[0046] In some optional embodiments provided by this invention, the intelligent driving scenario information of the target vehicle includes:

[0047] Urban driving: When driving in the city, vehicles frequently start and stop, so the requirements for batteries and energy storage systems are mainly reflected in efficient charging and discharging, heat dissipation, and safety monitoring.

[0048] High-speed driving: When driving at high speeds, the requirements of a vehicle for its battery and energy storage system are mainly reflected in continuous and stable energy output and safety.

[0049] Extreme weather and road conditions: In extreme weather (such as high temperature or severe cold) or harsh road conditions, heat dissipation, heat preservation and safety protection of batteries and energy storage systems are particularly important.

[0050] Specifically, the power domain parameters include: energy storage system temperature information, current information, voltage information, and instrument display information; target control decisions include: current limiting, overvoltage protection, high voltage cutoff, and instrument display alarms.

[0051] In this embodiment of the invention, the target control strategy further includes temperature monitoring and control. Specifically, high-precision temperature sensors are deployed at key locations within the energy storage system to monitor temperature changes in the battery and wiring harness in real time. The temperature data is processed and analyzed using algorithms to predict potential thermal runaway risks and provide early warnings. Based on different driving scenarios, the temperature monitoring threshold and response strategy are adjusted to ensure the safe and stable operation of the energy storage system even under extreme conditions.

[0052] Specifically, the current limiting control decision includes:

[0053] Based on the battery's charging and discharging characteristics and the needs of the current driving scenario, a reasonable current limit value is set; when the current exceeds the limit value, the charging and discharging current is reduced through control strategies to prevent the battery from overheating or being damaged; the current changes are monitored in real time and dynamically adjusted as needed to ensure the stability and safety of power output.

[0054] Specifically, overvoltage protection control decisions include:

[0055] During charging, the battery voltage is monitored in real time. When the voltage exceeds the preset safety threshold, the charging circuit is automatically cut off to prevent overcharging from causing battery damage or safety accidents. A reasonable voltage recovery strategy is set to restore the charging function after the voltage drops to a safe range.

[0056] Specifically, the decision to cut off high-voltage control includes:

[0057] In the event of a serious malfunction or emergency, such as a battery short circuit or thermal runaway, the high-voltage relay quickly cuts off the high-voltage circuit to prevent the accident from escalating. Multiple safety protection mechanisms are in place to ensure that cutting off the high-voltage circuit does not affect other safety functions of the vehicle (such as braking and steering).

[0058] Specifically, the instrument display alarm control decisions include:

[0059] The system displays key parameters of the energy storage system (such as voltage, current, and temperature) in real time on the vehicle's dashboard, allowing the driver to understand the vehicle's status. When an abnormality is detected, it will issue an alarm through sound, light, or other means to remind the driver to take appropriate measures.

[0060] As described above, the embodiments of the present invention provide a control method for a vehicle-mounted intelligent energy storage system safety status detection device. Based on different driving scenarios, the method integrates power domain energy storage system safety status detection and, through reasonable allocation of measures such as temperature acquisition and monitoring, current limiting, overvoltage protection, high voltage cut-off, and instrument display alarms for the energy storage system safety status, can significantly improve the controllability and safety of new energy vehicles.
