Description

Technical Field

[0002] Special vehicles now have problems with starting difficulties and long starting preparation time in high-altitude and cold environments. Diesel engines may be difficult to start under low temperature conditions. If effective forced starting measures are not taken, it is likely to further aggravate the cold wear phenomenon in the diesel cylinder, increase the battery discharge intensity, and shorten its service life. If the starter motor is overloaded under low temperature conditions, the failure rate of the starter motor will be greatly increased; if a new lithium battery is used to replace the original lead-acid battery of the vehicle in situ, and cooperate with the new generator heating system, it can meet the needs of one-button starting of special vehicles in extremely cold environments in plateau areas, and improve the combat readiness and duty capabilities of special vehicles. However, due to the reliance on new lithium batteries, whether the new lithium battery is charged and maintained in time has become a key factor affecting the performance of the new lithium battery. If the energy replenishment and maintenance of the lithium battery cannot be effectively achieved, the problem of vehicle starting difficulties in high-altitude and cold environments cannot be solved.
