[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery pack liquid cooling plate performance testing, and in particular to an intelligent testing and evaluation system for new energy battery heat dissipation equipment. Background Art
[0002] New energy electric vehicles are a type of new energy vehicles, which also include plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, extended-range electric vehicles, mild hybrid system vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles. New energy electric vehicles specifically refer to pure electric vehicles that use rechargeable batteries (such as lithium iron phosphate, ternary lithium, etc.) to provide power sources to drive the vehicle. The working principle of new energy electric vehicles is mainly that the battery provides current, which is transmitted to the motor through the power regulator, and then the power transmission system drives the vehicle. Its key components include drive motors, speed controllers, power batteries, and on-board chargers. There are various types of motors, such as DC brushed, brushless, permanent magnet, and electromagnetic, and the speed control is divided into stepped and stepless.
[0003] The battery cooling equipment of new energy electric vehicles usually refers to the battery pack liquid cooling plate. When evaluating the performance of the liquid cooling plate product, it is usually necessary to conduct corresponding performance tests to evaluate the performance status of the liquid cooling plate, obtain the performance status scores of multiple liquid cooling plates in a batch and perform the corresponding mean calculation, and use the calculation results as the performance evaluation results of the current batch of liquid cooling plates, thereby realizing the performance evaluation of the current batch of liquid cooling plates.
[0004] Performance testing generally includes pressure resistance test, vibration test, air tightness test, heat dissipation performance test, etc. The pressure resistance test is used to verify the pressure resistance and safety performance of the liquid cooling plate. The vibration test is used to evaluate the reliability of the liquid cooling plate in long-term use. The air tightness test is used to prevent liquid leakage from causing abnormal battery temperature, performance degradation or safety accidents. The heat dissipation performance test is used to test the heat dissipation performance of the liquid cooling plate using relevant sensors.
[0005] However, in the existing pressure test process, improper pressure control during the test often causes the liquid cooling plate to rupture prematurely, resulting in a waste of resources, and thus the pressure resistance performance of the liquid cooling plate cannot be accurately evaluated. In addition, during the vibration test, the detection and characterization methods are too single, resulting in the vibration test results being not accurate enough, and thus the final performance evaluation results are not accurate enough. The above problems need to be solved urgently, and for this purpose, an intelligent test and evaluation system for new energy battery cooling equipment is proposed. Summary of the invention

When it is less than the set threshold value Wth, the deformation characterization parameter-coolant injection rate database is searched according to the deformation characterization parameter value Wd to obtain the corresponding coolant injection rate value , and adjust the coolant injection rate in the pressurizing unit in real time according to the coolant injection rate value, so that the current coolant injection rate is the coolant injection rate value found, if it is greater than or equal to the set threshold value Wth, immediately read the internal real-time pressure Pnact of the current liquid cooling plate and stop pressurizing, and send the internal real-time pressure Pnact of the current liquid cooling plate to the pressure range determination unit; the internal pressure detection unit is used to detect the internal pressure of the liquid cooling plate in real time through the pressure sensor to obtain the internal real-time pressure of the liquid cooling plate; the pressure range determination unit is used to determine the pressure range value of the current liquid cooling plate according to the maximum design pressure Pnmax and the internal real-time pressure Pnact of the current liquid cooling plate when the deformation characterization parameter value Wd is greater than or equal to the set threshold value Wth.
[0068] More specifically, in the first deformation state detection unit, the specific processing process is as follows:
[0069] S11: Divide the liquid cooling plate into a plurality of regions along the length direction, denoted as Ai, where i represents the i-th region;
[0070] S12: In each area, two industrial cameras are used to take real-time photos directly above and on the side of the liquid cooling plate to obtain a local overhead image and a local side image of the liquid cooling plate, such as Figure 2 As shown;
[0071] S13: performing noise reduction processing on the overhead image and the side image of the local liquid cooling plate obtained in each area;
[0072] S14: using the trained liquid cooling plate detection model, performing target detection on the liquid cooling plate portion in the overhead image of the local liquid cooling plate and the side image of the local liquid cooling plate after noise reduction, and obtaining a first liquid cooling plate detection frame position in the corresponding image; the detection frame position includes the coordinates of the lower left corner point and the upper right corner point of the detection frame;
[0073] S15: In each region, according to the position of the first liquid cooling plate detection frame in the corresponding image, the length values of the short sides of the liquid cooling plate detection frames in the overhead image and the side image of the local liquid cooling plate of each region are calculated, and recorded as Wfi and Wsi, where f represents the local liquid cooling plate in the overhead image, and s represents the local liquid cooling plate in the side image;
[0074] S16: Traverse the length values Wfi and Wsi in the corresponding images of each area, determine the corresponding maximum length values Wfmax and Wsmax, calculate the difference between the maximum length values Wfmax and Wsmax and the initial length values Wf0 and Ws0 in the corresponding images when no pressure is applied, record them as length differences Wfd and Wsd, and take the larger value of the length differences Wfd and Wsd as the deformation characterization parameter value Wd.
[0075] More specifically, in step S14, the liquid cooling plate detection model is trained based on the RCNN target detection network.
[0076] It should be noted that in step S16, in the overhead images of the local liquid cooling plate corresponding to each area, the initial length value Wf0 of the short side of the liquid cooling plate detection frame when no pressurization is performed is the same, and in the side images of the local liquid cooling plate corresponding to each area, the initial length value Ws0 of the short side of the liquid cooling plate detection frame when no pressurization is performed is the same.

[0077] As more specific, the correspondence between the preset deformation characterization parameter value and the coolant injection rate value is stored in the deformation characterization parameter-coolant injection rate database, wherein the deformation characterization parameter value is negatively correlated with the coolant injection rate value. It can be understood that when the deformation characterization parameter value Wd is larger, that is, the deformation of the local area of the liquid cooling plate is also obvious, and the closer it is to the broken state, the coolant injection rate at this time will gradually decrease dynamically as the deformation increases. Through the dynamic adjustment method of the coolant injection rate according to the deformation characterization parameter in the present invention, improper pressure control during the test can be effectively avoided, resulting in premature rupture of the liquid cooling plate, causing waste of resources, and then the problem of being unable to accurately evaluate the pressure resistance performance of the liquid cooling plate.

[0115] Divide the temperature drop Tc by the preset time h to obtain the heat dissipation performance parameter value of the current liquid cooling plate, which is recorded as Tr.
[0116] In this embodiment, the comprehensive scoring module is used to obtain the corresponding score in the preset expert database according to the pressure range value, reliability characterization parameter value, airtight performance parameter value and heat dissipation performance parameter value of the current liquid cooling plate, and then calculate the performance status score of the current liquid cooling plate to realize the performance status evaluation of the current liquid cooling plate.
[0117] As more specific, the specific processing process of the comprehensive scoring module is as follows:
[0118] S71: according to the current pressure range value, reliability characterization parameter value, airtight performance parameter value and heat dissipation performance parameter value of the liquid cooling plate, a corresponding expert database is searched to obtain a pressure rating Fp, a reliability rating Frx, an airtight performance rating Fg and a heat dissipation performance rating Ft;
