[0003] With the increasing popularity of electric vehicles (EVs), their charging performance is receiving more and more attention. EV charging typically employs a constant current mode, where the charging station outputs current based on the charging request current sent by the Battery Management System (BMS). The magnitude of the charging request current is primarily determined by the characteristics of the lithium-ion battery and the vehicle's overall capacity; that is, the initial charging request current based on battery characteristics serves as the target charging current. Under certain operating conditions (such as low temperature or high SoC), the initial charging request current is usually relatively small to protect the lithium-ion battery, resulting in the charging speed failing to meet expectations. Therefore, how to further improve the charging speed of EVs is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0041] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
[0042] Figure 1 A flowchart of a charging current control method provided by the present invention is shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:
[0043] Step S100: Based on the sum of the maximum allowable charging current value of the vehicle battery and the current consumed by the high voltage accessory, obtain the charging current value required by the vehicle.
[0044] It should be noted that the executing entity of the method in this embodiment can be a computer terminal device with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a computer or a vehicle-mounted computer; it can also be a server device with the same or similar functions, or a cloud server with similar functions. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this. For ease of understanding, this embodiment and the following embodiments will be described using a vehicle-mounted computer as an example.
[0045] It is understandable that the current consumed by the aforementioned high-voltage accessories could be the current consumed by high-voltage accessories such as air conditioners.
[0046] Furthermore, the steps for calculating the charging current demand at the vehicle end may also include:
[0047] Step S101: Based on the current state of charge of the vehicle battery, the current temperature value, and the battery charging MAP table in the BMS battery system, obtain the maximum allowable charging current value of the vehicle battery.
[0048] It is understandable that the maximum allowable charging current value of the vehicle battery mentioned above can be obtained from the battery charging MAP table in the BMS battery management system. Under different states of charge (SOC) and temperature conditions in the battery charging MAP table, the vehicle battery has different maximum operating charging current values.
[0049] Step S102: Calculate the current consumed by the high-voltage accessory based on the AC power, DC-DC power and current voltage of the vehicle battery, and then calculate the charging current demand value of the vehicle based on the current consumption and the maximum operating charging current value.
[0050] Specifically, the formula for calculating the charging current demand at the vehicle end is as follows:
[0051] I_0 = Maximum allowable charging current of battery + [(AC power + DC-DC power) / Current battery voltage];
[0052] The maximum allowable charging current of the battery is obtained by the BMS (Battery Management System) based on the battery charging MAP table. Different charging current values correspond to different SOC (State of Charge) and temperature conditions.
[0053] In this embodiment, the charging current demand of the vehicle is calculated by comprehensively considering the charging capacity of the vehicle battery, the power consumption (AC power) of high-voltage accessories such as air conditioning, and the DC-DC power. This allows for the improvement of battery charging efficiency by combining the maximum charging capacity of the vehicle battery. Furthermore, since the information of the vehicle battery can be dynamically acquired, the charging current demand can be adjusted under different states of charge and temperature conditions, thereby ensuring that the vehicle battery is always in a highly efficient charging state. This reduces the charging time of the vehicle battery and improves the driver's driving experience.
[0054] Step S200: Based on the sum of the charging demand current value and the maximum allowable charging current value at the charging pile, the summation result is compared with the national standard fast charging current limit value to find the maximum value, and the maximum value is set as the charging current value;
[0055] It is understandable that the maximum allowable charging current value at the pile end can be obtained by obtaining the maximum allowable charging current value at the pile end based on the signal CML_MaxOutput_Current sent by the pile end. Since the GB 27930 standard specifies that this current is negative, the absolute value needs to be taken.
[0056] In practical implementation, it is necessary to consider both the vehicle-side charging capacity and the charging pile's output capacity. It is also necessary to take into account the current-carrying capacity of the cables and charging bases in the national standard fast charging, thus requiring the charging current to be limited to below 250A. Therefore, the maximum allowable charging current can be calculated comprehensively.
[0057] I_1=Min[Min(I_0, |CML_MaxOutput_Current|), 250A].
[0058] Step S300: Based on the real-time acquired charging port temperature value, obtain its corresponding charging current coefficient f;
[0059] In practice, since overheating of the charging port can cause overheating problems, the charging current coefficient needs to be dynamically adjusted according to the temperature of the charging port during the charging process to reduce the occurrence of overheating problems. Common overheating problems mainly include situations such as vehicle fire and spontaneous combustion.
[0060] Furthermore, considering the issue of overheating at the charging port during charging, derating charging is implemented, and strategies for calculating the charging current coefficient include:
[0061] a. When the charging port temperature is <105℃, the charging current coefficient is 1;
[0062] b. When the charging port temperature is between 105 and 110°C, the charging current coefficient is 0.8;
[0063] c. When the charging port temperature is between 110 and 120 degrees Celsius, the charging current coefficient is 0.5.
[0064] d. When the charging port temperature is >= 120℃, the machine will shut down due to over-temperature, the charging current coefficient will be 0, and the charging current will be 0.
[0065] In summary, the actual charging current request can be obtained as: I_2=f*I_1.
[0066] In this embodiment, by acquiring the temperature value of the charging port in real time and using the temperature value as the adjustment basis, the charging current coefficient is dynamically adjusted according to the preset system adjustment strategy, thereby realizing derated charging of the vehicle battery. This greatly reduces the probability of vehicle spontaneous combustion caused by excessive charging current leading to excessive charging port temperature, and reduces charging stoppage caused by current mismatch. It significantly improves the charging safety of the vehicle battery, enhances charging efficiency, and improves charging stability.
[0067] Step S400: Obtain the actual charging current value based on the charging current value and the charging current coefficient, and charge the vehicle battery based on the actual charging current value.
[0068] In practice, during the initial charging stage, the vehicle battery can be charged according to the above charging current value and the above charging current coefficient. As the state of charge of the vehicle battery and the temperature of the charging port change, the charging current coefficient will be adjusted in real time. In order to reduce the overcurrent fault caused by sudden changes in charging current, the rate of change of current also needs to be adjusted, thereby optimizing the entire charging process of the vehicle battery, thereby improving efficiency and charging safety.
[0069] Understandably, given the deficiencies in the background technology, this invention proposes a charging current control method. The method includes: obtaining the vehicle's charging current demand value based on the sum of the maximum allowable charging current value of the vehicle battery and the current consumed by the high-voltage accessories; calculating the charging current value based on the charging current demand value, the maximum allowable charging current value of the charging pile, and the national standard fast charging current limit value; obtaining the corresponding charging current coefficient based on the real-time acquired charging port temperature value; and charging the vehicle battery according to the charging current value and the charging current coefficient. This invention calculates the vehicle's charging current demand value using the vehicle battery's charging current demand value, AC power, DC-DC power, and the current voltage of the vehicle battery, then calculates the charging current value of the charging pile, calculates the charging coefficient based on the charging port temperature value, and charges the vehicle battery according to the charging current value and the charging current coefficient. This effectively reduces current faults caused by mismatch between the vehicle and charging pile responses due to charging current regulation, greatly improves charging efficiency, reduces charging time, and provides over-temperature protection based on the charging port temperature, reducing the occurrence of accidents caused by temperature during charging.
[0070] In one possible embodiment, after the step of obtaining the actual charging current value based on the charging current value and the charging current coefficient, and charging the vehicle battery based on the actual charging current value, the method further includes:
[0071] Step S500: Obtain the state of charge of the vehicle battery in real time, and set the charging current adjustment rate of the vehicle battery based on the state of charge.
[0072] In practical implementation, after calculating the real-time charging current of the vehicle, the current regulation rate needs to be considered. This is because the allowable charging current varies at different states of charge (SOCs) and changes in a stepped manner; additionally, the demand current changes caused by sudden switching on and off of the air conditioning during charging must be taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary to consider system instability caused by sudden current changes, leading to faults such as overcurrent, and to adjust the current change rate accordingly. Since the battery charging capacity varies under different SOC conditions—for example, the allowable charging capacity is lower at lower and higher SOCs, and higher at intermediate SOCs—the allowable charging current must also be considered for different SOC ranges.
[0073] Furthermore, the aforementioned current regulation speed adjustment strategy also includes:
[0074] When the state of charge is less than 10% or greater than 90%, the charging current regulation rate of the vehicle battery is set to 10A / s; when the state of charge is greater than or equal to 10% or less than or equal to 90%, the charging current regulation rate of the vehicle battery is set to 20A / s.
[0075] Furthermore, since different batteries will have different charging current MAPs, the above-mentioned current adjustment rate can also be calibrated according to the actual charging of the vehicle.
[0076] Furthermore, since GB 18487 stipulates that the output current at the charging station must decrease at a rate of at least 100A / s at the end of charging, the current requested by the vehicle must decrease rapidly at the end of charging. Therefore, at the end of charging (including the end of normal charging and charging stoppage due to fault), the vehicle will set the requested current to 0.
[0077] In this embodiment, the allowable charging current varies at different states of charge (SOC) of the battery, and this variation is stepped. Furthermore, the demand current changes caused by sudden switching on and off of the air conditioning during charging must be considered. Therefore, system instability due to sudden current changes leading to overcurrent and other faults needs to be addressed, necessitating adjustment of the current change rate. By real-time monitoring of the vehicle battery's state of charge, the charging current adjustment rate can be set, effectively reducing the probability of current faults caused by vehicle-to-charger mismatch due to charging current adjustment.
[0078] In one possible embodiment, after the step of obtaining the actual charging current value based on the charging current value and the charging current coefficient, and charging the vehicle battery based on the actual charging current value, the method further includes:
[0079] Step S600: When the maximum output voltage at the charging pile is less than the maximum voltage of the vehicle battery and the vehicle's charge status is greater than 95%, the output current at the charging pile is acquired in real time. When the output current is less than 5A and the duration is greater than 2 minutes, the charging is terminated.
[0080] In practical implementation, for batteries with high-voltage platforms, when using charging stations, the maximum output voltage at the charging station may be lower than the battery's full-charge voltage. For example, if the battery's maximum voltage is 760V, when using a 750V charging station, as charging progresses and the voltage approaches 750V, the charging station will enter a constant-voltage float charging state, maintaining a small current output until it reaches 750V and stops. To avoid excessively long charging times at the end, the vehicle needs to implement timeout handling. A possible strategy is: if SOC > 95%, and the charging station's output current |CCS_OutputCurrent| < 5A for 2 minutes, then the vehicle actively terminates charging. The current threshold can be calibrated based on actual charging data.
[0081] In this embodiment, by acquiring the state of charge of the vehicle battery and the output current of the charging pile in real time, and actively ending the charging when the state of charge is greater than a set threshold and the output current of the charging pile is continuously low, the probability of float charging at the end of the high-voltage platform battery charging problem is reduced, thereby reducing the probability of the vehicle battery charging time being too long at the end of the charging process.
[0082] In one possible application scenario, during fast charging of electric vehicles, to further optimize charging time, improve charging safety, and enhance charging stability, the vehicle-side current demand can be calculated first. This involves considering the battery's allowable charging capacity, the power consumption of high-voltage accessories such as air conditioning, DC-DC power, and the current battery voltage to determine the vehicle-side charging current requirement. Then, the maximum allowable charging current value at the charging station is obtained based on the signal transmitted from the charging station. Furthermore, considering both the vehicle-side charging capacity and the charging station's output capacity, and taking into account the current-carrying capacity of cables and charging sockets in national standard fast charging, the charging current is limited to below 250A. This comprehensive calculation yields the maximum allowable charging current. It also needs to consider the issue of overheating at the charging port during the charging process and adjust the charging current coefficient in real time. Additionally, the current regulation rate is adjusted according to different states of charge (SOC) ranges to reduce system instability and overcurrent caused by sudden changes in current demand due to switching on or off high-power appliances like air conditioning during charging. Finally, at the end of the charging process, charging is terminated when the vehicle battery's SOC reaches a preset threshold.
[0083] In this application scenario, during charging, when the charging port temperature is below 105℃, the charging current coefficient is set to 1. As charging progresses, the charging port temperature gradually increases. When the charging port temperature is between 105℃ and 110℃, the charging current coefficient is set to 0.8; when the charging port temperature rises to between 110℃ and 120℃, the charging current coefficient is set to 0.5; when the charging port temperature is greater than or equal to 120℃, due to the potential risk of overheating, an over-temperature shutdown is initiated, and the charging current coefficient and charging current are both reduced to 0. This achieves the goal of dynamically controlling the charging current based on the charging port temperature.
[0084] In this application scenario, this embodiment calculates the vehicle-side charging current demand value based on the vehicle battery's charging current demand value, AC power, DC-DC power, and the vehicle battery's current voltage. Then, it calculates the charging current value at the charging pile end and calculates the charging coefficient based on the charging port temperature. The vehicle battery is then charged based on the charging current value and the charging current coefficient, thereby effectively reducing current faults caused by mismatch between the vehicle-side and charging pile-side responses due to charging current adjustment. This significantly improves charging efficiency, reduces charging time, and provides over-temperature protection based on the charging port temperature, reducing the occurrence of accidents caused by temperature during charging.

When the processor 1320 executes the computer program 1311, it performs the following steps:
[0089] The charging current demand at the vehicle end is obtained by summing the maximum allowable charging current of the vehicle battery and the current consumed by the high-voltage accessories.

The corresponding charging current coefficient is obtained based on the real-time acquired charging port temperature. The vehicle battery is then charged according to the aforementioned charging current value and the aforementioned charging current coefficient.

The corresponding charging current coefficient is obtained based on the real-time acquired charging port temperature. The vehicle battery is then charged according to the aforementioned charging current value and the aforementioned charging current coefficient.
[0092] This invention provides a charging current control method, system, electronic device, and storage medium. The method includes: obtaining the charging demand current value at the vehicle end based on the sum of the maximum allowable charging current value of the vehicle battery and the current consumed by the high-voltage accessories; calculating the minimum value between the minimum value of the charging demand current value and the minimum value of the maximum allowable charging current value at the charging pile end, and then calculating the minimum value of the minimum value of the minimum value of the minimum value of the national standard fast charging current limit of 250A, and setting the minimum value of the minimum value as the charging current value; obtaining the corresponding charging current coefficient based on the real-time acquired charging port temperature value; and charging the vehicle battery according to the above charging current value and the above charging current coefficient.
