[0039] In a specific embodiment of the present application, a method for evaluating the health status of a power battery cell is provided, which is described by taking its application in the above-mentioned power battery cell health status evaluation system as an example. As the number of charge and discharge cycles increases, the ohmic internal resistance of the cell will slowly increase, and the nominal capacity of the cell will gradually decay. Therefore, the health status of the cell can be indirectly quantified by the ohmic internal resistance of the cell. Figure 1 As shown, a method for evaluating the health status of a power battery cell proposed in this embodiment has the following specific steps:

[0040] (1) Edge side (i.e. edge master control unit side):

[0041] Step 01: Data collection. Periodically collect the terminal voltage sequence of all monomers {U i,k-1 ,U i,k ,U i,k+1}、Current sequence {I i,k-1 ,I i,k ,I i,k+1}, and the vehicle speed sequence {v k-1 ,v k ,v k+1}, where i represents the monomer number and the sampling time k≥1.

[0042] Step 02: Real-time working condition identification. k -v k-1 |v k+1 -v k | are close in value and both are smaller than the design threshold. Specifically, if |v k -v k-1 |v k+1 -v k | is less than a preset value and is less than the design threshold, the vehicle is considered to be in a stable operating condition; if |v k+1 -v k |v k -v k-1 | are greater than the design threshold and satisfy v k+1 >v k >v k-1 , the vehicle is considered to be in an accelerating condition; if |v k+1 -v k |v k -v k-1 | are greater than the design threshold and satisfy v k+1 <v k <v k-1 , the vehicle is considered to be in a deceleration condition.

[0054] Method 2: Estimation of Ohmic Internal Resistance Based on Charging Characteristics

[0055] Step 21: Data-driven charging condition identification. Based on the cloud database, fit U i (k) and v(k) change curve. If v(k) is 0 for a period of time, and U i (k) shows an increasing trend, it is considered that the vehicle is in charging condition during this period.

[0056] Step 22: Capture the steep rise in single cell voltage at the initial stage of charging. Design a sliding time window STW c , focus on STW c All charging initial stages in the interval U i(k) Mark the starting and ending points of each part of the curve where the curve rises sharply, and calculate the average pressure difference between all the starting and ending points and will Stored in the database. satisfy

[0059] Step 23 Normalization. Considering the differences in charging pile specifications and charging strategies, the vehicle charging current is also different. However, since the cells are connected in series, the charging current of each cell is the same, so the normalized To indirectly characterize the relative size of the monomer ohmic internal resistance.

[0060] Step 24: Move STW along the time axis regularly c , and move forward p one step, that is, p=p+1, and repeat Step 21-Step 23 to realize the online indirect estimation of the monomer-level ohmic internal resistance.

[0061] Finally, the estimation results of methods 1 and 2 are comprehensively considered, and the phased estimation results of the ohmic internal resistance estimation method based on equivalent impedance characteristic parameters and the ohmic internal resistance estimation method based on charging characteristics are integrated to realize the online evaluation of the battery health status. The phased normalized ohmic internal resistance is used to perform online evaluation of the single-cell level battery health status:
