Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of instrument display error correction, and in particular relates to an alarm error correction method for an aviation power integrated instrument controller. Background Art

[0002] The power integrated display instrument is a key component of electric aircraft, and the display accuracy of its controller directly affects the safe operation of the aircraft. The controller contains an insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT, which will still generate heat when the contact surface state and tightening degree are adjusted during use, causing the thermistor to produce temperature errors. For example, a set of thermistors can make the actual 100℃ displayed as 95℃-105℃, while multiple sets of thermistors in the IGBT will make the error even greater. This seriously affects the accuracy of the instrument display value, which in turn affects the pilot's flight and may even cause flight accidents.

[0003] When the temperature of the controller displayed by the power integrated display instrument cannot be displayed correctly, the alarm threshold will be uncertain and the pilot will not be able to assess the working status of the power system. As electric aircraft enter the mass production stage, this problem needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to provide an alarm error correction method for an aviation power integrated instrument controller, correct the error between the displayed temperature value and the actual value of the controller in the instrument, overcome the error problem of the display of the existing electric aircraft power integrated instrument, and improve the flight efficiency and safety of the pilot.

[0006] S1. Calculate the temperature of the controller through testing;

[0007] S2, fitting the temperature of the controller with a cubic polynomial to correct the temperature of the controller;

[0008] S3. The controller sets a display for the temperature warning of the IGBT, and sets a display when the temperature of the IGBT is too high and reaches the protection threshold.

[0009] Furthermore, it is characterized in that, in step S1, the relationship between the resistance value and temperature change of the NTC resistor built into the IGBT module is:

[0010] R T =R N exp[B(1 / T-1 / T N )] (1)

[0011] In formula (1), R TIndicates the resistance of the NTC thermistor at temperature T; T indicates the temperature of the controller; T N Indicates rated temperature; R N Indicates that at rated temperature T N The resistance value of the NTC thermistor at this time; B represents the material constant of the NTC thermistor;

[0012] Formula (1) is an empirical formula. The material constant B itself is also a function of temperature T, where T and T N It refers to K degree, that is, Kelvin temperature. Formula (2) is derived from formula (1):

[0013]

[0014] There are two main parameters of NTC thermistor: nominal resistance R 25 , they are at standard temperature 25℃T 25 =273.15+25℃=298.15K resistance and constant B 25100 , using these parameters, equations (3) and (4) can be calculated:

[0015]

[0016] NTC's B 25100 The constant can be determined by measuring the resistance at two different temperatures T1 and T2; knowing the corresponding resistances R1 and R2 the constant can be calculated as follows:

[0017]

[0018] U1 is a constant voltage power supply, and the resistance value of R1 is selected according to the limited power. R After the value is calculated, R T The value of is shown in formula (6).

[0019]

[0020] Further, in step S2, the temperature of the controller is fitted using a cubic polynomial, including the following steps:

[0021] Read the temperature parameter value from the CAN bus, convert the hexadecimal value into decimal, and substitute it into the formula

[0022] T 拟合 =aN 十进制 3 +bN 十进制 2 +cN 十进制 +d (7)

[0023] Get the temperature of the controller IGBT expressed in degrees Celsius, where T拟合 The corrected controller temperature displayed on the instrument, expressed in degrees Celsius, N 十进制 is the controller temperature parameter value read from the CAN bus, expressed in decimal, where a, b, c, and d are polynomial coefficients and constants.

[0024] Furthermore, in step S3, the controller displays the temperature warning of the IGBT in the following steps:

[0025] When the IGBT temperature reaches 87% of the protection value, the controller temperature bar corresponding to the power display instrument should flash yellow as a warning. The pilot should immediately reduce the throttle to reduce the output power of the controller.

[0026] Furthermore, in step S3, the controller displays the temperature of the IGBT when it reaches the protection threshold, including the following steps:

[0027] When the motor temperature reaches the protective shutdown temperature, the controller temperature bar corresponding to the power display instrument should flash red.

[0028] The present invention can achieve the following technical effects:

[0029] The invention has a simple principle and is easy to implement. It corrects the error between the displayed temperature value and the actual value, overcomes the error problem of the display of the existing electric aircraft power integrated instrument, and improves the flight efficiency and safety of the pilot.

[0030] The alarm error correction method of the aviation power integrated instrument controller provided by the present invention has the key core of correcting the display and alarm errors of the aviation power integrated instrument, thereby improving the efficiency and safety of the electric aircraft flight. Then the key core of correcting the display and alarm errors of the aviation power integrated instrument is to use the variability of the thermistor (NTC) of the IGBT module to accurately measure the temperature, and use a cubic polynomial to fit the temperature of the controller; the controller reasonably sets the display of the temperature warning of the IGBT; the controller displays and sets when the temperature of the IGBT is too high and reaches the protection threshold. Therefore, the display and alarm error correction of the aviation power integrated instrument can be realized, so that the display value of the power integrated instrument is basically consistent with the actual value.

[0037] refer to Figure 1-5 , the alarm error correction method of the aviation power integrated instrument controller specifically includes the following steps:

[0038] S1. Calculate the temperature of the controller through testing;

[0039] Furthermore, in step S1, the relationship between the resistance value and temperature change of the NTC resistor built into the IGBT module is:

[0040] R T =R N exp[B(1 / T-1 / T N )] (1)

[0042] Formula (1) is an empirical formula and is only valid at rated temperature T N Or rated resistance R N The accuracy is limited to a certain range because the material constant B itself is also a function of temperature T, where T and T N K refers to Kelvin temperature, K = 273.15 (absolute temperature) + Celsius. Formula (2) is derived from formula (1):

[0043]

[0044] There are two main parameters of NTC thermistor: nominal resistance R 25 , they are at standard temperature 25℃(T 25=273.15+25℃=298.15K) and its constant B 25100 , which somehow expresses the "temperature coefficient"; using these parameters, equations (3) and (4) can be calculated:

[0045]

[0046] NTC's B 25100 The constant can be determined by measuring the resistance at two different temperatures T1 and T2; knowing the corresponding resistances R1 and R2 the constant can be calculated as follows:

[0047]

[0048] Figure 2 It is a temperature measurement circuit, where U1 is a constant voltage power supply, and the resistance value of R1 is selected according to the limited power (the table requires no more than 20mW). R After the value is calculated, R T The value of is shown in formula (6).

[0049]

[0050] Further, in step S2, the temperature of the controller is fitted using a cubic polynomial, including the following steps:

[0051] The temperature-value curve of the controller is measured through temperature test, and the curve can be fitted by cubic polynomial.

[0052] Read the temperature parameter value of 0x4a from the CAN bus, convert the hexadecimal value into decimal, and substitute it into the formula

[0053] T 拟合 =aN 十进制 3 +bN 十进制 2 +cN 十进制 +d (7)

[0054] Get the temperature of the controller IGBT expressed in degrees Celsius, where T 拟合 The corrected controller temperature displayed on the instrument, expressed in degrees Celsius, N 十进制 is the controller temperature parameter value read from the CAN bus, expressed in decimal. a, b, c, d are polynomial coefficients, which are constants. They are different for each controller, and the number of effective digits needs to be 10-15 digits.

[0055] For example, for a certain controller, the calculation formula is known to be y = 0.000000000109026x3-0.000007129711980x2+0.163051991370739x-1,235.426309155500000. When the decimal temperature parameter value read is N 十进制 The temperature value displayed on the instrument can be calculated.

[0056] S3. The controller sets a display for a temperature warning of an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), and sets a display when the temperature of the IGBT is too high and reaches a protection threshold.

[0057] Furthermore, in step S3, the controller displays the temperature warning of the IGBT in the following steps:

[0058] When the IGBT temperature protection value reaches 87%, the 23rd bit (bit23) of 0x8f will jump from a value of 0 to a value of 1. At this time, the controller temperature bar corresponding to the power display instrument should flash yellow as a warning. The pilot should immediately reduce the throttle to reduce the output power of the controller.

[0059] Furthermore, in step S3, the controller displays the temperature of the IGBT when it reaches the protection threshold, including the following steps:

[0060] When the temperature reaches the protective shutdown level, bit 7 of 0x8f will jump from a value of 0 to a value of 1. At this time, the controller temperature bar corresponding to the power display instrument should flash red.
