Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas exploration and development, and in particular to an underground high-temperature lithium battery capacity monitoring circuit and method. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of logging instruments on the market, with outer diameters ranging from 20mm to 172mm, temperature series from 155℃ to 230℃, and pressure indicators from 100MPa to 180MPa. Different series of instruments are divided into cable logging and cableless logging. The former uses ground power supply, and supplies power to downhole instruments in the form of AC or DC through cables of 5000m to 7000m, or even more than 10,000m; the latter uses downhole batteries and downhole mud generators to power downhole instruments.

[0003] The temperature of downhole instruments rises by more than 30°C for every 1,000-meter increase in ambient temperature. The deeper the well goes, the higher the temperature will be. The entire industry at home and abroad currently uses lithium batteries or lithium polymer batteries with good temperature performance, large capacity and stable voltage output. Currently, logging while drilling, through-hole logging and direct-push logging all use this type of battery to power downhole instruments. As the logging depth increases, the temperature limit of the battery is difficult to meet the temperature at the depth of the well, and lithium batteries will experience over-temperature and over-current explosion accidents. In order to better solve the problem of excessive temperature use, a thermos bottle + battery is generally used to ensure that the battery temperature does not exceed the battery limit temperature within the rated working time.

[0004] From the perspective of battery use, after battery logging is completed, there is currently no equipment or means that can directly and accurately detect the battery capacity, and the user cannot be informed of the remaining battery capacity and usage records. As a result, the user dare not easily use the battery for re-logging to avoid the situation where insufficient power is required during the re-use process and the logging is delayed. This way of using batteries has great uncertainty and waste, and a means and method for battery capacity detection is urgently needed.

[0005] Due to the voltage output characteristics of lithium batteries, it is impossible to detect the remaining capacity from the output voltage of lithium batteries alone, because there is no linear relationship between battery capacity and output voltage and current, and it is impossible to accurately calibrate, so the battery capacity can only be indirectly detected by battery monitoring methods. Before leaving the factory, battery manufacturers will perform temperature tests and discharge tests on batteries to detect and calculate the factory capacity of this model of battery; if the battery's operating temperature, voltage, and current can be recorded in real time during the use of the battery underground, the battery's usage capacity can be calculated in real time. After the well logging is completed, the value is read, and then based on the battery's factory capacity, a more accurate remaining capacity can be easily obtained. The on-site operation engineer can determine whether the battery can meet the next well logging requirements based on the remaining capacity, the operation time of the next well, and the operating power.

[0006] In summary, in the prior art, logging instruments cannot record parameters such as the output voltage, current, and temperature of the battery in real time, store the parameters in real time, and cannot determine whether the battery temperature may cause a battery explosion accident and damage downhole instruments.

[0065] Embodiment

[0066] For wireline logging tools, high-temperature batteries are essential and consumable. The annual output value of the domestic high-temperature downhole lithium battery industry alone is in the hundreds of millions. So far, the capacity monitoring and detection of downhole high-temperature lithium batteries have not been applied and promoted. The on-site construction and the handling of high-temperature batteries still rely on experience to decide whether to continue using or scrap the battery or for the manufacturer to recycle, lacking effective battery capacity detection and monitoring means.

[0067] The basic requirements for downhole high-temperature battery capacity monitoring include the acquisition and calculation of output voltage, current, and battery temperature. After expanding the functions, overcurrent and over-temperature protection functions of the battery can be realized.

[0068] As Figure 1 shown is the hardware block diagram of the battery capacity monitoring circuit. The part in the left dashed box is the digital signal control circuit, and the part in the right dashed box is the analog signal conditioning circuit.

[0069] The EEPROM is used to store the usage environment and initialization information of this capacity monitoring circuit, mainly including parameter information such as the set operating voltage value of the instrument, the battery current protection threshold, the battery temperature protection threshold, the factory parameters, and the FLASH storage status, etc.; the on-board temperature chip is used for the digital thermometer to measure the real-time temperature of the circuit board; the CAN driver and software development module are used to receive and send commands and data, and realize communication and level isolation conversion with the instrument bus; the NAND FLASH storage is used to realize the real-time storage of the measurement data and capacity calculation data for battery capacity monitoring, which is readable and writable. Reading the stored data of the previous state is for calculating the battery capacity of this cycle; the timing chip is used to read and write the time information of the current state; the battery current switch switching module is used for battery temperature and current protection, and can realize current threshold, voltage threshold, and temperature threshold protection. Among them, voltage protection means that during the battery discharge process, the capacity becomes lower and lower, which will cause the battery output voltage value to become lower and lower. The voltage threshold will cause the power supply module to work abnormally. It is necessary to ensure that the output voltage can meet the working conditions of the power supply module, otherwise the entire circuit board will work abnormally and data will be lost; the ADC module is used to collect power supply voltage monitoring, battery output voltage, battery output current, and battery temperature signals; the power supply module is powered from the battery output and is converted into the power supply voltage required by this invention's circuit board.

[0070] As Figure 2 Shown is the hardware block diagram of the analog signal conditioning circuit, which mainly includes four parts of conditioning circuits. The battery temperature signal conditioning includes a three-wire thermocouple battery temperature sensor, which is converted into a differential pressure signal through a bridge circuit, sent to an instrumentation op-amp, and then sent to the corresponding ADC channel after low-pass filtering; the battery output voltage conditioning circuit includes a parallel voltage-dividing resistor network at the battery output terminal. After leading out the voltage signal, it is sent to the corresponding ADC channel after passing through an instrumentation op-amp and low-pass filtering; the battery output current conditioning circuit uses a series form to connect a current sampling resistor in series at the negative terminal of the battery output. The voltage sampling signal is led out from both ends of the sampling resistor and sent to the corresponding ADC acquisition channel after passing through an instrumentation op-amp and low-pass filtering; the power supply module voltage conditioning circuit is used to connect a parallel voltage-dividing resistor at the output terminal of the power supply module, lead out the power supply voltage monitoring signal, and send it to the corresponding ADC acquisition channel after passing through an instrumentation op-amp and low-pass filtering.

[0071] As Figure 3 Shown is the hardware block diagram of the battery current switch switching module, where the MCU is the main control MCU chip of this invention. It controls the JFET transistor through an isolation driver chip, and the JFET transistor is in a normally open state. This circuit is mainly used for switching the battery output during battery current protection, voltage protection, and temperature protection.

[0072] It should be noted that the downhole battery actually refers to a battery pack, which is composed of high-temperature lithium batteries connected in series one by one to form a downhole high-temperature battery. In this invention, the word "battery" specifically refers to the battery pack in this figure.

[0073] As shown Figure 4 in the schematic diagram of the installation of the temperature probe on the battery case, where Battery 1, Battery 2, Battery n-1, and Battery n refer to the battery pack composed of n single batteries connected in series for the downhole high-temperature battery; the PT100 thermocouple is the thermocouple attached to the battery case, and the three-wire thermocouple lead is used as the battery temperature probe.

[0074] As shown Figure 5 in the stored data format, where the time is the year, month, day, hour, minute, and second after the time is set; the counting time refers to the timing generated by the MCU itself, which is used as a double backup of the time tag, mainly to prevent time errors caused by the time of the time-setting chip due to battery shutdown; the battery voltage is the battery output voltage value; the battery current is the battery output current value; Capacity 1 is a way of expressing the battery capacity, with the unit of mAh; Capacity 2 is another way of expressing the battery capacity, with the unit of mWh; the power supply monitoring is the voltage measurement value of the power supply module; the on-board temperature is the temperature measurement value of the circuit board; the battery temperature is the monitoring value of the lithium battery case.

[0075] As shown Figure 6 in the software flow chart of the battery capacity monitoring. After the circuit is powered on, command detection is performed to determine whether there is a start time-setting command or a read / erase FLASH command. The former is mainly used to perform GPS time setting on the circuit and write the latest time information into the time-setting chip. The time-setting chip uses this time as the starting time for timing, which is used as the starting timing time for the downhole circuit to work. The latter is mainly used to read the stored capacity data of the battery capacity and the battery process monitoring data after the logging instrument finishes logging; after normal operation, start to read the last storage state in the FLash, then start the ADC sampling by the timer, and after sampling, perform threshold judgment. When the voltage threshold, current threshold, and battery temperature threshold exceed the threshold, the battery output is turned off; under normal circumstances, continue to calculate the battery capacity and pack the data for writing into the FLash.

[0076] The calculation formula for the battery capacity is as follows:

[0077] Battery Capacity 1: mAh i =|I i ×(t i -t i-1 ) / 60]+mAh i-1

[0078] Battery Capacity 2: mWh 1 =[U i ×I i ×(t i -t i-1 ) / 60]+mWh i-1

[0079] mAh i Is the battery consumption capacity for the current cycle, unit mAh

[0080] I i Is the measured value of the battery output current for the current cycle, unit A

[0081] t i Is the time for the current cycle, unit min

[0082] t i-1 Is the time of the previous cycle of the current time, unit min

[0083] mAh i-1 Is the battery output consumption capacity of the previous cycle of the current time, unit mAh

[0084] mWh i Is another expression of the battery consumption capacity for the current cycle, unit mWh

[0085] U i Is the measured value of the battery output voltage for the current cycle, unit V

[0086] mWh i-1 Is another expression of the battery consumption capacity of the previous cycle of the current time, unit mWh

[0087] It should be noted that the MCU stores capacity data in units of min, and the ADC also outputs the sampling average value in units of min.
