[0047] The backplane power module 4 includes a plurality of power units, a power detection unit and a backplane slot, wherein the power unit and the power detection unit are arranged on the backplane slot; when the backplane power module 4 is in operation, the power detection unit detects the predicted power required by the charging vehicle, and controls the access of the power unit based on the predicted power;
[0048] When the liquid cooling radiator is running, the variable frequency fan controls the fan speed based on the real-time temperature collected by the temperature sensor, and uses the variable frequency fan to dissipate the coolant in the liquid cooling radiator, and the wind generated by the heat dissipation is discharged upward through the fan opening 7; wherein, the variable frequency fan is provided with a self-diagnosis unit for detecting whether the variable frequency fan has a fault;
[0049] When the cold plate liquid-cooled charging pile is in operation, the backplate power module 4 operates to charge the charging vehicle. At the same time, the liquid cooling pump 3 operates to transport the coolant in the liquid storage tank 2 through the liquid cooling pipe 5 in one direction. The one-way transportation is as follows: from the liquid storage tank 2 to the liquid cooling radiator, the liquid cooling radiator operates, and the coolant after heat dissipation is transported back to the liquid storage tank 2; wherein, when the temperature of the coolant meets the preset reflux temperature threshold, the coolant after heat dissipation is transported back to the liquid storage tank 2.
[0050] It should be noted that, in practical applications, the liquid cooling pipe 5 is arranged on both sides or one side of the back plate power module 4 to surround the back plate power module 4, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. Figure 1 In the figure, only a partial diagram of the liquid cooling pipe 5 is shown.
[0051] Based on the above, this embodiment utilizes the existing classic cabinet structure to rationally arrange components such as the liquid storage tank, liquid cooling pump, backplate power module, liquid cooling pipe, liquid cooling radiator, and variable frequency fan, thereby realizing efficient heat dissipation and charging functions; wherein, the liquid storage tank and liquid cooling pump at the bottom ensure the circulation of the coolant and provide power for heat dissipation; the backplate power module and liquid cooling pipe in the middle can accurately absorb heat; the liquid cooling radiator and variable frequency fan at the top work together to dissipate heat in time and ensure the benign circulation of the coolant; the power detection unit detects and predicts the power and controls the access of the power unit to realize intelligent charging; the self-diagnosis unit of the variable frequency fan can detect faults in time to ensure the safe operation of the equipment; the setting of the one-way coolant delivery path and the reflux temperature threshold optimizes the heat dissipation process; thereby effectively solving the heat dissipation problem of the charging pile as a whole, improving the charging efficiency, reducing the equipment failure rate, and extending the service life.
[0052] Specifically, the front panel of the cabinet 1 is provided with a touch operation screen, which is used for the interaction between the cold plate liquid-cooled charging pile and the user.
[0053] Based on the above, this embodiment uses existing interactive technology to set a touch operation screen on the front panel of the cabinet, which realizes convenient interaction between users and charging piles. Car owners can intuitively set charging parameters through the touch operation screen, such as selecting charging mode, setting target power, etc. At the same time, key information such as charging progress, power, and cost estimation can be viewed in real time, so that the charging process is clear at a glance. Thereby improving the user's charging experience and reducing operational errors. Moreover, the setting of the touch operation screen conforms to the operating habits of modern users, enhances the ease of use of charging piles, helps to increase the frequency of use and market acceptance of charging piles, and enables charging piles to better meet user needs in different scenarios.
[0054] Specifically, the power unit is provided with an independent plug-in interface, which is used to access the power unit. When the power unit is connected and running, the plug-in time of the power unit is collected. When the plug-in time is greater than a preset plug-in time threshold, the power unit is determined to be abnormal and reported; wherein, the plug-in time is based on the electrical connection time, which is the time to achieve electrical connection and complete self-test.
[0055] Based on the above, this embodiment realizes effective monitoring of the operating status of the power unit by setting an independent plug-in interface for the power unit and collecting the plug-in time and comparing it with the preset threshold. The setting of the independent plug-in interface facilitates the flexible access and replacement of the power unit and improves the flexibility of the power allocation of the charging pile. During access operation, the plug-in time is collected and compared with the threshold set based on the electrical connection time. If the plug-in time is too long, the power unit abnormality can be determined and reported in time, which is convenient for operation and maintenance personnel to quickly locate and solve the problem. This design can effectively avoid charging anomalies caused by power unit failure, ensure the stability and reliability of the charging process, reduce economic losses caused by equipment failure, and also improve the overall maintenance efficiency of the charging pile and reduce equipment downtime.
[0056] Specifically, the power detection unit identifies the vehicle type and power demand based on real-time detection of the charging vehicle and the corresponding battery management system;
[0057] The identification of the vehicle type can be obtained based on the vehicle identification code of the charging vehicle;
[0058] The identification of power demand is based on the battery current, battery capacity and power demand formula of the battery management system of the charging vehicle; wherein the power demand formula is:
[0059]
[0060] Among them, C t is the total capacity of the battery, C r is the remaining battery capacity, is the integral of the charging current I over the time [t0, t1], t0 is the charging start time, and t1 is the detection time.
[0061] Through the above, this embodiment realizes the accurate identification and demand analysis of charging vehicles. Accurate identification of vehicle types helps charging piles match more appropriate charging strategies and improve charging compatibility. Accurate calculation of power demand allows charging piles to intelligently allocate power according to the actual situation of the vehicle, avoid energy waste, and improve charging efficiency. For example, for vehicles of different models and remaining power, the power output can be adjusted as needed to meet the needs of fast charging and protect the battery. This accurate identification and demand analysis function enhances the versatility and adaptability of charging piles and optimizes the quality of charging services.
[0062] Specifically, the power detection unit calculates the predicted power based on the power demand and the power adjustment formula; wherein the power adjustment formula is:
[0063] P=β1*Q+β2*t+P b
[0064] Where t is the charging time and t = t1-t0, P bis the preset basic charging power, β1 and β2 are the regression coefficients related to power demand and charging time, and P is the calculated predicted power.
[0065] Based on the above, this embodiment uses the power adjustment formula to calculate the predicted power based on the power demand, thereby realizing the forward-looking allocation of charging power. By considering factors such as power demand and charging time, the power adjustment formula can more accurately predict the power required by the vehicle at different charging stages. Based on this prediction result, the charging pile can allocate power units in advance to make the charging process more efficient. For example, in the early stage of charging, the charging power is quickly increased according to the predicted power to shorten the charging time; when it is close to full, the power is adjusted to avoid overcharging and protect the battery. This not only improves the charging efficiency, but also improves the energy utilization efficiency, reduces unnecessary power loss, and at the same time extends the battery life, providing users with a better charging experience.
[0066] Specifically, the variable frequency fan uses the real-time temperature collected by the temperature sensor, and the preset temperature threshold divides the temperature of the cabinet 1 into different temperature intervals, including a low temperature interval, a medium temperature interval and a high temperature interval, and controls the fan speed based on the temperature interval.
[0067] Through the above, this embodiment realizes the intelligent adjustment of the fan speed. By dividing the temperature conditions into low temperature, medium temperature and high temperature intervals, the variable frequency fan can adjust the speed according to the temperature characteristics of different intervals. In the low temperature range, the fan runs at a lower speed, which can not only meet the heat dissipation requirements, but also reduce energy consumption and noise; in the high temperature range, the fan runs at high speed and quickly dissipates a large amount of heat; in the medium temperature range, the speed is flexibly adjusted according to the real-time temperature. This intelligent adjustment method can effectively maintain the internal temperature of the charging pile stable, ensure the normal operation of each component, improve the efficiency and reliability of the heat dissipation system, while reducing the operating cost of the equipment, and better meet the demand for low noise.
[0068] Specifically, controlling the fan speed based on the temperature range includes:
[0069] When in the low temperature range, heat is dissipated based on the preset low fan speed;
[0070] When in the high temperature range, heat is dissipated based on the preset high-end fan speed;
[0071] When in the medium temperature range, use the speed adjustment formula to adjust the fan speed. The speed adjustment formula is:
[0072]
[0073] Among them, n0 is the low-end fan speed, n1 is the high-end fan speed, T is the current temperature in the medium temperature range, T1 is the lower limit of the medium temperature range, T2 is the upper limit of the medium temperature range in the low temperature range, and n is the fan speed at the calculated temperature T.
[0074] Based on the above, this embodiment sets different fan speed control strategies for different intervals on the basis of the divided temperature intervals, thereby realizing refined heat dissipation control. In the low-temperature interval, a preset low-speed fan is used to ensure heat dissipation while reducing energy consumption and noise; in the high-temperature interval, a high-speed fan is used to ensure efficient heat dissipation and prevent equipment overheating. In the medium-temperature interval, the speed adjustment formula is used to dynamically adjust the fan speed according to the real-time temperature, so that the heat dissipation intensity is accurately matched to the actual temperature requirements. This refined control avoids frequent and large adjustments to the fan speed, extends the service life of the fan, further improves the stability and reliability of the heat dissipation system, effectively reduces the temperature fluctuations inside the charging pile, and ensures the stable operation and charging efficiency of the charging pile.
[0075] Specifically, the liquid cooling radiator is provided with cooling fins, and the distance between the cooling fins and the variable frequency fan is calculated based on the air outlet of the variable frequency fan, the wind speed at the fan outlet, the time required for the wind to reach the cooling fins from the air outlet, and the angle between the fan outlet and the normal direction of the cooling fins.
[0076] As a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the distance between the heat sink fins and the variable frequency fan is determined using a distance calculation formula, and the distance calculation formula is:
[0077]
[0078] Where v is the wind speed at the fan outlet, t α is the time required for wind to reach the heat sink fins from the air outlet, and sinθ is the sine value of the angle between the fan outlet and the normal direction of the heat sink fins.
[0079] Based on the above, this embodiment calculates and sets the distance between the cooling fins and the variable frequency fan, thereby optimizing the heat dissipation efficiency. By accurately calculating this distance, the wind blown by the fan can cover the cooling fins more evenly and efficiently, thereby enhancing the heat exchange effect. Reasonable distance setting can avoid wind turbulence or concentration of overheated areas caused by too close distance, and can also prevent poor heat dissipation caused by too far distance. The optimized layout improves the heat dissipation capacity of the liquid-cooled radiator, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the entire charging pile, ensuring that the equipment can operate stably during high-power charging, reducing charging failures caused by heat dissipation problems, and improving the reliability of the equipment.
[0080] Specifically, the self-diagnosis unit includes:
[0081] Collect the current, speed and temperature control effect feedback of the variable frequency fan during operation, and use the fault diagnosis formula to determine whether the variable frequency fan has a fault. If so, issue an alarm signal, otherwise continue to collect; the fault diagnosis formula is:
[0082]
[0083] Among them, I 风机 is the working current of the variable frequency fan, I 风机标准 is the standard current of the variable frequency fan, n is the operating speed of the variable frequency fan, n 标准 is the standard speed of the variable frequency fan, ΔT is the actual temperature control effect of the variable frequency fan, ΔT 预期 is the expected temperature control effect of the variable frequency fan, and F is the calculated fault index; when F is greater than or equal to the preset fault index threshold, it is determined that the variable frequency fan has a fault.
[0084] Through the above, this embodiment realizes real-time monitoring and fault warning of variable frequency fans. The fault diagnosis formula integrates multiple key parameters and can accurately evaluate the operating status of the fan. Once the fault index exceeds the preset threshold, an alarm signal is immediately issued to remind the operation and maintenance personnel to deal with it in time. This function can effectively prevent heat dissipation failure caused by fan failure, avoid damage to the charging pile due to overheating, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment. At the same time, real-time monitoring helps to detect potential fault hazards in advance, facilitates the arrangement of preventive maintenance, reduces equipment downtime, reduces operation and maintenance costs, and improves the availability and reliability of charging piles.
[0085] Specifically, the preset reflow temperature threshold includes:

[0087] The next heat dissipation is calculated based on the predicted power. The calculation is:
[0088] Q h =P*t 散热 *η
[0089] Where P is the predicted power, t 散热 is the time interval for the next heat dissipation, which is determined based on the historical operation data and charging mode of the charging pile. η is the heat dissipation efficiency, which is the efficiency of the charging pile converting electrical energy into heat and dissipating it based on the statistical analysis of experimental data. Q h Dissipate heat for the next time;
[0090] Based on Q h and the current temperature of the coolant T c Calculate the reflow temperature threshold, which is calculated as:
[0091]
[0092] Where m is the mass of the coolant, c is the specific heat capacity of the coolant, T r is the calculated reflow temperature threshold.
[0093] Through the above, this embodiment realizes precise control of coolant circulation. The next heat dissipation heat is calculated based on the predicted power, heat dissipation time interval and heat dissipation efficiency, and the reflux temperature threshold is calculated in combination with the mass and specific heat capacity of the coolant. When the coolant temperature reaches the threshold, reflux is performed to ensure that the coolant circulates at an appropriate temperature. This precise control can effectively maintain the heat dissipation performance of the coolant, avoid the coolant temperature being too high or too low affecting the heat dissipation effect, ensure the stable operation of the charging pile heat dissipation system, improve the stability and reliability of the charging process, and extend the service life of the equipment.
