[0022] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Instead, they are merely examples of devices consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0023] The vehicle thermal management energy arbitration control method, system, storage medium and vehicle of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the features of the following embodiments and implementations can be combined with each other.

[0024] The present application provides a vehicle thermal management energy arbitration control method. Figure 1 A flow chart of a vehicle thermal management energy arbitration control method according to an embodiment of the present application is disclosed. Figure 1 As shown, a vehicle thermal management energy arbitration control method according to an embodiment of the present application may include steps S1 to S8.

[0025] In step S1, the current status of each thermal management subsystem of the vehicle is obtained.

[0026] In step S2, the priority of each thermal management subsystem may be determined based on the current status of each thermal management subsystem acquired in step S1.

[0027] In step S3, the current vehicle scene is obtained.

[0028] In step S4, it is determined whether the current vehicle scene has entered the predetermined scene. If the result of the determination is "yes", the process proceeds to step S5. Otherwise, the process directly proceeds to step S6.

[0029] In step S5, when the current vehicle scene enters the predetermined scene, the priority of the corresponding thermal management subsystem can be scene compensated, so as to adjust the priority accordingly. After the priority of the corresponding thermal management subsystem is scene compensated, the process enters step S6.

[0030] In step S6, it is determined whether there is a conflict between the thermal management requests (cooling or heating requests) of multiple thermal management subsystems. If the result of the determination is "yes", the process proceeds to step S7.

[0031] In step S7 , when a conflict occurs in thermal management requests from multiple thermal management subsystems, priority arbitration may be performed on the priorities of the thermal management subsystems.

[0032] In an optional embodiment, the thermal management subsystems include batteries, electric drives, and passenger compartment. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of performing priority arbitration on the priorities of various thermal management subsystems according to an embodiment of the present application is disclosed. Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the priority arbitration of each thermal management subsystem in step S7 may further include steps S71 to S73.

[0033] In step S71, the numerical values ​​of the priorities of the various thermal management subsystems are compared to determine whether the numerical values ​​of the priorities of the various thermal management subsystems are equal.

[0034] When the result of the judgment in step S71 is that the values ​​of the priorities of the various thermal management subsystems are not equal, the process proceeds to step S72. In step S72, priority arbitration can be performed according to the magnitude of the values. The larger the value, the higher the priority.

[0035] When the result of the judgment in step S71 is that the priority values ​​of the thermal management subsystems are equal, the process proceeds to step S73. In step S73, priority arbitration can be performed according to the principle that the priority of the cabin is higher than the priority of the electric drive, and the priority of the electric drive is higher than the priority of the battery.

[0036] In some embodiments, the priority arbitration of each thermal management subsystem in step S7 may further include steps S74 and S75.

[0037] In step S74 , it is determined whether the priority values ​​of all thermal management subsystems are less than or equal to 2.

[0038] When the result of the judgment in step S74 is "yes", the process proceeds to step S75. In step S75, when the numerical values ​​of the priorities of all thermal management subsystems are less than or equal to 2, it means that the priorities of each thermal management subsystem are not very high, and the thermal management needs of each thermal management subsystem are not very urgent. Therefore, priority arbitration can be performed according to the principle of energy consumption priority at this time. When the result of the judgment in step S74 is "no", the process proceeds to step S71. That is to say, when the numerical values ​​of the priorities of all thermal management subsystems are not less than or equal to 2, the process proceeds to step S71 to determine whether the numerical values ​​of the priorities of each thermal management subsystem are equal.

[0039] In step S8, the components corresponding to the corresponding thermal management subsystem may be controlled to perform corresponding operations based on the arbitration result of step S7 to achieve corresponding control requirements.

[0040] In some embodiments, the vehicle thermal management energy arbitration control method of the present application may further include step S9. When the result of the judgment in step S6 is "no", the process proceeds to step S9.

[0041] In step S9, when the thermal management requests of multiple thermal management subsystems do not conflict, for example, when only a single thermal management subsystem has cooling or heating requirements, no arbitration is required, and the performance can be controlled according to the requirements of the thermal management subsystem.

[0042] The following will describe in detail how the present application prioritizes each thermal management subsystem and performs corresponding scenario compensation.

[0043] The following table 1 gives the priority judgment of electric drive and the compensation method of vehicle scenario:

[0044] Table 1

[0045]

[0046] The priority of the electric drive can be divided into multiple levels in advance based on the electric drive water outlet temperature and the vehicle speed, such as different levels 0 to 4 as shown in Table 1, wherein the larger the value of the level, the higher the priority.

[0047] The predetermined scene referred to in step S4 may include a competitive mode scene. When a signal indicating that the vehicle enters a competitive mode scene is received, the priority of the electric drive may be scene compensated. For example, in some sports car models, a competitive mode button is configured. When a signal indicating that the competitive mode button is pressed is received, it may be determined that the vehicle enters a competitive mode scene.

[0048] In some embodiments, when receiving a signal that the vehicle enters the competition mode, the priority of the electric drive can be increased by a predetermined value based on the original level. For example, the priority of the electric drive shown in Table 1 can be increased by 1 based on the original level.

[0049] Table 2 below gives the cabin priority judgment and vehicle scene compensation method:

[0050] Table 2

[0051] Air conditioning mode Cabin Priority I Scene Compensation Cabin Priority II Downtime 0 / 0 ventilation 0 / 0 Refrigeration 2 Rapid refrigeration 3 Heating 2 Rapid heating 3 Heating and dehumidification 2 Fogging risk 4

[0052] The cabin priority can be divided into multiple levels based on the air conditioning mode in advance, such as different levels of 0 to 2 as shown in Table 2, where the larger the value of the level, the higher the priority. For the shutdown and ventilation modes, the cabin priority is 0. For the cooling, heating and heating and dehumidification modes without the risk of fogging, the cabin priority is 2.

[0053] The predetermined scenes referred to in step S4 may include a rapid cooling scene, a rapid heating scene, and a fogging risk scene. When receiving that the vehicle enters the rapid cooling scene, the rapid heating scene, and the fogging risk scene, scene compensation may be performed on the priority of the cabin.

[0054] In some embodiments, when the vehicle enters a rapid cooling scenario and a rapid heating scenario, the priority of the cabin can be increased by a first predetermined value on the basis of the original level; when the vehicle enters a fogging risk scenario, the priority of the cabin can be increased by a second predetermined value on the basis of the original level, wherein the second predetermined value is greater than the first predetermined value. For example, as shown in Table 2, if the vehicle enters a rapid cooling scenario and a rapid heating scenario, the priority of the cabin is increased by 1 on the basis of the original level; if there is a fogging risk, the priority of the cabin is increased by 2 on the basis of the original level.

[0055] The priorities of batteries in different states may be divided into multiple levels in advance according to the states of the batteries, wherein the larger the value of the level is, the higher the priority is.

[0056] The predetermined scenarios referred to in step S4 may include short-distance power usage scenarios, long-distance vehicle usage scenarios, scheduled fast charging scenarios, low-power charging scenarios, and high-power charging scenarios. When receiving the vehicle entering short-distance power usage scenarios, long-distance vehicle usage scenarios, scheduled fast charging scenarios, low-power charging scenarios, and high-power charging scenarios, the priority of the battery in the corresponding state can be compensated for by scenarios.

[0057] When any of the following conditions is met, the vehicle is judged to be in a short-distance vehicle use scenario:

[0058] (1) Passengers make travel reservations through the vehicle screen, and the distance to the destination is ≤ the scheduled kilometers;

[0059] (2) The passenger uses the onboard map navigation and the mileage is ≤ the scheduled mileage;

[0060] (3) If the vehicle is powered on within the preset time (minutes), the vehicle is judged to have entered the short-distance vehicle use scenario. After the preset time (minutes), the vehicle is judged to have exited the scenario compensation and the priority is output according to the vehicle's normal strategy.

[0061] When any of the following conditions is met, the vehicle is judged to be in a long-distance vehicle use scenario:

[0062] (1) The passenger makes a reservation through the vehicle screen, and the distance to the destination is greater than the scheduled kilometers;

[0063] (2) The passenger uses the vehicle map navigation and the mileage is greater than the scheduled mileage.

[0064] The fast-charging reservation scenario refers to the scenario where the passenger navigates to the charging location through the in-vehicle map and reads the navigation estimate that the remaining time to reach the fast-charging pile is ≤15 minutes.

[0065] The low-battery charging pile search scenario refers to a scenario where the vehicle battery level (SOC) is lower than a predetermined percentage (S1).

[0066] The high-power charging scenario refers to the scenario where the charging power does not exceed 60kw (kilowatts) and the vehicle SOC ≥ the predetermined percentage.

[0067] In some embodiments, the battery status includes the status of driving discharge battery cooling, the status of AC slow charging battery cooling, the status of DC fast charging battery cooling, the status of driving discharge battery heating, the status of AC slow charging battery heating and the status of DC fast charging battery heating.

[0068] The following will introduce in detail how the present application divides the battery priorities under different states and performs corresponding scene compensation in conjunction with Tables 3 to 8.

[0069] The following table 3 gives the battery cooling priority judgment and vehicle scenario compensation method when the battery is in the state of driving discharge battery cooling:

[0070] Table 3

[0071]

[0072]

[0073] When the battery is in the state of driving discharge and battery cooling, the battery priority can be divided into multiple levels in advance based on the maximum temperature Tmax of the battery cell, such as 1 to 5 different levels shown in Table 3, where the larger the value of the level, the higher the battery temperature, the greater the safety risk, and the higher the priority. Level 1 means that the battery temperature is low and there is a small cooling requirement. Level 5 means that the battery temperature is extremely high and the battery temperature needs to be lowered as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the battery cell.

[0074] In some embodiments, when the battery is in a state of discharging during driving and cooling the battery, when a signal is received that the entire vehicle has entered a short-distance power usage scenario, the priority of the battery in this state can be reduced by a predetermined value based on the original level and not less than 1, for example, the battery cooling level after scenario compensation shown in Table 3 = Max (battery cooling level - 1, 1).

[0075] In some embodiments, when the battery is in the state of battery cooling while discharging during driving, when a signal is received that the entire vehicle has entered a scheduled fast charging scenario, the battery priority can be switched to the priority corresponding to the DC fast charging battery cooling state, and the priority can be switched to the low-power fast charging scenario in the "DC fast charging battery cooling"; if the maximum power of the fast charging pile can be identified, it can be switched to the fast charging scenario of the corresponding power range in the "DC fast charging battery cooling".

[0076] In some embodiments, when the battery is in a state of driving discharge and battery cooling, when a signal is received that the vehicle has entered a low-battery pile-seeking scenario, the priority of the battery in this state is reduced by a predetermined value based on the original level. For example, the cooling priority of the battery shown in Table 3 is outputted minus 1 based on the original level.

[0077] The following table 4 shows the battery cooling priority judgment when the battery is in the AC slow charging battery cooling state:

[0078] Table 4

[0079]

[0080]

[0081] When the battery is in the AC slow charging battery cooling state, the battery priority can be divided into multiple levels based on the battery cell maximum temperature Tmax in advance, such as 1 to 5 levels shown in Table 4, where the larger the level value, the higher the priority.

[0082] The following Table 5 gives the battery cooling priority judgment and vehicle scenario compensation method when the battery is in the DC fast charging battery cooling state:

[0083] Table 5

[0084]

[0085]

[0086] When the battery is in a DC fast charging battery cooling state, the battery priority can be divided into multiple levels in advance based on the charging power P and the battery cell maximum temperature Tmax, such as 2 to 5 different levels shown in Table 5, where the larger the level value, the higher the priority.

[0087] In some embodiments, when the battery is in a DC fast charging battery cooling state, when the charging power does not exceed a predetermined power threshold and the entire vehicle enters a high-power charging scenario, the priority of the battery in this state can be reduced by a predetermined value based on the original level and not less than 2, for example, the battery cooling level after scenario compensation shown in Table 6 = Max (battery cooling level - 1, 2).

[0088] The following table 6 gives the battery heating priority judgment and vehicle scenario compensation method when the battery is in the state of driving discharge battery heating:

[0089] Table 6

[0090]

[0091] When the battery is in the state of driving discharge and battery heating, the battery priority can be divided into multiple levels in advance based on the battery cell minimum temperature Tmin, such as 1 to 5 different levels shown in Table 6, where the larger the level value, the higher the priority.

[0092] In some embodiments, when the battery is in the state of battery heating while discharging during driving, when a signal is received that the entire vehicle has entered a short-distance power usage scenario, the priority of the battery in this state can be reduced by a predetermined value based on the original level and not less than 1, for example, the battery heating level after scenario compensation shown in Table 6 = Max (battery heating level - 1, 1).

[0093] In some embodiments, when the battery is in the state of battery heating while discharging during driving, when a signal is received that the vehicle has entered a long-distance use scenario, the priority of the battery in this state can be increased by a predetermined value not higher than 5 based on the original level. For example, the battery heating level after scenario compensation shown in Table 6 = Min (battery heating level + 1, 5).

[0094] In some embodiments, when the battery is in the state of battery heating while discharging during driving, when a signal is received that the vehicle has entered a scheduled fast charging scenario, the mode can be switched to the "DC fast charging battery heating state", and the battery priority can be switched to the corresponding priority under the "DC fast charging battery heating state".

[0095] The following table 7 shows the battery heating priority judgment when the battery is in the AC slow charging battery heating state:

[0096] Table 7

[0097] Minimum cell temperature Battery heating level 0℃<Tmin≤5℃ 1 -10℃<Tmin≤0℃ 2 -15℃<Tmin≤-10℃ 3 -25℃<Tmin≤-15℃ 4 Tmin≤-25℃ 5

[0098] When the battery is in the AC slow charging battery heating state, the battery priority can be divided into multiple levels in advance based on the battery cell minimum temperature Tmin, such as 1 to 5 different levels shown in Table 7, where the larger the level value, the higher the priority.

[0099] The following Table 8 gives the battery heating priority judgment when the battery is in the DC fast charging battery heating state:

[0100] Table 8

[0101]

[0102]

[0103] When the battery is in the state of DC fast charging battery heating, the battery priority can be divided into multiple levels in advance based on the battery cell minimum temperature Tmin, such as 1 to 5 different levels shown in Table 8, where the larger the level value, the higher the priority.

However, the predetermined scenarios described in the present application are not limited thereto. The predetermined scenarios of the present application may also include other unmentioned scenarios according to actual application requirements.
