[0030] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a control method for a coordinated control system of a marine power lithium battery device, comprising the following steps:

[0031] Step 1: System startup

[0032] The system is powered on and the driver initialization is performed, including all peripherals; each main control component simultaneously performs an insulation self-test and data initialization, including the initialization assignment of structure data and the assignment of default parameters;

[0033] Step 2: Task Scheduling

[0035] Step 3: Insulation resistance self-test

[0036] Before the system task is executed, the master control component sends a command to the main control component to poll multiple battery clusters for detection and perform insulation resistance detection again to confirm that the battery terminal insulation is good; otherwise, the system automatically enters the alarm processing and executes step 6;

[0037] Step 4: The system runs automatically

[0038] The system automatically executes according to the task thread, including data collection, data analysis and processing, external command response, and alarm processing; when an external command is received, step five is executed; when a fault occurs during system operation, the sound and light alarm sounds an alarm, and step six is ​​executed; otherwise, this step is executed repeatedly;

[0039] The data acquisition operation specifically includes: the acquisition module executes the data acquisition thread, collects data from the data signal source and stores the data in the memory of the master control component, the main control component and the slave control component respectively;

[0040] Data processing and analysis operations specifically include:

[0041] Perform conventional calculations of the maximum, minimum, and average values ​​of temperature, voltage, and current data, and estimate the battery state of charge (SOC) and health state (SOH). Use a combination of ampere-hour integration and battery SOC-OCV curve to estimate the battery state of charge (SOC) to improve the estimation accuracy. This is used as a basis for determining whether the battery should be charged and discharged. When the battery state of charge (SOC) is less than 25%, charging is required. Estimate the health state (SOH) value based on the cumulative number of charging and discharging cycles, and compare it with the total number of battery cycles as a basis for determining whether the power battery needs to be replaced. If the health state (SOH) value is less than 80%, the battery needs to be replaced.

[0042] The data interaction operation specifically includes: according to their respective threads, the slave control component regularly uploads data to the master control component, the master control component regularly uploads data to the master control component, and the master control component regularly sends data to the PMS power management system;

[0043] Step 5: External command response

[0044] (1) Receive commands from the human-machine interface HMI or button control input, including start charging, start discharging, stop charging, stop discharging, and send them to the controller in a communication manner and respond to execution;

[0045] (2) The PMS power management system regularly monitors the battery charge status. When an abnormal situation (such as low battery) is encountered, the system will give a return suggestion based on navigation needs;

[0046] Step 6: Troubleshooting

[0047] The data collected by the master control component, main control component and slave control component are analyzed and compared with the three-level corresponding threshold values ​​stored in the storage module. If the corresponding set threshold range is met, the corresponding operation is performed: Level 1 alarm: sound and light alarm, warning; Level 2 alarm: sound and light alarm, reducing the operating power; Level 3 alarm: sound and light alarm, disconnecting the high-voltage relay, shutting down;

[0048] Step 7: Power off the system

[0049] System power-off judgment, if power-off, end system operation; otherwise, jump to step 3.

[0050] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0051] (1) Based on the three-level control mode of general control, master control and slave control, this system considers the coordinated control of the whole ship power system and develops a coordinated control system for marine power lithium battery devices. Through the strategy of internal classification and external coordination, it solves the problem of coordinated control and management of ship lithium battery groups and ensures that lithium battery devices provide guarantee for the safe operation of ships.

[0052] (2) This system is equipped with a modular data acquisition unit, which meets the needs of multi-type data or signal acquisition through the cooperation of different sensor devices and processing circuits. The system supports data processing of battery status, supports estimation of battery state of charge SOC / health state SOH (charging state (battery state of charge SOC) and operating state (health state SOH)) of the battery pack; supports acquisition and processing of real-time data information of slave controlled batteries through CAN; after processing, it realizes management and control of battery pack charging and discharging;

[0053] (3) The battery end and the load end use two-way total voltage detection, which is reliable and has small detection error. Through threshold comparison, it supports overvoltage and undervoltage protection.

[0054] (4) This system uses secondary insulation resistance detection. The main control component performs a self-test once when the system is turned on, and monitors again before the battery starts to charge or discharge. The main control component sends instructions to the main control component to poll multiple battery clusters for detection, so as to avoid using the main control component alone to perform insulation detection at the same time at a certain time, resulting in abnormal insulation values; BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The control unit B monitors the operation process of the lithium battery device A and uses the monitoring results as the operation instructions of the execution unit C to ensure the safe operation of the lithium battery device A.

[0068] The PMS power management system E has the ability to control the power and navigation status of the entire ship. As an external collaborative monitoring system for the lithium battery device A, it realizes information exchange and collaborative decision-making with the control unit B and the collaborative management module C1 through data communication. For example, it recommends power restrictions based on the battery charge state, or recommends return strategies in abnormal situations to ensure the power supply safety of the lithium battery device A and the navigation safety of the ship;

[0069] It also includes an interactive device 5 and a power supply unit 6. The interactive device 5 is used to control information display and realize human-computer interaction, including system parameter configuration, emergency shutdown, etc. The power supply unit 6 provides 24V working power supply and input protection for the control unit B;

[0070] like Figure 2 As shown, the control unit B realizes safe operation control of the lithium battery device A through data and signal acquisition, processing and processing result analysis. Its data and signals come from the data signal source 1. The data signal source 1 includes a combiner box component 11, a domain control box component 12, a high-voltage box component 13, a battery module 14 and a charging seat 15. The data signal source 1 is a data signal acquisition carrier of the acquisition module B2. The acquisition module B2 acquires data and signals from the data signal source 1 to provide system operation control data support for the control unit B.

[0071] The data acquisition module B2 includes an acquisition component 1 21, an acquisition component 22, an acquisition component 3 23, and an acquisition component 4 24, which respectively collect voltage, current, temperature, and input / output control DI / DO signals of the combiner box component 11, the domain control box component 12, the high-voltage box component 13, the battery module 14, and the charging seat 15;

[0072] The control module B1 is set to a three-level control mode, including a general control component 31, a main control component 32 and a slave control component 33; the lithium battery device A is equipped with a general control component 31, each lithium battery cluster A4 is equipped with a main control component 32, and each battery pack is equipped with a slave control component 33; the general control component 31 is arranged in the domain control box A2, including the controller PLC and its extended DI / DO module, CAN communication module, NTC sensor (PT100) temperature detection module; the data acquisition and data processing of the control unit B are automatically implemented through the program thread of the collaborative management module C1 of the execution unit C, which is divided into general control management 41, main control management 42, slave control management 43 and database 44, respectively implementing and operating the general control component 31, main control component 32 and slave control component 33, and the database 44 is used to store initial parameter data, collect and analyze data, and the control unit B issues execution instructions to the driving console panel C2 and the domain control box A2 panel C3 for prompts and alarms based on the data processing results, or operates the execution buttons on the driving console panel C2 and the domain control box A2 panel C3 to implement;

[0073] Data collection is periodically implemented by the program threads of the master control management 41, the main control management 42, and the slave control management 43. The data is stored in the data buffer area of ​​the respective controllers of the master control component 31, the main control component 32, and the slave control component 33. After secondary processing, it is stored in the database 44 for the PMS power management system E to call; the secondary processing includes data aggregation, single factor parameter extreme value calculation, average value calculation, battery state of charge SOC value estimation, health state SOH value statistics, and the collaborative management module C1 calculates the recommended power value allowed by the power battery according to the battery state of charge SOC value, temperature, and voltage parameters, and provides it to the PMS power management system E for power allocation, as follows:

[0074] First, calculate the battery capacity required for endurance

[0075] For the voyage (L) to be performed, the battery charge state after the subsequent voyage time T needs to be greater than the safety value S δ The formula is used to obtain the maximum battery capacity C that needs to be consumed within the subsequent flight time T. t :

[0076]

[0077] Where: SOC0 is the current battery state of charge, C t is the maximum battery capacity that needs to be consumed within the subsequent voyage time T, C is the total battery capacity, and the battery charge state after the subsequent voyage is completed must be greater than the safety value S δ , generally 25% is taken to ensure battery safety;

[0078] The battery capacity C required for the subsequent voyage tConverted into the corresponding total output power:

[0079] P r’ =U·C t (2)

[0080] Then, the recommended sailing power limit value P lim

[0081] The loads at the load end D include propulsion, daily use and other auxiliary equipment. The loads are divided into n independently controllable load units according to different uses, so that non-essential loads can be shut down according to the battery charge state, the total power output of the lithium battery device A can be controlled, and the recommended power limit can be effectively implemented, or in abnormal situations, the return strategy is recommended, as follows:

[0082] Define the working voltage of each independently controllable load unit as U i (V), current is I i (A), the mileage in time T (h) is L (Km);

[0083] Considering the variable speed characteristics of the ship (v i ), in order to improve the calculation accuracy, the differential idea is used to calculate the power consumed by each load unit and the total power within the range L / T. First, the power consumption calculation matrix of each load unit within a certain period of time is established:

[0084]

[0085] The above matrix represents the power consumed by the i-th load unit in the (j-1, j)th time; the row of the matrix corresponds to the i-th load unit. If the subsequent voyage T is divided into k time periods for calculation, the column of the above matrix corresponds to the power consumed in a certain time period;

[0086] Sum each row of the matrix to obtain the power consumed by the i-th load unit during the flight time T as P ij :

[0087]

[0088] According to model (2), the total power consumed by n load units during the voyage time T is calculated as P e :

[0089]

[0090] The working voltage of each load unit collected is U i (V) and the current is I i (A) The recommended sailing power limit value P based on models (2), (4) and (5) lim ;

[0091] If Pr≥Pe, take P lim =Pe;

[0092] If Pr≤Pe, turn off some non-essential loads in the load unit to satisfy: Pr≥Pe, to ensure that the battery charge state (current battery capacity) of the lithium battery system meets the requirements of different working conditions such as power limitation and abnormal return.

The detection circuit B21 includes a DI module for collecting input control signals arranged on the master control component 31, a signal processing circuit arranged on the master control component 32, and a voltage division detection circuit arranged on the slave control component 33;

[0094]

[0095]

[0098] The acquisition component 1 21 is a DI module, which is used for abnormal operation of the domain control box A2 relay / circuit breaker or thermal management signal acquisition. The acquisition component 2 22 is a combination of a Hall sensor and a detection circuit, which is used to detect the charging and discharging current of the main circuit of the high-voltage box; the acquisition component 3 23 uses the NTC sensor on the module and the voltage-dividing detection circuit combination of the slave control component 33 for charging and discharging monomer temperature detection. The acquisition component 4 24 is an NTC sensor, which is set in the charging seat and connected to the expansion module of the master control component 31, and is used to collect the charging seat temperature;

[0099] The slave control component 33 is used for battery cell voltage collection, temperature collection and voltage and temperature collection disconnection detection. The voltage and temperature channels save the collected results in the controller's data buffer area waiting for secondary data processing, or through CAN communication and / or RS485 communication, to achieve data interaction between the slave control and the master control.

[0102] The insulation monitoring module 323 is used for battery terminal insulation detection. When the device is turned on, the main control component 32 performs a self-test. To ensure good insulation at the battery terminal, the main control component 32 performs another test before the battery starts charging or discharging. The main control component 31 sends a command to the main control component 32 to perform polling tests on multiple battery clusters to avoid using the main control component 32 alone to perform insulation tests at the same time at a certain time, which may lead to abnormal insulation values.

[0103] The DI / DO module 3243 is provided with a multi-channel DI (input) detection circuit, which is connected to the controller 3241 through optical coupling isolation, and a multi-channel DO (output) dry contact is set to realize the closing control of the high-voltage relay in the charging and discharging process.

Use a combination of ampere-hour integration and battery SOC-OCV curve to estimate the battery state of charge (SOC) to improve the estimation accuracy. This is used as a basis for determining whether the battery should be charged and discharged. When the battery state of charge (SOC) is less than 25%, charging is required. Estimate the health state (SOH) value based on the cumulative number of charging and discharging cycles, and compare it with the total number of battery cycles as a basis for determining whether the power battery needs to be replaced. If the health state (SOH) value is less than 80%, the battery needs to be replaced.

[0117] The data interaction operation specifically includes: according to the respective threads, the slave control component 33 regularly uploads data to the master control component 32, the master control component 32 regularly uploads data to the master control component 31, and the master control component 31 regularly sends data to the PMS power management system E;

[0118] Step 5: External command response

[0121] Step 6: Troubleshooting

[0123] (1) Level 1 alarm: sound and light alarm, warning;

[0124] (2) Secondary alarm: sound and light alarm, reducing operating power;

[0125] (3) Three-level alarm: sound and light alarm, disconnection of high-voltage relay, and shutdown;

[0126] Step 7: Power off the system

[0127] System power-off judgment, if power-off, end system operation; otherwise, jump to step 3.
