Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of power battery manufacturing and quality inspection, and in particular relates to an ultrasonic guided wave measurement system and an intelligent prediction method for the electrolyte content of a soft-pack battery. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are secondary batteries with high voltage, high energy density, long cycle performance and no memory effect. They are mainly composed of positive electrode, negative electrode, electrolyte and diaphragm. The electrolyte is the carrier of ion transmission in lithium-ion batteries. When the electrolyte content is too low, the electrodes and diaphragm are not completely impregnated, the internal resistance increases and the battery capacity decreases. For batteries with too high electrolyte content, the production cost increases, the energy density decreases and the sealing becomes worse. In addition, a large amount of gas is formed during the charging and discharging process, which increases the internal pressure of the battery and even causes the shell to rupture and the electrolyte to leak. Therefore, the appropriate electrolyte content in the manufacturing process is the key to ensuring the safe operation of the battery, and a matching prediction method is urgently needed.

[0003] The evaluation of soft-pack batteries after encapsulation is somewhat difficult. Non-destructive testing methods based on ultrasound, radiation, neutron diffraction (Neutronradiography) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) can detect the content of the electrolyte without destroying the battery structure, and have been widely used. Among them, radiation is extremely harmful to the human body and requires more complex equipment and higher costs. In addition, the inconvenience of use and high cost limit the popularity of the neutron diffraction method. Furthermore, non-destructive testing based on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is only applicable to the evaluation of the degree of electrolyte infiltration of soft-pack batteries that have been formed. Ultrasound is sensitive to defects or damage inside soft-pack batteries. Combined with artificial intelligence algorithms, it is expected to accurately predict the electrolyte content of soft-pack batteries.

[0004] At present, nondestructive testing methods based on ultrasonic body waves have attracted the attention of scholars. When the electrolyte content reaches a certain value, the C-scan based on ultrasonic body waves can intuitively present the distribution of the electrolyte, but there are also problems such as insensitivity to soft-pack batteries with low electrolyte content, slow detection speed and complex equipment.

[0083] Furthermore, the typical features include at least total energy, the number of wave packets, the amplitude of the first wave packet, the arrival time of the first wave packet, the maximum amplitude, the amplitude of the last wave packet and the arrival time of the last wave packet.

[0084] Furthermore, the data set of the initial typical feature set - electrolyte content is preprocessed including:

The specific division ratio can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0089] Step S43, using methods such as five-fold cross validation to evaluate the performance of the machine learning model or the deep learning model and optimize the parameters of the machine learning model or the deep learning model, select a suitable machine learning model or deep learning model and its parameters to ensure the accuracy of the prediction of the electrolyte content of the soft-pack battery.

[0090] Furthermore, the time domain signal is input into the prediction model to obtain the electrolyte content of the soft pack battery including:

[0091] Extract typical features of time domain signals and obtain feature sets;

[0096] Step S53, inputting the feature set into a trained machine learning model or a deep learning model to predict the electrolyte content of the tested soft-pack battery.

[0097] The present embodiment is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0098] Step S1, designing an ultrasonic measurement system, a clamping device and an ultrasonic transducer, building an ultrasonic guided wave measurement system, and exciting and receiving ultrasonic guided waves.

[0099] Furthermore, this embodiment is constructed as follows Figure 2 The ultrasonic measurement system shown in the figure has an excitation signal of a 150kHz short sine pure tone with a Hanning window. The excitation transducer and the receiving transducer are self-made ultrasonic transducers, wherein the matching layer, backing layer and shielding layer of the excitation transducer and the receiving transducer are designed and manufactured with the aid of aluminum blocks, copper meshes, tungsten powders, epoxy resins, etc.

[0100] Step S2, this embodiment prepares 5 soft-pack batteries with different electrolyte contents, wherein the electrolyte increment is 0.5 ml. This embodiment carries out ultrasonic guided wave measurement of soft-pack batteries, and measures the same battery 100 times to form an original data set with a data volume of 500.

[0101] Furthermore, in this embodiment, five ternary lithium-ion batteries with a capacity of 0.5 Ah (including three positive electrode sheets and four negative electrode sheets) were prepared, and ultrasonic guided wave testing was performed on the above batteries. Figure 3 As shown, the contents of the electrolyte are 0.25 ml, 0.75 ml, 1.25 ml, 1.75 ml, and 2.25 ml, respectively, and the increment of the electrolyte is 0.5 ml. In this embodiment, each battery is measured 100 times by means of an ultrasonic guided wave measurement system, and the amount of data in the original data set is 500.

[0102] Step S3, extracting features such as amplitude and arrival time from the original data set to form a data set consisting of typical features and electrolyte content.

[0103] Furthermore, this embodiment selects 7 typical features, including total energy, number of wave packets, maximum amplitude, arrival time of the first wave packet, amplitude of the first wave packet, arrival time of the last wave packet and amplitude of the last wave packet. The arrival time of the first wave packet and the arrival time of the last wave packet reflect the propagation characteristics of ultrasonic guided waves in soft-pack batteries with different electrolyte contents, the maximum amplitude, the amplitude of the first wave packet and the amplitude of the last wave packet reflect the attenuation of ultrasonic guided waves in soft-pack batteries with different electrolyte contents, the number of wave packets reflects the multi-mode and dispersion of ultrasonic guided waves in soft-pack batteries with different electrolyte contents, and the total energy reflects the energy change of ultrasonic guided waves in soft-pack batteries with different electrolyte contents.

[0104] Step S4, divide the data set of the typical feature set - electrolyte content into a training set and a validation set, adjust the parameters of the model, and complete the training of the machine learning model.

[0105] Furthermore, this embodiment predicts the electrolyte content in the soft-pack battery with the help of a random forest model. Random forest is an ensemble learning method based on decision trees, which performs label classification by constructing multiple decision trees. This ensemble learning method is suitable for multi-feature and multi-category classification problems and can effectively process high-dimensional features and large-scale data sets.

[0106] This embodiment uses the five-fold cross-validation method to train and validate the machine learning model, and divides the data set into 5 subsets. In the first fold, the first subset, the second subset, the third subset, and the fourth subset are used as training sets, and the fifth subset is used as a validation set; in the second fold, the first subset, the second subset, the third subset, and the fifth subset are used as training sets, and the fourth subset is used as a validation set; this cycle repeats, and each subset is used as a validation set. Five-fold cross-validation ensures the diversity of the validation set and the training set, and effectively avoids the occurrence of overfitting.

[0107] In this embodiment, 80% of the data set of the typical feature set - electrolyte content is used as the training set, and 20% of the data set of the typical feature set - electrolyte content is used as the validation set. The validation set is not used in the model training process, which ensures the objectivity of the results and the generalization ability of the model. The training set includes 400 data, of which 240 are related to unwetted batteries (the content of the electrolyte is 0.25ml, 0.75ml and 1.25ml), 80 are related to poorly wetted batteries (the content of the electrolyte is 1.75ml), and 80 are related to well-wetted batteries (the content of the electrolyte is 2.25ml).

[0108] For the parameter adjustment of the random forest model, select appropriate hyperparameters (such as the number of decision trees and the maximum depth of the decision tree, etc.). For the selection of the machine learning model, compare the predicted value with the true value, calculate the recognition rate of the electrolyte content of the soft-pack battery, and select the machine learning model with the highest recognition rate.

[0109] like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment evaluates the random forest model with the help of confusion matrix, and the percentage of different cells reflects the relationship between the predicted value and the true value. The results show that the random forest model misidentified 2 samples with an average accuracy of 98%. Among them, the recognition rate of soft-pack batteries with injection volumes of 0.25ml, 1.25ml, 1.75ml and 2.25ml can reach 100%; for 3 types of batteries with different electrolyte contents, the recognition rates of unwetted batteries (electrolyte content of 0.25ml, 0.75ml and 1.25ml), poorly wetted batteries (batteries with an electrolyte content of 1.75ml) and well-wetted batteries (batteries with an electrolyte content of 2.25ml) have all reached 100%.

[0110] like Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment analyzes the above typical features, among which the amplitude of the last wave packet, the maximum amplitude and the arrival time of the last wave packet are the key features in the ultrasonic guided wave intelligent prediction method of the electrolyte content of the soft-pack battery. The above features may effectively reflect the distribution of the electrolyte inside the soft-pack battery.

[0111] The above are only preferred specific implementations of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
