In particular, the vibration characteristics of the battery pack need to be matched with the whole vehicle in the design, and it is also commonly used for its durability life evaluation. Currently, there are various toolings for battery pack vibration testing, and their structures are also different.

[0027] Most of the current tooling for battery pack vibration testing does not perform vibration analysis and optimization in the early data stage. At the same time, due to considering the accuracy impact of the tooling, it takes a long time to build a data model for the tooling, and it also takes a long time to perform modal and vibration calculations for the entire tooling package. Sometimes, multiple optimization iterations may be required. At this time, it may take more time for engineers lacking experience, thus affecting the product development cycle and iteration efficiency.

[0028] Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide a method and device for determining the modal frequency of a battery pack tooling structure. By equivalently replacing the entire base with the installation points between the base and the tooling bracket for modal frequency calculation, the optimization iteration calculation and verification cycle of the battery pack performance are greatly shortened, and the test efficiency of the battery pack tooling structure is improved, as follows:

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which shows a flowchart of a method for determining the modal frequency of a battery pack tooling structure provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the method for determining the modal frequency of a battery pack tooling structure provided by an embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:

[0030] S100. Divide the analysis model of the battery pack tooling to be tested into multiple sub-analysis models.

[0031] Among them, the sub-analysis model includes a vibration tooling assembly and a battery pack assembly. Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 which shows a structural schematic diagram of a vibration tooling assembly provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 2 shown, the vibration tooling assembly includes a base 1 and a tooling bracket 2. Among them, the base 1 and the tooling bracket 2 are fixedly connected together through mounting points, and the mounting points can be fixing connectors such as bolts.

[0032] In a specific embodiment, after obtaining the analysis model of the battery pack tooling to be measured, according to the installation contact points between the battery pack assembly and the tooling bracket, the equivalent model method of the detailed model is used to perform equivalent processing on the battery pack assembly, so as to form the boundary constraint conditions for solving the modal frequency of the analysis model of the battery pack tooling to be measured subsequently.

[0033] S200. Determine the model material and model stiffness attributes corresponding to each sub-analysis model.

[0034] In a specific embodiment, the model material corresponding to the tooling bracket can be made of aluminum or steel, and its corresponding model material is determined according to the actual situation of the tooling bracket and the base in the analysis model of the battery pack tooling to be measured.

[0035] The model stiffness attributes include at least one of the following items: model material stiffness, Poisson's ratio, and material density.

[0036] S300. According to each mounting point between the tooling bracket and the base and the model material and model stiffness attributes corresponding to each sub-analysis model, determine the equivalent stiffness vector formed by each mounting point in multiple preset directions.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the tooling bracket is fixedly connected to the base through the corresponding mounting points, and the battery pack assembly is fixedly arranged on the tooling bracket.

[0038] Specifically, in the present application, to improve the calculation efficiency of the modal frequency, the overall base is not considered, and only the stiffness of the mounting points between the base and the tooling bracket needs to be considered. Through the stiffness of the corresponding mounting points between the tooling bracket and the base, the modal frequency corresponding to the analysis model of the battery pack tooling to be measured is calculated by using the method of stiffness equivalence, which can greatly improve the calculation efficiency.

[0039] In a specific embodiment, the equivalent stiffness vector formed by each mounting point in multiple preset directions is determined by the following method:

[0040] For each preset direction of the installation point, apply a preset unit force in the preset direction to obtain the displacement generated by the installation point in the preset direction. For each preset direction of the installation point, determine the stiffness value generated by the installation point in the preset direction according to the preset unit force and the generated displacement. The stiffness values generated by each preset direction form the equivalent stiffness vector corresponding to the installation point.

[0041] In one example, when applying unit forces in six directions corresponding to a certain installation point, the stiffnesses corresponding to the installation point in the six directions can be obtained. For example, the stiffness of the installation point in the X direction is about 1.4e7 N / mm, and the unit force is usually 1 N, which can be set according to actual needs. Specifically, by applying an external force in a certain direction of the installation point, the deformation amount of the installation point in this direction, that is, the generated elastic displacement, can be obtained. Further, according to the stiffness calculation formula, the stiffness value of the installation point in a certain direction can be determined.

[0042] In a specific embodiment, the equivalent stiffness vector corresponding to a certain installation point is (X: 1.4e7 N / mm, Y: 1.4e7 N / mm, Z: 3e7 N / mm), indicating that the stiffness values of the installation point in the three directions of X, Y, and Z are 1.4e7 N / mm, 1.4e7 N / mm, and 3e7 N / mm respectively.

[0043] In another specific embodiment, for the stiffness value generated by each installation point in each preset direction, the method further includes:

[0044] If the stiffness value generated by the preset direction is greater than the preset stiffness threshold, then determine the preset stiffness threshold as the stiffness value generated by the installation point in the preset direction.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, for example, the equivalent stiffness vector obtained by calculating a certain installation point along six preset directions is (1.4e7 N / mm, 1.4e7 N / mm, 3e7 N / mm, 1e9 N / mm, 1e8 N / mm, 1e8 N / mm), where the preset stiffness threshold is 1e8 N / mm. Then, 1e9 N / mm is greater than 1e8 N / mm. Therefore, 1e9 N / mm is replaced with 1e8 N / mm, and the finally obtained equivalent stiffness vector is (1.4e7 N / mm, 1.4e7 N / mm, 3e7 N / mm, 1e8 N / mm, 1e8 N / mm, 1e8 N / mm).

[0046] Return Figure 1 , S400. Use the equivalent stiffness vector corresponding to each installation point to determine the modal frequency corresponding to the analysis model of the battery pack tooling to be tested.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the steps of determining the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured by using the equivalent stiffness vectors corresponding to each installation point include:

[0048] Construct an equivalent stiffness matrix K according to the equivalent stiffness vectors corresponding to each installation point, where each element k in the equivalent stiffness matrix K ij represents the stiffness value of the i-th installation point in the j-th preset direction. Perform structural dynamics analysis on the large-scale tooling by using the finite element method, and construct the mass matrix M of the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured. Each element m in the mass matrix M p represents the mass of the p-th sub-analysis model. Determine the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured according to the equivalent stiffness matrix K and the mass matrix M.

[0049] In a specific embodiment, for example, the equivalent stiffness matrix is composed of the equivalent stiffness vectors (1.4e7 N / mm, 1.4e7 N / mm, 3e7 N / mm) and the equivalent stiffness vector (1.8e7 N / mm, 1.4e7 N / mm, 1.8e7 N / mm). Among them, each row represents the equivalent stiffness vector formed by an installation point in the three directions of X, Y, and Z. Among them, k 21 represents that the stiffness value of the second installation point in the X direction is 1.8e7.

[0050] In the present application, p = 3, and each element m in the mass matrix M p includes the mass of the tooling bracket, the mass of the base, and the mass of the battery pack assembly.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the steps of determining the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured according to the equivalent stiffness matrix K and the mass matrix M include:

[0052] Decouple the equivalent stiffness matrix K and the mass matrix M respectively to obtain the modal stiffness and modal mass corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured. Use the modal stiffness and modal mass corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured to determine the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured.

[0053] In another specific embodiment, the steps of determining the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured by using the modal stiffness and modal mass corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured include:

[0054] Calculate the ratio between the modal stiffness and the modal mass, and determine the square root of the ratio as the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured.

[0055] In a specific embodiment, the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured is determined by the following formula:

[0056] W r 2 = K r / M r

[0057] In this formula, W r represents the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured, K r represents the modal stiffness, and M r represents the modal mass.

[0058] Specifically, this application uses the eigenvalue mass normalization method and combines the boundary conditions given by the battery pack assembly to calculate and obtain the modal frequency and modal vibration mode corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured.

[0059] In another preferred embodiment, the method of this application further includes:

[0060] Judge whether the modal frequency is within a preset frequency range. If the modal frequency is within the preset frequency range, it is determined that the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured passes the frequency test. If the modal frequency is not within the preset frequency range, it is determined that the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured fails the frequency test.

[0061] In the embodiment of this application, the purpose of determining the modal frequency of the battery pack tooling structure is to judge whether the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured meets the actual design requirements. If it does not meet the design requirements, it will cause the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured to fail in actual application, and further cause the relevant experiments of the battery pack to be unable to be carried out. Therefore, through the calculated modal frequency and combined with the preset frequency range, the stability of the battery pack tooling structure can be judged. For example, when the modal frequency corresponding to the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured is greater than 230HZ, it is considered that the tooling analysis model of the battery pack to be measured is relatively stable and can be used for subsequent experiments.

[0062] The traditional calculation process of the modal frequency with a base takes about more than 3 hours to calculate the corresponding modal frequency. Compared with the traditional calculation of the modal frequency with a base, this application shortens the modal frequency calculation time to within 5 minutes by means of equivalent bases at the installation points, greatly reducing the calculation time and improving the calculation efficiency.
