[0041] With the development of new energy technologies, lithium batteries are widely used in various fields. During the production process of lithium batteries, after injecting the electrolyte into the battery cell, a sufficient infiltration process is required. If the infiltration is insufficient, it will lead to interface abnormalities such as dark marks and black spots on the interface during the formation and subsequent volume setting process. Currently, the industry mostly uses manual sampling to determine whether the battery cell is sufficiently infiltrated and whether it will cause interface abnormalities. However, this method has a small number of samplings and is prone to missing products.
[0042] In response to the above-mentioned problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a battery cell detection solution, which obtains the target open circuit voltage of the battery cell after the infiltration process; obtains the charging process data of the battery cell according to a preset charging process, and determines the target film-forming voltage of the solid electrolyte interface film in the battery cell based on the charging process data; and determines whether the battery cell has an infiltration abnormality based on the target open circuit voltage and the target film-forming voltage. In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the presence of an infiltration abnormality in the battery cell is determined based on the open circuit voltage and the film-forming voltage, and battery cell detection can be performed in batches. Not only is the detection efficiency high, which can reduce the risk of missing, but also there is no need to disassemble the battery cell, that is, non-destructive screening is achieved, and thus the various costs of detection investment can be reduced.
[0043] The battery cell detection method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to Figure 1 In the application environment shown. The application environment includes a computer device 101, a charging device 102, and a testing device 103, wherein the computer device 101 can communicate with the charging device 102 and the testing device 103 via a network. After connecting to the battery cell, the charging device 102 can charge the battery cell and collect data during the charging process. The testing device 103 can test the battery cell and obtain the open circuit voltage of the battery cell. The computer device 101 can obtain the charging process data collected by the charging device 102 and the open circuit voltage detected by the testing device 103.
[0044] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 2 , provides a battery cell detection method, which is applied to Figure 1 Taking the computer device in the example as an example, the embodiment of the present application may include the following steps:
[0045] Step 201 : obtaining a target open circuit voltage of the battery cell after the soaking process.
[0046] Among them, open circuit voltage (OCV) refers to the terminal voltage of the battery cell in the open circuit state.
[0047] The final steps in battery cell production include: cell casing, top cover welding, baking, liquid injection, high-temperature soaking, formation, secondary liquid injection, and high-temperature aging. After the high-temperature soaking process, the cells are left to rest for a period of time before being tested using testing equipment to determine the target open-circuit voltage. Computer equipment can obtain the target open-circuit voltage from the testing equipment.
[0048] Step 202 : acquiring charging process data of the battery cell according to a preset charging process, and determining a target film-forming voltage of a solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film in the battery cell based on the charging process data.
[0049] After the test, the battery cells are charged using a charging device according to a preset charging process, and data is collected during the charging process to obtain charging process data. During the charging process, the SEI film forms inside the battery cells, and the charging process data includes the battery cell voltage when the SEI film forms.
[0050] The computer device can obtain charging process data from the charging device. The computer device then processes the charging process data and analyzes the processed data using a preset algorithm to determine the cell voltage at which the SEI film forms within the battery cell. This cell voltage is then determined as the target film formation voltage. This data processing may include removing abnormal data points.
[0051] In some embodiments, the charging voltage can be increased at a constant rate during the charging process of the battery cell. Afterwards, data processing is performed based on the charging process data, and a preset algorithm is used to generate a CV (current-voltage) curve based on the processed data, and then the target film-forming voltage is determined based on the CV curve.
[0052] Step 203 : determining the wetness detection result of the battery cell according to the target open circuit voltage and the target film forming voltage.
[0053] Among them, the infiltration detection results are used to characterize whether there is infiltration abnormality in the battery cell.
[0054] Statistics of a large number of infiltration experimental data show that after the electrolyte is injected into the battery cell, the cathode and anode current collectors and the cathode and anode active substances begin to establish a solid-liquid surface potential with the liquid phase. The solid-liquid surface potential increases with the increase of the infiltration degree (the effective area of the electrolyte infiltrating the cathode and anode current collectors and the cathode and anode active substances). The solid-liquid surface potential changes regularly, which is reflected in the open circuit voltage (OCV) of the battery cell: the OCV of the battery cell gradually decreases and tends to a stable state, such as Figure 3 As shown, the horizontal axis is the immersion time, in hours (h); the vertical axis is the open circuit voltage, in millivolts (mV).
[0055] Furthermore, statistical analysis of extensive wetting experiment data reveals that a solid-liquid electrolyte interphase (SEI) forms on the graphite surface during the first charge of a battery cell. For a specific battery cell formulation and design, the SEI film formation voltage during the charging phase is stable. Abnormal SEI film formation voltage indicates wetting anomalies, or excessive water content or other impurities in the battery cell. These issues can also lead to abnormalities in the fully charged interface after aging.
[0056] Based on the above data statistics, after obtaining the target open-circuit voltage and target film-forming voltage, the embodiment of the present application can compare the target open-circuit voltage with the reference open-circuit voltage, and compare the target film-forming voltage with the reference film-forming voltage. Then, based on the comparison results, it is determined whether the battery cell has abnormal wetting, thereby determining whether the battery cell has abnormalities at the full charge interface after aging.
[0057] In the above embodiment, the target open circuit voltage of the battery cell after the infiltration process is obtained; the charging process data of the battery cell according to the preset charging process is obtained, and the target film-forming voltage of the solid electrolyte interface film in the battery cell is determined based on the charging process data; and the presence of infiltration anomalies in the battery cell is determined based on the target open circuit voltage and the target film-forming voltage. In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the presence of infiltration anomalies in the battery cell is determined based on the open circuit voltage and the film-forming voltage, and the battery cell detection can be carried out in batches. Not only is the detection efficiency high and the risk of missing kills can be reduced, but there is no need to disassemble the battery cell, thereby reducing various costs of detection investment.
[0058] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 4 In the above embodiment, “determining the wetting detection result of the battery cell according to the target open circuit voltage and the target film forming voltage” may include the following steps:
[0059] Step 301 : Calculate the voltage difference between the target open circuit voltage and the target film forming voltage.
[0060] For example, the target open circuit voltage is V OCV , the target film forming voltage is V SEI , then the voltage difference is ΔE=V SEI -V OCV .
[0061] Step 302 : If the voltage difference exceeds the preset voltage range, it is determined that the result of the cell wetting detection is that the cell has a wetting abnormality.
[0062] The preset voltage range is obtained by pre-statistically analyzing voltage differences corresponding to a plurality of test samples.
[0063] Pre-calculate the voltage difference corresponding to multiple test products, refer to Figure 5a The horizontal axis is the battery cell number, and the vertical axis is the voltage difference, in mV; the figure shows the voltage difference of 20,000 battery cells.
[0064] In practical applications, a variety of methods can be used to perform statistical analysis on the voltage difference of the test sample to obtain the preset voltage range. For example, the upper and lower limits of the voltage difference are calculated by using the mean value ± 3σ to obtain the preset voltage range. Figure 5b .
[0065] After obtaining the voltage difference of the battery cell, determine whether the voltage difference exceeds the preset voltage range. If the voltage difference exceeds the preset voltage range, indicating that the target open circuit voltage and / or target film-forming voltage of the battery cell are abnormal, it can be determined that the result of the infiltration detection of the battery cell is that the battery cell has an infiltration abnormality, which is likely to cause abnormalities in the full charge interface of the battery cell after aging. If the voltage difference does not exceed the preset voltage range, indicating that the target open circuit voltage and target film-forming voltage of the battery cell are normal, it can be determined that the result of the infiltration detection of the battery cell is that the battery cell does not have an infiltration abnormality, which is not likely to cause abnormalities in the full charge interface of the battery cell after aging.
[0066] In the above embodiment, the voltage difference between the target open-circuit voltage and the target film-forming voltage is calculated; if the voltage difference exceeds a preset voltage range, the cell wetting detection result is determined to indicate a wetting anomaly. In the technical solution of the present embodiment, using the voltage difference to determine whether a cell has a wetting anomaly is more accurate than using either the target open-circuit voltage or the target film-forming voltage alone.
[0067] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 6 In the above embodiment, “determining the wetting detection result of the battery cell according to the target open circuit voltage and the target film forming voltage” may include the following steps:
[0068] Step 401: Determine a first detection result according to a target open circuit voltage and a preset open circuit voltage.
[0069] Based on the trend of the battery cell OCV changing with the soaking time, a preset open circuit voltage can be determined. After obtaining the target open circuit voltage, the target open circuit voltage is compared with the preset open circuit voltage. If the target open circuit voltage is less than or equal to the preset open circuit voltage, it indicates that the trend of the target open circuit voltage of the battery cell changing with the soaking time is normal, and the first detection result is determined to be that there is no soaking abnormality in the battery cell. If the target open circuit voltage is greater than the preset open circuit voltage, it indicates that the trend of the target open circuit voltage of the battery cell changing with the soaking time is abnormal, and the first detection result is determined to be that there is a soaking abnormality in the battery cell.
[0070] It should be noted that different immersion times correspond to different preset open circuit voltages.
[0071] Step 402 : Determine a second detection result according to the target film forming voltage and the preset film forming voltage.
[0072] For a specific battery cell formula and design, the SEI film formation voltage during the charging phase is a stable value. The SEI film formation voltage in historical data can be statistically analyzed to obtain a preset film formation voltage.
[0073] After obtaining the target film-forming voltage, the target film-forming voltage is compared with the preset film-forming voltage. If the target film-forming voltage is less than or equal to the preset film-forming voltage, indicating that the target film-forming voltage of the battery cell is normal, the second detection result is determined to be that the battery cell does not have a wetting abnormality. If the target film-forming voltage is greater than the preset film-forming voltage, indicating that the target film-forming voltage of the battery cell is abnormal, the second detection result is determined to be that the battery cell does have a wetting abnormality.
[0074] Step 403 : determining a third detection result according to the voltage difference between the target open circuit voltage and the target film forming voltage.
[0075] Referring to the above embodiment, the voltage difference between the target open circuit voltage and the target film forming voltage is calculated. If the voltage difference exceeds the preset voltage range, the third detection result is determined to be that there is a wetting abnormality in the battery cell; if the voltage difference is within the preset voltage range, the third detection result is determined to be that there is no wetting abnormality in the battery cell.
[0076] Step 404 : Determine the infiltration detection result of the battery cell according to the first detection result, the second detection result, and the third detection result.
[0077] After obtaining the first, second, and third test results, the infiltration detection result of the battery cell can be determined in a variety of ways. For example, if any one of the first, second, and third test results indicates that the battery cell has an infiltration abnormality, the infiltration detection result of the battery cell is determined to be an abnormality. Alternatively, if at least two of the first, second, and third test results indicate that the battery cell has an infiltration abnormality, the infiltration detection result of the battery cell is determined to be an abnormality.
[0078] In the above embodiment, a first detection result is determined based on the target open-circuit voltage and a preset open-circuit voltage; a second detection result is determined based on the target film-forming voltage and a preset film-forming voltage; a third detection result is determined based on the voltage difference between the target open-circuit voltage and the target film-forming voltage; and a cell wetness detection result is determined based on the first, second, and third detection results. In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, utilizing multiple detection results for detection can improve detection accuracy and reduce the risk of over- and under-detection.
[0079] According to some embodiments of the present application, the charging process data includes the charging capacity and charging voltage at multiple charging moments, referring to Figure 7 In the above embodiment, “determining the target film-forming voltage of the solid electrolyte interface film in the battery cell according to the charging process data” may include the following steps:
[0080] Step 501 : determining a charging capacity difference and a charging voltage difference between every two adjacent charging moments based on the charging capacity and charging voltage at multiple charging moments.
[0081] For the acquired charging process data, the difference between the charging capacity at time t2 and the charging capacity at time t1 is calculated to obtain multiple charging capacity difference values; the difference between the charging voltage at time t2 and the charging voltage at time t1 is calculated to obtain multiple charging voltage difference values, where t2 = t1 + 1.
[0082] Step 502 : determining a differential capacitance curve according to a plurality of charging capacity differences and charging voltage differences.
[0083] Calculate the ratio of each charge capacity difference to the charge voltage difference at the corresponding moment, and determine the differential capacitance curve based on the ratio and the charge voltage, referring to formula (1) and Figure 8 In the figure, the horizontal axis is the charging voltage, in volts (V), and the vertical axis is the ratio of the charging capacity difference to the charging voltage difference at the corresponding moment.
[0084] -----------------------------------(1)
[0085] Where Q is the charge capacity and V is the charge voltage.
[0086] Step 503 : extracting a peak voltage from a preset voltage interval of the differential capacitance curve, and determining the peak voltage as a target film-forming voltage of the solid electrolyte interface film in the battery cell.
[0087] The film forming voltage is usually between 2.0V and 2.8V, so 2.0V to 2.8V is determined as the preset voltage interval.
[0088] The computer device can use simulation software or a preset algorithm to extract the peak voltage between 2.0V and 2.8V from the differential capacitance curve and determine the peak voltage as the target SEI film formation voltage. It can be understood that using the computer device to calculate the charge capacity difference and the charge voltage difference, determine the differential capacitance curve based on the charge capacity difference and the charge voltage difference, and extract the peak voltage from the differential capacitance curve not only allows for batch voltage testing, but also improves detection efficiency compared to manual testing.
[0089] In the above embodiment, the charge capacity difference and charge voltage difference between each two adjacent charge moments are determined based on the charge capacity and charge voltage at multiple charge moments; a differential capacitance curve is determined based on the multiple charge capacity differences and charge voltage differences; the peak voltage is extracted from the preset voltage range of the differential capacitance curve, and the peak voltage is determined as the target film-forming voltage of the solid electrolyte interface film in the battery cell. In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the differential capacitance curve is determined based on the charge capacity and charge voltage, and a relatively accurate target film-forming voltage can be extracted, providing an accurate basis for detecting the infiltration effect, thereby improving the accuracy of battery cell detection.
[0090] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 9 In the above embodiment, “obtaining charging process data of a battery cell according to a preset charging process” may include the following steps:
[0091] Step 601: Control the charging device to perform constant current charging on the battery cell according to a preset charging rate and a preset charging time.
[0092] The preset charging time is determined by the preset state of charge (SOC) and the preset charge rate. For example, if the preset SOC is 0.01% and the preset charge rate is 0.05C, the preset charging time T = 1 / 0.05C * 0.01% * 60 = 12 (min).
[0093] It should be noted that the lower the charge rate, the less impact the polarization reaction inside the cell has on the SEI film formation potential during charging. Considering the charging time, the charge rate can be set below 0.1C. Optionally, the preset charge rate is 0.05C.
[0094] After the charging device is connected to the battery cell, the computer device sends a control instruction to the charging device, which carries a preset charging rate and a preset charging time. The charging device receives the control instruction and charges the battery cell with a constant current according to the control instruction.
[0095] Alternatively, the computer device sends control information to the charging device for storage in advance, the control information including a preset charging rate and a preset charging time. After the charging device is connected to the battery cell, the battery cell is charged with a constant current according to the pre-stored control information.
[0096] For example, the charging device uses a constant current of 0.05C to charge the battery cell for 12 minutes.
[0097] In some embodiments, after the charging device performs constant current charging on the battery cell according to a preset charging rate and a preset charging time, the computer device controls the charging device to form the battery cell. The formation process may include: standing still for 30 seconds, and charging the battery cell with a constant current at a charging rate of 0.1C until the state of charge of the battery cell reaches 0.3% or higher. It should be noted that the standing time, charging rate, state of charge at the end of charging, and charging time in the formation process can all be set according to actual conditions.
[0098] Step 602: Acquire charging process data collected by the charging device during the charging process.
[0099] During the charging process, the charging device collects charging capacity and charging voltage at multiple times to obtain charging process data. The charging device can send this charging process data to the computer in real time during the collection process, or it can send all charging process data to the computer after the battery cell is fully charged. Alternatively, the charging device can store the charging process data after data collection, and the computer can derive the charging process data from the charging device when determining the battery cell infiltration detection results.
[0100] It should be noted that the manner in which the computer device obtains the charging process data from the charging device is not limited to the above example and can be set according to actual conditions.
[0101] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the charging device is controlled to charge the battery cell with a constant current according to a preset charge rate and a preset charge duration; and charging process data collected by the charging device during the charging process is obtained. In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the constant current charging of the battery cell according to the preset charge rate and a preset charge duration can minimize the impact of the polarization reaction on the film-forming voltage, thereby making the film-forming voltage more stable and thereby improving the accuracy of the infiltration detection.
[0102] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 10 In the above embodiment, “obtaining the target open circuit voltage of the battery cell after the soaking process” includes:
[0103] Step 701 , obtaining a plurality of original open circuit voltages obtained by performing open circuit voltage detection on the battery cell after the soaking process, each time the battery cell is left to stand for a preset time.
[0104] After the high-temperature soaking process, let the cell rest. Then, test the open circuit voltage of the cell every 10 seconds to obtain an original open circuit voltage. Perform three tests to obtain three original open circuit voltages.
[0105] It should be noted that the preset time length can be 20 seconds or longer, and the number of detections can be 3-10 times or more. In actual applications, the preset time length and number of detections can be determined by comprehensively considering test accuracy and test efficiency.
[0106] Step 702 : determining a target open circuit voltage according to a plurality of original open circuit voltages.
[0107] After obtaining multiple original open circuit voltages, the minimum open circuit voltage among the multiple original open circuit voltages may be determined as the target open circuit voltage; or the maximum open circuit voltage among the multiple original open circuit voltages may be determined as the target open circuit voltage.
[0108] In the above embodiment, multiple raw open-circuit voltages are obtained by testing the cell after the soaking process, after each cell is left to rest for a preset period of time. A target open-circuit voltage is determined based on these multiple raw open-circuit voltages. In the technical solution of the present embodiment, multiple open-circuit voltage tests can reduce test errors, improve the accuracy of the target open-circuit voltage, and thus improve the accuracy of soaking detection.
[0109] According to some embodiments of the present application, "determining the target open circuit voltage based on multiple original open circuit voltages" in the above embodiment may include: calculating the average open circuit voltage of the multiple original open circuit voltages, and determining the average open circuit voltage as the target open circuit voltage.
[0110] For example, the open circuit voltage of the battery cell is tested once every 10 seconds to obtain an original open circuit voltage. The three tests are performed three times to obtain three original open circuit voltages V1, V2, and V3. The average value of V1, V2, and V3 is calculated. OCV , V OCV Determine the target open circuit voltage.
[0111] In the above embodiment, the average open-circuit voltage of multiple raw open-circuit voltages is calculated and the average open-circuit voltage is determined as the target open-circuit voltage. In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the average voltage value is used as the target open-circuit voltage, which can reduce test errors, improve the accuracy of the target open-circuit voltage, and thus improve the accuracy of infiltration detection.
[0112] According to some embodiments of the present application, a battery cell detection method is provided, which is applied to Figure 1 Taking the computer device in the example as an example, the following steps may be included:
[0113] Step 1: obtaining a plurality of original open circuit voltages obtained by performing open circuit voltage detection on the battery cell after the soaking process by standing for a preset time.
[0114] Step 2: Calculate an average open circuit voltage of the multiple original open circuit voltages and determine the average open circuit voltage as the target open circuit voltage.
[0115] Step 3: Control the charging device to perform constant current charging on the battery cell according to a preset charging rate and a preset charging time.
[0116] The preset charging time is determined based on the preset state of charge and the preset charging rate.
[0117] Step 4: Obtain charging process data collected by the charging device during the charging process.
[0118] The charging process data includes the charging capacity and charging voltage at multiple charging moments.
[0119] Step 5: Determine the charging capacity difference and charging voltage difference between every two adjacent charging moments based on the charging capacity and charging voltage at multiple charging moments.
[0120] Step 6: Determine a differential capacitance curve based on the multiple charging capacity differences and charging voltage differences.
[0121] Step 7: extract the peak voltage from the preset voltage range of the differential capacitance curve, and determine the peak voltage as the target film-forming voltage of the solid electrolyte interface film in the battery cell.
[0122] Step 8: Calculate the voltage difference between the target open circuit voltage and the target film forming voltage.
[0123] Step 9: If the voltage difference exceeds the preset voltage range, the cell infiltration detection result is determined to be abnormal cell infiltration; wherein the preset voltage range is obtained by pre-statistically analyzing the voltage differences corresponding to multiple test samples.
[0124] In the above embodiment, multiple detections of the open circuit voltage can reduce the test error and improve the accuracy of the target open circuit voltage; constant current charging of the battery cell according to a preset charging rate and a preset charging time can minimize the influence of the polarization reaction on the film-forming voltage, thereby making the film-forming voltage more stable; determining the differential capacitance curve according to the charging capacity and the charging voltage can extract a more accurate target film-forming voltage; using the voltage difference to determine whether the battery cell has an infiltration anomaly is more accurate than using the target open circuit voltage or the target film-forming voltage alone for detection. In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the battery cell is determined to have an infiltration anomaly based on the open circuit voltage and the film-forming voltage, and the battery cell detection can be carried out in batches. Not only is the detection efficiency high and the risk of missing is reduced, but there is no need to disassemble the battery cell, thereby reducing various costs of detection investment.
