[0002] In low-temperature environments, the ion activity of power batteries decreases, leading to a significant reduction in discharge capacity. Vehicle review organizations conducted range tests on new energy vehicles in northern winters and found that their range was generally reduced by more than half, severely impacting their driving range. Therefore, increasing the temperature of the power battery in winter to enhance ion activity and thus increase battery discharge capacity has become a crucial method for improving the winter driving range of new energy vehicles.

However, the heating of the power battery requires strict control over the inlet water temperature; otherwise, the battery's lifespan will be affected. When using engine waste heat to heat the power battery, the engine coolant temperature cannot be controlled. How to effectively control the inlet water temperature for power battery heating is a pressing problem that needs to be solved, but this patent application does not address this issue.

[0012] S3. Determine whether the engine coolant temperature is greater than or equal to the preset first temperature threshold Tx. If yes, execute S5; otherwise (indicating that the engine coolant temperature is too low or the engine has stopped and the engine waste heat is not utilized), execute S4.
[0013] S4. Control the first outlet opening of the three-way proportional valve to 100% and the second outlet opening to 0, control the PTC heater to work, use the heat generated by the PTC heater to heat the power battery, and then return to execute S1.

Query the preset inlet water temperature table according to the power battery temperature to obtain the current power battery heating desired inlet water temperature Ta, and then execute S6; wherein, the preset inlet water temperature table is a correspondence table between the power battery temperature and the power battery heating desired inlet water temperature obtained through calibration.

[0017] Preferably, the method for determining the current desired inlet water temperature T of the battery heat exchanger in step S6 t is as follows: If Ta > Tb + Ty, then make T t = T t-1 + Tz; if Tb - Ty ≤ Ta ≤ Tb + Ty, then make T t = T t-1 ; if Ta < Tb - Ty, then make T t = T t-1 - Tz. Where, Ty represents a preset second temperature threshold, Tz represents a preset third temperature threshold, and the initial value T0 of the desired inlet water temperature of the battery heat exchanger is equal to a preset fourth temperature threshold Tv. Adjusting based on the current desired inlet water temperature Ta of the power battery and the actual inlet water temperature Tb of the power battery on the basis of the previous desired inlet water temperature of the battery heat exchanger to obtain the current desired inlet water temperature of the battery heat exchanger can make the subsequent water temperature control more accurate and reasonable.

Where, m represents a preset opening degree threshold, the initial value of the opening degree of the first outlet of the three-way proportional valve is 100%, and the initial value of the opening degree of the second outlet is 0.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the water temperature control method for power battery heating in this embodiment is applied to the aforementioned power battery heating system. This water temperature control method is executed by a controller and includes:
[0029] The first step is to determine if the power battery requires heating. If so, proceed to the second step; otherwise, continue with the first step. Specifically, if the vehicle's power supply is in the ON position, the driving heating function is activated, the power battery temperature is lower than the preset fifth temperature threshold Tu (Tu = 0°C in this embodiment), and the power battery SOC is greater than the preset SOC threshold (10% in this embodiment), then the power battery requires heating; otherwise, the power battery does not require heating.
[0030] Step 2: Determine whether the engine is in operation. If so, proceed to Step 3; otherwise, proceed to Step 4.
[0031] Step 3: Determine whether the engine water temperature is greater than or equal to the preset first temperature threshold Tx (in this embodiment, Tx = 60°C). If so, proceed to Step 5; otherwise (indicating that the engine water temperature is too low or the engine has stopped, and no utilization of the engine waste heat is performed), proceed to Step 4.
[0032] Step 4: Control the first outlet opening of the three-way proportional valve 3 to be 100% and the second outlet opening to be 0, control the PTC heater 13 to operate, and use the heat generated by the operation of the PTC heater 13 to heat the power battery, and then return to execute Step 1.
[0033] Step 5: Query the preset water inlet temperature table according to the power battery temperature to obtain the current desired water inlet temperature Ta for heating the power battery, and then proceed to Step 6; wherein, the preset water inlet temperature table is a corresponding relationship table between the power battery temperature and the desired water inlet temperature for heating the power battery obtained through calibration.
[0034] Step 6: Determine whether Ta > Tb + Ty. If so, proceed to Step 7; otherwise, proceed to Step 8. Wherein, Tb represents the current actual water inlet temperature of the power battery, and Ty represents the preset second temperature threshold. In this embodiment, Ty = 2°C.
[0035] Step 7: Make T t = T t-1 + Tz, and then proceed to Step 11. Wherein, Tz represents the preset third temperature threshold, T t-1 represents the previous desired water inlet temperature of the battery heat exchanger, T t represents the current desired water inlet temperature of the battery heat exchanger, and the initial value T0 of the desired water inlet temperature of the battery heat exchanger is equal to the preset fourth temperature threshold Tv. In this embodiment, Tz = 2°C and Tv = 50°C.
[0036] Step 8: Determine whether Ta < Tb - Ty. If so, proceed to Step 9; otherwise (that is, when Tb - Ty ≤ Ta ≤ Tb + Ty), proceed to Step 10.
[0037] Step 9: Make T t = T t-1 - Tz, and then proceed to Step 11.
[0038] Step 10: Make T t = T t-1 , and then proceed to Step 11.
[0039] Step 11: Determine whether T t>Tc + Ty. If so, execute the twelfth step; otherwise, execute the thirteenth step. Here, Tc represents the actual inlet water temperature of the current battery heat exchanger.
[0040] The twelfth step: Control the opening of the first outlet of the three-way proportional valve 3 to decrease by m and the opening of the second outlet to increase by m to increase the amount of engine cooling water introduced, and then return to execute the first step. Here, m represents the preset opening threshold. The initial value of the opening of the first outlet of the three-way proportional valve is 100%, and the initial value of the opening of the second outlet is 0. In this embodiment, m = 1%.
[0041] The thirteenth step: Judge whether T t <Tc - Ty. If so, execute the fourteenth step; otherwise (that is, when Tc - Ty ≤ T t ≤ Tc + Ty), execute the fifteenth step.
[0042] The fourteenth step: Control the opening of the first outlet of the three-way proportional valve 3 to increase by m and the opening of the second outlet to decrease by m to reduce the amount of engine cooling water introduced, and then return to execute the first step.
[0043] The fifteenth step: Control the openings of both the first outlet and the second outlet of the three-way proportional valve 3 to remain unchanged, and then return to execute the first step.
