[0057] Lithium-ion batteries themselves have potential safety hazards that cannot be ignored. One of the characteristics of large-scale energy storage power stations is that there are many batteries and they are arranged relatively densely. The number of internal single batteries can reach tens of thousands. The concentrated distribution of batteries in the energy storage compartment will increase the safety risks of batteries. Lithium-ion batteries may suffer from thermal runaway due to mechanical abuse, thermal abuse, electrical abuse, etc., which may cause a chain reaction in the surrounding batteries, resulting in thermal runaway of the energy storage power station, or even explosion. Once a thermal runaway fire or explosion occurs in a lithium-ion battery energy storage power station, the consequences will be disastrous.

[0058] The current monitoring and early warning systems of energy storage power stations are insufficient in early warning capabilities. The BMS battery monitoring system, EMS energy management system, fire protection system, temperature control system, and electronic control system of energy storage power stations are mainly used for emergency response in the middle and late stages of thermal runaway. The early warning measures are not yet perfect, and most of them are thermal runaway fire alarms. At this time, the battery system is already in a high-risk state. Even if an alarm signal is issued, it cannot completely guarantee the avoidance of fire, that is, the effect of early warning cannot be achieved. The core of solving the safety risk problem of energy storage power stations is to conduct early fault detection, that is, to detect fault signals in a timely manner in the early stage of the fault and issue early warning information to avoid the fault from further developing into thermal runaway. Fire hazards can be eliminated through early warning.

[0059] There are many technical means to detect the early internal short circuit fault of lithium battery, which are based on models, statistical data, artificial intelligence, fusion method, etc. The present invention belongs to the lithium battery internal short circuit fault detection method based on fusion method.

[0060] When lithium batteries are fast charged at low temperatures, lithium is easily deposited at the negative electrode. Multiple fast charges will cause lithium to accumulate in places where impurities are present at the negative electrode and pass through the SEI membrane to form lithium dendrites. When the lithium dendrites grow to a certain extent, they will break through the diaphragm and cause an internal short circuit. According to this electrochemical principle, the early stage of thermal runaway of batteries is often accompanied by changes in multiple state parameters such as voltage, internal resistance, temperature, characteristic gas, and characteristic sound. Using these characteristic parameters as fault signals for early safety warning of batteries is an effective technical means to improve the safety of energy storage systems.

[0061] Therefore, how to accurately assess the internal short circuit risk becomes an issue that needs to be resolved.

[0062] In response to the above-mentioned defects, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for assessing the risk of internal short circuit in batteries of an energy storage power station. First, real-time battery data is collected through a battery management system, a collection gateway or an EMS server. Then, based on the battery internal short circuit model, when the real-time battery data is judged to be abnormal, the characteristic parameter evolution rate is estimated, and the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary and the characteristic parameter boundary are determined. Finally, based on the real-time distance between the characteristic parameter evolution rate and its boundary, and the real-time distance between the real-time battery data and the characteristic parameter boundary, the internal short circuit risk of the battery is quantitatively assessed.

[0063] The present application scheme uses an internal short-circuit model to estimate the evolution rate of characteristic parameters, determine boundaries, and calculate real-time distances, so as to accurately assess the risk of internal short circuits and provide early warning for the safety of batteries in energy storage power stations. It has strong ease of use and practicality.

[0064] The specific process implemented by this application is introduced below through specific embodiments.

[0065] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the steps of the short circuit risk assessment method for the energy storage power station battery provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0066] S101, collecting real-time battery data based on a battery management system, a collection gateway or an EMS server.

[0067] According to one embodiment of the present application, real-time battery data includes: battery voltage, current, state of charge, temperature, health, and internal resistance.

[0068] S102, based on the trained battery internal short-circuit model, determine whether the real-time battery data is abnormal. If the real-time battery data is abnormal, estimate the characteristic parameter evolution rate, and determine the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary and the characteristic parameter boundary.

[0069] Among them, the battery internal short circuit model is a battery electrochemical-thermal-aging model, a battery internal mechanism model. In one embodiment, if there is no abnormality in the real-time battery data, it indicates that the battery has not short-circuited. If there is an abnormality in the real-time battery data, the changes in characteristic parameters such as SOC and internal resistance are estimated, and the characteristic parameter evolution rate is estimated based on the internal short circuit test.

[0070] The characteristic parameter evolution rate is the rate of change of the characteristic parameters before the battery has an internal short circuit. The characteristic parameter evolution rate = the rate of change of the characteristic parameters = |(real-time characteristic parameters - historical characteristic parameters)| / unit time. For example, the temperature evolution rate T b =(25-20)℃ / 1h=5℃ / h.

[0071] According to one embodiment of the present application, based on a trained battery internal short-circuit model, determining whether real-time battery data is abnormal includes: determining an error boundary based on the trained battery internal short-circuit model, calculating the difference between historical battery data and real-time battery data; and determining whether the difference exceeds the error boundary.

[0072] The historical battery data is some known data when the battery is operating normally. In one embodiment, the U and T models of the battery (including the historical battery data U and T) are subtracted from the measured U and T, and the difference is recorded as ΔU and ΔT. The error boundaries of U and T are determined by the internal short-circuit model, and it is further determined whether ΔU and ΔT exceed the error boundaries.

[0073] According to one embodiment of the present application, determining the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary and the characteristic parameter boundary includes: based on a trained battery internal short circuit model, comprehensively analyzing the battery's pre-factory charge and discharge data and test data, determining the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary and the characteristic parameter boundary.

[0074] In some embodiments, the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary is the maximum value of the characteristic parameter evolution rate, such as the temperature evolution rate boundary is ΔT b =3℃ / h, the internal resistance evolution rate boundary is ΔR b , SOC evolution rate boundary is ΔR b The closer the characteristic parameter evolution rate is to the boundary, the greater the risk of internal short circuit. The characteristic parameter boundary is the maximum value of the characteristic parameter. For example, the boundary of internal resistance R is R max , the closer the characteristic parameter is to the boundary, the greater the risk of internal short circuit.

[0075] According to an embodiment of the present application, the method further includes: correcting abnormal real-time battery data and outputting a correction value of the abnormal real-time battery data.

[0076] According to one embodiment of the present application, the method further includes: training a battery internal short-circuit model based on the characteristic parameter evolution rate and real-time battery data, and optimizing the battery internal short-circuit model.

[0077] In some embodiments, the internal short-circuit model is trained and optimized based on the evolution rate and real-time data of characteristic parameters such as SOC and internal resistance. In terms of model accuracy and thermal runaway judgment, the measured data set of the battery plays a vital role in the optimization of the model and the boundary setting of characteristic parameters.

[0078] The acquired data sets include: basic data of battery cell manufacturers and actual battery test data. Based on the basic data, data collection specifications are formulated to obtain certain standardized data. The basic battery electrochemical model will be deeply learned in the application and optimized for the model.

[0079] S103, based on the real-time distance between the characteristic parameter evolution rate after setting the weight and the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary, and the real-time distance between the real-time battery data after setting the weight and the characteristic parameter boundary, quantitatively evaluate the internal short circuit risk of the battery, and output the evaluation value of the internal short circuit risk.

[0080] In some embodiments, a weight is set for each characteristic parameter evolution rate and real-time battery data, and the evaluation value of the internal short circuit risk is comprehensively calculated. For example, the weight of the temperature evolution rate is 10%, the weight of the internal resistance evolution rate is 50%, etc.; the weight of the temperature is 20%, the weight of the internal resistance is 30%, etc.

[0081] In some embodiments, the temperature evolution rate T after setting the weight b and the temperature evolution rate boundary ΔT b The real-time distance is |T b -ΔT b |, set the weighted internal resistance R and internal resistance boundary R max The real-time distance is |RR max |. Based on |T b -ΔT b |,|RR max |Equal real-time distance, calculate the assessment value of internal short circuit risk, for example, 80%. The closer the distance, the greater the internal short circuit risk; the farther the distance, the smaller the internal short circuit risk.

[0082] According to one embodiment of the present application, the method also includes: dividing the level of internal short circuit risk into high risk, medium risk and low risk according to the percentage of internal short circuit risk; rating the assessment value of the internal short circuit risk to determine the risk level of the assessment value of the internal short circuit risk.

[0083] In one embodiment, if the internal short circuit risk is [0% to 40%], the risk level of the internal short circuit risk is low risk; if the internal short circuit risk is (40% to 80%], the risk level of the internal short circuit risk is medium risk; if the internal short circuit risk is (80% to 100%], the risk level of the internal short circuit risk is high risk. The risk level is determined by judging to which interval the evaluation value of the internal short circuit risk belongs. For example, if the evaluation value of the internal short circuit risk is 90%, the risk level is high risk.

[0084] When the risk of internal short circuit is high or medium, the lithium battery is in the early stage of thermal runaway. Before the lithium dendrites completely break through the diaphragm and cause internal short circuit, the battery safety of the energy storage power station is warned in advance, reminding the operation and maintenance personnel to perform maintenance, thereby avoiding accidents.

[0085] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the overall structure of the energy storage power station battery safety warning system provided in the embodiment of the present application.

The BSS client is used to access the BSS server based on Ethernet, and uses the WEB (World Wide Web) mode to perform data viewing, display, management and setting operations.

[0089] In some embodiments, there are three ways for the BSS server to obtain data: one is to directly obtain the real-time data of the BMS through the switch, the second is to obtain real-time data through the EMS, and the third is to obtain real-time data collected by the collection gateway through the switch.

[0090] In some embodiments, the BSS client accesses the BSS server through Ethernet or other means to access the BSS system, and performs operations such as data viewing, display, management, and setting in WEB mode for use by staff.

[0091] In some embodiments, the battery safety warning system is connected to a lithium battery, such as a lithium iron phosphate battery. A lithium battery is composed of cells, which are connected in series to form a battery pack. A battery pack plus a BMU (Battery Management Unit) constitutes a battery module, and a battery module plus a distribution box and a switch box constitute a battery cluster. Cell-level data can be collected through the BMS.

[0092] In some embodiments, a battery early warning diagnosis platform based on B / S architecture, which develops pre-diagnosis models, algorithms and functions for lithium batteries, enables remote information browsing and data query, while simplifying the client computer load and reducing the cost and workload of system maintenance and upgrades.

[0093] According to one embodiment of the present application, the battery management system includes: a battery management unit, a battery cluster management unit and a battery array management unit. The battery management unit is used to sample the voltage and temperature of the battery cell and use a differential UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver / Transmitter) daisy chain for communication and control.

[0094] The battery cluster management unit is used to collect and monitor the battery cluster status, SOC estimation, fault diagnosis, charge and discharge control and balance control, main power circuit on-off control and battery thermal management. The battery array management unit is used to communicate with the EMS server and PCS (Power Conversion System, energy storage converter), manage the battery SOC (State of Charge) protection logic, manage the coordinated operation of the battery system, and manage the information collection of the battery cluster management unit.

[0095] In some embodiments, the BMS is composed of three levels of BMS, including: BMU, BCMU (Battery Cluster Unit), and BAMU (Battery Array Management Unit). The battery management unit (BMU) has functions such as cell voltage and temperature sampling, active and passive balancing, etc. It adopts a software-free design and realizes communication and control functions through a differential UART daisy chain.

[0096] In some embodiments, the BCMU has functions such as battery cluster status (such as current, voltage, insulation resistance, etc.) collection and monitoring, SOC estimation, fault diagnosis, charge and discharge control and balance control, main power circuit on-off control, and battery thermal management. The BAMU communicates with the EMS and PCS, and has functions such as battery SOC protection logic management, battery system coordinated operation management, and BCMU information collection.

Figure 3 As shown, the communication switching equipment includes: a switch and a core switch, and the switch and the core switch are used to forward real-time battery data.

[0098] In some embodiments, the acquisition gateway obtains the real-time data of the collected lithium battery from the BMS system. The lower interface of the acquisition gateway has RS485, network port, and CAN (Controller Area Network) port, which are connected to the BMS. The upper interface of the acquisition gateway is the network port, which is connected to the switch. The acquisition gateway sends the voltage, SOC, temperature and other data obtained from the BMS to the BSS server through the switch.

[0099] In some embodiments, the BMS or the data collection gateway sends the collected real-time data to the BSS server or EMS through the switch or the core switch. The switch is an Ethernet communication switching device, the downstream port is an electrical port, and the upstream port is an electrical port or an optical port. The downstream port of the core switch is an electrical port or an optical port, and the upstream port is an electrical port or an optical port.

[0100] According to one embodiment of the present application, the BSS server is deployed with: BSS data processing software, BSS core algorithm and WEB server software, which are used for data sending and receiving, data cleaning, data calculation, algorithm training, internal short circuit risk calculation and providing WEB browser access and other operations.

[0101] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the process of the short circuit risk assessment method of the energy storage power station battery provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

The U and T error boundaries are determined by the internal short-circuit model, and further determine whether ΔU and ΔT exceed the boundaries. If they do not exceed the normal error, there is no short circuit. If they exceed the normal error, further determine whether there is an internal short circuit risk.

[0105] (4) Estimate the evolution rate of characteristic parameters: Estimate the changes in characteristic parameters such as SOC and internal resistance, and estimate the evolution rate of characteristic parameters.

[0106] (5) Determine the evolution rate boundary and characteristic parameter boundary of the internal short circuit characteristic parameter: Based on the internal short circuit model, the charge and discharge data and test data before leaving the factory are combined to determine the evolution rate boundary and characteristic parameter boundary of the internal short circuit characteristic parameter. For example, the temperature evolution rate boundary is ΔT b , the internal resistance evolution rate boundary is ΔR b , SOC evolution rate boundary is ΔR b etc., the internal resistance boundary is R max .

[0107] (6) Quantitative calculation of internal short circuit risk: set weights for each characteristic parameter and its evolution rate, and perform comprehensive calculations. The real-time distance between the characteristic parameter evolution rate and the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary, as well as the real-time distance between the characteristic parameter and the characteristic parameter boundary, are used to quantitatively represent the internal short circuit risk (ISR).

[0108] (7) Output diagnosis results: The diagnosis outputs the internal short circuit risk ISR and SOH correction value, and further corrects the SOC, SOH, etc. of the battery cell, battery module, and battery cluster.

[0109] In addition, internal short circuit risk rating: internal short circuit risk is divided into three levels: high risk, medium risk and low risk according to the percentage of internal short circuit risk.

[0110] In addition, the machine learning model is trained and optimized: the internal short-circuit model is trained and optimized according to the changes in characteristic parameters such as SOC and internal resistance and real-time data.

[0111] The method for assessing the internal short-circuit risk of a battery in an energy storage power station provided in an embodiment of the present application first collects real-time battery data through a battery management system, a collection gateway or an EMS server, and then estimates the characteristic parameter evolution rate when it is determined that the real-time battery data is abnormal based on a battery internal short-circuit model, and determines the characteristic parameter evolution rate boundary and the characteristic parameter boundary. Finally, based on the real-time distance between the characteristic parameter evolution rate and its boundary, and the real-time distance between the real-time battery data and the characteristic parameter boundary, the internal short-circuit risk of the battery is quantitatively assessed.

[0112] The present application scheme uses an internal short-circuit model to estimate the evolution rate of characteristic parameters, determine boundaries, and calculate real-time distances, so as to accurately assess the risk of internal short circuits and provide early warning for the safety of batteries in energy storage power stations. It has strong ease of use and practicality.

[0113] The present application scheme is mainly to detect the risk level of internal short circuit in the early stage of thermal runaway of lithium battery, before lithium dendrites completely break through the diaphragm and cause internal short circuit, so as to actively operate and maintain and avoid accidents.

[0114] This application scheme is based on the internal short-circuit model, which can accurately trace the changes in the internal mechanism of the battery. Through the SOH correction value and the digitization of the internal short-circuit risk for each battery cell, the future trend changes of the battery can be accurately predicted. Risks are detected in advance to buy enough time for active battery operation and maintenance to avoid accidents. Comprehensive monitoring and analysis are carried out, and multi-level diagnosis is performed from battery cells, battery boxes to battery clusters.
