The heating management of electric vehicles includes air-conditioning heating and battery temperature increase. If the air-conditioning is turned on or the battery is slowly charged in a low-temperature environment, the battery water circuit and the air-conditioning water circuit need to be heated in advance by the heater to increase the battery temperature and achieve air-conditioning heating.

[0003] However, heating the battery water circuit and the air conditioning water circuit by the heater is to reheat the battery after the battery temperature gradually drops to the set threshold, and stop heating after heating to the set threshold, and repeat this cycle. Such a cycle will greatly increase the slow charging time of the battery and extend the heating time of the air conditioner. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a heating management method and device for an electric vehicle, the main purpose of which is to reduce the slow charging time of the battery and the heating time of the air conditioner.

[0009] If the conditions are met, the battery and air conditioning circuit are heated through the charger to achieve heating management of the electric vehicle.

[0010] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a heating management device for an electric vehicle, the device comprising:

[0011] An acquisition unit is used to obtain the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, and battery charging status sent by the battery management system, the air conditioning working status and air conditioning circuit water temperature sent by the air conditioning system, and the real-time charger water temperature sent by the charger;

[0012] a determining unit, configured to determine whether the battery meets a condition for being heated by the charger based on the battery minimum temperature, the battery maximum temperature, the battery charging state, and the real-time water temperature of the charger obtained by the obtaining unit, and to determine whether the air-conditioning circuit meets a condition for being heated by the charger based on the real-time water temperature of the charger, the air-conditioning circuit water temperature, and the air-conditioning operating state obtained by the obtaining unit;

[0013] The heating unit is used to heat the battery and the air-conditioning circuit through the charger if the determining unit determines that the conditions are met, so as to realize heating management of the electric vehicle.

[0014] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, according to a third aspect of the present invention, a storage medium is provided, which includes a stored program, wherein when the program is running, the device where the storage medium is located is controlled to execute the heating management method of the electric vehicle according to the first aspect.

[0015] In order to achieve the above object, according to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a processor is provided, which is used to run a program, wherein the program executes the heating management method of the electric vehicle according to the first aspect when running.

[0016] By means of the above technical scheme, the present invention provides a heating management method and device for an electric vehicle, wherein the battery management system can first send the battery minimum temperature, the battery maximum temperature, and the battery charging status to the vehicle controller, the air-conditioning system can first send the air-conditioning working status and the air-conditioning circuit water temperature to the vehicle controller, and the charger can send the charger real-time water temperature to the vehicle controller. Afterwards, the vehicle controller can obtain the battery minimum temperature, the battery maximum temperature, and the battery charging status sent by the battery management system, the air-conditioning working status and the air-conditioning circuit water temperature sent by the air-conditioning system, and the charger real-time water temperature sent by the charger, and then determine whether the battery meets the conditions for heating by the charger based on the battery minimum temperature, the battery maximum temperature, the battery charging status and the charger real-time water temperature, and at the same time determine whether the air-conditioning circuit meets the conditions for heating by the charger based on the charger real-time water temperature, the air-conditioning circuit water temperature and the air-conditioning working status. If the conditions are met, the battery and the air-conditioning circuit can be directly heated by the charger to realize heating management of the electric vehicle. Since the charger generates heat when working, the charger can be used directly to heat the battery and air-conditioning circuit. In this way, the slow charging time of the battery can be reduced to a certain extent, and the air-conditioning can be heated quickly. There is no need to use a heater to circulate heat for the battery water circuit and the air-conditioning water circuit in advance, and it can also save energy consumption for circulating heat for the battery water circuit and the air-conditioning water circuit in advance through the heater.

[0023] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0024] When an electric vehicle is in a low-temperature environment, the heating management of the electric vehicle is very important. The heating management of the electric vehicle includes air-conditioning heating and battery temperature increase. If the air-conditioning is turned on or the battery is slowly charged in a low-temperature environment, the battery water path and the air-conditioning water path need to be heated in advance by the heater to increase the battery temperature and realize air-conditioning heating. However, the heating of the battery water path and the air-conditioning water path by the heater is to reheat the battery after the battery temperature gradually drops to the set threshold, and stop heating after heating to the set threshold, and repeat this cycle. Such a cycle will greatly increase the slow charging time of the battery and extend the air-conditioning heating time. To this end, the present invention provides a heating management method for an electric vehicle, which can reduce the slow charging time of the battery and the air-conditioning heating time, and its specific execution steps are as follows: Figure 1 Shown, including:

[0025] 101. Obtain the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, and battery charging status sent by the battery management system, the air conditioning operating status and air conditioning circuit water temperature sent by the air conditioning system, and the real-time charger water temperature sent by the charger.

[0026] In the present invention, there are a vehicle controller, a battery management system, a charger, an air conditioning system, a water pump, and a three-way valve. The execution process of the present invention is also the interaction process between the vehicle controller, the battery management system, the charger, the air conditioning system, the water pump, and the three-way valve.

[0027] At the beginning of the process of the present invention, the battery management system will send the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature and battery charging status to the vehicle controller in real time. At the same time, the air-conditioning system will also send the air-conditioning working status and air-conditioning circuit water temperature to the vehicle controller in real time. At the same time, the charger will also send the charger water temperature to the vehicle controller in real time.

[0028] Therefore, in this invention, the vehicle controller can obtain the battery's minimum temperature, maximum temperature, and battery charge status from the battery management system, the air conditioning operating status and air conditioning circuit water temperature from the air conditioning system, and the real-time charger water temperature from the charger. Therefore, the implementation of this invention is the vehicle controller.

[0029] 102. Determine whether the battery meets the conditions for being heated by the charger based on the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, battery charging status, and real-time charger water temperature. Determine whether the air conditioning circuit meets the conditions for being heated by the charger based on the real-time charger water temperature, air conditioning circuit water temperature, and air conditioning operating status.

[0030] After receiving the battery's minimum and maximum temperatures, the battery's charge status, and the charger's real-time water temperature, the vehicle controller can perform a comprehensive logical judgment based on these values to determine whether the battery meets the conditions for charger heating. Simultaneously, after receiving the air conditioning circuit water temperature and air conditioning operating status, the controller can also perform a comprehensive logical judgment based on these values, combined with the charger's real-time water temperature, to determine whether the air conditioning circuit meets the conditions for charger heating. If so, step 103 is executed. If not, the battery and air conditioning circuit can be heated using a designated heater.

[0031] Specifically, to determine whether the battery meets the conditions for being heated by the charger, the battery's minimum temperature, battery's maximum temperature, battery charging status, and charger's real-time water temperature may each meet a certain condition, or the battery's minimum temperature, battery's maximum temperature, battery charging status, and charger's real-time water temperature may meet a certain condition; similarly, to determine whether the air-conditioning circuit meets the conditions for being heated by the charger, the air-conditioning circuit water temperature, air-conditioning working status, and charger's real-time water temperature may each meet a certain condition, or the air-conditioning circuit water temperature, air-conditioning working status, and charger's real-time water temperature may meet a certain condition.

[0032] 103. The battery and air conditioning system are heated by the charger to achieve heating management of electric vehicles.

[0033] After determining in step 102 that the air conditioning system and the battery meet the conditions for being heated by the charger, the battery and the air conditioning circuit can be heated by the charger to achieve heating management of the electric vehicle.

[0034] Specifically, when the charger heats the battery, the first water pump and the first three-way valve may be opened to allow water of a specified temperature in the charger circuit to flow into the first water pump and the first three-way valve, and finally flow into the battery circuit, so that the water from the charger heats the battery circuit, and finally heats the battery; when the charger heats the air-conditioning circuit, the second water pump and the second three-way valve may be opened to allow water of a specified temperature in the charger circuit to flow into the second water pump and the second three-way valve, and finally flow into the air-conditioning circuit, so that the water from the charger heats the coolant in the air-conditioning circuit, and finally heats the air-conditioning system.

[0035] The designated temperature may be 40 degrees, but is not necessarily limited to 40 degrees, and may be reasonably set according to specific circumstances.

[0036] It should be noted that the first water pump, the first three-way valve; the second water pump and the second three-way valve can be set in combination with the charger circuit, the battery location, and the air-conditioning circuit location, but it is necessary to ensure that the water in the charger circuit can flow through the first water pump and the first three-way valve and finally flow into the battery circuit, so that the water from the charger heats the battery circuit and finally heats the battery. At the same time, the water can flow into the second water pump and the second three-way valve to heat the coolant in the air-conditioning circuit through the water from the charger, thereby realizing heating of the air-conditioning system.

[0037] Based on the above Figure 1It can be seen from the implementation method that the present invention provides a heating management method for an electric vehicle, the battery management system can first send the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, and battery charging status to the vehicle controller, the air-conditioning system can first send the air-conditioning working status and air-conditioning loop water temperature to the vehicle controller, and the charger can send the charger real-time water temperature to the vehicle controller. Afterwards, the vehicle controller can obtain the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, battery charging status sent by the battery management system, the air-conditioning working status and air-conditioning loop water temperature sent by the air-conditioning system, and the charger real-time water temperature sent by the charger, and then determine whether the battery meets the conditions for heating by the charger based on the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, battery charging status and charger real-time water temperature, and at the same time determine whether the air-conditioning loop meets the conditions for heating by the charger based on the charger real-time water temperature, air-conditioning loop water temperature and air-conditioning working status. If the conditions are met, the battery and air-conditioning loop can be directly heated by the charger to realize heating management of the electric vehicle. Since the charger generates heat when working, the charger can be used directly to heat the battery and air-conditioning circuit. In this way, the slow charging time of the battery can be reduced to a certain extent, and the air-conditioning can be heated quickly. There is no need to use a heater to heat the battery water circuit and the air-conditioning water circuit in advance, and it can also save the energy consumption of circulating heating the battery water circuit and the air-conditioning water circuit in advance through the heater.

[0038] Furthermore, as a Figure 1 The embodiment shown in the figure is refined and expanded. The embodiment of the present invention also provides another heating management method for electric vehicles, such as Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0039] 201. Obtain the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, and battery charging status sent by the battery management system, the air conditioning working status and air conditioning circuit water temperature sent by the air conditioning system, and the real-time charger water temperature sent by the charger.

[0040] Among them, the implementation method of step 201 is the same as that of step 101, and can achieve the same technical effect and solve the same technical problem, so it will not be repeated here.

[0041] 202. Determine whether the battery meets the conditions for being heated by the charger based on the battery minimum temperature, the battery maximum temperature, the battery charging state, and the real-time water temperature of the charger.

[0042] In this step, after receiving the battery minimum temperature, battery maximum temperature, battery charging status and charger real-time water temperature, four conditions can be determined, namely: whether the battery minimum temperature is within the preset temperature range; whether the charger real-time water temperature is greater than the first specified value of the battery minimum temperature; whether the battery charging status is slow charging; whether the battery maximum temperature is less than the preset temperature threshold.

[0043] If all four of the above conditions are met simultaneously, that is, the battery minimum temperature is within the preset temperature range, the charger's real-time water temperature is greater than the first specified value of the battery minimum temperature, the battery charging state is slow charging, and the battery maximum temperature is less than the preset temperature threshold, then it can be determined that the battery meets the conditions for being heated by the charger. If these conditions are met, step 204 can be executed.

[0044] Since there is a preheating stage for heating the battery and air-conditioning circuit, the charger water temperature is not used for heating during the preheating stage. Therefore, the preset temperature range is located after the preheating stage. As an example, the preset temperature range can be 3 degrees to 8 degrees, or other reasonably set temperatures; the first specified value can be 5 degrees, or other reasonably set temperatures; the preset temperature threshold can be 35 degrees, or other reasonably set temperatures.

[0045] The real-time water temperature of the charger is greater than the first specified value of the minimum battery temperature. For example, if the first specified value is 5 degrees, the real-time water temperature of the charger may be 5 degrees higher than the minimum battery temperature.

[0046] 203. Determine whether the air conditioning circuit meets the conditions for heating by the charger based on the real-time water temperature of the charger, the water temperature of the air conditioning circuit, and the operating status of the air conditioning.

[0047] In this step, after determining the real-time water temperature of the charger, the water temperature of the air-conditioning circuit and the working status of the air-conditioning, it can be determined whether the air-conditioning circuit meets the conditions for heating by the charger based on the real-time water temperature of the charger, the water temperature of the air-conditioning circuit and the working status of the air-conditioning.

[0048] Specifically, two conditions may be determined: whether the real-time water temperature of the charger is greater than a second specified value of the water temperature of the air-conditioning circuit; and whether the working state of the air-conditioning is heating.

[0049] If both of the above conditions are met, that is, the real-time water temperature of the charger is greater than the second specified value of the water temperature of the air conditioning circuit, and the air conditioning is in heating mode, then the air conditioning circuit is determined to meet the conditions for heating by the charger. If the conditions are met, step 204 can be executed.

[0050] The second specified value may be 10 degrees, or other reasonably set temperatures.

[0051] The real-time water temperature of the charger is greater than the second specified value of the water temperature of the air-conditioning circuit. If the second specified value is 10 degrees, for example, the real-time water temperature of the charger may be 10 degrees higher than the water temperature of the air-conditioning circuit.

[0052] 204. The battery and air conditioning circuit are heated by the charger to achieve heating management of the electric vehicle.

[0053] Among them, some implementation methods of step 204 are the same as those of step 103, and can achieve the same technical effects and solve the same technical problems, and will not be repeated here.

[0054] In addition, after the battery and the air conditioning circuit are heated by the charger, it can also be determined whether a designated heater can be turned on or turned on with a delay to heat the battery and the air conditioning circuit, or whether the designated heater should not be turned on.

[0055] Detecting whether the heater can be turned on with a delay: when it is detected that the battery charging state is slow charging and the real-time water temperature of the charger is higher than the water temperature of the air-conditioning system water channel by a second specified value and the second water pump and the second three-way valve are turned on, it is determined that the specified heater can be turned on with a delay.

[0056] Detection shows that the heater can be turned on: When it is detected that the water temperature of the charger is always less than a third specified value within a preset time period, it is determined that the specified heater can be turned on. At this time, a heating request can be sent to the specified heater to use the specified heater to heat the air-conditioning circuit and the battery. In this way, it can be discovered in time that the water temperature of the charger is not high enough, so that the battery and the air-conditioning circuit can be heated in time by other methods when the water temperature is not high enough; if the real-time water temperature of the charger is 40 degrees, the specified heater can be turned off.

[0057] The third designated value may be 40 degrees, or other reasonably settable temperatures.

[0058] In addition, after heating the battery and air conditioning circuit, there will naturally be a time to stop heating.

[0059] Since the battery management system, air conditioning system, and charger all send data to the vehicle controller in real time, the vehicle controller can monitor the data sent by each system in real time.

[0060] When the vehicle controller detects that the battery minimum temperature is greater than the second specified value, or the battery minimum temperature is less than the fourth specified value, or the battery maximum temperature is greater than the third specified value, or the real-time water temperature of the charger is less than the fourth specified value of the battery minimum temperature, or the BMS charging status is not slow charging, it is determined that the battery meets the conditions for stopping heating, and the first water pump and the first three-way valve are closed to stop heating the battery through the charger.

[0061] At the same time, if the vehicle controller detects that the difference between the real-time water temperature of the charger and the water temperature of the air-conditioning circuit is less than the first specified value, or the air-conditioning working state is off, it is determined that the air-conditioning circuit meets the conditions for stopping heating, and the second water pump and the second three-way valve are closed to stop heating the air-conditioning circuit through the charger.
