Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an adaptive dual-effect thermal management system for a power battery box under extreme temperature conditions, especially to three key problems: high temperature in summer, low temperature in winter, and the fact that the interior of the power battery box is a closed, narrow and confined space, making it difficult to use traditional fluid media for efficient convection heat exchange. A dual-effect thermal management system for electric vehicle batteries designed for extreme weather conditions is of great significance for ensuring the performance of electric vehicle batteries and the safety of users. Background Art
[0002] According to the "White Paper on China's Two-wheeled Electric Vehicle Industry in 2022", the total sales volume of electric vehicles in my country that year was 41 million, and the annual sales volume of batteries matching electric vehicles was even greater. If the performance and life of electric vehicle batteries are reduced due to unscientific and unreasonable use, it will not only waste a lot of energy and material resources, but also pollute our ecological environment during the production and disposal of batteries, which is obviously not in line with the requirements of the scientific development concept. Under the same conditions of use, scientific and reasonable thermal management of electric vehicle batteries, improving the performance of electric vehicle batteries and extending their life can significantly save energy and material resources. In addition, with the rapid development of electric vehicle power batteries, their potential safety hazards have become increasingly prominent. The external manifestations of battery thermal runaway are mainly smoke, combustion and explosion.
[0003] The failure of power batteries is a complex process of physical and chemical interactions. The thermal runaway problem of power batteries is usually induced by electrical factors, thermal factors, and mechanical factors alone or in combination. To control the high temperature of the battery, in addition to considering its charging and discharging temperature rise, the influence of the extreme ambient temperature cannot be ignored. Generally, the high temperature limit of lithium batteries is 40℃, and the maximum limit is in the range of 40℃-60℃. However, in the hot summer, for example, in Nanjing, a southern city in my country, the daytime temperature has been close to 40℃ for several days in summer (the surface temperature rises more significantly under the action of thermal radiation). In such a high temperature environment, coupled with the heat release of the battery itself during charging and discharging, the battery temperature rise is significantly increased, which increases the risk index of thermal runaway of the battery. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out more effective thermal management of electric vehicle batteries under extreme high temperature weather conditions. In addition, it should be pointed out that in addition to the impact of high temperature on battery performance and life, the impact of low temperature on the battery cannot be ignored. Generally, the low temperature limit of lithium batteries is -20℃. The lower the temperature, the lower the battery activity, and the charging and discharging efficiency is greatly reduced. When the temperature is below 0℃, it is difficult to charge outdoors. When the temperature is below -20℃, the battery will automatically enter a dormant state and cannot be used normally. However, the low temperature in most cities in my country is below 0℃ in winter, and it is common in the northeast region to have a temperature below -20℃ in winter. Therefore, it is necessary to take certain preheating measures when charging or using electric vehicle batteries under extremely low temperature weather conditions.
[0004] From the above analysis, it can be seen that it is very necessary to develop a thermal management measure that can perform bidirectional cooling or preheating of power batteries under extreme weather and temperature conditions. In addition, considering that the interior of the battery box is a closed and narrow space, it is difficult to exert effective heat exchange capabilities using traditional fluid medium convection heat exchange methods such as air cooling and water cooling. In response to the above three key issues: high temperatures in summer, low temperatures in winter, and difficult heat exchange in closed and narrow spaces, this patent designs a dual-effect thermal management system for electric vehicle batteries under extreme weather conditions, which is of great significance to ensuring the performance of electric vehicle batteries and the safety of users.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, a dual-effect thermal management system for a power battery box of the present invention includes a heat pipe heat exchanger, a temperature monitoring management system, a danger alarm management system, and an intelligent evaluation management system.
[0020] In order to solve the problem of efficient heat exchange in the enclosed and narrow confined space of a power battery box, the present invention arranges a heat pipe heat exchanger in the power battery box. The heat pipe heat exchanger is based on the high-efficiency heat transfer element - the heat pipe has the characteristics of high heat transfer efficiency, simple structure, low cost, reliable operation, etc. The heat pipe heat exchanger can efficiently cool or heat the narrow and confined space inside the battery box.
[0021] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the heat pipe heat exchanger includes a planar heat pipe heat exchanger 1 and an external environment heat exchanger 2. The planar heat pipe heat exchanger 1 is arranged in the power battery box 4 and is close to the surface of the power battery 3, and is used to absorb heat or cold from the power battery; the external environment heat exchanger 2 is arranged outside the power battery box 4, and the external environment heat exchanger 2 is connected to the planar heat pipe heat exchanger 1, and is used to release heat or cold to the external environment.
[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, the planar heat pipe heat exchanger 1 is a planar structure composed of a plurality of first heat pipes 101. The planar heat pipe heat exchanger 1 is a rectangular structure as a whole, and the plurality of first heat pipes 101 are arranged in a mesh-like fractal shape imitating plant veins inside the rectangle. Specifically, the planar heat pipe heat exchanger 1 can be arranged on one or more surfaces of the power battery 3.
[0023] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the external environment heat exchanger 2 is composed of a plurality of independent second heat pipes 201 .
[0024] In order to optimize the space occupied by the heat pipe heat exchanger as a whole, the external environment heat exchanger 2 located outside the power battery box 4 is arranged close to the outer surface of the power battery box 4, such as Figure 3 and 4 shown.
[0025] A single heat pipe consists of a tube shell and a liquid wick, and transfers heat through the evaporation and condensation of liquid in a fully enclosed vacuum tube.
[0026] When the heat pipe heat exchanger is used as a radiator, the heating section of the first heat pipe 101 inside the battery box is heated, the liquid in the first heat pipe 101 evaporates and flows to the second heat pipe 201 outside the battery box, releasing heat and condensing into liquid, and the liquid then flows back to the first heat pipe 101 along the porous material wick on the inner wall of the cooling section by capillary force. When used as a preheater, the first heat pipe 101 outside the battery box is heated, the liquid in the pipe evaporates and flows to the first heat pipe 101 inside the battery box to transfer heat to the battery box.
[0027] In view of the efficient heat exchange method based on heat pipes, in order to realize thermal management functions such as the start and stop of cooling / preheating that is adaptive to extreme temperatures, and high temperature danger alarm, the present invention provides a temperature monitoring management system and a danger alarm management system.
[0028] The temperature monitoring and management system performs temperature monitoring and control operations on the environment inside the power battery box, sets the upper and lower temperature limits, and thus ensures that the ambient temperature inside the battery box is within the range defined by the upper and lower limits.
[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the temperature monitoring and management system includes a single-chip microcomputer, multiple temperature sensors, a heating device and a cooling device. The multiple temperature sensors are arranged inside the power battery box and are connected to the single-chip microcomputer through a first signal processing circuit. The single-chip microcomputer is connected to a temperature setting module and is connected to the heating device and the cooling device respectively through relays in a PID control manner; the temperature sensor monitors the ambient temperature inside the power battery box, and the monitored temperature value is transmitted to the single-chip microcomputer. The single-chip microcomputer calculates the upper and lower limits set by the temperature setting module through a PID control algorithm. If the monitored temperature is lower than the lower limit, the heating device is controlled to start through a relay. If it is higher than the upper limit, the cooling device is controlled to start through a relay.
[0030] In one embodiment, the single chip microcomputer adopts 51 single chip microcomputer, the temperature sensor adopts DS18B20 temperature sensor, the heating device adopts heating film, the cooling device adopts fan, and the temperature setting module adopts 4-digit digital tube, button and indicator light.
[0031] 51 single-chip microcomputer: As the core control unit of the temperature monitoring and management system, it is responsible for coordinating the work of various components, processing the temperature data transmitted by the temperature sensor, and controlling the operation of other equipment according to the preset upper and lower temperature limits.
[0032] DS18B20 temperature sensor: Accurately monitors the ambient temperature inside the battery box. Its detection range is -55.0~125.0 degrees Celsius with an accuracy of 0.1 degrees Celsius, and can provide accurate temperature information for the system.
[0033] 4-digit digital tube: used to intuitively display the current temperature value or the upper and lower temperature limits set by the system, making it convenient for users to view temperature-related information.
[0034] Buttons: including "Set Button", "Minus Button" and "Plus Button". Among them, the "Set Button" is used to enter and exit the temperature setting mode; the "Minus Button" and "Plus Button" can increase or decrease the upper and lower limit temperature values of the temperature control in the setting mode.
[0035] Indicator lights: There are "temperature upper limit light", "temperature lower limit light", "green light" and "red light". The "temperature upper limit light" and "temperature lower limit light" light up when the upper and lower limits of the temperature are set, prompting the user that they are in the setting state; when the temperature is lower than the lower limit, the "green light" is on, indicating that the heating device (heating film) is working to heat up; when the temperature is higher than the upper limit, the "red light" is on, indicating that the refrigeration device (fan) is working to cool down.
[0036] The setting process of the temperature control system is as follows: press the "Set button", and the "Upper temperature limit light" and "Lower temperature limit light" will light up at the same time, indicating that the system has entered the temperature setting mode. In the setting mode, by operating the "minus button" and "plus button", the upper and lower temperature limits of the temperature control can be accurately set. After completing the temperature value setting, press the "Set button" again, and the system will enter the normal working mode and start to monitor and control the ambient temperature inside the battery box.
[0037] When the temperature detected by the temperature sensor is lower than the set lower limit: the "green light" turns on, indicating that the heating device (heating film) is about to start. The heating device (heating film) starts to work and heats up the environment inside the battery box until the temperature rises above the lower limit. When the temperature detected by the temperature sensor is higher than the set upper limit: the "red light" turns on, indicating that the cooling device (fan) is about to start.
[0038] The hazard alarm management system sets a limit temperature value, and when the ambient temperature inside the power battery box reaches the limit temperature value, an alarm signal is issued.
[0039] like Figure 6As shown, the hazard alarm management system includes a single-chip microcomputer, a high-temperature sensor, a smoke sensor, and an alarm device; there are multiple high-temperature sensors and smoke sensors, which are arranged in the power battery box, and the high-temperature sensor and the smoke sensor are connected to the single-chip microcomputer through the second signal processing circuit, and the single-chip microcomputer is connected to the alarm device. At the same time, the single-chip microcomputer is also connected to a reset circuit, a clock circuit and a limit temperature setting module; the limit temperature setting module is used to set the limit temperature value. When the temperature detected by the high-temperature sensor exceeds the limit temperature value or the smoke sensor detects smoke, the single-chip microcomputer will trigger the alarm device to sound an alarm.
[0040] In one embodiment, the single chip microcomputer adopts 51 single chip microcomputer, the high temperature sensor adopts DS18B20 temperature sensor. The limit temperature setting module adopts 4-digit digital tube, key, indicator light. The alarm device includes indicator light, buzzer, GSM SMS module.
[0041] 51 single-chip microcomputer: As the core control unit of the hazard alarm management system, it is responsible for receiving data from the temperature sensor, processing and controlling other components according to the set conditions, such as starting the sound and light alarm and SMS alarm when the temperature exceeds the limit.
[0042] DS18B20 temperature sensor: used to accurately detect the ambient temperature inside the battery box. The detection range is -55.0~125.0 degrees Celsius with an accuracy of 0.1 degrees Celsius. It provides temperature information to the system and is the key basis for determining whether to trigger an alarm.
[0043] 4-digit digital tube: used to display the ambient temperature value, so that users can intuitively understand the current temperature conditions.
[0044] Button: The "Set button" is used to set the upper limit temperature value of temperature control.
[0045] The indicator light is connected to the single-chip microcomputer through the first current-limiting resistor, and when the alarm is triggered, the indicator light is lit or flashed to intuitively display the alarm information to the user; The buzzer is connected to the single-chip computer through the second current-limiting resistor, and plays the role of a sound alarm by making a sound when the alarm is triggered; The GSM SMS module is connected to the microcontroller through serial communication and connected to the user terminal through the GSM network. When the alarm is triggered, the GSM SMS module sends a text message containing alarm information to the pre-set user terminal to realize remote alarm notification.
[0046] The use and setting process of the extreme temperature alarm system is as follows: Press the "Set button" to enter the temperature control upper limit temperature value setting mode, and set the upper limit temperature value through specific operations (such as increase and decrease buttons, etc.). After pressing the "Set button" again, the system enters the normal working mode. At this time, the 4-digit digital tube begins to display the ambient temperature, and the system enters the armed state. After entering the armed state, the green light flashes 10 times as a prompt. During the armed period, if the temperature detected by the DS18B20 temperature sensor exceeds the set limit temperature or the smoke sensor detects smoke: the extreme temperature alarm system automatically starts the sound and light alarm, the buzzer sounds, and the indicator light lights up to attract the attention of the surrounding personnel. At the same time, the GSM SMS module is triggered to send a mobile phone SMS alarm to the user, informing that the temperature exceeds the limit and reminding the user to deal with it in time.
[0047] Both the temperature monitoring and management system and the danger alarm management system involve single-chip microcomputers. In a specific embodiment, the two can share the same single-chip microcomputer or use different single-chip microcomputers independently.
[0048] The battery performance under extreme temperature conditions is greatly affected by the temperature, and only professionals know the changing rules of battery performance, while ordinary users of electric bicycles are not very clear. Therefore, the present invention provides an intelligent evaluation management system that can provide more convenient, scientific, reasonable, safe and effective usage suggestions for electric bicycle users.

[0051] The calculation formula for the endurance of an electric vehicle is: Power battery endurance = battery voltage × battery capacity × electric vehicle speed ÷ motor power × extreme temperature impact factor, where the extreme temperature impact factor is obtained by analyzing a large amount of battery performance experimental data under different temperatures.
[0052] In one embodiment, the intelligent assessment management system is implemented based on the WeChat applet, which is light and convenient. Figure 8As shown. Each page has a clear focus, so that users can quickly understand the page content every time they enter a new page to avoid other interference factors that are not related to the user's decision and operation. All pages will have a navigation bar provided by WeChat, which uniformly solves the problem of where you are and how to go back. WeChat's hierarchical navigation maintains a consistent experience, which helps users form a unified experience and interactive cognition within WeChat, without adding learning costs or changing usage habits when switching between various mini-programs and other WeChat pages.
