible implementation, S105 specifically includes:

[0095] S1051: The motor controller 12 receives the active discharge instruction, controls the IGBT 10 to open the tube, the discharge loop is turned on, and the charge of the charging capacitor 9 is discharged through the coil winding of the driving motor 11;

[0096] S1052: Active discharge is completed, and the active discharge completion instruction is fed back to the vehicle controller 3.

[0097] S106: Set a preset number of cycles, and repeatedly execute S102 to S105.

[0098] Wherein, the person skilled in the art can select the size of the preset cycle number according to the actual situation. It can be understood that, due to different vehicle conditions or different vehicle parameters, the requirements for the pre-charge resistor 5 used in different vehicles are also different, therefore, in the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system, the setting of the preset cycle number is not the larger the better, but the preset cycle number should be reasonably set according to the vehicle running condition.

[0099] S106A: record the surface temperature of the pre-charge resistor 5 by the multi-channel temperature rise recorder 4, and form a temperature rise curve, in the case of abnormal temperature rise curve, turn off the low-voltage DC power supply 2 switch and stop the test.

[0100] It can be understood that, by monitoring the surface temperature of the pre-charge resistor 5 in real time, it can be judged in real time during the test of the preset cycle number that if the pre-charge resistor 5 is abnormal, the low-voltage DC power supply 2 is turned off by the operator to stop the test, indicating that the pre-charge resistor 5 being tested does not meet the durability test requirements.

[0101] S107: the vehicle controller 3 sends a third control instruction to stop the test.

[0102] Compared with the prior art, the present application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0103] In the present application, the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system is provided with a charging circuit including the pre-charge resistor 5 and a discharging circuit including the driving motor 11, the pre-charge resistor 5 is tested in the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system according to the durability use requirements by simulating the vehicle power-on and power-off process in actual application, the surface temperature of the pre-charge resistor 5 is collected in real time by the multi-channel temperature rise recorder 4, the voltage value across the charging capacitor 9 is collected in real time by the motor controller 12, during the test, if the surface temperature is abnormal, the voltage value across the charging capacitor 9 does not meet the vehicle power-on and power-off requirements or the preset cycle number is not reached, the pre-charge resistor 5 durability test system is controlled by the vehicle controller 3 to stop the test in time, whether the pre-charge resistor 5 meets the durability use requirements is finally determined by the test result, the operation is simple, the test result is reliable, and the selection of the pre-charge resistor 5 is guided.

[0104] It should be noted that the above embodiments can be freely combined as needed. The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be noted that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, which should be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
