Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle safety technology, and in particular to a method, device, vehicle, and storage medium for detecting charger water temperature. Background Technology

[0002] The charger affects the vehicle's charging performance, drivability, and entertainment features, directly impacting the user experience. Therefore, ensuring the charger's reliability and stability under various operating conditions is crucial. During operation, the charger generates a significant amount of heat. Coolant in the water channels dissipates this heat, lowering the charger's temperature and thus improving its stability and reliability.

[0003] In related technologies, sensors are installed on the walls of the water channels inside the charger to collect water temperature values. The cooling water temperature is then compared with the temperature calibrated by the charger's internal software. If the calibrated temperature is exceeded, power is limited to prevent excessive heat from damaging the charger.

[0004] However, in related technologies, the results of charger water temperature acquisition are susceptible to abnormal factors. When the sampling circuit is damaged and cannot be used correctly, or when the sampling error is too large, it will cause the charger to trigger false protection or fail to protect, affecting the whole vehicle, making the vehicle unable to be used normally, and affecting the user experience.

[0035] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0036] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, outlines a method, apparatus, vehicle, and storage medium for detecting charger coolant temperature according to embodiments of this application. Addressing the technical problem mentioned in the background art, where relying on sensors for charger temperature sampling can easily lead to abnormal sampling results due to various factors, thus affecting the vehicle's response control to abnormal temperatures and impacting normal vehicle operation, this application provides a method for detecting charger coolant temperature. In this method, a first coolant temperature from the inlet of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system and a second coolant temperature reported by the motor controller and drive components are collected. Combined with the current opening degree of the vehicle's water pump and the current operating condition of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system, a first fitted coolant temperature and a second fitted coolant temperature of the charger are determined. Based on the first fitted coolant temperature, the second fitted coolant temperature, and the third coolant temperature reported by the charger, the calculated coolant temperature of the charger is obtained.

This solves the technical problem in related technologies where relying on sensors to sample charger temperature can easily lead to abnormal sampling results due to various factors, thus affecting the vehicle's response and control to abnormal temperatures and impacting the normal use of the vehicle.

[0037] Before describing the charger water temperature detection method of the embodiments of this application, the vehicle structure involved in the embodiments of this application will be described by way of example.

[0038] like Figure 1As shown, the vehicle in this embodiment of the application includes an electric drive cooling system, which may include: a water inlet A1, a charger A2, a motor controller and drive assembly A3, and a water outlet A4.

[0039] In practical applications, cooling water enters the charger A2 through the inlet A1, then enters the motor controller and drive assembly A3 from the charger A2, and finally exits through the outlet A4, thus forming an electric drive cooling system.

[0040] Specifically, Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for detecting the water temperature of a charger, as provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the method for detecting the water temperature of the charger includes the following steps:

[0042] In step S201, the first water temperature of the inlet A1 of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system and the second water temperature reported by the motor controller and drive component A3 are collected.

[0043] In actual implementation, the embodiments of this application can utilize, for example, a temperature sensor to collect the first water temperature T1 of the water inlet A1 of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system, and obtain the second water temperature T2 reported by the motor controller and drive component A3.

[0044] In step S102, the current opening degree of the vehicle water pump and the current operating condition of the vehicle electric drive cooling system are obtained, and the first fitted temperature difference of the charger A2 and the second fitted temperature difference of the motor controller and drive assembly A3 are determined based on the current opening degree and the current operating condition.

[0045] In some embodiments, the present application embodiments can obtain the current opening degree of the vehicle water pump and the current operating condition of the vehicle electric drive cooling system, including the current operating condition of the charger A2 and the current operating condition of the motor controller and drive assembly A3, thereby determining a first fitted temperature difference of the charger A2 based on the current opening degree and the current operating condition of the charger A2, and determining a second fitted temperature difference of the motor controller and drive assembly A3 based on the current opening degree and the current operating condition of the motor controller and drive assembly A3.

[0046] The first fitted temperature difference can be understood as the temperature difference of the cooling water in the channel from the inlet A1 to the charger A2, and the second fitted temperature difference can be understood as the temperature difference of the cooling water in the channel from the charger A2 to the motor controller and drive assembly A3.

[0047] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, determining the first fitted temperature difference of charger A2 based on the current opening degree and the current operating condition includes: obtaining the first fitted temperature difference from a pre-constructed first fitted curve using the current opening degree and the current operating condition, wherein the first fitted curve is obtained from the calibration temperature difference value of charger A2 under at least one water pump opening condition.

[0048] As one possible implementation, embodiments of this application can pre-construct a first fitting curve, which can be obtained by fitting sample data. The sample data can be obtained from calibration data under different pump opening degrees and different operating conditions. Specifically, as shown in Table 1, Table 1 is a sample data table of temperature difference curves fitted using calibration data.

[0049] Table 1

[0050]

[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the application, the first fitted temperature difference ΔT1 of the charger A2 can be obtained by substituting the current opening degree and the current operating condition into the first fitted curve.

[0052] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, determining the second fitted temperature difference of the motor controller and drive component A3 based on the current opening degree and the current operating condition includes: obtaining the second fitted temperature difference from a pre-constructed second fitted curve using the current opening degree and the current operating condition, wherein the second fitted curve is obtained from the calibration temperature difference value of the motor controller and drive component A3 under at least one water pump opening condition.

[0053] In other words, the embodiments of this application can also pre-construct a second fitting curve, which can be obtained by fitting sample data. The sample data can be obtained by calibration data under different pump opening degrees and different operating conditions. Specifically, as shown in Table 2, Table 2 is a sample data table of temperature difference curves fitted by calibration data.

[0054] Table 2

[0055]

[0056]

[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the application, the second fitted temperature difference ΔT2 of the charger A2 can be obtained by substituting the current opening degree and the current operating condition into the second fitted curve.

[0058] In step S103, the first fitted water temperature of charger A2 is obtained based on the first water temperature and the first fitted temperature difference, the second fitted water temperature of charger A2 is obtained based on the second water temperature and the second fitted temperature difference, and the calculated water temperature of charger A2 is obtained based on the first fitted water temperature, the second fitted water temperature and the third water temperature reported by charger A2.

[0059] In actual implementation, the embodiments of this application can obtain the first fitted water temperature of charger A2, i.e., T1+△T1, by superimposing the first water temperature T1 and the first fitted temperature difference △T1; the embodiments of this application can obtain the second fitted water temperature of charger A2, i.e., T2-△T2, by subtracting the second water temperature T2 and the second fitted temperature difference △T2.

[0060] In this embodiment of the application, after calculating the first fitted water temperature and the second fitted water temperature, the calculated water temperature of charger A2 can be obtained by combining the third water temperature T3 reported by charger A2.

[0061] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the calculated water temperature of charger A2 is obtained based on the first fitted water temperature, the second fitted water temperature, and the third water temperature reported by charger A2, including: calculating the average value of the first fitted water temperature, the second fitted water temperature, and the third water temperature to obtain the calculated water temperature.

[0062] The method for calculating the water temperature is to calculate the average of the first fitted water temperature, the second fitted water temperature, and the third water temperature to obtain the actual reportable temperature of charger A2, thereby increasing the accuracy of the final reported temperature of charger A2.

[0063] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, after obtaining the calculated water temperature of the charger A2, the method further includes: reporting the calculated water temperature as the actual water temperature of the charger A2 to a preset terminal, so that the preset terminal adjusts the water pump opening of the vehicle based on the actual water temperature.

[0064] As one possible implementation method, the embodiments of this application can use the calculated water temperature as the actual water temperature of the charger A2 and report it to a preset terminal. The preset terminal can be a vehicle terminal, a mobile terminal of a user associated with the vehicle, or a maintenance terminal of the car manufacturer, etc.

[0065] For example, when the preset terminal is a vehicle terminal, the vehicle in this application embodiment can determine whether the vehicle needs to adjust the water pump opening based on the actual water temperature, and when it is determined that the water pump opening needs to be adjusted, a corresponding control command is generated to control the vehicle's water pump to adjust the opening.

[0066] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the working principle of the charger A2 water temperature detection method of this application embodiment is explained in detail with reference to one embodiment. Figure 3 As shown, embodiments of this application may include the following steps:

[0067] Step S301: Detect the temperature of the water inlet A1, i.e. the first water temperature TI, through the vehicle's overall thermal management system and report it.

[0068] Step S302: Using the first fitted curve, obtain the first fitted temperature difference ΔT1 under the current operating conditions of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system at the current water pump opening degree.

[0069] Step S303: By superimposing the first water temperature T1 and the first fitted temperature difference ΔT1, the first fitted water temperature of charger A2 is obtained, namely T1+ΔT1.

[0070] Step S304: Obtain the temperature reported by the motor controller and drive component A3, i.e., the second water temperature T2.

[0071] Step S305: Using the second fitting curve, obtain the second fitted temperature difference ΔT2 under the current operating conditions of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system at the current water pump opening degree.

[0072] Step S306: Subtract the second water temperature T2 and the second fitted temperature difference ΔT2 to obtain the second fitted water temperature of charger A2, i.e., T2-ΔT2.

[0073] Step S307: Obtain the water temperature collected by charger A2, i.e., the third water temperature T3.

[0074] Step S308: Calculate the average value of the first fitted water temperature, the second fitted water temperature and the third water temperature, and report the average value as the actual water temperature of the charger A2.

[0075] In summary, the embodiments of this application can estimate the heating temperature of charger A2 by measuring the temperature of the inlet and outlet nozzles of the cooling water flowing through each component in the electric drive cooling system, and by calibrating the temperature difference between charger A2, motor controller, and drive component A3 under different operating conditions. This estimation is then compared with the temperature reported by charger A2 itself, discarding unqualified data and processing the remaining data to obtain the estimated water temperature of charger A2 and report it correctly. This reduces the unpleasant experience caused by the power supply's own temperature sampling triggering without protection or without protection.

[0076] The charger water temperature detection method proposed in this application can collect the first water temperature at the inlet of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system and the second water temperature reported by the motor controller and drive components. Combined with the current opening of the vehicle's water pump and the current operating conditions of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system, a first fitted water temperature and a second fitted water temperature of the charger are determined. Based on the first fitted water temperature, the second fitted water temperature, and the third water temperature reported by the charger, the calculated water temperature of the charger is obtained. This increases the accuracy of the charger's reported temperature, reduces the impact of sensor failure on charger temperature sampling, reduces the probability of incorrect vehicle response, ensures normal vehicle operation, and improves the user experience. Therefore, it solves the technical problem in related technologies where relying on sensors for charger temperature sampling can easily lead to abnormal sampling results due to various factors, thus affecting the vehicle's response control to abnormal temperatures and impacting normal vehicle operation.

[0080] Specifically, the acquisition module 100 is used to acquire the first water temperature at the inlet of the vehicle's electric drive cooling system and the second water temperature reported by the motor controller and drive components.

[0081] The determination module 200 is used to obtain the current opening degree of the vehicle water pump and the current operating condition of the vehicle electric drive cooling system, and to determine the first fitted temperature difference of the charger and the second fitted temperature difference of the motor controller and drive components based on the current opening degree and the current operating condition.

[0085] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the determining module 200 includes: a first acquisition unit.

[0087] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the determining module 200 includes: a second acquisition unit.
