TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of power battery thermal management, and particularly relates to a method for optimizing the cooling performance of a liquid cooling plate of a power battery. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of electric vehicles and energy storage systems, the energy density of power batteries is increasing year by year, and the fast charging technology is rapidly developing, so the heat dissipation demand of power batteries is becoming higher and higher, and the performance of the thermal management system has increasingly become a bottleneck technology restricting the development of the new energy vehicle industry. An efficient heat dissipation system not only helps to improve the performance of power batteries, but also prolongs the service life of power batteries and ensures safety.
[0003] A liquid cooling system is usually used for thermal management of a vehicle power battery. Liquid cooling pipes are arranged in the liquid cooling plate, and most of the liquid cooling pipes adopt an S-shaped topology. On the one hand, the structure is simple and can be formed by one-time stamping, and on the other hand, the heat dissipation demand of the entire battery pack can be basically guaranteed. A plurality of parallel liquid cooling pipes can be arranged or the pipe topology can be optimized to avoid a too large temperature difference between the inlet and outlet of the pipe, thereby improving the temperature consistency of the battery pack.
[0004] Most of the liquid cooling plates used in existing electric vehicles adopt smooth cooling pipes, while arranging concave-convex units, fins and other heat transfer enhancement units in the liquid cooling pipes can significantly improve the heat transfer efficiency and meet the heat dissipation demand of the new generation of power batteries with large capacity and high energy density. However, due to the introduction of the heat transfer enhancement units, the design variables increase significantly. In fact, the optimization problem of such a liquid cooling plate belongs to an NP problem, and there are problems such as high solution complexity and low efficiency. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application aims at the deficiencies of the prior art and provides a method for optimizing the cooling performance of a liquid cooling plate with heat transfer enhancement units for a vehicle power battery. The heat transfer enhancement units are used to realize turbulence enhancement and heat transfer enhancement, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency of the liquid cooling pipes. Then, a multi-layer optimization method is used to step by step optimize the liquid cooling pipes, the arrangement mode of the heat transfer enhancement units and the size of the heat transfer enhancement units, which not only avoids solving the NP problem, but also meets the actual engineering requirements.
[0006] The technical scheme provided by the present application is as follows:
[0007] A method for optimizing the cooling performance of a liquid cooling plate of a power battery, comprising the following steps:
[0008] Step 1: calculating the estimated value of the heat dissipation demand of the power battery pack and determining the size range of the liquid cooling pipes inside the liquid cooling plate and the peripheral size of the liquid cooling plate;
[0009] Step two: determine the liquid cooling loop topology, take the size parameters and topology position parameters of the liquid cooling plate pipeline as variables, build a first optimization model, and use the first optimization model to obtain the smoothest pipeline scheme with the best performance;
[0010] Step three: taking the optimal smooth pipeline scheme obtained in step two as the initial scheme, arranging the enhanced heat transfer unit combination on the pipeline wall surface, taking the enhanced heat transfer unit type and unit combination mode as variables, building a second optimization model, and using the second optimization model to obtain the optimal enhanced heat transfer unit combination scheme;
[0011] Step four: taking the optimal smooth pipeline scheme obtained in step two as the initial scheme, using the optimal enhanced heat transfer unit combination scheme obtained in step three, taking the geometric size of the enhanced heat transfer unit and the arrangement size of the unit combination as variables, building a third optimization model, and using the third optimization model to obtain the pipeline scheme with the best cooling performance of the liquid cooling plate of the power battery.

[0013] In the optimization method, the term "enhanced heat transfer unit" is used to represent functional elements such as pits, bulges, fins, vortex generators, etc. with various shapes that can achieve turbulence enhancement. The terms "enhanced heat transfer unit combination" and "unit combination arrangement" are used to represent the combination of enhanced heat transfer units that can achieve turbulence enhancement, and have the same meaning, referring to the combination and arrangement of enhanced heat transfer units of the same type with the same shape and size, the combination of enhanced heat transfer units of the same type with different shapes and sizes, and the combination of enhanced heat transfer units of different types.

[0018] The method further utilizes flow-heat coupling simulation analysis to analyze the cooling performance of each scheme and the optimized scheme in steps two to four.
[0019] The method further directly adopts the enhanced heat transfer unit combination scheme of alternate straight line arrangement of concave-convex in step three without further optimization design.
