Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to the field of fuel cell electric vehicle fuel cell system control technology, and specifically to a battery pack power determination method, device, vehicle and storage medium. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the fuel cell electric vehicle industry, the coordinated control of fuel cell system power and vehicle power is becoming increasingly important. Under actual vehicle conditions, users' power requirements for fuel cell electric vehicles are divided into constant power and peak power, corresponding to the two operating conditions of users driving at a constant speed and accelerating respectively. Under certain conditions, the greater the peak power that a fuel cell electric vehicle can provide, the better the vehicle's power performance. Therefore, the higher the peak power of the vehicle's fuel cell system, the better the vehicle's power performance. In general, the power that the fuel cell system can continuously and stably work for more than one hour is taken as the constant power that the fuel cell system can output, and the current peak power of the vehicle is set according to the environmental factors and speed of the vehicle. In actual operation, the fuel cell system does not exceed this power. However, this peak power is not accurate. When the fuel cell system is actually running, it can exceed this constant power for a short time to improve the vehicle's power performance.
[0003] In the related art, CN113844337A determines the maximum heat dissipation capacity of the fuel cell system according to the ambient temperature of the fuel cell system and the radiator inlet temperature, detects the output current of the current fuel cell, and calculates the current rated maximum power of the fuel cell according to the current maximum heat dissipation capacity and output current. The rated maximum power determined by this method is the maximum constant power of the battery system operation, which cannot fully release the capacity of the fuel cell system. CN114447379A collects the real-time temperature value of the coolant outlet of the fuel cell stack, the output current and output voltage of the stack, and collects the ambient temperature. According to the scheduling current, the target temperature of the coolant outlet, the temperature difference setting value and the initial number of fans are found. When the difference between the target temperature value of the coolant outlet and the real-time temperature value of the coolant outlet is less than the temperature difference setting value, the fan control strategy is started. The fan duty cycle is adjusted and the fan speed is controlled to balance the heat generation and heat dissipation and stabilize the coolant temperature. This method balances the heat generation and heat dissipation of the battery system by adjusting the fan control strategy of the radiator, but does not determine the peak power of the battery system. Therefore, how to accurately determine the peak power of the battery system is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0019] In another possible implementation, the peak power of the battery pack is determined based on the total heat dissipation and the total heat generation, including: when the total heat dissipation is greater than the total heat generation, determining the minimum power between the target power and the upper temperature limit power as the peak power of the battery pack; the upper temperature limit power is the maximum power of the battery pack limited by the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack; when the total heat dissipation is less than or equal to the total heat generation, reducing the target power according to a preset gradient until the total heat dissipation of the battery pack at the adjusted target power is greater than the total heat generation; the peak power of the battery pack is the adjusted target power.
[0020] According to the above technical means, by adjusting the target power, the total heat dissipation of the battery pack at the target power is greater than the total heat generation, ensuring that the battery pack does not exceed the thermal management limit at high power output. By continuously reducing the target power, the target power is continuously approaching the limit power of the battery pack.

[0050] In order to enable ordinary persons in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0051] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. On the contrary, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the attached claims.
[0052] With the rapid development of the fuel cell electric vehicle industry, the coordinated control of fuel cell system power and vehicle power is becoming increasingly important. Under actual vehicle conditions, users' power requirements for fuel cell electric vehicles are divided into constant power and peak power, corresponding to the two operating conditions of users driving at a constant speed and accelerating. Under certain conditions, the greater the peak power that a fuel cell electric vehicle can provide, the better the power performance of the vehicle. Therefore, the power generation demand of the vehicle decomposed into the fuel cell system is also divided into constant power and peak power. The higher the peak power of the vehicle's fuel cell system, the better the vehicle's power performance.
[0053] In general, the power of the fuel cell system that can work stably for more than one hour is taken as the constant power that the fuel cell system can output, and its current limit value is set according to the environmental factors and vehicle speed of the vehicle. In actual operation, the fuel cell system does not exceed this power. However, this peak power is not accurate. When the fuel cell system is actually running, it can exceed this constant power for a short time to improve the vehicle's power performance. Based on the actual working conditions of the user, referring to the definition of peak power of the power battery, the power of the fuel cell system that can work stably for 2s-60s is taken as the peak power of the fuel cell.
[0054] In summary, the existing fuel cell peak power calculation method has the following problems: the power limit logic of the fuel cell cannot meet the user's acceleration needs, resulting in inconsistent acceleration experience for each user. The peak power control of the fuel cell cannot fully release the capacity of the fuel cell, and the power of the vehicle is not fully released. Therefore, how to accurately determine the peak power of the battery system is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.
[0055] In response to the above problems, this application proposes a method for determining battery pack power, in which the peak power of the battery pack is determined by the total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack. This allows the capacity of the battery pack to be fully released at peak power, thereby increasing the peak power of the battery pack. This allows the capacity of the battery pack to be released for a short period of time based on the peak power, thereby increasing the output power of the battery pack and improving the acceleration performance and climbing ability of the vehicle without affecting the life and safety of the battery pack.
[0056] For ease of understanding, the battery pack power determination method provided in the present application is specifically introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0057] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a battery pack heat dissipation system according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the battery pack cooling system 100 includes: a battery control system 11, a radiator 12, a cooling fan 13, a high-pressure water pump 14, an electronic three-way valve 15, a battery pack 16, a first temperature sensor 17, a second temperature sensor 18, and a third temperature sensor 19.
[0058] The battery pack heat dissipation system 100 includes a first heat dissipation circulation loop and a second heat dissipation circulation loop. The first heat dissipation circulation loop includes an electronic three-way valve 15 and a battery pack 16. The second heat dissipation circulation loop includes an electronic three-way valve 15, a battery pack 16, a radiator 12 and a high-pressure water pump 14. The first end of the electronic three-way valve 15 is connected to the first end of the battery pack 16, the second end of the battery pack 16 is respectively connected to the second end of the electronic three-way valve 15 and the input end of the radiator 12, the output end of the radiator 12 is connected to the input end of the high-pressure water pump 14, and the output end of the high-pressure water pump 14 is connected to the third end of the electronic three-way valve 15.
[0059] In some embodiments, the coolant passage path from the electronic three-way valve 15 to the second temperature sensor 18 to the battery pack 16 to the first temperature sensor 17 and directly back to the electronic three-way valve 15 is defined as a small heat dissipation cycle, i.e., a first heat dissipation cycle loop. The coolant passage path from the electronic three-way valve 15 to the second temperature sensor 18 to the battery pack 16 to the first temperature sensor 17 to the radiator 12 to the third temperature sensor 19 to the high-pressure water pump 14 and then back to the electronic three-way valve 15 is defined as a large heat dissipation cycle, i.e., a second heat dissipation cycle loop. When determining the peak power of the battery pack, the battery control system 11 can use a cyclic iteration algorithm to compare the heat generated by the battery pack with the heat carrying capacity of the heat dissipation cycle in each iterative calculation, continuously approaching the sustainable operating power of the battery pack to obtain the peak power of the battery pack.
[0060] In some embodiments, during the process of power generation and heat dissipation of the battery pack 16, it is necessary to control the inlet temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack 16 and the outlet temperature of the coolant flowing out of the battery pack 16. The inlet temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack 16 is acquired by the second temperature sensor 18. The outlet temperature of the coolant flowing out of the battery pack 16 is acquired by the first temperature sensor 19.
[0061] When the battery control system 11 controls the battery pack 16 to generate electricity, the coolant enters the battery pack 16 through the electronic three-way valve 15. The battery control system 11 can adjust the inlet temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack 16 by adjusting the opening of the electronic three-way valve 15, so that the temperature value fed back by the second temperature sensor 18 is within the range specified by the battery pack 16.
[0062] After the coolant enters the battery pack 16, it absorbs the heat released by the battery pack 16 when generating electricity, the coolant temperature rises, and the battery pack 16 cools down. The battery control system 11 adjusts the speed of the high-pressure water pump 14 to adjust the flow rate of the coolant entering the battery pack 16 so that the temperature value fed back by the first temperature sensor 17 is within the range specified by the battery pack 16.
[0063] The coolant with increased temperature enters the radiator 12 and exchanges heat with the air under the action of the cooling fan 13, and the temperature drops. The battery control system 11 adjusts the speed of the cooling fan 13 so that the temperature value fed back by the third temperature sensor 19 is within a suitable range. Thus, the battery pack cooling system 100 works in a cycle and continuously cools the battery pack 16.
[0064] It should be noted that the system architecture and application scenarios described in the embodiments of the present application are intended to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and do not constitute a limitation on the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of the system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to similar technical problems.
[0065] In some embodiments, the execution subject of the battery pack power determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application may be a battery control system, a battery thermal management system, a vehicle thermal management system, or a vehicle controller, etc. The embodiment of the present application does not limit this.
[0066] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a method for determining battery pack power according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the battery pack power determination method includes the following steps:
[0067] S201 , determining the total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack at a target power.
[0068] The target power is greater than the rated power of the battery pack, and the difference between the target power and the rated power is greater than a preset threshold. The total heat dissipation is the heat dissipated by the first heat dissipation loop and the second heat dissipation loop in the battery heat dissipation system when the battery pack operates at the target power. The total heat generation is the heat generated by the battery pack when the battery pack operates at the target power.
[0069] Exemplarily, the target power may be assigned based on the rated power of the battery pack. For example, the target power is equal to the rated power of the battery pack multiplied by the magnification factor. The total amount of heat dissipated by the battery pack at the target power may also be determined based on the temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack and the temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator in the battery cooling system. The total amount of heat generated by the battery pack at the target power may also be determined based on the heat generated by the battery at the target power.
[0070] Among them, the amplification coefficient is a positive number greater than 1, and relevant technical personnel can set it according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.
[0071] It should be understood that when the target power is assigned for the first time, the target power is generally set much larger than the rated power of the battery pack. The target power is reduced in a gradient according to the total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack at the target power. The target power is made to continuously approach the limit power at which the battery pack can operate normally in a short period of time, so as to determine the peak power of the battery pack.
[0072] S202: Determine the peak power of the battery pack based on the total heat dissipation and the total heat generation.
[0073] Exemplarily, after determining the total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack at the target power, the total heat dissipation can be compared with the total heat generation. Thus, when the total heat dissipation is greater than the total heat generation, it indicates that the target power is close to the maximum power that the battery pack can operate for a short time, and the target power is determined to be the peak power of the battery pack. When the total heat dissipation is less than or equal to the total heat generation, it indicates that the battery pack cannot support short-term operation at the target power, and the target power can be reduced in sequence according to the gradient. The total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack at the reduced target power are determined again to determine the peak power of the battery pack.
[0074] It should be understood that the peak power of the battery pack is determined by the total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack. The peak power is close to the maximum power that the battery pack can operate for a short time. At the peak power, the capacity of the battery pack can be fully released, which increases the peak power of the battery pack. Therefore, the capacity of the battery pack can be released for a short time based on the peak power, and the output power of the battery pack can be increased without affecting the life and safety of the battery pack, thereby improving the acceleration performance and climbing ability of the vehicle.
[0075] In some embodiments, the total amount of heat dissipated by the battery at the target power can be determined by determining the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation loop and the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation loop in the battery heat dissipation system. Therefore, the above steps of determining the total amount of heat dissipated by the battery pack at the target power can be specifically implemented as the following steps S2011-S2012:
[0076] S2011, determining the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation circulation loop, the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation circulation loop, and the heat redundancy parameter of the battery pack.
[0077] The heat redundancy parameters include: heat redundancy value and redundancy times.
[0078] The thermal margin value refers to the maximum additional heat that the battery pack can withstand without exceeding safety and performance limits. It is usually determined based on the thermal stability of the battery pack materials and the thermal capacity of the battery pack design. The margin number refers to the number of thermal cycles that the battery pack can undergo before reaching a critical thermal state.
[0079] For example, the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation loop and the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation loop can be determined respectively when the battery pack is at the target power according to the temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack and the temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator. The heat redundancy value and the number of redundancy times of the battery pack can be determined based on the material of the battery pack and the design of the single cells in the battery pack.
[0080] S2012: Determine the total amount of heat dissipation based on the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation cycle, the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation cycle, and the heat redundancy parameter of the battery pack.
[0081] Exemplarily, the total heat dissipation of the battery pack at the target power may be determined according to the following expression (1):
[0082] Q 散 =(Q1+Q2-Q offset ) / n (1)
[0083] Among them, Q 散 Indicates the total amount of heat dissipated by the battery pack at the target power. Q1 indicates the amount of heat dissipated by the first heat dissipation cycle. Q2 indicates the amount of heat dissipated by the second heat dissipation cycle. Q offset Indicates the thermal redundancy value of the battery pack. n indicates the number of redundancy times of the battery pack.
[0084] It should be understood that by determining the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation loop and the second heat dissipation loop, as well as the thermal redundancy parameter of the battery pack, the total heat dissipation of the battery pack can be more accurately calculated. Therefore, the peak power of the battery pack can be accurately determined based on the total heat dissipation. In addition, by accurately determining the total heat dissipation, the battery pack can be kept operating within a suitable temperature range, thereby improving the performance of the battery pack and extending its service life.
[0085] In other embodiments, the first theoretical temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop can be determined based on the target power. Thus, the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation circulation loop is determined based on the first theoretical temperature and the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop. Therefore, the above steps of determining the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation circulation loop can be specifically implemented as the following steps S20111-S20112:
[0086] S20111. Based on the target power, determine a first theoretical temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop.
[0087] For example, after assigning a value to the target power, the first theoretical temperature corresponding to the target power can be queried based on the target power and the corresponding relationship between the power of the battery pack and the theoretical temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop. When the coolant enters the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop at this temperature, the battery pack can operate normally at the target power, that is, the total heat dissipation of the battery pack is greater than the total heat generation.
[0088] The corresponding relationship between the power of the battery pack and the theoretical temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop can be obtained by performing a large number of experimental calibrations on the battery pack.
[0089] S20112. Determine the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation circulation loop based on the specific heat capacity and density of the coolant, the pipe volume of the first heat dissipation circulation loop, the first theoretical temperature, and the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop.
[0090] Exemplarily, the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation circulation loop may be determined based on the following expression (2):
[0091] Q1=C*V1*ρ*(T tar2 -T act2 ) (2)
[0092] Wherein, Q1 represents the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation circulation loop. C represents the specific heat capacity of the coolant. V1 represents the pipe volume of the first heat dissipation circulation loop. ρ represents the density of the coolant. T tar2 Indicates the first theoretical temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop. T act2 Indicates the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop. The actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop can be measured by a temperature sensor at the coolant inlet of the battery pack.
[0093] It should be understood that by accurately calculating the theoretical temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack through the first heat dissipation circulation loop, the heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation circulation loop can be determined more accurately, thereby improving the accuracy of the total heat dissipation of the battery pack.
[0094] In some other embodiments, the second theoretical temperature at which the coolant flows out of the radiator can be determined based on the first theoretical temperature. Thus, the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation circulation loop can be determined based on the second theoretical temperature and the actual temperature at which the coolant flows out of the radiator. Therefore, the above steps for determining the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation circulation loop can be specifically implemented as the following steps S2011a-S2011b:
[0095] S2011a. Based on the first theoretical temperature, determine a second theoretical temperature at which the coolant flows out of the radiator.
[0096] Exemplarily, the second theoretical temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator can be determined based on the following expression (3):
[0097] T tar1 =T tar2 -T offset (3)
[0098] Among them, T tar1 Indicates the second theoretical temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator. tar2 Indicates the first theoretical temperature. T offset Indicates the safety margin of coolant in the battery pack cooling system.
[0099] When the coolant flows out of the radiator at the second theoretical temperature, the battery pack can operate normally at the target power, that is, the total heat dissipation of the battery pack is greater than the total heat generation.
[0100] S2011b. Determine the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation circulation loop based on the specific heat capacity and density of the coolant, the pipe volume of the second heat dissipation circulation loop, the second theoretical temperature, and the actual temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator.
[0101] Exemplarily, the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation circulation loop may be determined based on the following expression (4):
[0102] Q2=C*V2*ρ*(T tar1 -T act1 ) (4)
[0103] Wherein, Q2 represents the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation circulation loop. C represents the specific heat capacity of the coolant. V2 represents the pipe volume of the second heat dissipation circulation loop. ρ represents the density of the coolant. T tar1 Indicates the second theoretical temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator. act1 Indicates the actual temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator. The actual temperature of the coolant flowing out of the radiator can be measured by the temperature sensor at the coolant outlet of the radiator.
[0104] It should be understood that by accurately calculating the heat dissipation of the second heat dissipation cycle, the accuracy of the total heat dissipation of the battery pack is improved. In addition, the temperature of the battery pack can be better controlled based on the heat dissipation, thereby optimizing the thermal management of the battery system.
[0105] In some other embodiments, the total amount of heat generated by the battery pack at the target power can also be determined by determining the heat generated by the battery pack at the target power. Therefore, the above steps of determining the total amount of heat generated by the battery pack at the target power can be specifically implemented as the following steps S201a-S201b:
[0106] S201a, determining the heat generation power of the battery pack at the target power.
[0107] Among them, heat generation power indicates how fast the battery pack converts electrical energy into heat energy.
[0108] Exemplarily, the operating voltage of the battery pack at the target power may be acquired, and the heat generation power of the battery pack at the target power may be determined based on the corresponding relationship between the operating voltage and the heat generation power.
[0109] S201b. Determine the total amount of heat generated based on the heat generation power and the working time of the battery pack.
[0110] The operating time of the battery pack refers to the continuous operating time of the battery pack at peak power.
[0111] For example, the heat generation power of the battery pack at the target power can be multiplied by the working time of the battery pack to obtain the total heat generation of the battery pack during the working time. The working time of the battery pack is determined by relevant technicians based on the actual needs of the battery pack and the vehicle. Generally, the working time of the battery pack is 2-30s, not exceeding one minute, and this embodiment of the application does not limit this.
[0112] It should be understood that the total amount of heat generated by the battery pack can be accurately determined by the heat generated by the battery pack at the target power, so as to accurately determine the peak power that the battery pack can achieve based on the total amount of heat generated by the battery pack, thereby improving the accuracy of the peak power.
[0113] In some other embodiments, the operating voltage of the battery pack at the target power may also be obtained. Thus, the heat generation power of the battery pack at the target power is determined based on the operating voltage of the battery pack at the target power. Therefore, the above steps for determining the heat generation power of the battery pack at the target power may be specifically implemented as the following steps S201a1-S201a2:
[0114] S201a1. Obtain the operating voltage of the battery pack at the target power.
[0115] Exemplarily, the operating voltage of the battery pack at the target power can be obtained based on the corresponding relationship between the power of the battery pack and the operating voltage of the battery pack. The corresponding relationship between the power of the battery pack and the operating voltage of the battery pack can be obtained by performing a large number of experimental calibrations on the battery pack.
[0116] S201a2. Determine the heat generation power based on the target power and the operating voltage.
[0117] Exemplarily, the heat generation power can be determined based on the following expression (5):
[0118] P 产热 =P tar *(1.24-U tar ) / Utar (5)
[0119] Among them, P 产热 Indicates the heat generation power of the battery pack at the target power. tar Indicates the target power. tar Indicates the operating voltage of the battery pack at the target power.
[0120] It should be understood that the heat generation power of the battery pack can be accurately determined by the operating voltage of the battery pack, thereby improving the accuracy of the total heat generation of the battery pack.
[0121] In some other embodiments, when the total heat dissipation of the battery pack is greater than the total heat generation, the minimum power between the target power and the upper temperature limit power can be determined as the peak power of the battery pack. When the total heat dissipation of the battery pack is less than or equal to the total heat generation, the target power can be reduced in a gradient until the total heat dissipation of the battery pack under the adjusted target power is greater than the total heat generation. Figure 3 As shown, the above steps determine the peak power of the battery pack based on the total heat dissipation and the total heat generation, which can be specifically implemented as the following steps S2021-S2022:
[0122] S2021. When the total heat dissipation is greater than the total heat generation, determine the minimum power between the target power and the upper temperature limit power as the peak power of the battery pack.
[0123] The upper temperature limit power is the maximum power of the battery pack limited by the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack.
[0124] Exemplarily, when the total amount of heat dissipation is greater than the total amount of heat generation, it indicates that the battery pack can operate normally at the target power for a certain period of time. Therefore, the target power can be used as the peak power of the battery pack. However, considering the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack in the battery pack heat dissipation system, there are certain restrictions on the maximum power of the battery pack. The higher the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack, the lower the maximum power of the battery pack. There is an inverse proportional relationship between the actual temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack and the maximum power of the battery pack. Therefore, the minimum power between the target power and the upper temperature limit power can be determined as the peak power of the battery pack.
[0125] The temperature upper limit power can be obtained based on the relationship between the temperature of the coolant entering the battery pack and the upper limit power of the battery pack.
[0126] S2022: When the total heat dissipation is less than or equal to the total heat generation, reduce the target power according to a preset gradient until the total heat dissipation of the battery pack at the adjusted target power is greater than the total heat generation.
[0127] Among them, the peak power of the battery pack is the adjusted target power.
[0128] Exemplarily, when the total heat dissipation is less than or equal to the total heat generation, it means that the battery pack cannot operate normally at the target power. The target power exceeds the peak power of the battery pack. Therefore, the target power can be lowered in sequence according to the preset gradient. And the total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack at each target power reduction are determined until the total heat dissipation at the adjusted target power is greater than the total heat generation. Then it can be determined that the current adjusted target power is the peak power of the battery pack.
[0129] It should be understood that by adjusting the target power, the total heat dissipation of the battery pack at the target power is greater than the total heat generation, ensuring that the battery pack does not exceed the thermal management limit at high power output. By continuously reducing the target power, the target power is continuously approaching the limit power of the battery pack. The peak power finally determined can fully release the capacity of the battery pack, improving the accuracy of the peak power.
[0130] Figure 4 is a flow chart showing another method for determining battery pack power according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 4 As shown, the process includes the following steps:
[0131] S401 . Assign a value to the output peak power, Ptar=Ptar1, and the initial value of Ptar1=Pw.
[0132] S402, searching for the corresponding target inlet water temperature Ttar2 of the fuel cell stack according to Ptar, and the target water temperature Ttar1 of the radiator outlet = Ttar2 - Toffset.
[0133] S403, calculating the large circulation heat capacity according to Ttar1 and the current actual radiator outlet temperature Tact1, the coolant specific heat capacity C, the density ρ and the large circulation pipeline volume Vlarge.
[0134] S404, calculating the small cycle heat capacity according to Ttar2 and the actual temperature Tact2 of the current stack inlet, the coolant specific heat capacity C, the density ρ and the volume Vsmall of the small cycle pipeline.
[0135] S405. Search for the corresponding Utar according to Ptar, and then calculate the stack heating rate according to the stack attenuation compensation amount η.
[0136] S406. Calculate the total heat of the fuel cell stack according to the target peak power duration requirement t1.
[0137] S407, determine whether the total heat of the battery stack is less than the cycle heat capacity.
[0138] S408. When the total heat of the stack is not less than the cycle heat capacity, output Ptar1=Ptar-ΔP and execute step S401.
[0139] S409. When the total heat of the battery stack is less than the cycle heat capacity, determine the peak power executed by the final output system.
[0140] According to the above technical means, the peak power of the battery pack is determined by the total heat dissipation and total heat generation of the battery pack. At the peak power, the capacity of the battery pack can be fully released, thereby increasing the peak power of the battery pack. Therefore, the capacity of the battery pack can be released for a short time based on the peak power, and the output power of the battery pack can be increased without affecting the life and safety of the battery pack, thereby improving the acceleration performance and climbing ability of the vehicle.
