[0079] Example 2

[0080] The embodiment of the present invention provides an electric aircraft heat dissipation optimization method based on deep reinforcement learning. The difference from the embodiment 1 is that the electric aircraft heat dissipation optimization method further includes:

[0081] Monitor the operating status of the electric aircraft in real time, obtain the real-time temperature, actual heat dissipation efficiency and actual heat generation efficiency of the motor at each time point, and calculate the real-time temperature anomaly risk index; allocate the cooling system monitoring resources of the electric aircraft based on the real-time temperature anomaly risk index.

[0082] It needs to be further explained in the embodiment of the present invention that the temperature anomaly risk index is obtained in the following manner:

[0083] According to the real-time temperature, heat generation efficiency and heat dissipation efficiency of the motor, the heating rate of the motor is calculated using the heat balance equation;

[0087] What needs to be further explained in the embodiment of the present invention is that when the temperature anomaly risk index exceeds a preset value, the temperature anomaly risk index is made within a threshold value by adjusting the actual heat dissipation efficiency and / or the actual heat generation efficiency.

[0088] What needs to be further explained in the embodiments of the present invention is that when the temperature anomaly risk index exceeds the preset value, the actual heat dissipation efficiency or the actual heat generation efficiency is automatically adjusted according to the preset priority and strategy. For example, the fan speed or the cooling medium flow rate is increased to improve the heat dissipation efficiency; if the heat dissipation capacity has reached its limit, consider reducing the motor load or output power to reduce heat generation.

[0089] Summary: According to the size of the real-time temperature anomaly risk index, the allocation of cooling system monitoring resources can be adjusted automatically or manually. For example, for areas or components with higher risks, the monitoring frequency can be increased or the monitoring accuracy can be improved. Potential overheating, poor cooling and other problems can be discovered and handled in a timely manner, thereby ensuring the safe operation of electric aircraft.
