With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, industrial upgrading and policy support, pure electric vehicles have gained more and more favor from consumers. Compared with traditional fuel vehicles, electric vehicles have the advantages of fast torque response, stable power output, low noise, and significantly better control and driving performance than traditional vehicles. In addition, new energy vehicles do not emit pollutants during driving and do not cause air pollution.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0095] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments.

[0097] In the embodiments of the present application, the words "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or descriptions.

[0098] It should be noted that the user information (including but not limited to user device information, user personal information, etc.) and data (including but not limited to data used for analysis, stored data, displayed data, etc.) involved in this application are all information and data authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties, and the collection, use and processing of relevant data must comply with the relevant laws, regulations and standards of the relevant countries and regions, and provide corresponding operation entrances for users to choose to authorize or refuse.

[0099] At present, the electrification of automobiles has become an inevitable trend in the current industry. With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, industrial upgrading and policy support, pure electric vehicles have gained more and more favor from consumers. Compared with traditional fuel vehicles, electric vehicles have the advantages of fast torque response, stable power output, low noise, and significantly better control and driving performance than traditional vehicles. At the same time, new energy vehicles have no pollutant emissions and will not cause air pollution; however, the power battery of electric vehicles is greatly affected by battery temperature.

[0100] In the prior art, the charging and discharging power of power batteries of new energy vehicles at low temperatures will be lower than that at normal temperatures. The lower the battery temperature, the lower the battery charging power, the slower the battery charging speed, and the power battery is prone to lithium deposition when charged at high power at low temperatures, which increases the potential safety risks of the battery; at the same time, the internal resistance of the power battery increases at low temperatures, the battery discharge power decreases, and the vehicle's power performance becomes worse, which makes users have a very poor car experience in winter.

[0101] Therefore, how to control the thermal management of the power battery of new energy vehicles in winter so that the temperature of the power battery can be quickly raised to an appropriate range when users use the vehicle in a low temperature environment to increase the vehicle's power is the problem that needs to be solved at present.

[0102] In response to the above problems, the present application provides a control method for battery thermal management.

[0103] First, the implementation scenarios involved in this application are described.

[0104] New energy technology is the pillar of high technology, including nuclear energy technology, solar energy technology, coal-fired, magnetohydrodynamic power generation technology, geothermal energy technology, ocean energy technology, etc. Among them, nuclear energy technology and solar energy technology are the main symbols of new energy technology. The development and utilization of nuclear energy and solar energy have broken the traditional energy concept dominated by oil and coal, and created a new era of energy. With the continuous improvement of global environmental awareness, new energy vehicles, as an environmentally friendly, low-carbon and energy-saving mode of transportation, have gained more and more favor from consumers.

[0105] In the prior art, most new energy vehicles use power batteries to power the vehicle, but the power batteries of new energy vehicles are greatly affected by the battery temperature. In a low temperature environment, the charging power will be reduced for charging and discharging, resulting in a significant reduction in the charging speed and vehicle power. Therefore, according to the actual driving conditions of the vehicle, the temperature of the power battery needs to be adjusted. The vehicle involved in this application can be, for example, a new energy vehicle equipped with a battery thermal management function.

[0106] For example, when a new energy vehicle is driving in a low-temperature environment, the operating temperature of the battery cannot meet the maximum charge and discharge power of the battery, thereby reducing the power of the new energy vehicle. At this time, it is necessary to heat the battery according to the operating temperature to achieve the purpose of improving the battery working efficiency.

[0107] The control method of battery thermal management provided by the present application, before the vehicle arrives at the charging pile, the method corrects the remaining power of the battery according to the current loss degree of the power battery, and then determines whether to heat the power battery according to the corrected remaining power and the power consumption value of the charging pile; after determining to heat the power battery, according to the current temperature of the power battery, the most suitable charging temperature of the current power battery, the heat pump heating rate, the motor heating rate and the PTC heating rate, the start time of the heat pump heating, the PTC heating and the motor heating is intelligently controlled, so that the battery temperature of the power battery can be heated to a suitable temperature before the vehicle arrives at the charging station, and the start time and the start time length of the heat pump, PTC and motor heating are reasonably controlled. The method can more accurately determine whether the power battery is heated in a low temperature environment, reduce the danger of high-power charging of the power battery in a low temperature environment, improve the power of the vehicle, optimize the thermal management function of the vehicle in a low temperature environment, not only improve the working efficiency of the power battery during charging and discharging, but also improve the user's winter car experience.

[0108] The technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0109] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the process of the battery thermal management control method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 1 The execution subject of this embodiment may be, for example, a battery management system (BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, hereinafter referred to as "BMS"), such as Figure 1 As shown, the battery thermal management control method provided in this embodiment includes:

[0110] S101: Obtaining target charging pile information of a vehicle, operating parameters of the vehicle, and battery loss parameters of a power battery.

[0111] Among them, the target charging pile information includes: the distance information between the vehicle and the target charging station and the maximum charging power of the target charging station, the operating parameters are used to indicate the data information that can be detected during the operation of the vehicle, and the battery loss parameters are used to indicate the health of the power battery.

[0112] It can be understood that the operating parameters are data information about the power battery that can be detected during the operation of the current vehicle, and the data information is data that changes continuously as the vehicle's driving time increases; the operating parameters include: the real-time energy consumption of the vehicle, the current operating temperature of the power battery, and the heating power of the power battery; the vehicle itself is equipped with a corresponding detection system that can detect the vehicle's operating parameters in real time, so the BMS can obtain the current vehicle's operating parameters in real time; the battery loss parameters are related to the current vehicle's service life, and the battery loss parameters can be detected by the vehicle's detection system. This embodiment does not impose special restrictions on the operating parameters.

[0113] According to the current destination of the vehicle, that is, the target charging pile, different driving routes can be provided for the user. According to the driving route currently determined by the user, the distance information between the current vehicle and the target charging station can be obtained; the distance information can be obtained through the positioning system configured in the current vehicle, and the positioning system can reflect the distance information between the current vehicle and the target charging pile in real time; the maximum charging power is the maximum charging power that can be provided for the vehicle's power battery in the target charging station currently determined by the user, and the maximum charging power matches the charging power of the current power battery, thereby providing the user with a fast charging experience and improving the user's usage experience.

[0114] Through the detection system set up by the vehicle itself, the BMS obtains the current vehicle operating parameters and the battery loss parameters of the power battery in real time, and obtains the corresponding distance parameters through the positioning system configured in the current vehicle and the target charging pile selected by the user.

[0115] For example, the operating parameters obtained by BMS include: the real-time energy consumption of the current vehicle is 0.15 degrees / km, the heat generation power of the power battery can be 1kw, and the current operating temperature of the current power battery can be detected to be 5°C; the battery loss parameter of the current vehicle is 5 years, the distance information between the vehicle and the target charging pile is 40km, and the maximum charging power of the target charging pile is 120kw.

[0116] S102: Determine a first power consumption of the vehicle when it reaches the target charging pile according to the operating parameter and the battery loss parameter.

[0117] The first power loss is used to indicate the actual power consumed by the power battery when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile.

[0118] It can be understood that the battery loss parameter essentially reflects the current energy storage state of the power battery. The battery loss parameter reflects the actual energy storage situation of the power battery through the length of time the power battery continues to be used. Therefore, it can be determined that there is a correlation between the battery loss parameter and the service life of the power battery.

[0119] According to the currently determined distance parameter and the real-time energy consumption of the vehicle, the two are calculated and processed to obtain the corresponding power battery power consumption; according to the currently obtained battery loss parameter, the relationship between the current power and the actual power storage of the power battery can be obtained. According to the correlation, the currently obtained power battery power consumption is processed to obtain the first power loss of the current vehicle when it reaches the target charging pile.

[0120] For example, if the current battery loss parameter of the vehicle is 5 years, the power battery's energy attenuation rate is 20%; the standard total power of the power battery when it leaves the factory is 100 kWh, then the current total power of the power battery is 100*(1-20%)=80 kWh; if the battery energy consumption is 0.15 kWh / km, the distance to the charging station is 40km, and the vehicle consumes 6 kWh of electricity when it reaches the charging station, the proportion of the power consumed by the vehicle to reach the charging station to the current total power is 6 / 80=7.5%, and the first power loss currently obtained is 7.5%.

[0121] S103: Determine, according to the operating parameters and the maximum charging power, an estimated temperature of the power battery and a charging temperature threshold of the power battery when the vehicle arrives at a target charging pile.

[0122] Among them, the temperature estimate is used to indicate the battery temperature of the power battery when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile, and the charging temperature threshold is used to indicate the corresponding operating temperature when the power battery of the current vehicle can reach the maximum charging power during the charging process.

[0123] It can be understood that during the driving process of the vehicle, the power battery can provide power for the vehicle to enable it to drive normally; when the power battery provides electricity for the vehicle to drive, the power battery continues to discharge, and the discharge current will cause the temperature of the power battery to rise. At this time, the power that causes the power battery's own temperature to rise during discharge is regarded as the heat power of the power battery.

[0124] After determining the heating power of the current power battery, the distance information between the current vehicle and the target charging station is determined according to the destination of the current vehicle, that is, the target charging station. Based on the current operating temperature of the power battery, after the current vehicle travels a corresponding distance at the heating power of the power battery, the operating temperature of the power battery is estimated to obtain an estimated temperature of the power battery when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile. According to the target charging pile in the target charging station currently selected by the user, the maximum charging power provided by the target charging pile to the user can be determined. According to the maximum charging power, the charging temperature threshold of the current power battery is determined, so that the charging efficiency of the power battery is improved during the charging process of the vehicle, and the time for the user to charge the vehicle is reduced.

[0125] It is understandable that when the power battery is charged at high power in a low temperature environment, it is easy for the power battery to deposit lithium, thereby increasing the danger of the battery; in addition, the internal resistance of the power battery increases in a low temperature environment, resulting in a decrease in the charging and discharging power of the power battery. Therefore, in order to reduce the safety hazards that exist when the vehicle is charged at the maximum charging power in a low temperature environment, and to ensure the charging efficiency of the vehicle, the operating temperature of the power battery needs to be adjusted to ensure that when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile, the operating temperature of the power battery is consistent with the operating temperature corresponding to the highest charging efficiency of the current vehicle.

[0126] For example, the heating power of the power battery can be 1kw, and the current operating temperature of the power battery can be detected to be 5°C. The current distance information between the vehicle and the target charging pile is 40km. After estimating the operating temperature of the power battery, the estimated temperature value T1°C is obtained; the currently determined maximum charging power of the target charging pile is 120kw, and the corresponding charging temperature threshold of the vehicle power battery can be 25°C.

[0127] S104: determining a target heating mode of the vehicle according to the first power loss, the temperature estimation value, and the charging temperature threshold, and controlling the vehicle to heat the power battery according to the target heating mode.

[0128] Among them, the target heating mode is used to instruct the power battery to be heated according to multiple heating modules configured inside the vehicle.

[0129] It is understandable that the power battery will reduce the charging power for charging and discharging in low and high temperature conditions, which will significantly reduce the charging speed of the power battery and the power of the vehicle. Therefore, the power of the vehicle can be improved by adjusting the temperature of the power battery to an appropriate range, thereby improving the user experience. However, when the battery thermal management function is turned on, it will consume the vehicle's energy storage and accelerate the energy consumption of the power battery. In order to ensure that the vehicle can travel at least a fixed distance when it arrives at the target charging station to prevent the vehicle from being unable to move in case of emergencies, it is necessary to reserve enough power for the current vehicle to travel a fixed distance.

[0130] The currently acquired operating parameters of the vehicle also include: the current standard power, which is used to indicate the power value displayed on the vehicle display interface; based on the first power loss required for the vehicle to reach the currently determined target charging station and the current standard power, the power of the vehicle after reaching the target charging station can be estimated; and it is determined whether the power can support the vehicle to travel normally after arriving at the target charging station; since the heating treatment of the power battery is also based on the power value of the vehicle, if the power value estimated based on the first power loss and the current standard power can support the vehicle to travel a fixed distance after arriving at the target charging station, it indicates that the current vehicle has excess power to support the heating treatment of the power battery; otherwise, it indicates that the current vehicle does not have excess power to heat the power battery.

[0131] After determining that the current vehicle has excess power to support heating of the power battery, determine the operating temperature of the power battery when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile, that is, the temperature estimate, based on the currently acquired temperature estimate, and compare the temperature estimate with the charging temperature threshold; based on the comparison result, it can be determined whether the current vehicle needs to start the heating module to heat the power battery; after determining that the power battery needs to be heated, match multiple heating modules based on the difference between the temperature estimate and the charging temperature threshold, and select a suitable heating mode from them, so that when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile, the operating temperature of the power battery is consistent with the charging temperature threshold, and determine the corresponding heating mode as the target heating mode of the current vehicle, and control the vehicle to heat the power battery according to the target heating mode.

[0132] For example, the fixed distance that the vehicle can travel after arriving at the target charging station is 20km, and the current real-time energy consumption is 0.15 kWh / km, then the actual power consumption is 3 kWh; if the current vehicle power battery requires 100 kWh to be fully charged, then the actual amount of power to be reserved should be 3%; if the estimated power value is greater than 3%, it means that the current power can support the vehicle to travel a fixed distance after arriving at the target charging station, and the power battery can be heated at this time; if the current vehicle is equipped with a first heating module and a second heating module, and the charging temperature threshold of the power battery of the current vehicle is 25°C, the currently acquired temperature estimate When it is T1℃ and T1℃<25℃, the temperature estimated values ​​corresponding to the heating treatment of the vehicle by the first heating module, the second heating module, and the first heating module and the second heating module are analyzed and processed respectively to obtain multiple temperature estimated values, which correspond to the first temperature estimated value, the second temperature estimated value and the third temperature estimated value respectively, wherein the first temperature estimated value is equal to 25℃, the second temperature estimated value is greater than 25℃, and the third temperature estimated value is greater than 25℃. At this time, the mode of heating the power battery with only the first heating module is determined as the target heating mode, and the vehicle is controlled to heat the power battery with the first heating module.

[0133] The control method of battery thermal management provided in this embodiment obtains the target charging pile information of the vehicle, the operating parameters of the vehicle, and the battery loss parameters of the power battery; determines the first power loss generated when the current vehicle reaches the target charging pile according to the operating parameters and the battery loss parameters; determines the temperature estimate and charging temperature threshold of the power battery when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile according to the operating parameters and the maximum charging power of the target charging pile; determines the target heating mode of the current vehicle according to the first power loss, the temperature estimate, and the charging temperature threshold, and controls the current vehicle to heat the power according to the target heating mode. This method can more accurately determine whether the power battery is heated in a low temperature environment, reduces the danger of high-power charging of the power battery in a low temperature environment, improves the power of the vehicle, and not only improves the working efficiency of the power battery during charging and discharging, but also improves the user's car experience in winter.

[0134] Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the process of the battery thermal management control method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 .like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment Figure 1 Based on the embodiment, the control method of battery thermal management is described in detail. The control method of battery thermal management shown in this embodiment includes:

[0135] S201: Acquire target charging pile information of the vehicle, operating parameters of the vehicle, and battery loss parameters of the power battery.

[0136] S202: Determine a first power consumption of the vehicle when it reaches a target charging pile according to the operating parameter and the battery loss parameter.

[0137] Steps S201-S202 are similar to the above-mentioned steps S101-S102 and will not be described in detail here.

[0138] S203: Determine a preset time for the vehicle to reach a target charging pile according to the distance information.

[0139] The preset duration is used to indicate the length of time required for the vehicle to travel from the current location to the target charging station.

[0140] It is understandable that the speed of the vehicle during driving will affect the speed at which the power battery consumes power. Therefore, in the process of obtaining the operating parameters of the power battery, the current driving speed of the vehicle can also be obtained.

[0141] Based on the distance information between the current vehicle and the target charging pile and the current vehicle's driving speed, the two are calculated and processed to determine the length of time it takes for the vehicle to reach the target charging pile, that is, to obtain the preset time it takes for the vehicle to reach the target charging pile.

[0142] For example, the distance between the current vehicle and the target charging pile is 40 km, and the current vehicle's driving speed is 50 km / h. After calculation, it can be obtained that the preset time for the current vehicle to reach the target charging pile is 0.8 h.

[0143] S204: Determine the amount of heat generated by the battery when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile according to the preset time and heating power.

[0144] Among them, the heat generation power is used to indicate the power of the power battery itself causing heat generation when the power battery continuously discharges to provide power for the vehicle. The heat generated by the battery is used to indicate the heat value generated by the heat generation power when the power battery is discharged.

[0145] Based on the preset time for the current vehicle to reach the target charging pile and the heat power generated by the vehicle during the driving process to reach the target charging pile, the two are calculated and processed to determine the heat generated by the battery when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile.

[0146] For example, the current power battery heat generation power is 1kw, and the preset time for the current vehicle to reach the target charging pile is 0.8h. Then the heat generated by the battery when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile is 0.8kwh.

[0147] S205: Determine an estimated temperature of the power battery when the vehicle arrives at a target charging pile according to the current operating temperature and the heat generated by the battery.

[0148] Based on the current operating temperature and the heat generated by the battery, the heat generated by the battery is calculated and processed to obtain the temperature change value of the vehicle when it reaches the target charging pile, and the sum of the temperature change value and the current temperature is used as the estimated temperature of the current power battery.

[0149] For example, the current operating temperature is 5°C, and the battery generates 0.8 kwh of heat when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile. After calculation, the temperature change value corresponding to the 0.8 kwh of heat generated by the battery is ΔT°C. (ΔT+5)°C=T1°C is used as the estimated temperature when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile, that is, the obtained estimated temperature is T1°C.

[0150] S206: Determine a charging temperature threshold of the power battery according to the maximum charging power.

[0151] Among them, the charging temperature threshold is used to indicate the operating temperature corresponding to when the power battery of the current vehicle can reach the maximum charging power during the charging process.

[0152] According to the target charging pile in the target charging station currently selected by the user, the maximum charging power provided by the target charging pile to the user can be determined. According to the maximum charging power, the current charging temperature threshold of the power battery is determined, so that during the charging process of the vehicle, the charging efficiency of the power battery is improved, reducing the time the user spends charging the vehicle each time.

[0153] For example, the currently determined maximum charging power of the target charging pile is 120kw, and the charging temperature threshold of the power battery of the current vehicle may be 25°C.

[0154] S207: Determine the current actual power of the vehicle according to the battery loss parameter and the current standard power.

[0155] According to the battery loss parameters of the power battery currently obtained, they are analyzed and processed, and the current standard power is calculated and processed to obtain the relationship between the current actual power and the current standard power. According to the correlation, the current standard power is calculated and processed to obtain the current actual power of the vehicle.

[0156] For example, if the battery loss parameter of the current vehicle is 5 years, and the power attenuation rate of the power battery is 20%, the actual total power corresponding to the current vehicle's standard total power of 100% should be 80%; if the current standard power is 15%, 0.8×15%=12%, then the actual power of the current power battery is 12%.

[0157] S208: Taking the difference between the current actual power and the first power loss as the estimated remaining power of the vehicle.

[0158] Among them, the estimated remaining power is used to indicate the actual remaining power of the current vehicle after it reaches the target charging station.

[0159] The difference between the current actual power and the first power loss is taken as the estimated remaining power of the current vehicle, that is, the actual remaining energy in the power battery after the vehicle reaches the target charging pile.

[0160] For example, if the current actual power level is 12%, 12% - 7.5% = 4.5%, then the estimated remaining power level is 4.5%.

[0161] S209: Determine whether the estimated remaining power is less than a remaining power threshold of the vehicle.

[0162] The remaining power threshold is used to indicate the proportion of the driving range power in the actual total power, for example, it may be 4%.

[0163] The purpose of this step of judging whether the estimated remaining power is less than the vehicle's remaining power threshold is to ensure that the vehicle still has enough power to travel a fixed distance when it reaches the target charging station while heating the power battery.

[0164] It can be understood that when determining the current vehicle's remaining power threshold, since the total amount of energy stored in the power battery changes continuously as the battery's service life decays, the remaining power threshold will also change with the change in battery service life. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the corresponding remaining power threshold based on the actual total amount of energy that the current power battery can store. The actual threshold of the current vehicle's remaining power can be determined more accurately through the ratio of the cruising range power to the actual total power.

[0165] The power battery will reduce the charging power for charging and discharging in low and high temperature conditions, which will significantly reduce the charging speed of the power battery and the power of the vehicle. Therefore, the power of the vehicle can be improved by adjusting the temperature of the power battery to an appropriate range, thereby improving the user experience. However, when the battery thermal management function is turned on, it will consume the vehicle's energy storage and accelerate the energy consumption of the power battery. In order to ensure that the vehicle can travel at least a fixed distance when it arrives at the target charging station to prevent the vehicle from being unable to move in case of emergencies, it is necessary to reserve enough power for the current vehicle to travel a fixed distance.

[0166] If the estimated remaining power is less than the vehicle's remaining power threshold, it means that the remaining power of the vehicle after arriving at the target charging station is not enough to support the vehicle to continue driving a fixed distance. At this time, the battery thermal management function cannot be turned on and the power battery cannot be heated.

[0167] If the estimated remaining power is not less than the vehicle's remaining power threshold, it means that the remaining power of the vehicle after arriving at the target charging station can support the vehicle to continue traveling a fixed distance. At this time, it is necessary to further determine whether the power battery should be heated based on the heat generation power of the power battery and the charging temperature threshold.

[0168] For example, if the estimated remaining power is 2.5%, and 2.5% is less than 4%, the remaining power of the vehicle after arriving at the target charging pile cannot support the vehicle to continue traveling a fixed distance. At this time, the battery thermal management function cannot be turned on, and the power battery cannot be heated. If the estimated remaining power is 4.5%, and 4.5% is greater than 4%, it means that the remaining power of the vehicle after arriving at the target charging pile can support the vehicle to continue traveling a fixed distance. At this time, it is necessary to further determine whether the power battery should be heated based on the heat generation power of the power battery and the charging temperature threshold to ensure the minimum energy consumption of the vehicle.

[0169] S210: If the estimated remaining power is not less than the remaining power threshold of the vehicle, determine whether the temperature estimate is less than the charging temperature threshold.

[0170] S211: When the estimated temperature is less than the charging temperature threshold, sending a first operation request to the vehicle, and controlling the vehicle to start a battery thermal management function.

[0171] The first operation request is used to instruct to increase the temperature of the power battery.

[0172] The purpose of judging whether the estimated temperature value is less than the charging temperature threshold in this step is to determine whether it is necessary to turn on the heating module to heat the power battery.

[0173] It can be understood that the current operating environment of the power battery is a low temperature environment. If the battery thermal management function of the power battery is not turned on, the operating temperature of the power battery will only exist when the temperature estimate is equal to or less than the charging temperature threshold. Since the judgment condition for heating the power battery is that the temperature estimate is less than the charging temperature threshold, and the purpose of heating the power battery is to ensure that the temperature estimate is consistent with the charging temperature threshold, therefore, when the thermal management function of the power battery is not turned on, there is no situation where the temperature estimate is greater than the charging temperature threshold.

[0174] When the estimated remaining power is not less than the remaining power threshold of the vehicle, it can be determined whether to perform heating treatment on the power battery based on the relationship between the temperature estimation value and the charging temperature threshold.

[0175] If the temperature estimate is less than the charging temperature threshold, it means that when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile, the operating temperature of the power battery has not reached the most suitable temperature, and the current charging power of the power battery cannot be guaranteed to be consistent with the maximum charging power of the target charging pile, which may easily cause safety hazards during the vehicle charging process. At this time, a first operation request is sent to the vehicle. In order to meet the request to increase the operating temperature of the power battery, the vehicle is controlled to turn on the battery thermal management function, thereby increasing the operating temperature of the power battery.

[0176] If the estimated temperature is not less than the charging temperature threshold, that is, the estimated temperature is equal to the charging temperature threshold, it means that when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile, the charging temperature threshold of the power battery can be reached only by using the heat generated by the heating power. At this time, there is no need to turn on the vehicle's battery thermal management function, and the vehicle can continue driving while maintaining its current operating parameters.

[0177] For example, the temperature estimate is T1℃, and the charging temperature threshold is 25℃. If T1℃<25℃, it means that when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile, there is still a temperature gap between T1℃ and 25℃, and the operating temperature of the power battery cannot reach the most suitable temperature, which means that the current charging power of the power battery cannot be guaranteed to be consistent with the maximum charging power of the target charging pile, which may easily cause safety hazards during the vehicle charging process. At this time, the first operation request of "turning on the battery thermal management function" is sent to the vehicle, and the vehicle is controlled to turn on the battery thermal management function, thereby increasing the operating temperature of the power battery; if T1℃=25℃, it means that when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile, the heat generated by the heat pump heating power can meet the increase in the current operating temperature of the power battery, and the battery thermal management function of the vehicle does not need to be turned on.

[0178] S212: Obtaining a target heating power corresponding to the battery thermal management function.

[0179] The target heating power is used to instruct the heating module currently selected by the vehicle to heat the power battery so that the estimated temperature of the power battery reaches the charging temperature threshold.

[0180] After the battery thermal management function is turned on, the function can analyze and process the temperature difference between the current temperature estimate and the charging temperature threshold and the preset time for the vehicle to reach the target charging pile, and determine the heating power that makes the temperature estimate when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile consistent with the charging temperature threshold, that is, the heat value generated by running at this heating power for a preset time, which can compensate for the currently determined temperature difference, and determine this heating power as the target heating power.

[0181] Optionally, the acquiring a target heating power corresponding to the battery thermal management function includes:

[0182] Obtain a heating module for the power battery, the heating module comprising: a first heating module, a second heating module and a third heating module; determine a first heating power corresponding to the first heating module according to the first heating module; determine a second heating power corresponding to the second heating module according to the second heating module; determine a third heating power corresponding to the third heating module according to the third heating module; determine a target heating power corresponding to the battery thermal management function according to the first heating power, the second heating power, the third heating power and a preset duration.

[0183] Among them, the first heating power is greater than the second heating power, and the second heating power is greater than the third heating power; among them, the first heating power can be, for example, a heat pump heating power, the second heating power can be, for example, a PTC heating power, and the third heating power can be, for example, a motor heating power.

[0184] It is understandable that the heating power used by the heating module is variable, but the variable range of heating power corresponding to different heating modules is different; according to the actual operating conditions of the vehicle, different heating modules and corresponding heating powers are selected to achieve the purpose of heating the power battery, and the heating target is to make the temperature estimate consistent with the charging temperature threshold.

[0185] The current vehicle is equipped with a first heating module, a second heating module and a third heating module, and different heating modules have different heating powers. Since the heating powers of different heating modules are different, when heating the power battery, a heating module with a larger heating power is preferably used for heating, that is, the first heating module can be used for heating first; if the currently selected heating module cannot meet the heating demand of the power battery, the first heating module and the second heating module are turned on at the same time for heating, or the first heating module, the second heating module and the third heating module are turned on at the same time for heating, and the corresponding heating methods may include: heating with the first heating module, heating with the first heating module and the second heating module together, and heating with the first heating module, the second heating module and the third heating module together; according to the temperature difference between the temperature estimation value and the charging temperature threshold, the heat value that can be generated when the vehicle heats the power battery in different heating methods is determined from multiple heating modules; the multiple heat values ​​obtained are analyzed and processed to determine the heating module used by the vehicle when the temperature estimation value reaches the same as the charging temperature threshold when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile, and the heating power corresponding to the heating module is the target heating power.

[0186] Optionally, determining a target heating power corresponding to the battery thermal management function according to the first heating power, the second heating power and the preset duration includes:

[0187] According to the temperature estimation value and the charging temperature threshold, the temperature difference required by the power battery is determined; according to the temperature difference and the preset time, the target heat required by the power battery is determined; according to the first heating power and the preset time, the first heat generated by the first heating module within the preset time is determined, and it is judged whether the first heat reaches the target heat; if the first heat reaches the target heat, the first heat is determined to be the target heat; if the first heat does not reach the target heat, the second heat generated by the first heating module and the second heating module within the preset time is determined according to the first heating power, the second heating power and the preset time, and it is judged whether the second heat reaches the target heat; if the second heat reaches the target heat, the second heat is determined to be the target heat; if the second heat does not reach the target heat, the third heat generated by the first heating module, the second heating module and the third heating module within the preset time is determined according to the first heating power, the second heating power, the third heating power and the preset time, and the third heat is determined to be the target heat; according to the target heat, the target heating power corresponding to the battery thermal management function is determined.

[0188] It can be understood that the heating modules currently configured in the vehicle include: a first heating module, a second heating module and a third heating module, and the heating powers corresponding to different heating modules are, from large to small, the first heating power, the second heating power and the third heating power. When it is determined that the heat value generated by the first heating module for heating the power battery cannot reach the target heat, it is necessary to control the vehicle to use multiple heating modules to heat the power battery at the same time.

[0189] This embodiment does not impose any special restrictions on the heating modules configured inside the vehicle. This embodiment is only illustrated by taking the heating modules as including a first heating module, a second heating module and a third heating module.

[0190] Based on the temperature estimate and the charging temperature threshold, the two are calculated and processed to obtain the temperature difference required for the power battery when the vehicle arrives at the target charging pile; based on the temperature difference and the preset driving time of the vehicle, they are calculated and processed to obtain the corresponding heat value, and the heat value is determined as the target heat required for the power battery.

[0191] If the first heat reaches the target heat, it indicates that the first heating module can generate a heat value corresponding to the temperature difference that increases the temperature of the power battery within the preset time. At this time, the first heat generated by the first heating module operating at the first heating power within the preset time is determined to be the target heat.

[0192] If the first heat does not reach the target heat, it indicates that the first heating module cannot generate a heat value corresponding to the temperature difference that increases the temperature of the power battery within the preset time. At this time, according to the first heating power, the second heating power and the preset time, the second heat generated by the first heating module and the second heating module when they perform heating treatment together within the preset time is determined; and it is judged whether the second heat reaches the target heat.

[0193] If the second heat reaches the target heat, it indicates that the first heating module and the second heating module can generate a heat value corresponding to the temperature difference that increases the temperature of the power battery within the preset time. At this time, the second heat generated by the first heating module and the second heating module operating together with the first heating power and the second heating power within the preset time is determined to be the target heat.

[0194] If the second heat does not reach the target heat, it indicates that the first heating module and the second heating module cannot generate a heat value corresponding to the temperature difference that increases the temperature of the power battery within the preset time. At this time, it is necessary to determine, based on the first heating power, the second heating power, the third heating power and the preset time, whether the heat value generated by the vehicle heating the power battery with the first heating module, the second heating module and the third heating module at the same time within the preset time can reach the target heat, and determine the heat value as the third heat generated. At this time, the third heat can be used as the target heat.

[0195] According to the currently determined target heat, a heating module corresponding to the target heat can be obtained, and the target heating power corresponding to the battery thermal management function can be determined accordingly.

[0196] For example, the temperature estimation value may be T1°C, and the charging temperature threshold value may be 25°C. The two are calculated and processed, 25°C-T1°C=ΔT°C, and the temperature difference between the two may be ΔT°C. In addition, the operating temperature of the power battery may be increased by ΔT°C within 0.8h. After analysis and processing, the heat value corresponding to the increase of ΔT°C may be increased by (ΔQ)J. Then (ΔQ)J is used as the target heat, and the heat values ​​corresponding to different heating modules configured inside the vehicle are calculated. When the heat pump heating module is used for heating treatment, the first heat generated by the corresponding heat pump heating power is (ΔQ1)J. If (ΔQ)J=(ΔQ1)J, it indicates that the heat value generated by the heat pump heating module for heating treatment within 0.8h can meet the heat value corresponding to the temperature difference of the temperature increase of the power battery. At this time, (ΔQ1)J is used as the target heat. If (ΔQ)J>(ΔQ1)J, it indicates that the heat value generated by the heat pump heating module for heating treatment cannot meet the heat value corresponding to the temperature difference of the temperature increase of the power battery. At this time, it is necessary to determine the second heat generated by the heat pump heating module and the PTC heating module within the preset time length of 0.8h according to the heat pump heating power, the PTC heating power and the preset time length of 0.8h, and the second heat is (ΔQ2)J; if (ΔQ)J=(ΔQ2)J, it means that the heat value generated by the heat pump heating module and the PTC heating module for joint heating treatment can meet the heat value corresponding to the temperature difference generated when the temperature of the power battery rises, and at this time (ΔQ2)J is used as the target heat; if (ΔQ)J>(ΔQ2)J, it means that the heat value generated by the heat pump heating module and the PTC heating module for joint heating treatment cannot meet the heat value corresponding to the temperature difference generated when the temperature of the power battery rises, and at this time, it is necessary to turn on the heat pump heating module, the PTC heating module and the motor heating module at the same time to heat the power battery, and the heat value (ΔQ3)J generated by the vehicle using the heat pump heating module, the PTC heating module and the motor heating module to heat the power battery at the same time is used as the target heat. If the currently acquired target heat is (ΔQ1) J, the corresponding heating module is a heat pump heating module, and the heating power corresponding to the heat pump heating module is used as the target heating power.

[0197] S213: Determine a target heating mode for operating the battery thermal management function according to the target heating power.

[0198] S214: Controlling the vehicle to heat the power battery according to the target heating mode.

[0199] It can be understood that there is a correlation between the target heating power and the target heating mode; when the vehicle heats the power battery with different heating powers, the operating temperature of the power battery will also change differently. Since the vehicle is equipped with multiple heating modules, and each heating module can adjust its own heating power, the range of different heating powers corresponding to each heating module is different; in order to meet the different heating needs of the vehicle during driving, different heating modes are set in the battery thermal management function. Different heating modes correspond to the use of different heating modules, and also correspond to different heating powers. According to different vehicle usage conditions, different heating modules and heating powers can be selected to heat the power battery, and then different heating modes can be determined according to different heating powers and heating modules.

[0200] According to the currently determined target heating power, it is matched with the heating mode set in the battery thermal management function, and the matching heating mode is used as the target heating mode for heating the power battery at that time, and the vehicle is controlled to heat the power battery according to the target heating mode.

[0201] For example, according to the currently determined target heating power being the heating power corresponding to the first heating module, the corresponding heating mode set in the battery thermal management function can be obtained as: "Turn on the first heating module", then the vehicle is controlled to turn on the first heating module to heat the power battery.

[0202] Optionally, after controlling the vehicle to heat the power battery according to the target heating mode, the method further includes:

[0203] Re-acquire the estimated remaining power of the vehicle, and determine whether the estimated remaining power is less than the remaining power threshold of the vehicle; when the estimated remaining power is less than the remaining power threshold, send a second operation request to the vehicle, and control the vehicle to turn off the battery thermal management function.

[0204] The second operation request is used to instruct to stop heating the power battery.

[0205] The purpose of this step of judging whether the estimated remaining power is less than the vehicle's remaining power threshold is to ensure that the vehicle still has enough power to travel a fixed distance when it reaches the target charging station while heating the power battery.

[0206] If the estimated remaining power is less than the vehicle's remaining power threshold, it means that the remaining power of the vehicle after arriving at the target charging station is not enough to support the vehicle to continue traveling a fixed distance. At this time, a second operation request is sent to the vehicle, and the vehicle is controlled to turn off the battery thermal management function and stop heating the power battery.

[0207] If the estimated remaining power is not less than the vehicle's remaining power threshold, it means that the remaining power of the vehicle after reaching the target charging station can support the vehicle to continue traveling a fixed distance. At this time, the current state of heating the power battery can be kept unchanged.

[0208] For example, if the estimated remaining power is 2.5%, 2.5%<4%, then the remaining power of the vehicle after arriving at the target charging pile cannot support the vehicle to continue traveling a fixed distance. At this time, a request to "turn off the battery thermal management function" is sent to the vehicle, and the vehicle is controlled to turn off the battery thermal management function and stop heating the power battery; if the estimated remaining power is 4.5%, 4.5%>4%, it means that the remaining power of the vehicle after arriving at the target charging pile can support the vehicle to continue traveling a fixed distance. At this time, the current heating power is kept unchanged and the power battery continues to be heated.

[0209] The battery thermal management control method provided in the present embodiment obtains the target charging pile information of the vehicle, the operating parameters of the vehicle and the battery loss parameters of the power battery; determines the first power loss generated when the current vehicle reaches the target charging pile according to the operating parameters and the battery loss parameters; determines the preset time when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile and the heat generated by the battery of the vehicle within the preset time according to the distance information between the vehicle and the target charging pile and the heating power of the power battery; determines the estimated temperature of the power battery when the vehicle reaches the target charging pile according to the heat generated by the battery and the current operating temperature; determines the charging temperature threshold of the power battery according to the maximum charging power of the target charging pile; determines the current actual power of the vehicle according to the battery loss parameters and the current standard power , and take the difference between the current actual power and the first power loss as the estimated remaining power of the vehicle; determine whether the estimated remaining power is less than the remaining power threshold of the current vehicle; if the estimated remaining power is not less than the remaining power threshold of the vehicle, determine whether the temperature estimate is less than the charging temperature threshold; when the temperature estimate is less than the charging temperature threshold, send a first operation request to the vehicle, and control the vehicle to turn on the battery thermal management function; obtain different heating powers corresponding to different heating modules inside the vehicle, and determine the target heating power corresponding to the battery thermal management function according to the different heat values ​​corresponding to the different heating powers, and determine the target heating mode corresponding to the target heating power of the battery thermal management function, and control the current vehicle to heat the power according to the target heating mode. This method can more accurately determine whether the power battery is heated in a low temperature environment, reduce the danger of high-power charging of the power battery in a low temperature environment, improve the power of the vehicle, optimize the thermal management function of the vehicle in a low temperature environment, not only improve the working efficiency of the power battery during charging and discharging, but also improve the user's car experience in winter.

[0211] The acquisition module 301 is used to obtain the target charging pile information of the vehicle, the operating parameters of the vehicle and the battery loss parameters of the power battery.
