[0040] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Identical components are indicated by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, while the terms "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.
[0041] like Figure 1 The diagram shown is a flowchart of a water temperature estimation method according to an embodiment of the present invention, including:
[0042] Step S101: Based on the heating power of the electronic device and the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval, calculate the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device.
[0043] Step S102: Based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic device, estimate the end water temperature of the water path under the condition that the temperature at each point does not change with time.
[0044] Specifically, the present invention can be applied to electronic devices with processing capabilities, such as electronic control units (ECUs) or extended domain control units (XCUs) in vehicles.
[0045] Electronic devices possess heat dissipation power. Electronic devices dissipate heat through cooling water in a water system and air. Specifically, the heat dissipation power of an electronic device is:
[0046] E=(1-η)·UI(1)
[0047] Where E is the heating power, η is the operating efficiency of the electronic device, U is the voltage, and I is the current.
[0048] The electronic device executes step S101, calculating the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device based on the heat dissipation power of the electronic device and the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval. The temperature sampling interval is the time interval for sampling the power of the electronic device.
[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic of a heat conduction model according to an embodiment of the present invention. Electronic device 1 is in contact with the cooling water channel and dissipates heat through the cooling water in the cooling water channel 2. At the same time, electronic device 1 is exposed to the air and dissipates heat through the air.
[0050] Since it is a quasi-steady state, the internal temperature of the heated component of electronic device 1 can be considered uniform, and internal heat conduction can be neglected. Therefore, according to the law of conservation of energy, we have:
[0051] dU=(EQ w -Q a )·dt (2)
[0052] Where dt is the temperature sampling interval, dU is the internal energy change during the temperature sampling interval, E is the electrical power generated by the electronic device, and Q is the internal energy change during the temperature sampling interval. w The water heat exchange power is the heat transferred from the electronic devices to the cooling water in cooling water path 2 per unit time, Q. a The heat exchange power is the amount of heat transferred to the air by electronic devices per unit time. The heat exchange power is calculated by power calculation, and the internal energy change is predicted by measuring temperature changes through internal sensors of the device and the heat exchange between the electronic device and the air. Finally, the heat exchange between the electronic device and the water is obtained.
[0053] Then, step S102 is executed to estimate the end water temperature of the water path under the condition that the temperature at each point does not change with time, based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic device.
[0054] Specifically, the entire heat exchange system can be considered as having a steady-state heat exchange where the temperature at each point does not change over time. Steady-state heat exchange means that the temperature distribution within the entire heat exchange system, including the electronic components acting as heat sources and the various heat transfer elements dissipating heat, remains unchanged. This means that the temperature at each point is constant or changes very little. Based on uniform flow heat exchange, the water channel wall temperature can be considered constant within a single step. Therefore, the temperature of the pipe wall within a unit step is considered uniform. Thus, based on the steady-state heat exchange within the control volume, the relationship function between the water heat exchange power and the water temperature at the end of the water channel can be determined. The end water temperature of the water channel can be estimated based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic components.
[0055] In some embodiments, the end water temperature is the water inlet temperature or the water outlet temperature.
[0056] This invention calculates the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device based on the heating power and the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval. Based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic device, it estimates the end water temperature of the water path under the condition that the temperature at each point does not change with time. Therefore, it can determine the end water temperature of the water path based on the heating power and measured temperature of the electronic device and the change in internal energy of the electronic device, thereby replacing the water temperature sensor with an algorithm and reducing costs.
[0057] like Figure 2 The diagram shown illustrates the workflow of a water temperature estimation method according to another embodiment of the present invention, comprising:
[0058] Step S201: Calculate the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval based on the temperature difference obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings.

[0060] The change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval is calculated as: dU=mCp·dT·dt, where m is the mass of the electronic device, Cp is the isobaric specific heat of the electronic device, dT is the temperature difference of the electronic device obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings, and dt is the temperature sampling interval.
[0061] In one embodiment, before calculating the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval based on the temperature difference obtained from two consecutive temperature samples, the method further includes:
[0062] The temperature difference of the electronic device obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings is corrected to obtain the following temperature difference: Among them, dT meas The measured temperature difference of the electronic device is obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings, and 'a' is the time delay coefficient.
[0063] Step S202: Calculate the air heat exchange power based on the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air.
[0064] In one embodiment, calculating the air heat exchange power based on the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air specifically includes:
[0065] Calculate the air heat exchange power as Q a =α a A(T meas -Ta), where Q a The air heat exchange power is denoted as A, where A is the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air, and α is the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air. a It is the air heat transfer coefficient, T meas Ta is the measured temperature of the electronic device, and Ta is the air temperature.
[0066] Step S203: Calculate the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device based on the internal energy change, the heating power of the electronic device, and the air heat exchange power.
[0067] In one embodiment, calculating the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device based on the internal energy change, the heating power of the electronic device, and the air heat exchange power specifically includes:
[0068] The calculated heat exchange power of the water in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device is as follows: Among them, Q w Let E be the water heat exchange power, E be the heating power, dU be the internal energy change, dt be the temperature sampling interval, and Q be the temperature sampling interval. a The air heat exchange power is [value missing].
[0069] Step S204: Based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic device, estimate the end water temperature of the water path under the condition that the temperature at each point does not change with time.
[0070] In one embodiment, the end water temperature of the water path is the inlet water temperature. The estimation of the end water temperature of the water path based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic device, assuming that the temperature at each point does not change over time, specifically includes:
[0071] The estimated water inlet temperature is: Among them, T in T represents the water temperature at the water inlet. meas Q is the measured temperature of the electronic device. w Let α be the heat exchange power of the water. w The heat transfer coefficient of water, Cp is the water mass flow rate. w For the specific heat of water at constant pressure, A w The area for water heat exchange.
[0072] Specifically, step S201 is first executed, which calculates the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval based on the temperature difference obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings.
[0073] In one embodiment, calculating the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval based on the temperature difference obtained from two consecutive temperature samples specifically includes:
[0074] The change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval is calculated as: dU=mCp·dT·dt, where m is the mass of the electronic device, Cp is the isobaric specific heat of the electronic device, dT is the temperature difference of the electronic device obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings, and dt is the temperature sampling interval.
[0075] Specifically, the change in internal energy is calculated according to formula (3):
[0076] dU=mCp·dT·dt(3)
[0077] Where m is the mass of the electronic device, Cp is the isobaric specific heat of the electronic device, dT is the temperature difference of the electronic device obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings, and dt is the temperature sampling interval.
[0078] This embodiment provides a formula for calculating changes in internal energy.
[0079] Due to fluctuations in temperature sensors, the difference between the measured temperature of an electronic device obtained by directly using two consecutive temperature samples will exhibit high-frequency changes in the measured temperature caused by these fluctuations.
[0080] In one embodiment, before calculating the change in internal energy of the electronic device during the temperature sampling interval based on the temperature difference obtained from two consecutive temperature samples, the method further includes:
[0081] The temperature difference of the electronic device obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings is corrected to obtain the following temperature difference: Among them, dT meas The measured temperature difference of the electronic device is obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings, and 'a' is the time delay coefficient.
[0082] In this embodiment, a filter is added to the measured temperature difference to filter out high-frequency changes in the test temperature caused by fluctuations.
[0083] The temperature difference of the electronic device obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings is corrected as follows:
[0084]
[0085] Among them, dT meas The measured temperature difference of the electronic device is obtained from two consecutive temperature samplings, where 'a' is the time delay coefficient, which can be adjusted according to the thermal inertia of the electronic device, and 'e' is the natural constant.
[0086] Then, step S202 is executed to calculate the air heat exchange power based on the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air.
[0087] In one embodiment, calculating the air heat exchange power based on the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air specifically includes:
[0088] Calculate the air heat exchange power as Q a =α a A(T meas -Ta), where Q a The air heat exchange power is denoted as A, where A is the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air, and α is the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air. a It is the air heat transfer coefficient, T meas The measured temperature of the electronic device.
[0089] Specifically, the air heat exchange power is calculated using formula (5).
[0090] Q a =α a A(T meas -Ta) (5)
[0091] Among them, Q a The air heat exchange power is denoted as A, where A is the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air, and α is the heat exchange area between the electronic device and the air. a It is the air heat transfer coefficient, T meas Ta is the measured temperature of the electronic device, and Ta is the air temperature.
[0092] Calculate the air heat transfer coefficient a aThe heat transfer coefficient can be fitted according to the air mass flow rate or the Reynolds number can be calculated using a dimensionless method, and then the heat transfer coefficient can be determined based on the relationship between the Prandtl number and the Nusselt number.
[0093] The heat transfer coefficient can be fitted using a quadratic polynomial based on the air mass flow rate, as shown in the following formula:
[0094]
[0095] Where, α a The air heat transfer coefficient, It is air mass flow rate, C 1a C 2a C 3a These are the fitting coefficients, which need to be fitted based on experimental values. However, since air heat exchange is usually relatively small, the accuracy can be reduced.
[0096] The dimensionless method involves two flow regimes: laminar and turbulent. These two regimes are distinguished by the Reynolds number, which is calculated using the following formula:
[0097]
[0098] Nusselt number calculation formula:
[0099]
[0100] In the formula Re a It is the Reynolds number of air, Nu a It is the Nusselt number of air, V a It is the air velocity, L a It is the air heat exchange length, v a It is the dynamic viscosity of air, λ a Let be the thermal conductivity coefficient of air. Then, the air heat transfer coefficient can be calculated as:
[0101]
[0102] In the formula, Pr a Let f(Re be the Prandtl number of air). a ,Pr a ) is an empirical function.
[0103] This embodiment obtains accurate air heat exchange power based on the heat exchange area between electronic devices and air.
[0104] Next, step S203 is executed, and the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device is calculated based on the change in internal energy, the heating power of the electronic device, and the air heat exchange power.
[0105] In one embodiment, calculating the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device based on the internal energy change, the heating power of the electronic device, and the air heat exchange power specifically includes:
[0106] The calculated heat exchange power of the water in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device is as follows: Among them, Q w Let E be the water heat exchange power, E be the heating power, dU be the internal energy change, dt be the temperature sampling interval, and Q be the temperature sampling interval. a The air heat exchange power is [value missing].
[0107] Specifically, by transforming formula (2), the water heat exchange power in the water path that exchanges heat with the electronic device is obtained as follows:
[0108] Among them, Q w Let E be the heat exchange power of the water, E be the heating power, and E be the heating power of the electronic device calculated using formula (1). Let dU be the change in internal energy, dt be the temperature sampling interval, and Q be the heating power of the electronic device. a The air heat exchange power is [value missing].
[0109] In this embodiment, the internal energy change and air heat exchange power are subtracted from the heating power to obtain the accurate water heat exchange power.
[0110] Finally, step S204 is executed to estimate the end water temperature of the water path under the condition that the temperature at each point does not change with time, based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic device.
[0111] In one embodiment, the end water temperature of the water path is the inlet water temperature. The estimation of the end water temperature of the water path based on the water heat exchange power and the measured temperature of the electronic device, assuming that the temperature at each point does not change over time, specifically includes:
[0112] The estimated water inlet temperature is: Among them, T in T represents the water temperature at the water inlet. meas Q is the measured temperature of the electronic device. w Let α be the heat exchange power of the water. w The heat transfer coefficient of water, Cp is the water mass flow rate. w For the specific heat of water at constant pressure, A w The area for water heat exchange.
[0113] Specifically, based on uniform flow heat transfer, assuming the wall temperature in the water path remains constant within a single step, then we have:
[0114]
[0115] in, Cp is the water mass flow rate. w For the specific heat of water at constant pressure, T out T represents the water temperature at the water outlet. in This refers to the water temperature at the water inlet.
[0116] Assuming the temperature of the tube wall is uniform within a unit step length, the steady-state heat transfer within the control volume is as follows:
[0117]
[0118] Where, α w The heat transfer coefficient of water, R is the water mass flow rate, R is the heat transfer area per unit length, and Cp is the heat transfer area per unit length. w For the specific heat of water at constant pressure, T0 is the water temperature at position 0, generally with the inlet as position 0, T L Let dT be the water temperature at position L. water Let dx be the temperature difference with the derivative of the length, and L be the pipe length. Since the water temperature T0 at position 0 is actually the same as the water inlet temperature T... in T L This is actually the water outlet temperature T. out Therefore, the integral of the heat transfer formula is:
[0119]
[0120] Where, α w It is the heat transfer coefficient of water, which can be obtained in the same way as the heat transfer coefficient of air. A w For water heat exchange area, R is the water mass flow rate, R is the heat transfer area per unit length, and Cp is the heat transfer area per unit length. w The specific heat of water at constant pressure. Therefore, substituting formula (11) into formula (13), we can obtain...
[0121]
[0122] Where T in T represents the water temperature at the water inlet. meas Q is the measured temperature of the electronic device. w Let α be the heat exchange power of the water. w The heat transfer coefficient of water, Cp is the water mass flow rate. w For the specific heat of water at constant pressure, A w The area for water heat exchange.
[0123] This embodiment uses water heat exchange power to infer the inlet water temperature, thereby reducing sensor requirements, lowering costs, and achieving high accuracy.
[0124] After obtaining the inlet water temperature, the outlet water temperature T can be calculated according to formula (13). out .
[0125] In some embodiments, the method further includes:
[0126] Acquire multiple experimental data, including the measured value of the water inlet temperature;
[0127] Estimate the heat exchange area A of a water source w The initial value is based on steady-state heat transfer. The water inlet temperature is estimated according to the water heat transfer power and the measured temperature of the electronic device. Specifically, the water inlet temperature is calculated according to formula (14).
[0128] Adjust the water heat exchange area until the estimated water inlet temperature matches the experimental water inlet temperature.
[0129] In some embodiments, a water flow model is built using a neural network model to obtain the water mass flow rate.
[0130] The neural network model is established by obtaining physical model data from experimental data, and then expanding from the physical model data.
[0131] Specifically, the water mass flow rate is constant under different states of the heating element. The heating element is an electronic device that serves as a heat source; therefore, existing water flow rate modeling methods can be used to construct a water flow rate model, and the corresponding water mass flow rate can be obtained when the state of the heating element is determined. For example... Figure 4 As shown, experimental data 401 is first obtained, then modeling and correction are performed, and the data is input into the GT Power (engine working process simulation calculation software) model 402. The mapping database 403 is obtained through DoE. After feature selection, training and verification, the ANN flow static model 404 is obtained, and the flow dynamic model 405 is obtained through the time constant.
[0132] As an example, the water flow model is constructed as follows:
[0133] 1. Obtain key flow data in the experiment, correct parameters such as pump pressure rise, component pressure drop, and friction loss, build a physical model, and correct it based on key experimental data.
[0134] 2. A physical model is built based on the experimental data, expanding upon the data. This step involves calculating branch flows that are not measured in the experiment but are relevant to the simulation. Specifically, the physical model is built using GT Power software. Then, a mapping database is created using the Design of Experiment (DOE). This mapping database can be viewed as a large amount of input-output mapping data, which can be used to build a neural network model.
[0135] 3. Based on the data obtained in step 2, the control variables in the system are used as modeling features, and the features are expanded according to their physical meaning, as shown in Table 1. The expansion can be based on the order relationship between pump speed and head, temperature and radiative heat transfer, as well as the instantaneous energy and cumulative energy entering the system.

[0137] Feature filtering is performed based on extended features, and the filtering method is based on the generalized neural network GRNN with joint probability distribution.
[0138] The screening process is as follows:
[0139] 4.1 Place all candidate features into the candidate set, at which point the selected set is empty;
[0140] 4.2 Use the features in the candidate set to approximate the output value through GRNN, traverse the features in the candidate set, and select the features with the minimum mean squared error (MSE) to enter the candidate set;
[0141] 4.3 The iterative process then begins, where the fitting objective is changed to fitting the remaining information after the output value is obtained by fitting the features in the selected set, and the features with the smallest MSE are selected into the selected set.
[0142] 4.4 Iterate sequentially until all features in the candidate set have been traversed.
[0143] GRNN is based on probability, which can better reflect the one-to-one correspondence between the control variables that serve as model inputs and the state variables that serve as model outputs.
[0144] 5. Select the first 4 features that reduce the MSE of the GRNN fitting to 0 based on the feature order given by the screening results. This ensures accuracy while avoiding feature redundancy.
[0145] 6. Randomly divide the data obtained in step 2 into training and testing sets. Build a neural network model based on the selected features, use the K-test to compare the accuracy of the models, and select the optimal traffic model by combining the training and testing accuracy. Figure 4 The static model of traffic.
[0146] 7. Establish a steady-state heat transfer model for the heat exchange components in the system, such as the steady-state heat transfer model of this application or various steady-state heat transfer models in the prior art, to determine the temperature change caused by the heat absorbed under steady-state conditions.
[0147]
[0148] The heat source is the heating element and heat exchange with the water flow, therefore:
