[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method embodiment for battery thermal management is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0036] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a battery thermal management method according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0037] Step S102: Obtain the actual temperature of the battery on the vehicle and the current location of the vehicle;

[0038] The above actual temperature may refer to the actual temperature of the battery at the current moment, and the above current location may refer to whether the vehicle is currently inside a battery swapping station.

[0039] Since the discharge process of a battery typically includes two parts: a heat generation process and a heat transfer process, the temperature directly collected by the temperature sensor on the battery may not be affected by either the heat generation process or the heat transfer process, and will deviate from the actual temperature of the battery. Therefore, in one optional solution of this embodiment, in order to ensure the accuracy of controlling the operation of the thermal management module according to the battery, the thermal management system can first obtain the actual temperature of the battery.

[0040] In one optional embodiment, considering that the battery adopts different discharge or charging strategies at different locations, the corresponding control strategies for the thermal management module are also different. For example, if the vehicle is inside a charging station, the battery may adopt a charging strategy. In this case, the thermal management module can be used to control the battery temperature within a temperature range with higher charging efficiency. If the vehicle is outside a charging station, the battery may adopt a discharging strategy. In this case, the thermal management module can be used to control the battery temperature within a temperature range with higher discharging efficiency. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that the battery temperature is within a temperature range with higher charging efficiency when the vehicle enters the battery swapping station. Therefore, in order to better control the thermal management module, while obtaining the actual battery temperature, the current position of the vehicle can also be obtained, such as whether the wheels are currently inside the battery swapping station.

[0041] Step S104: Based on the current location, obtain the driver's user data and the battery swapping station's site data;

[0042] The aforementioned user data can refer to data obtained by predicting the driver's behavior over a future period. This data can affect the battery's temperature during charging, thereby impacting charging efficiency. Examples include driving behavior and charging behavior in the future. The aforementioned site data can refer to data from battery swapping stations that provide charging equipment and may affect battery charging efficiency. Examples include the current type of the charging pile, the number of available charging piles, the site temperature, and the relative position of the swapping station and the vehicle.

[0043] Considering that the vehicle's driving status can be controlled by the driver, such as controlling the vehicle's speed and path during manual driving, and controlling the operation of the vehicle's onboard screen and air conditioning during autonomous driving, the vehicle's driving status will affect the battery's temperature change over a future period. Furthermore, since the driver's control of the vehicle may differ depending on the location—for example, on a highway, the driver needs to control the vehicle at high speed, resulting in a larger temperature rise in the battery, while in congested traffic, the driver needs to control the vehicle at low speed, resulting in a smaller temperature rise—in one optional solution of this embodiment, to improve the accuracy of predicting the battery's temperature over a future period and thus improve the accuracy of controlling the operation of the thermal management module, the thermal management system can further acquire the aforementioned driver user data based on the vehicle's current location. For example, if the current location is outside the battery swapping station, the acquired user data may include, but is not limited to, the driver's driving habits and device usage habits; if the current location is inside the battery swapping station, the acquired user data may include, but is not limited to, the driver's charging pile selection sequence and the driver's device usage habits during charging.

[0044] In one optional embodiment, the driver's user data can be predicted by combining the driver's historical behavior data and the vehicle's current driving status. The driver's historical behavior data may include, but is not limited to, historical driving records and historical charging records. The vehicle's current driving status may include, but is not limited to, the vehicle's current location, the operating status of the electrical equipment on the vehicle, and the distance between the vehicle and the battery swapping station.

[0045] In one optional embodiment, considering the data of the battery swapping station, such as station temperature, charging pile type, and available number of charging piles, which may affect the charging efficiency of the battery, and because the temperature change of the battery will vary over time depending on the vehicle's location when it arrives at the swapping station, for example, if the swapping station is far from the vehicle's current location, the vehicle will need to travel for a long time, resulting in a larger temperature rise in the battery; conversely, if the swapping station is close to the vehicle's current location, the vehicle will not need to travel for a long time, resulting in a smaller temperature rise in the battery. Therefore, while obtaining the driver's user data, the vehicle's current location can also be used to obtain the station data. For example, if the vehicle is currently inside the swapping station, the obtained station data may include the station temperature, the number and location of available charging piles within the station, and the vehicle's actual location within the swapping station; if the vehicle is not currently inside the swapping station, the obtained station data may include the actual distance between the swapping station and the vehicle's current location, the number and type of available charging piles within the swapping station, and the road conditions of the road the vehicle is currently traveling on.

[0046] Step S106: Based on the actual temperature, user data, and site data, predict the future temperature of the battery during charging.

[0047] The aforementioned future temperature could refer to the predicted battery temperature when the vehicle is being charged over a future period of time.

[0048] In one alternative embodiment, considering that the aforementioned user data and site data will affect the temperature change of the battery over a period of time, and thus affect the future temperature of the battery during charging, the thermal management system can predict the aforementioned future temperature based on the actual temperature of the battery, thereby improving the accuracy of the predicted future temperature.

[0049] For example, the thermal management system can first determine the coefficient of variation that the driver's future behavior may affect the battery temperature based on the acquired user data, then determine the coefficient of variation that the battery swapping station may affect the battery temperature based on the acquired station data, and finally use these two coefficients to adjust the actual battery temperature to obtain the aforementioned future temperature.

[0050] In one optional embodiment, when predicting the future temperature, the thermal management system can also acquire the driver's actual user data and the actual station data of the battery swapping station in real time. Then, using the actual user data and actual station data, the system can adjust the future temperature initially predicted using the user data and station data, thereby achieving the purpose of real-time prediction and adjustment of the future temperature, and further improving the accuracy of the predicted future temperature.

[0051] Step S108: The thermal management module of the battery based on future temperature control is activated.

[0052] The aforementioned thermal management module may include a first thermal management module on the vehicle that controls the temperature of the battery, and a second thermal management module within the battery swapping station that controls the temperature of the station.

[0053] In one optional embodiment, since both the battery's own temperature and the battery swapping station's temperature affect the battery's charging efficiency, after predicting the battery's future temperature during charging, the thermal management system can control the first thermal management module on the vehicle and the second thermal management module of the battery swapping station based on the future temperature. This ensures that when the battery is actually being charged, the battery temperature can be maintained within a target temperature range with high charging efficiency. The target temperature range can be obtained by staff testing the battery's charging efficiency at different charging temperatures. The target temperature range can be constructed based on charging temperatures where the charging efficiency is greater than a preset efficiency threshold.

[0054] For example, if there are many electrical devices operating on the vehicle, or if the temperature at the battery swapping station is high, the future temperature of the battery during charging may exceed the maximum value in the target temperature range, thus affecting the battery's charging efficiency. Therefore, the thermal management system can use the first thermal management module to cool the battery in advance during vehicle operation, ensuring that the battery temperature is within the target temperature range when the vehicle arrives at the battery swapping station. At the same time, the second thermal management module can control the temperature of the battery swapping station to lower or raise it, so that the battery temperature will not exceed the target temperature range due to heat generated during charging or excessively high station temperature, thereby enabling the battery to charge at a higher charging efficiency.

[0055] In this embodiment of the invention, the method involves acquiring the actual temperature of the battery on the vehicle and the vehicle's current location; acquiring driver user data and battery swapping station data based on the current location; predicting the future temperature of the battery during charging based on the actual temperature, user data, and station data; and controlling the operation of the battery's thermal management module based on the future temperature. By acquiring corresponding user data and station data based on the vehicle's current location, the operating pressure of the thermal management system is reduced. Simultaneously, the future temperature of the battery during charging is predicted based on the user data and station data, and the thermal management module is controlled using this future temperature. This achieves the goal of improving the accuracy of controlling the operation of the thermal management module, thereby improving the technical effect of the thermal management module's control and solving the technical problem of poor control effect of the battery's thermal management module in related technologies.

[0056] Optionally, based on the actual temperature, user data, and site data, the future temperature of the battery during charging is predicted, including: obtaining a first temperature rise coefficient corresponding to the user data and a second temperature rise coefficient corresponding to the site data; obtaining a target temperature rise coefficient based on the sum of the first and second temperature rise coefficients; and adjusting the actual temperature based on the target temperature rise coefficient to obtain the future temperature.

[0057] The first temperature rise coefficient mentioned above can refer to the temperature rise coefficient that affects the actual temperature change of the battery based on the driver's user data during vehicle operation. The second temperature rise coefficient mentioned above can refer to the temperature rise coefficient that affects the actual temperature of the battery based on the data from the battery swapping station.

[0058] In one optional embodiment, considering that both user data and site data may affect the future temperature of the battery during charging—for example, if a large number of electrical devices are operating on the vehicle, the future battery temperature may be higher; similarly, if the site temperature of the battery swapping station is high, the future battery temperature may also be higher—the thermal management system can first determine the aforementioned first temperature rise coefficient based on the acquired user data. For instance, if the user data indicates that the driver uses many electrical devices while driving at a high speed, resulting in a larger temperature rise in the battery, a larger first temperature rise coefficient can be set. Conversely, if the user data indicates that the driver uses fewer electrical devices while driving at a moderate speed, resulting in a smaller temperature rise in the battery, a smaller first temperature rise coefficient can be set.

[0059] While determining the first temperature rise coefficient, the thermal management system can also determine the second temperature coefficient based on the acquired site data. For example, if the site data shows a high site temperature and most of the charging piles in the battery swapping station are charging other batteries at maximum power, the corresponding batteries will experience a large temperature rise during charging, in which case a larger second temperature rise coefficient can be set. If the site data shows a low site temperature and most of the charging piles in the battery swapping station are in standby mode, the corresponding batteries will experience a small temperature rise during charging, in which case a smaller second temperature rise coefficient can be set.

[0060] After determining the first and second temperature rise coefficients, their sum can be used as the target temperature rise coefficient. This target coefficient is then used to adjust the actual battery temperature to predict the future battery temperature during charging. It should be noted that using the sum of the two temperature rise coefficients as the target temperature rise coefficient is merely an example. Furthermore, different weights can be assigned to the first and second temperature rise coefficients based on user data and site data. For instance, if user data indicates that the vehicle is far from the battery swapping station and requires significant time to travel, a larger weight can be assigned to the first temperature rise coefficient. Conversely, if site data indicates that the available charging piles at the battery swapping station have limited power and cannot provide fast charging, a smaller weight can be assigned to the second temperature rise coefficient. This further improves the accuracy of the future temperature prediction using the first and second temperature rise coefficients.

[0061] Optionally, obtaining the first temperature rise coefficient corresponding to the user data includes: in response to the user data including the driver's future driving data, obtaining the first temperature rise coefficient corresponding to the future driving data from the driving temperature rise coefficient table, wherein the driving temperature rise coefficient table is used to characterize the mapping relationship between the future driving data and the first temperature rise coefficient; in response to the user data including the user profile of the next driver, determining the first temperature rise coefficient based on the historical battery swapping data and historical charging habits in the user profile.

[0062] The "next driver" mentioned above can refer to the next driver who makes a charging reservation at the charging pile in the battery swapping station. Considering that if a new vehicle drives into the battery swapping station while the battery is being charged, the temperature of the new vehicle will also affect the temperature of the current vehicle's battery during charging, thus affecting the charging efficiency, the user data mentioned above can also include the user profile of the next driver who makes a battery swapping reservation.

[0063] The aforementioned future driving data may include, but is not limited to: the driver's driving speed, driving route, and usage of electrical equipment over a future period. The aforementioned historical charging data may include, but is not limited to: the average charging time of the battery, the average state of charge, and the types of commonly used charging stations. The aforementioned historical charging habits may include, but is not limited to: the driver's charging mode selection habits and electrical equipment usage habits when charging the battery.

[0064] The aforementioned driving temperature rise coefficient table can refer to a mapping relationship between the driver's future driving data and the first temperature rise coefficient, which can be obtained by staff through battery testing and simulation under different driving data.

[0065] In one optional embodiment, when the acquired user data includes the driver's future driving data, the thermal management system can quickly determine the first temperature rise coefficient corresponding to the future driving data from the aforementioned driving temperature rise coefficient table.

[0066] When the acquired user data includes the user profile of the next driver, the thermal management system can adjust an initial temperature rise coefficient based on information such as historical battery swapping data and historical battery swapping habits in the user profile. For example, if the initial temperature rise coefficient is set to 1, and the historical battery swapping data and information indicate that the next driver tends to use more electrical devices, the temperature of the next vehicle will be higher, significantly affecting the temperature of the current vehicle's battery. In this case, the initial temperature rise coefficient can be significantly increased to the first temperature coefficient, for example, adjusted to 1.6. If the historical battery swapping data and information indicate that the next driver does not tend to use electrical devices, the temperature of the next vehicle will be lower, slightly or not affecting the temperature of the current vehicle's battery. In this case, the initial temperature rise coefficient can be slightly increased to the first temperature coefficient, for example, adjusted to 1.1.

[0067] Optionally, obtaining the second temperature rise coefficient corresponding to the site data includes: in response to the site data including the site location of the battery swapping station, determining the second temperature rise coefficient based on the battery swapping strategy corresponding to the site location; in response to the site data including the site temperature and future charging power of the battery swapping station, obtaining the second temperature rise coefficient corresponding to the site temperature and future charging power from a preset temperature rise coefficient table, wherein the preset temperature rise coefficient table is used to characterize the mapping relationship between the site temperature, future charging power and the second temperature rise coefficient.

[0068] The aforementioned station location may refer to the relative position of the battery swapping station and the vehicle. The aforementioned future charging power available refers to the maximum charging power of the charging pile reserved by the driver or the thermal management system. In an optional scheme of this embodiment, the driver or the thermal management system may also select different battery charging modes, such as high-speed charging module or low-speed power mode. The aforementioned future charging power may also be the power obtained by adjusting the maximum charging power of the charging pile according to the battery charging mode.

[0069] The aforementioned preset temperature rise coefficient table can refer to the mapping relationship between the station temperature, charging power, and second temperature rise coefficient of the battery swapping station. It can be obtained by staff through testing and simulation of batteries under different temperatures and charging powers.

[0078] The aforementioned rated current can refer to the current obtained by testing the battery during operation within a safe output power range.

[0079] In one optional embodiment, considering that the temperature change of the battery is affected by the heat generation process and the heat transfer process, different temperature correction coefficients can be determined for different temperature change processes and different battery data. That is, the first heat generation correction coefficient and the second heat generation correction coefficient mentioned above are set for the heat generation process, and the first heat transfer correction coefficient and the second heat transfer correction coefficient mentioned above are set for the heat transfer process.

[0080] Specifically, when obtaining the temperature correction coefficient based on historical operating data, battery internal resistance data, battery ambient temperature, and battery thermal conductivity, it is considered that if the historical battery current generated during actual operation is greater than the rated current, it indicates that the battery current will have a significant impact on the actual temperature of the battery. In this case, the thermal management system can determine the influencing factors that will affect the heat generation process of the battery from the preset current influencing factor table based on the difference between the historical battery current and the rated current. Then, the first heat generation coefficient mentioned above is determined using the historical battery current and the influencing factors.

[0081] Then, considering that the battery internal resistance data will also affect the battery's heat generation process, the thermal management system can determine the second heat generation correction coefficient mentioned above from the resistance heat generation coefficient table based on the individual cell resistance of the battery.

[0082] Furthermore, considering that the battery ambient temperature and battery thermal conductivity will affect the battery's heat transfer process, when determining the heat transfer coefficient, the thermal management system can first determine the first heat transfer correction coefficient from the first heat transfer coefficient table based on the obtained battery ambient temperature, and then determine the aforementioned second heat transfer correction coefficient from the second heat transfer coefficient table based on the obtained battery thermal conductivity.

[0084] In one optional embodiment, to ensure the accuracy of the determined first heat generation correction coefficient, the calibration current used may include, but is not limited to, calibration peak current and calibration average current. The corresponding historical battery current may include, but is not limited to, discharge peak current and discharge average current.

The corresponding influence factors may include, but are not limited to, first influence factor and second influence factor. The first influence factor is the influence factor corresponding to the peak current influence factor table and calibration peak current, and the second influence factor is the influence factor corresponding to the average current influence factor table and calibration average current.

[0085] Optionally, the influence factors corresponding to the difference between the historical battery current and the rated current are obtained from the current influence factor table, and a first heat generation correction coefficient is determined based on the historical battery current and the influence factors, including: obtaining a first influence factor from the peak current influence factor table based on the difference between the peak discharge current and the rated peak current; obtaining a second influence factor from the average current influence factor table based on the difference between the average discharge current and the rated average current; determining a third influence factor based on the ratio of the peak discharge current to the average discharge current, and the product of the ratio and the second influence factor; and determining a first heat generation correction coefficient based on the sum of the first influence factor and the third influence factor.

[0086] In one optional embodiment, when determining the first heat generation correction coefficient based on historical battery current and influence factors, the first difference between the discharge peak current and the calibration peak current can be obtained first, and the first influence factor α can be determined from the peak current influence factor table based on the first difference. At the same time, the second difference between the discharge average current and the calibration average current can be obtained, and the second influence factor β can be determined from the average current influence factor table based on the second difference.

[0087] Then, the ratio of the peak discharge current to the average discharge current, and the product of this ratio and the second influencing factor, can be used to determine the third influencing factor I / I0*β. Finally, based on the sum of the first and third influencing factors, the first heat generation correction coefficient A can be determined, i.e., A=α+I / I0*β.

[0088] Optionally, the operation of the battery's thermal management module is controlled based on the future temperature, including: acquiring the battery's calibrated charging temperature, wherein the battery charging efficiency corresponding to the calibrated charging temperature is greater than the battery charging efficiency corresponding to other charging temperatures; obtaining a temperature difference based on the difference between the future temperature and the calibrated charging temperature; and controlling the battery's operating power, the battery's thermal management module's operating mode, and the battery swapping station's thermal management module's operating mode based on the temperature difference.

[0089] The aforementioned calibrated charging temperature can refer to the temperature within the aforementioned target temperature range. Generally, the battery's charging efficiency at the calibrated charging temperature is higher than its efficiency at other charging temperatures. The aforementioned thermal management module includes the first thermal management module and the second thermal management module mentioned above.

[0090] In one optional embodiment, when controlling the operation of the thermal management module, the thermal management system can first obtain the battery's calibrated charging temperature, and then use the difference between the predicted future charging temperature and the calibrated charging temperature, i.e., the aforementioned temperature difference, to control the battery's operating power, as well as the operation of the battery's thermal management module (i.e., the first thermal management module) and the battery swapping station's thermal management module (i.e., the second thermal management module). For example, if the temperature difference is large, multiple cooling components in the first thermal cooling module, such as coolers and water pumps, can be controlled to operate, while multiple cooling components in the second cooling module, such as air conditioners and water-cooling equipment, can also be controlled to operate. If the temperature difference is small, a small number of components in the first and second thermal cooling modules can be controlled to operate or not operate.
