Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle control, and particularly to a method, device, equipment and computer storage medium for controlling the power generation of a range extender. Background Art

[0002] The range extender is driven by an engine to generate electric energy for charging the power battery of an electric vehicle, thereby increasing the driving range. When the power battery has insufficient power, the range extender starts and generates electric energy for charging power compensation. When the battery power is low, the range extender will start and generate enough electric energy to meet the charging requirements of the power battery. The size of the charging power compensation depends on the remaining power of the power battery, the power generation efficiency of the range extender, and the driving conditions of the vehicle. In some cases, such as when going uphill or downhill with a full load / empty load, the power consumption of the power battery will increase. At this time, the range extender needs to increase the power generation power for greater charging power compensation. When going uphill or downhill with a full load / empty load, the braking energy recovery works, and the power of the power battery will instead increase. At this time, the range extender needs to reduce the power generation power to prevent overcharging, reduce the overall vehicle cruising range, and reduce the overall vehicle fuel economy.

[0003] The existing power compensation strategy of the range extender is relatively simple and direct, only judged according to the state of charge (SOC) of the battery, and does not fully consider the influence of the slope and vehicle weight changes on the power consumption of the battery on uphill and downhill roads under different driving modes, resulting in poor accuracy of the control system, lack of accuracy in controlling the battery SOC of the vehicle in the hybrid drive mode, and inability to achieve the target of drive power balance control.

[0037] Here, exemplary embodiments will be described in detail, and examples thereof are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. On the contrary, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0038] The block diagrams shown in the accompanying drawings are merely functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically independent entities. That is, these functional entities can be implemented in software form, or implemented in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or implemented in different networks and / or processor devices and / or microcontroller devices.

[0039] The flowcharts shown in the accompanying drawings are merely illustrative and do not necessarily include all content and operations / steps, nor do they necessarily need to be executed in the described order. For example, some operations / steps can be decomposed, while some operations / steps can be combined or partially combined, so the actual execution order may change according to the actual situation.

[0040] As used in this application, "a plurality of" means two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects and indicates that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally represents an "or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0041] The range extender is driven by an engine to generate electrical energy for charging the power battery of the electric vehicle, thereby increasing the driving range. When the power battery has insufficient power, the range extender starts and generates electrical energy for charging power compensation. When the battery power is low, the range extender will start and generate sufficient electrical energy to meet the charging requirements of the power battery. The magnitude of the charging power compensation depends on the remaining power of the power battery, the power generation efficiency of the range extender, and the driving conditions of the vehicle. In some cases, such as when going uphill fully loaded / empty, the power consumption of the power battery will increase, and at this time, the range extender needs to increase the power generation power for greater charging power compensation. When going downhill fully loaded / empty, regenerative braking works, and the power of the power battery will instead increase. At this time, the range extender needs to reduce the power generation power to prevent overcharging and reduce the overall vehicle cruising range and fuel economy of the vehicle.

[0042] The existing range extender power compensation strategy is relatively simple and direct, only judging according to the state of charge (SOC) of the battery, without fully considering the influence of the slope and vehicle weight changes on the battery power consumption on uphill / downhill roads under different driving modes, resulting in poor accuracy of the control system, lack of accuracy in the control of the battery SOC of the vehicle in the hybrid drive mode, and the inability to achieve the target of drive power balance control. Based on this:

[0043] Figure 1 The flowchart of the first embodiment of the range extender power generation control method provided by this application is shown. This method is executed by the range extender power generation control device. Please refer to Figure 1 as shown, and this method includes the following steps:

[0044] Step S110: Based on the current overall vehicle driving mode of the target vehicle, and in combination with the current SOC difference between the actual SOC and the target SOC of the target vehicle, determine the current power generation level of the target vehicle.

[0045] Among them, the target vehicle is defaulted to be a range-extended electric vehicle, and can also be selected according to actual situations without limitation here. The overall vehicle driving mode is determined according to the energy consumption method of the vehicle, including but not limited to: fuel priority driving mode, pure electric priority driving mode, and intelligent priority driving mode. The current overall vehicle driving mode is one of the fuel priority driving mode, pure electric priority driving mode, and intelligent priority driving mode, and is determined according to the actual selection operation of the user. The actual SOC (State of Charge) refers to the percentage of the current remaining battery power in its nominal capacity, usually displayed on the vehicle dashboard, and is used to reflect the true state of charge of the battery. The target SOC refers to the desired SOC value set to optimize the battery performance, extend the battery life, or meet the requirements of specific application scenarios. The current SOC difference is the SOC value obtained by subtracting the target SOC from the actual SOC. The power generation levels are default set to 0, 1, and 2, and can also be divided according to actual situations without limitation here. Under different overall vehicle driving modes, there are corresponding mapping (association) relationships between different SOC differences and power generation levels.

[0046] Step S120: Based on the current power generation level, the current required torque of the target vehicle, and the current vehicle speed value, determine the current basic power generation power of the range extender of the target vehicle.

[0047] Among them, the current required torque refers to the torque output required by the vehicle in the current state. The current basic power generation power refers to the power output that the vehicle can generate under the most basic operating conditions. Under different power generation levels, there are corresponding mapping (association) relationships between different required torques, vehicle speed values, and basic power generation powers.

[0048] Step S130: Based on the current power generation level, the current slope value, and the current vehicle weight level of the target vehicle, determine the current compensation power generation of the range extender, and obtain the current target power generation of the range extender according to the current basic power generation and the current compensation power generation, and control the range extender to generate power according to the current target power generation.

[0049] Among them, the slope value refers to the slope value where the vehicle is located, which can be collected by a slope sensor. The vehicle weight levels include: light load level, medium load level, and heavy load level. The current target power generation is the sum of the current basic power generation and the current compensation power generation.

[0050] In S130, specifically, based on the weight ratio of the actual load weight to the load-bearing weight of the target vehicle, determine the current vehicle weight level. Among them, the load-bearing weight is the theoretically maximum load-bearing weight of the vehicle, and the actual load weight is the actual load-bearing weight of the vehicle (such as collected by a pressure sensor). The vehicle weight level can be determined according to the ratio interval where the weight ratio is located. For example, if it is less than 50%, it is determined as the light load level; if it is 50%-75%, it is determined as the medium load level; if it is greater than 75%, it is determined as the heavy load level.

[0051] The technical solution of this embodiment can improve the accuracy of the range extender power generation control under different driving modes and working conditions of the vehicle, thereby improving the service life of the vehicle battery and enhancing the user's driving experience.

[0052] Figure 2 The flowchart of the second embodiment of the range extender power generation control method provided by the present application is shown. This method is executed by a range extender power generation control device. Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, this method includes the following steps:

[0053] Step S210: Determine the first target association relationship between the SOC difference corresponding to the current vehicle driving mode and the power generation level, and determine the current power generation level from the first target association relationship according to the current SOC difference.

[0054] Among them, each vehicle driving mode corresponds to a first correlation relationship, which refers to the correlation relationship between the SOC difference and the power generation level, and is default represented by a MAP table obtained through simulation. The first target correlation relationship is the first correlation relationship corresponding to the current vehicle driving mode. When the current vehicle driving mode is the fuel priority driving mode, the first correlation relationship (MAP table) corresponding to the fuel priority driving mode is shown in Table 1; when the current vehicle driving mode is the pure electric priority driving mode, the first correlation relationship (MAP table) corresponding to the pure electric priority driving mode is shown in Table 2; when the current vehicle driving mode is the intelligent priority driving mode, the first correlation relationship (MAP table) corresponding to the intelligent priority driving mode is shown in Table 3. For example, if the current vehicle driving mode is the fuel priority driving mode and the current SOC difference is -5, the current power generation level can be obtained as 1 according to Table 1. If the current vehicle driving mode is the fuel priority driving mode and the current SOC difference is -8 (since it does not reach -5, the power generation level corresponding to -10 is taken, and all MAP tables in the present invention are default taken in this way), the current power generation level can be obtained as 2 according to Table 1.

[0055] Table 1:

[0056] SOC difference -10 -5 0 5 10 Power generation level 2 1 1 0 0

[0057] Table 2:

[0058] SOC difference -10 -5 0 5 10 Power generation level 1 1 1 1 1

[0059] Table 3:

[0060] SOC difference -10 -5 0 5 10 Power generation level 2 2 2 1 0

[0061] It should be noted that the values in the above first correlation relationships (MAP tables) are only for illustrative purposes and can be adjusted according to different vehicle models specifically, without any restrictions here.

[0062] Step S220: Based on the current power generation level, the current required torque of the target vehicle, and the current vehicle speed value, determine the current basic power generation power of the range extender of the target vehicle.

[0063] Step S230: Based on the current power generation level, the current slope value of the target vehicle, and the current vehicle weight level, determine the current compensation power generation power of the range extender, and obtain the current target power generation power of the range extender according to the current basic power generation power and the current compensation power generation power, and control the range extender to generate power according to the current target power generation power.

[0064] The technical solution of this embodiment further determines the first target correlation relationship between the corresponding SOC difference and the power generation level according to the current vehicle driving mode, and obtains the current power generation level. By determining the current power generation level in combination with the current vehicle driving mode, the accuracy of the power generation power control of the range extender under different driving modes and working conditions can be improved, thereby prolonging the service life of the vehicle battery and enhancing the driving experience of users.

[0065] Figure 3 The flowchart of the third embodiment of the range extender power generation control method provided by this application is shown. This method is executed by the range extender power generation control device. Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0066] Step S310: Based on the current vehicle driving mode of the target vehicle, and in combination with the current SOC difference between the actual SOC and the target SOC of the target vehicle, determine the current power generation level of the target vehicle.

[0067] Step S320: Determine the second target correlation relationship between the required torque, vehicle speed value, and basic power generation power corresponding to the current power generation level, and determine the current basic power generation power of the range extender from the second target correlation relationship according to the current required torque and the current vehicle speed value.

[0068] Among them, each power generation level corresponds to a second correlation relationship. The second correlation relationship refers to the correlation relationship between the required torque, vehicle speed value, and basic power generation power, and is default represented by a MAP table obtained through simulation. The second target correlation relationship is the second correlation relationship corresponding to the current power generation level. For example, when the current power generation level is 0, the second target correlation relationship (MAP table) corresponding to the current power generation level is as

[0069] shown in Table 4 (Y represents the required torque, X represents the vehicle speed value, and the Z-axis corresponding to XY represents the basic power generation power).

[0070] Y / X 0 10 20 40 60 80 100 120 -20 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 -10 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 -5 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 -2 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 10 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 20 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 30 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 40 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 50 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 60 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 70 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 80 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 90 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40 100 0 0 8 18 23 28 38 40

[0071] Table 4:

[0072] Step S330: Determine the third target correlation relationship between the slope value, vehicle weight level, and slope compensation power generation power corresponding to the current power generation level, and determine the current compensation power generation power of the range extender from the third target correlation relationship according to the current slope value and the current vehicle weight level.

[0073] Among them, each power generation level corresponds to a third correlation relationship, which refers to the correlation relationship among the slope value, vehicle weight level, and slope compensation power generation power, and is default represented by the MAP table obtained through simulation. The third target correlation relationship is the third correlation relationship corresponding to the current power generation level. For example, when the current power generation level is 0, the third target correlation relationship (MAP table) corresponding to the current power generation level is shown in Table 5 (Y represents the slope percentage value, X represents the vehicle weight level, and the Z-axis corresponding to XY represents the slope compensation power generation power).

[0074] Table 5:

[0075] Y / X 1 2 3 -5 0 0 0 -2 0 0 0 1 0 1 3 2 1 2 5 3 3 7 10 7 7 11 15 10 10 16 20

[0076] Step S340: Obtain the current target power generation power of the range extender based on the current basic power generation power and the current compensation power generation power, and control the range extender to generate power according to the current target power generation power.

[0077] The technical solution of this embodiment further determines the basic power generation power according to the second target correlation relationship among the required torque, vehicle speed value, and basic power generation power corresponding to the current power generation level, and determines the slope compensation power generation power according to the third target correlation relationship among the slope value, vehicle weight level, and slope compensation power generation power corresponding to the current power generation level, so as to obtain the power generation power of the range extender more accurately and perform control, which can improve the accuracy of the range extender power generation power control under different driving modes and working conditions of the vehicle, thereby improving the service life of the vehicle battery and enhancing the user's driving experience.

[0078] Based on any of the above embodiments, it further includes:

[0079] Determine the current required torque based on the current throttle pedal opening value and the current vehicle speed value of the target vehicle, and in combination with the fourth target correlation relationship among the throttle pedal opening value, vehicle speed value, and required torque.

[0080] Among them, the throttle pedal opening value can be collected through a throttle pedal position sensor. The fourth target correlation relationship is default represented by the MAP table obtained through simulation, and the current required torque is mapped through the known current throttle pedal opening value and the current vehicle speed value.

[0081] The above technical solution further determines the current required torque according to the current throttle pedal opening value and the current vehicle speed value, so as to obtain the power generation power of the range extender more accurately and perform control, which can improve the accuracy of the range extender power generation power control under different driving modes and working conditions of the vehicle, thereby improving the service life of the vehicle battery and enhancing the user's driving experience.
