[0005] (2) Including the following steps: charge the lithium ion battery to the upper limit cut-off voltage and keep constant voltage charging, so that the battery reaches 100% SOC; after the battery voltage is stable, the ohmic resistance Rohm is measured by using the step method or impedance spectrum method, and the internal resistance SOHR of SOH is calculated; discharge the battery to the lower limit cut-off voltage to shorten the discharge stage in the capacity method, and after standing, the discharge curve of the battery from 100% to 0% SOC is obtained, so that the discharged capacity and the discharge curve are obtained, and the capacity SOHQ of SOH is calculated, the correlation of the two discharge curves is calculated by comparing the discharge curve with the initial or standard discharge curve, and the discharge SOHC of SOH is obtained; the ohmic resistance Rohm1 is measured by using the step method or impedance spectrum method, and the initial or standard ohmic resistance SOH of the internal resistance SOHR1 at SOC of 0% is calculated; the fusion estimation of the four characteristic quantities SOHR, SOHQ, SOHC and SOHR1 of battery SOH is realized by using the weighting method or the like.

[0006] (3) Charge 1C to the upper limit cut-off voltage, and keep constant voltage charging until the current is less than 0.02C or the time exceeds the set time, so that the battery reaches 100% SOC.

[0007] (4) After the battery voltage is stable, the ohmic resistance Rohm is measured by using the step method or impedance spectrum method, and is calculated according to the formula.

[0008] (5) Discharge the battery at 2C or more to the lower limit cut-off voltage.

[0074] The present application will be further illustrated below in conjunction with specific embodiments, and it should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present application and not used to limit the scope of the present application, and after reading the present application, various equivalent modifications of the present application by those skilled in the art all fall within the scope defined by the claims attached hereto.

[0075] A method for detecting battery system health during a whole vehicle direct current charging process, comprising the following steps:

[0076] S100. Calculate a theoretical maximum battery charging current.

[0077] In this embodiment, S100 specifically comprises the following steps:

[0078] S110. Obtain maximum battery charging current data at SOC=0%; SOC is used to represent the current charge of the battery.

[0079] In this embodiment, S110 specifically comprises the following steps:

[0080] S111. At SOC=0%, use a three-electrode charging method to measure and obtain the maximum battery charging current data; in the three-electrode charging method, there are three electrodes, namely the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the reference electrode; during the charging phase of the measurement process, the negative electrode potential is maintained at no less than 0V.

[0081] S112. After the measurement process of S111 ends, disassemble the battery cell; then, according to the disassembly result, perform the following operations:

[0082] If lithium precipitation occurs on the surface of the disassembled battery cell, discard the test result of this S111; then, discard the battery used in this S111 and replace it with a new battery of the same model; then, return to and perform S111 again.

[0083] If lithium precipitation does not occur on the surface of the disassembled battery cell, retain the maximum battery charging current data measured in this S111.

[0084] It should be emphasized that during the charging phase of the measurement process, the negative electrode potential must be maintained at no less than 0V, otherwise lithium precipitation may occur; and lithium precipitation may likely lead to safety risks.

[0085] S120. Within a manually preset SOC interval, perform a point selection operation according to the charging capacity to obtain multiple different fitting points; each fitting point comprises a charging capacity value and a best charging current value corresponding to the charging capacity value.

[0086] In this embodiment, S120 specifically comprises the following steps:

[0087] S121. Within the SOC interval, select multiple charging capacity values at uniform intervals; the SOC interval is a closed interval composed of different SOC values on the number axis.

[0088] S122. Obtain the corresponding best charging current value according to each charging capacity value.

[0089] S123. Pack the value of the charging capacity with the value of the optimal charging current corresponding to the value of the charging capacity to obtain a fitting point corresponding to the value of the charging capacity.

[0090] It should be noted that the process of obtaining the fitting point by uniformly selecting points in the SOC interval preset by the artificial according to Q is consistent with the measurement method and matters needing attention of the maximum charging current data of the battery in S110 at SOC=0%, using three-electrode charging method, and it is again emphasized to prevent the generation of lithium precipitation phenomenon.

[0091] In the embodiment, the fitting point is expressed in the form of (Q, I c ).

[0092] In the embodiment, the optimal charging current is expressed by formula (1):

[0093] I c =I0-β*SOC (1)

[0094] Wherein: I c is the optimal charging current; β is the maximum charging current reduction coefficient; SOC is the current charge of the battery; I0 is the initial charging current.

[0095] The maximum charging current reduction coefficient is expressed by formula (2):

[0096] β=α*Q (2)

[0097] Wherein: α is the charging acceptance rate; Q is the charging capacity.

[0098] The initial charging current is expressed by formula (3) as follows:

[0099]

[0100] Wherein: I0 is the initial charging current; e is the natural logarithm; t is the charging duration.

[0101] In the embodiment, the charging duration is not less than 1 min.

[0102] It should be noted that first, the relationship between the initial charging current and the optimal charging current is determined, that is, expressed by the first part in formula (3) to obtain formula (4):

[0103] I c =I0*e -αt (4)

[0104] Then integrate the second part in formula (3) to obtain formula (5):

[0105] e αt =1-αt / I0 (5)

[0106] By combining the above formula (4) and formula (5), a fitting expression, i.e. formula (1), can be obtained.

[0107] It should be further explained that the physical basis of the derivation process in S120 is that the maximum charging current of the battery at different SOC must comply with the third law of mass, thereby obtaining

[0108] As shown in FIG. 1, it is a schematic diagram of fitting the charging capacity curve of the battery cell according to the third law of mass. Figure 2

[0109] S130. Formulate a step charging map based on the relationship between the maximum charging current and the SOC.

[0110] In the embodiment, S130 specifically comprises the following steps:

[0111] S131. In the last segment of the charging current step in the SOC interval of SOC∈[0%, 10%] and SOC∈[90%, 100%], the SOC is continuously 5% to 10%.

[0112] It should be noted that the theoretical basis of S131 is that the internal resistance changes greatly at both ends of the entire SOC, and therefore the above numerical range is the preferred numerical range for achieving the technical purpose of the present application through the long-term experimental verification of the applicant. The embodiment is implemented according to the above numerical range, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the calculation.

[0113] S132. In the SOC interval of SOC∈[10%, 90%], 5 or 6 charging current steps are set, and the span of each charging current step does not exceed 20% SOC.

[0114] It should be noted that the purpose of setting the number and span of the charging current steps in S133 is to make the charging rate change frequently.

[0115] S133. A constant voltage charging strategy is adopted when approaching 100% SOC.

[0116] S134. On the basis of the completion of S131-S134, a charging map graph about the step charging map is specified; then an SOC-I graph is made according to the charging map graph; the SOC-I graph is a step curve graph; the step conversion of the curve in the SOC-I graph is the switching time of the charging current; the change of the charging current corresponds to the change of the voltage as shown in FIG. 2. Figure 1

[0117] S200. Calculate the health degree of the battery system; the health degree of the battery system is the final result of the method.

[0118] ​​In the embodiment, S200 specifically comprises the following steps:

[0119] S210. Obtain the maximum battery charge amount and the minimum battery charge amount; both of which are pre-set by the manufacturer.

[0120] It should be noted that the vehicle manufacturer will limit the SOC usage range when the battery is actually used. In order to facilitate subsequent understanding, in the embodiment, the SOC min represents the minimum battery charge amount, and the SOC max represents the maximum battery charge amount. Therefore, the battery SOC usage range is the interval [SOC min , SOC max ].

[0121] S220. Calculate the polarization voltage.

[0122] In the embodiment, the polarization voltage is expressed by formula (6):

[0123] U 极化 = I * R (6)

[0124] Where: U 极化 is the polarization voltage; I is the last charging current; and R is the charging DC internal resistance.

[0125] The last charging current is the last constant current charging current of the step charging map.

[0126] It should be noted that in the technical field, the charging internal resistance is approximately considered to be consistent with the charging internal resistance. Therefore, the way in which the high SOC internal resistance affects the health degree is mainly reflected in the last constant current charging current. Therefore, the last charging current in the step charging map is I, and the polarization voltage is U 极化 = I * R.

[0127] The charging DC internal resistance is expressed by formula (7):

[0128] R = ΔU / ΔI (7)

[0129] Where: ΔU is the charging voltage change amount, which is obtained by real-time acquisition of the charging voltage during charging; and ΔI is the charging current change amount, which is obtained by real-time acquisition of the charging current during charging. The charging voltage change amount and the charging current change amount are synchronously collected in the charging duration, and the charging voltage change amount changes with the charging current change amount.

[0130] S230. Calculate the unpolarized voltage according to the polarization voltage.

[0131] In the embodiment, the unpolarized voltage is expressed by formula (8):

[0132] U未极化 = U 满充 - U 极化 = U 满充 - I * R (8)

[0133] wherein: U 未极化 is the un-polarized voltage; U 满充 is the full charge voltage, which is obtained by measuring the battery in full charge state.

[0134] It is to be noted that when the full charge voltage has been measured, the battery at this time does not consider the polarization voltage; thus, formula (8) is obtained.

[0135] S240. According to the un-polarized voltage, the current charge amount of the battery corresponding to the un-polarized voltage is obtained in the artificially preset battery SOC-OCV curve.

[0136] S250. The current charge amount of the battery obtained in S240 is set as the real SOC value obtained according to the battery SOC-OCV curve.

[0137] S260. According to the real SOC value obtained according to the battery SOC-OCV curve in S250, the battery system health degree is calculated.

[0138] In the embodiment, the battery system health degree is expressed by formula (9):

[0139] SOH R = (SOC 真实 - SOC min ) / (SOC max - SOC min ) (9)

[0140] wherein: SOH R is the battery system health degree; SOC 真实 is the real SOC value obtained according to the battery SOC-OCV curve; SOC min is the lowest battery charge amount; and SOC max is the highest battery charge amount.

[0141] In order to further demonstrate the technical effect of the present application, the embodiment herein gives an experimental process containing specific numerical values, and the same numerical values are brought into the prior art to make a simulation, so as to compare and show the significant progress of the present application relative to the prior art.

[0142] As Figure 1The pulse current test data of the battery SOC in this experiment is shown, wherein the U1-U5 stage is the pulse discharge test data, and the U5-U9 stage is the pulse charge test data; during the end of charging, the battery voltage reaches the charging cutoff voltage due to the ohmic internal resistance polarization effect under a certain current, and the charging is stopped, and the corresponding process is U5-U6.

[0143] First, as shown in Figure 3 , the battery SOC-OCV curve is artificially preset, and is a known condition.

[0144] Secondly, the initial parameters of this experiment are as follows:

[0145] The nominal capacity of the battery is 20 Ah, and the measured charging capacity is Q = 20.3 Ah.

[0146] The minimum battery charge is SOC min = 3%.

[0147] The maximum battery charge is SOC max = 98%.

[0148] Therefore, in this embodiment, the use range of the battery is [3%, 98%].

[0149] Therefore, in this embodiment, the voltage at SOC = 98% is taken as the full charge voltage U 满充 ; it is measured that the full charge voltage corresponding to SOC = 98% is U 满充 = 4.16 V.

[0150] Then, it is measured that the initial charging current is I0 = 50 A.

[0151] Then, in the use range of the battery as the SOC interval [3%, 98%], the corresponding maximum charging current is tested every 10% SOC.

[0152] Then, the relationship between SOC and the corresponding maximum charging current is shown in Table 1:

[0153] Table 1. Relationship table between SOC and the corresponding maximum charging current

[0154] SOC (%) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 I (A) 50 43.9 38.1 33 27.9 23 18.6 14 8.2 3.4 0

[0155] On the basis of Table 1 and the above initial parameters, the fitting points in Table 1 are fitted according to formula (1), and the last charging current is obtained as follows:

[0156] I = 48.42-0.49*SOC

[0157] Therefore, in the embodiment, two stages are defined according to the fitted battery charging and discharging capacity curve: the charging current is 8 A when SOC is in [80%, 90%], and the charging current is 3 A when SOC is in [90%, 98%].

[0158] Charging at 90% SOC is equivalent to HPPC test on the battery, and the result is Figure 1 U1-U3 data; wherein:

[0159] U1=4.15 V, U2=3.95 V, so the charging DC internal resistance is

[0160] R=(U1-U2) / ΔI=0.2 V / 5 A=40 mΩ

[0161] Next, when charging at the end, the charging current is 3 A; therefore, the corresponding polarization voltage is:

[0162] U 极化 =I*R=3 A*40 mΩ=0.12 V

[0163] Then, the un-polarized voltage is calculated according to the polarization voltage as:

[0164] U 未极化 =U 满充 -U 极化 =U 满充 -I*R=4.16 V-0.12 V=4.04 V

[0165] Then, the real SOC value obtained according to the battery SOC-OCV curve is SOC 真实1 =96%.

[0166] Finally, the above data is substituted into formula (9) to obtain:

[0167] SOH R =(SOC 真实1 -SOC min ) / (SOC max -SOC min )=(96%-3%) / (98%-3%)=97.9%

[0168] The above is the calculation, and next, in order to verify the technical effect of the application, the battery is actually charged at 0.1C to obtain the charging capacity:

[0169] SOH 真实2 =charging capacity / initial charging capacity=95%

[0170] Therefore, the real SOC value measured and the real SOC value calculated can be compared to obtain a deviation value:

[0171] Bias = |SOH 真实1 -SOH 计算2 | / SOH 真实2 = 1.3%

[0172] Correspondingly, the prior art technical solutions are Chinese patents with application number 200710064294.4 and name "Nickel-hydrogen power battery state of charge estimation method based on standard battery model", and 201680030378.3 and name "Method and device for determining health and state of charge of lithium-sulfur battery pack", which also disclose the calculation method of SOH; in order to show the significant technical progress of the present application relative to the prior art, the same battery and parameters are also experimented according to the above two prior arts respectively in this embodiment, and the comparison of the results obtained by the present application is shown in Table 2:

[0173] Table 2. Comparison table of technical effects

[0174] Technical Solution CN201680030378.3 CN200710064294.4 The Invention SOH 90.8% 92% 93.8% Calculation Deviation % 4.4% 3.1% 1.3%

[0175] It is obvious that the bias of the present application relative to 201680030378.3 is reduced by 4.4%-1.3%=3.1%, that is, the accuracy is improved by 3.1% / 4.4%=70.4%, and the effect is very obvious.
