Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of energy storage battery detection equipment, and in particular to a detection device and a detection method based on energy storage battery production. Background Art
[0002] At present, when energy storage battery technology is widely used, the thermal runaway problem seriously threatens the safety and reliability of energy storage systems. Under complex working conditions such as charge-discharge cycles, overcharge, over-discharge, external short circuit, and high-temperature environments of energy storage batteries, the internal electrochemical reactions may get out of control, leading to thermal runaway. Once thermal runaway occurs, it will not only cause a sharp decline in battery performance and shorten its service life, but also may cause catastrophic consequences such as electrolyte leakage, fire, and even explosion due to the sharp rise in the internal temperature and pressure of the battery, posing great harm to the safety of personnel's lives and property and the surrounding environment.
[0003] Existing thermal runaway detection means for energy storage batteries have obvious deficiencies. Some traditional detection methods only focus on the monitoring of a single physical quantity, such as simply relying on temperature sensors to monitor the temperature change on the battery surface. However, the thermal runaway reaction inside the battery is a complex phenomenon involving the mutual coupling of multiple physical and chemical processes. Single temperature monitoring is difficult to comprehensively and accurately reflect the true process of thermal runaway. At this time, the method based on single temperature monitoring will have missed detections and cannot timely warn of the thermal runaway risk. In addition, some detection methods have defects in detection accuracy and response speed. As a result, in the early stage of thermal runaway, it is impossible to timely and accurately judge whether thermal runaway is about to occur, thus missing the best intervention opportunity and worsening the thermal runaway accident. Moreover, existing detection devices often lack the ability to deeply analyze and comprehensively judge the variation laws of multiple parameters during thermal runaway.
[0004] In summary, traditional detection methods are difficult to effectively integrate and analyze the coordinated changes of various internal parameters of energy storage batteries, cannot establish a comprehensive and accurate thermal runaway performance evaluation model, and are difficult to meet the requirements for accurately detecting and deeply studying the thermal runaway performance of energy storage batteries. For these reasons, the present application proposes a detection device and a detection method with high integration of various data such as temperature, pressure, gas concentration, and pressure for the interior of energy storage batteries after production.

At the border of the pit 21, there are positioning grids 22 arranged in an array corresponding to the position of the energy storage battery module 1. At the positioning grid 22, there are sticky notes with row and column marking numbers pasted, and the digital sticky notes match the row and column numbers displayed on the display screen main body 51, which are used to accurately locate the abnormal energy storage batteries.
[0065] An adjustment cavity 23 for storing each structure in the data acquisition module 3 is opened inside the detection machine table 2; a through hole penetrating the detection machine table 2 is opened at the top of the adjustment cavity 23, and among them, the lifting column 323 penetrates the through hole for height adjustment.
[0066] A data acquisition module 3 for data acquisition of the energy storage battery module 1 is arranged inside the adjustment chamber 23, and the data acquisition module 3 is rotatably and lifted on the top of the detection machine 2; the data acquisition module 3 includes a lower pressure cover plate 30 located outside the adjustment chamber 23 and above the energy storage battery module 1, and the two sides of the lower pressure cover plate 30 are chamfered plates; the inner walls of the chamfered plates on both sides are bonded with soft strip pads 36, and the soft strip pads 36 include a contact area and an extrusion area; the contact area is an inclined edge, and the diameter gradually increases from the bottom to the top; the extrusion area is a vertical surface, which is the maximum diameter thickness of the soft strip pad 36; wherein the soft strip pad 36 is arranged to contact and abut against the side of the energy storage battery module 1 at the edge, thereby stabilizing the spacing between each energy storage battery, avoiding displacement or tilting, and realizing accurate alignment and acquisition of data; the data acquisition module 3 also includes a drive operation component 32 installed in the adjustment chamber 23, and the drive operation component 32 includes a contact area with the inner wall of the bottom of the adjustment chamber 23 The rotating motor 321 is installed and connected, and the top sliding sleeve of the rotating motor 321 is installed with a lifting column 323 for adjusting the height of the pressing cover plate 30. The inner wall of the lifting column 323 is provided with a rectangular cavity 324. The top output end of the rotating motor 321 is fixedly connected with a rectangular plate 322, and the rectangular plate 322 is located at the inner wall of the rectangular cavity 324 and is slidably arranged. The rectangular arrangement of the rectangular plate 322 and the rectangular cavity 324 is used to determine that when the output end of the rotating motor 321 drives the lifting column 323 to rotate synchronously under the limiting action of the rectangular cavity 324, the position of the pressing cover plate 30 is adjusted, which is used for placing or taking the energy storage battery module 1; the top of the lifting column 323 is connected with a transversely arranged lifting limit plate 33, the length of the lifting limit plate 33 is greater than the top through hole of the adjustment cavity 23, and the top of the lifting limit plate 33 is fixedly connected with a support frame 34, and the other end of the support frame 34 is fixedly connected to the top of the pressing cover plate 30;On one side of the outer ring of the lifting column 323, multiple groups of teeth 325 are arranged. On the side of the multiple groups of teeth 325, gears 326 meshing and driving therewith are correspondingly arranged. A rotating shaft rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the adjustment cavity 23 penetrates through the inner ring of the gear 326. The other end of the rotating shaft penetrates through the side wall of the detection machine table 2 and is connected to a micro drive motor 320. The micro drive motor 320 and the side wall of the detection machine table 2 are assembled and connected through a mounting seat. In combination with the settings of the micro drive motor 320 and the gear 326, when the micro drive motor 320 is started, the gear 326 is rotated, and then the teeth 325 are meshed, so that the height of the teeth 325 is adjusted in the through hole, and further the height of the pressing cover plate 30 is adjusted. Specifically, after the teeth 325 are meshed to a suitable height by the gear 326, the rotating motor 321 is slightly adjusted to rotate, so that the pressing cover plate 30 corresponds to the position of the energy storage battery module 1. During the slight rotation of the output end of the rotating motor 321, the meshing between the teeth 325 and the gear 326 does not disengage. After the position correspondence between the energy storage battery module 1 and the pressing cover plate 30 is completed, the gear 326 is reversely driven to mesh with the teeth 325, and then the height of the lifting column 323 is reduced, so that the sensor assembly 31 contacts the upper surface of the energy storage battery module 1;
[0067] On the front side wall of the detection machine table 2, a data processing and analysis module 4 for processing various data collected by the data collection module 3 is also provided. The data processing and analysis module 4 relies on a server with powerful computing power and a cloud computing platform as the hardware support for data processing and analysis, and has a multi-core processor, a large-capacity memory, and a high-speed storage device;
[0068] It also includes a warning module 5 arranged on the upper surface of the detection machine table 2 for warning and positioning the energy storage battery to be tested.
[0069] In this embodiment, a method for detecting the performance of an energy storage battery in combination with the above detection device is also proposed, including the following operation steps:
[0070] Step 1: Place and install multiple groups of energy storage battery modules 1 one by one in the detection machine table 2 synchronously, ensuring that each energy storage battery module 1 is located at the center of a single pit 21 and contacts the data collection contact 35. Multiple temperature sensors for internal temperature perception and sensors for detecting the gas component concentration for connecting to the gas channel are also arranged at the corresponding positions inside the energy storage battery module 1, so as to perform comprehensive data monitoring on the energy storage battery module 1 and achieve accurate data collection;
[0071] Step 2: Preset the operation rules of each driving device in the data acquisition module 3. The specific setting algorithm can adopt the existing controller control calculation algorithm, and will not be elaborated in this embodiment. Then gradually start and run each driving device until the lower pressing cover 30 gently presses and contacts the upper surface of the energy storage battery module 1, so as to realize the contact of the sensor assembly 31 with the outer surface of the energy storage battery module 1. At the same time, combined with the setting of the data acquisition contact 35, the purpose of connecting the positive and negative poles of the energy storage battery module 1 is realized. In this embodiment, the connection relationship between the sensor and other positions of the energy storage battery module 1 is also involved, which will not be described here, and general connection means can be adopted;
[0072] Step 3: Combine the data acquisition contact 35 and the sensor assembly 31 to collect and convert the voltage, gas component concentration, temperature and pressure data of multiple groups of energy storage battery modules 1 in real time, and transmit the encrypted data to the data processing and analysis module 4 through the wireless transmission module. Specifically, a 5G module is adopted, and the transmission rate is greater than 100 Mbps, which is used to transmit the collected data to the remote data processing and analysis module 4 in time; The wireless transmission module adopts the AES encryption algorithm to ensure the security and confidentiality of the data during transmission and prevent the data from being stolen or tampered with;
[0073] Among them, the sensor assembly 31 is a multi-dimensional sensor array, including a temperature sensor module, a pressure sensor module, a gas sensor module, and a voltage and current sensor module;
[0074] Among them, the temperature sensor module adopts a thermocouple sensor array. A plurality of temperature measurement points are evenly distributed on the surface of each energy storage battery module 1 and at the position of the data acquisition contact 35. A plurality of temperature monitoring points are arranged near the electrodes and in the center area of the electrolyte. For example: in a typical lithium-ion energy storage battery, temperature sensors can be arranged at the four corners and the center position of the battery surface and at two positions near the positive and negative electrodes inside to form a three-dimensional temperature monitoring network. The measurement accuracy of the surface temperature sensor is ±0.3 °C, and the accuracy of the internal temperature sensor is ±0.1 °C, ensuring that the temperature distribution information of a single energy storage battery module 1 at different positions can be accurately obtained in real time, constructing a three-dimensional temperature monitoring network, and comprehensively capturing the subtle changes and gradient distribution of temperature during the thermal runaway process;
[0075] Among them, the temperature change calculation formula is: Where ΔT is the temperature change amount, T1 and T2 are the starting temperature and the ending temperature respectively; Δt is the time change amount, and t1 and t2 are the starting time and the ending time respectively. This formula is used to calculate the rise or fall of the battery temperature per unit time. If the temperature change rate increases abnormally, it may indicate a thermal runaway risk;
[0076] The measurement range of the pressure sensor module is 0 - 22 MPa, and the accuracy is ±0.005 MPa. It is installed in the internal space of the energy storage battery module 1. A high-precision pressure sensor is used to monitor in real time the internal pressure change caused by gas generation and expansion during the thermal runaway of the battery. The response time is less than 1 ms. Due to the pressure change caused by the decomposition and gasification of the electrolyte, the sudden increase in pressure is often one of the important signals indicating that thermal runaway is about to occur or has already occurred.
[0077] Among them, the ideal gas state equation: P v = nRT, where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the amount of substance, T is the temperature, and R is the universal gas constant. In the monitoring of battery thermal runaway, if the amount of substance, temperature, and the volume of the container where the gas inside the battery are known, the pressure change can be calculated according to this formula to help judge the severity of the internal reaction of the battery.
[0078] Rate of pressure change: Among them, P1 and P2 are the initial pressure and the final pressure respectively, and t1 and t2 are the initial time and the final time respectively. By calculating the rate of change of pressure with time, the growth trend of the internal pressure of the battery can be monitored, and the signs of thermal runaway can be detected in time.
[0079] The gas sensor module selects a high-sensitivity gas sensor array to detect multiple characteristic gases simultaneously. The characteristic gases include hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, etc. The detection sensitivity reaches the ppb level. The gas sensor is installed in the gas sampling channel of the energy storage battery module 1 and is connected to the inside of the battery through the gas sampling system, providing important data support for analyzing the chemical reaction process of thermal runaway. For example, a metal oxide semiconductor gas sensor has a high-sensitivity response to hydrogen, while an electrochemical sensor is used to accurately detect carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, and the change information of the gas composition and concentration inside the battery is collected in real time.
[0080] Among them, the amount-of-substance concentration of gas: Among them, c is the amount-of-substance concentration, n is the amount of solute, and V is the volume of the solution. For the gas generated by battery thermal runaway, its amount of substance or volume can be measured by the corresponding gas sensor, and then the concentration can be calculated in combination with the volume of the space where it is located.
[0081] Mass concentration of gas: Among them, ρ is the mass concentration, m is the mass of the solute, and V is the volume of the solution. The mass of the gas and the volume of the space where it is located can be measured first, and then the mass concentration can be obtained to monitor the change in the concentration of the gas generated by thermal runaway.
[0082] In the voltage-current sensor module, the measurement accuracy of the voltage sensor is ±0.0005V. A high-precision differential voltage sensor is selected to directly measure the voltage of each battery cell, enabling timely detection of abnormal conditions such as overcharging, over-discharging, and internal short circuits of the battery, as these abnormalities often accompany significant voltage fluctuations; the measurement accuracy of the current sensor is ±0.05A;
[0083] Among them, the current change rate: Among them, I1 and I2 are the starting current and the ending current respectively. When the battery undergoes thermal runaway, the internal chemical reaction may intensify, resulting in abnormal current changes. By calculating the current change rate, monitoring can be carried out.
[0084] Voltage change rate: Among them, U1 and U2 are the starting voltage and the ending voltage respectively. During the thermal runaway process of the battery, the voltage may fluctuate or decrease. Calculating the voltage change rate helps to capture these abnormalities in a timely manner.
[0085] Step 4:
[0086] Step 4.1: Pre-combine the data processing and analysis module 4 to utilize a large amount of experimental data and actual operation data of energy storage battery thermal runaway, and adopt machine learning algorithms to construct a thermal runaway early warning model; the machine learning algorithms are implemented using random forest and support vector machine, extract and analyze the features of the multi-dimensional data collected in step 3, mine the change laws and correlation features of temperature, pressure, gas component concentration, voltage, and current parameters during the thermal runaway process, and establish a multi-parameter fusion thermal runaway early warning index system;
[0087] Step 4.2: Combine the data acquisition module 3 to input the monitoring data into the data processing and analysis module 4 and input it into the early warning model, which can accurately judge whether the battery has a thermal runaway risk and issue an early warning signal in the early stage of thermal runaway; combine the real-time collected data to judge whether there is a thermal runaway risk and give an early warning, and the early warning accuracy rate is greater than 95%; the algorithm comprehensively considers the change trends, change rates, and the mutual relationships of multiple parameters such as temperature, voltage, gas concentration, and pressure, and can accurately identify the early features of thermal runaway. For example, when the temperature rise rate exceeds a certain threshold and is accompanied by abnormal voltage fluctuations, a rapid increase in the concentration of specific gases, and an increase in pressure, the algorithm determines that the battery may undergo thermal runaway and issues an early warning signal;
