Description

Technical Field

[0002] According to the way the battery is connected to the high-voltage bus, the topology of fuel cell vehicles is generally divided into a unidirectional DC-DC structure and a bidirectional DC-DC structure. However, these two topologies have the following problems: like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the unidirectional DC-DC structure is to connect the battery directly in parallel on both sides of the high-voltage bus, without the need for a separate DC-DC converter. The advantages of this structure are simple structure and low cost, but because the battery is directly connected to the high-voltage bus, the high-voltage bus voltage will vary over a large range with the remaining power of the battery, which will cause certain difficulties in motor design. In addition, since this structure has only one DC-DC converter, the power distribution of the battery and the fuel cell can only be indirectly controlled by adjusting the high-voltage bus voltage, and direct energy decoupling control cannot be achieved.

[0003] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the bidirectional DC-DC structure is equipped with a DC-DC converter for the fuel cell and the battery respectively, that is, the fuel cell and the battery are connected to the high-voltage bus through a DC-DC converter respectively. The advantage of this structure is that the voltage of the high-voltage bus is relatively constant, and it is convenient to decouple and control the power distribution of the fuel cell and the battery, but the disadvantage is that it is large in size and high in cost.

[0023] In other embodiments of the present invention, a control method for a three-port converter suitable for a fuel cell vehicle is provided.

[0024] Example 1 like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a three-port converter suitable for a fuel cell vehicle is provided in this embodiment. The topological structure of the three-port converter 7 includes: a primary-side interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8 and a secondary-side phase-shifted full bridge 9.

The primary sides of the first coupled inductor L1 and the second coupled inductor L2 are used as filter inductors of the first Boost branch 11 and the second Boost branch 12 respectively; after the secondary sides of the first coupled inductor L1 and the second coupled inductor L2 are connected in reverse series, the leakage inductance is converted to the secondary side phase-shifted full bridge 9.

[0027] Preferably, the secondary side phase-shift full bridge 9 includes a third coupling inductor L3, a fourth coupling inductor L4 and a phase-shift full bridge 12. The third coupling inductor L3 and the fourth coupling inductor L4 are connected in series, and both ends are connected to the midpoint of the phase-shift full bridge 14 respectively, and the third coupling inductor L3 is coupled to the secondary side of the first coupling inductor L1 in the primary side interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8, and the fourth coupling inductor L4 is coupled to the second coupling inductor L2 in the primary side interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8.

[0028] Preferably, the phase-shift full bridge 12 includes a first phase-shift branch 13, a second phase-shift branch 14 and a capacitor branch 15 connected in parallel, the first phase-shift branch 13 includes a first secondary side upper switch tube Q1 and a first secondary side lower switch tube Q2 connected in series, and the connection between the first secondary side upper switch tube Q1 and the first secondary side lower switch tube Q2 serves as one of the midpoints of the phase-shift full bridge 12; the second phase-shift branch 14 includes a second secondary side upper switch tube Q3 and a second secondary side lower switch tube Q4 connected in series, and the connection between the second secondary side upper switch tube Q1 and the second secondary side lower switch tube Q2 serves as another midpoint of the phase-shift full bridge 12, which is respectively connected to the third coupling inductor L3 and the fourth coupling inductor L4; a capacitor is connected to the capacitor branch 15, and both ends of the capacitor are connected to the high-voltage bus 1 or the load 5.

[0030] Preferably, a phase-shift inductor L5 is further provided in the secondary phase-shift full bridge 9, and the phase-shift inductor L5 is connected in series with the third coupling inductor L3 and the fourth coupling inductor L4 to adjust the phase-shift angle of the secondary phase-shift full bridge. The phase-shift inductor L5 can be realized by using the leakage inductance of the first coupling inductor L1 and the second coupling inductor L2 or by connecting an additional inductor.

[0031] Example 2 Based on the three-port converter suitable for a fuel cell vehicle provided in the above embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a control method for a three-port converter suitable for a fuel cell vehicle, comprising the following steps: 1) The input side and output side of the primary-side staggered parallel Boost circuit 8 in the three-port converter 7 are connected to the fuel cell vehicle fuel cell 3 and the battery 4 respectively; the output side of the secondary-side phase-shifted full bridge 9 is connected to the high-voltage bus 1 or the load 5; 2) The voltage on the battery 4 and the voltage on the load 5 are collected, and based on the voltage collection results, the duty cycle of the primary-side interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8 and the phase shift angle of the secondary-side phase-shifted full bridge 9 are controlled.

[0032] Preferably, the above step 2) includes the following steps: 2.1) Collecting the voltage on the battery 3 and the voltage on the load 5; 2.2) According to the voltage acquisition result, the duty cycle of the primary-side staggered parallel Boost circuit 8 is designed so that the voltage of the battery 3 is maintained within a preset range; 2.3) The phase shift angle of the secondary phase-shifted full bridge 9 is controlled so that the voltage outputted from the secondary phase-shifted full bridge 9 to the load 5 meets the preset requirement.

[0033] Specifically, assuming that the switching period of the switch tube in the primary interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8 is T and the duty cycle is D, the conduction time of the first primary lower switch tube S2 and the second primary lower switch tube S4 is DT, and the conduction time of the first primary upper switch tube S1 and the second primary upper switch tube S3 is (1-D) T. By controlling the duty cycle D, the output voltage of the primary interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8, that is, the voltage of the battery 3, can be adjusted.

[0034] Assume that the voltages on both sides of the leakage inductance are and , then the voltage of load 5 can be and It is determined by the phase shift angle of the voltage waveform.

[0035] Primary voltage The voltage amplitude is determined by the output voltage of the primary interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8 and the transformer ratio, while the output voltage of the primary interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8 is determined by its input voltage and duty cycle. The voltage amplitude can be expressed as:

[0036] in, Primary voltage The voltage amplitude is, N is the transformer ratio, is the input voltage of the primary side interleaved parallel Boost circuit 8, is the duty cycle of the primary-side interleaved parallel Boost circuit.

[0037] Secondary voltage The voltage amplitude is equal to the output voltage of the phase-shifted full bridge:

[0038] in, is the output voltage of the phase-shifted full-bridge, that is, the voltage on the load of the three-port converter.

[0039] Example 3 like Figure 5a and Figure 5b As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a time domain waveform diagram of a three-port converter in an embodiment of the present invention. According to whether the duty cycle of the primary-side interleaved parallel Boost circuit in the three-port converter is greater than or less than 0.5, it can be divided into two categories: S 1- S 4 is the driving waveform of the primary switch tube. Q 1- Q 4 is the driving waveform of the secondary switch tube. The primary side adjusts the voltage on the battery by controlling the duty cycle, and the secondary side adjusts the output voltage on the load by controlling the phase shift angle.

[0040] like Figure 6 The control strategy of the three-port converter proposed by the present invention is shown in FIG. The control method requires two voltage sensors to respectively collect the voltage on the battery ( U CL ) and the voltage across the load ( U H ). By controlling the duty cycle of the primary side, the voltage on the battery is maintained within a reasonable range, and by controlling the phase shift angle, the output voltage is controlled.

[0041] The three-port converter proposed in the present invention avoids the disadvantages of large size and high cost of two independent DC-DC converters. The three ports of the converter are respectively connected to the fuel cell stack, the battery and the high-voltage bus (load), so that energy can flow between the three different ports, thereby decoupling and controlling the power distribution between the fuel cell and the battery. In addition, since the battery is no longer directly connected in parallel to the high-voltage bus, the bus voltage can also be controlled to a constant value, which is beneficial to the design of the motor.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, ordinary technicians in the relevant field should understand that the specific implementation methods of the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents. Any modification or equivalent replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
