Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of lithium ion battery fire extinguishing agents, and in particular to a method for quantitatively evaluating the effect of a lithium ion battery fire extinguishing agent. BACKGROUND

[0002] China is the world's largest producer and consumer of lithium batteries. The mass production and application of lithium batteries provide strong foundation and strategic support for China's modernization. However, lithium batteries are prone to thermal runaway under conditions such as overcharging, overheating and mechanical damage, which can lead to fire, explosion and the generation of large amounts of toxic smoke, posing a great potential risk to public safety. Although some progress has been made in the intrinsic safety design of batteries, it is still difficult to avoid the occurrence of thermal runaway. Therefore, developing effective lithium ion battery fire extinguishing methods is one of the important measures to reduce the harm of lithium battery thermal runaway and ensure public safety.

[0003] Existing lithium battery fire extinguishing methods focus on the development of fire extinguishing agents. Typically, under the same experimental conditions (such as battery size, thermal runaway triggering conditions, etc.), fire extinguishing agents are sprayed during the flaming stage after lithium battery thermal runaway. By evaluating the fire extinguishing and cooling effects of different fire extinguishing agents, the best fire extinguishing agent is selected, and further research is conducted on the inhibitory effect of the best fire extinguishing agent during battery module thermal runaway.

[0004] However, the existing evaluation method of the effect of lithium ion battery fire extinguishing agents has the following shortcomings:

[0005] 1. The existing evaluation method is mostly qualitative, lacking quantitative means, making it difficult to determine the relative advantages and disadvantages of each fire extinguishing agent. For example, perfluorohexanone has a significant cooling effect, but its decomposition products such as CO, CO2 and HF can increase the toxicity of the system, thereby posing potential risks. Liquid nitrogen has a fast initial cooling speed, but its low-temperature maintenance effect is poor. Since different fire extinguishing agents have their own advantages and disadvantages, simple qualitative analysis cannot accurately compare their comprehensive effects.

[0006] 2. Single evaluation dimension. The existing evaluation method focuses on isolated evaluation of fire extinguishing and cooling, and fails to cover the effect of fire extinguishing agents on inhibiting or releasing toxic gases. In addition, the existing evaluation system lacks comprehensive consideration of the relationship between each evaluation dimension, making it impossible to comprehensively evaluate the comprehensive performance of fire extinguishing agents.

[0007] 3. Existing evaluation methods do not fully consider the temperature correction when spraying fire extinguishing agents. Due to factors such as the uneven distribution of active materials inside lithium-ion batteries, the temperature of their thermal runaway is uncontrollable. For experiments using temperature-sensing automatic fire extinguishing devices to spray fire extinguishing agents, the impact of temperature differences at the injection point on the experimental results can be basically ignored. However, for experiments that require spraying fire extinguishing agents at specific temperature points or judging the injection time based on the rate of temperature change, it is usually necessary to manually monitor the temperature and manually open the valve, which requires a certain reaction time. The temperature of lithium-ion batteries changes rapidly during thermal runaway, which will cause the temperature of the injection point to deviate from the set injection temperature, thereby affecting the accuracy of the results. Therefore, temperature correction during injection needs to be considered in the evaluation method. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a quantitative evaluation method for the effect of lithium-ion battery cell fire extinguishing agents. This method comprehensively evaluates the fire extinguishing effect, cooling effect and smoke toxicity inhibition effect of the fire extinguishing agent from three dimensions, overcoming the defect of the existing method that the overall performance of the fire extinguishing agent cannot be fully reflected under a single evaluation dimension; at the same time, by introducing the weight of each indicator, the problem of independent evaluation and lack of correlation of each dimension in the traditional method is solved; in addition, by correcting the temperature when the fire extinguishing agent is sprayed, the objectivity and credibility of the evaluation results are enhanced, ensuring that the evaluation results under different experimental conditions have higher consistency and comparability.

The concentration change of the gas generated in the experiment can be detected continuously at a fixed point or collected using a smoke exhaust pipe, and then analyzed using a smoke analyzer, a gas chromatograph, or a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. In addition, the entire experimental process is recorded in real time by a video camera.

[0188]

[0189] The experiment adopts a heating method to induce thermal runaway of the lithium ion cell. Two temperature monitoring points are set in the experiment: the first temperature monitoring point TC1 is located at the midpoint of the opposite surface of the lithium ion cell close to the heating device; the second temperature monitoring point TC2 is located at the midpoint between the safety valve and the positive electrode on the upper surface of the cell. Whether the battery has thermal runaway is judged according to the voltage change of the lithium ion cell and the temperature change of TC1, and the heating is stopped after the thermal runaway of the battery. The time point of spraying the fire extinguishing agent is set as TC2≥500℃. During the experiment, the changes of the temperature and pressure of the lithium ion cell with time are recorded by a daily data acquisition instrument. At the same time, a camera is placed outside the laboratory to record the whole experiment process. In addition, a portable smoke analyzer is used to monitor the concentration changes of CO, SO2, NO2, O2 and CO2 in real time, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4

[0190] S2, calculate the value of each evaluation index under each type of evaluation index parameter, and normalize;

[0191] Calculate the fire extinguishing time index e1:

[0194] Calculate the rekindling condition index e2:

[0195]

[0196] Take 1 if the lithium ion cell does not rekindle within 30 minutes after the open fire is extinguished, otherwise take 0.

[0197] Calculate the cooling rate index c1:

[0198]

[0199] In the formula, c1 is the cooling rate index, which refers to the average cooling rate during the spraying of the fire extinguishing agent; T end is the temperature when the spraying of the fire extinguishing agent is stopped; T start is the temperature when the spraying of the fire extinguishing agent is started; t spary is the time of spraying the fire extinguishing agent;

[0200] ​The temperature rise rate index c2 is calculated:

[0202] In the formula, the temperature rise rate index c2 is the average temperature rise rate of the temperature rise to the peak value after stopping the injection of the fire extinguishing agent, T re,peak is the peak value of the temperature rise after stopping the injection of the fire extinguishing agent; Δt re,peak-end is the time interval from stopping the injection of the fire extinguishing agent to the temperature rise to the peak value;

[0203] The low-temperature maintenance time index c3 is calculated:

[0204] c3 = t 150℃ -t end

[0205] In the formula, t 150℃ is set as the time when the temperature of the monitoring point exceeds the set temperature for the first time after the release of the fire extinguishing agent, t end is the time when the injection of the fire extinguishing agent is stopped;

[0206] The toxicity index m of the asphyxiating gas reaching the peak value after stopping the injection of the fire extinguishing agent is calculated as follows: FED(re,peak)

[0207]

[0208] Z A = [CO2] re,peak × 0.05

[0209] In the formula, [CO] re,peak , [CO2] re,peak are the highest concentrations of CO and CO2 respectively after stopping the injection of the fire extinguishing agent, μL / L; is the average volume concentration of O2; is the weighting factor of CO2 when stimulating respiration; LC 50,CO is the median lethal concentration of CO within a certain exposure time; Z A is the acid poisoning factor;

[0210] The toxicity index m of the stimulating gas reaching the peak value after stopping the injection of the fire extinguishing agent is calculated as follows: FEC(re,peak)

[0211]

[0212] In the formula, and are the concentrations of the corresponding gases; and are the critical concentrations of the corresponding gases that are expected to cause the loss of ability of personnel.​​ 150 μL / L, 250 μL / L.

[0213] Among the above, the data values directly obtained and the values of each evaluation index under each type of evaluation index parameter calculated are shown in Table 2:

[0215]

[0216]

[0217] S3, the weight of each evaluation index under each type of evaluation index parameter is obtained, and the weight data shown in Table 3 is obtained:

[0218] Table 3

[0219]

[0220] Since the lithium ion cell does not exist after the above fire extinguishing agent is sprayed. Therefore, the weight ω of the rekindling condition index e2 is 0.

[0222] S5, inputting the normalized evaluation index value and the corresponding evaluation index weight into the lithium ion cell fire extinguishing agent effect evaluation model to obtain the scores of different fire extinguishing agents on the effect of lithium ion cells. Calculation shows that the scores of water, liquid nitrogen, and liquid nitrogen and perfluorohexone are 99.47, 25.84, and 61.55, respectively.

[0223] S6, arranging the order of different fire extinguishing agents according to the scores of different fire extinguishing agents on the effect of lithium ion cells. Specifically, water is 99.47 points, liquid nitrogen and perfluorohexone are 61.55 points, and liquid nitrogen is 25.84. This shows that under the experimental conditions, water has the best fire extinguishing effect on lithium ion batteries, followed by liquid nitrogen and perfluorohexone, and liquid nitrogen has the worst effect. It is worth noting that the score of liquid nitrogen and perfluorohexone is higher than that of liquid nitrogen alone, which shows that the addition of perfluorohexone enhances the fire extinguishing performance of liquid nitrogen to some extent.

[0246] The sequencing shows that, under the experimental conditions, if only the extinguishing effect and the cooling effect are considered, the effect of water is the best, followed by the compound extinguishing agent with HFP and 2-BTP at a mass ratio of 1:1, and the compound extinguishing agent with HFP and 2-BTP at a mass ratio of 9:1 is the worst. In addition, the effect of the compound extinguishing agent with HFP and 2-BTP at a mass ratio of 1:1 is better than that of HFP or 2-BTP alone.
