[0002] Fuel cell vehicles have advantages such as being green and efficient, having a fast hydrogen refueling speed, and a long driving range compared to traditional fuel vehicles and other new energy vehicles. During the actual use of a fuel cell engine, its performance will decay due to aging, which will affect the service life of the fuel cell engine. Currently, the service life of fuel cell engines is relatively short, resulting in an increase in the overall operating cost of vehicles and affecting the commercialization of fuel cells. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate the actual aging degree based on the actual operating data of fuel cell vehicles, so as to provide a basis for formulating effective strategies to control the operation of fuel cell vehicles and slow down the performance decline.

[0003] However, the existing methods for calculating the aging of fuel cell engines are all developed based on fixed standard working conditions. During actual operation, fuel cell engines are often in harsh conditions beyond the design standards (such as high load and frequent working condition changes), resulting in the deviation of the aging calculation results from the actual situation by the traditional calculation method model, and poor applicability under actual working conditions.

[0004] Therefore, a fuel cell engine aging calculation scheme is needed to collect the actual operating stack current and stack voltage data of the fuel cell engine of a fuel cell vehicle, so that the aging calculation method can adapt to variable working conditions in real time.

[0124] According to the idle point current and the maximum reasonable current value Current max , set the current range;

[0125] Divide the current range greater than the idle point current and less than the maximum reasonable current value Current max into n equal parts;

[0126] Exclude the n - 1 current values outside the current range that do not include the idle point current and the maximum reasonable current value Current max as the current points participating in the calculation of the aging degree.

[0127] In this embodiment, calculating the aging degree at each calculation current point includes:

[0128] Substitute the determined current points participating in the calculation of the aging degree into the models of the fuel cell current - voltage performance fitting curve after parameter fitting and the initial - state fuel cell current - voltage performance fitting curve in step 3 to obtain the current - state voltage and the initial - state voltage at the current point;

[0129] According to the current - state voltage and the initial - state voltage at the current point, obtain the attenuation rate of the current - state voltage relative to the initial reference voltage;

[0130] Among them,

[0131] Denote the reference voltage value of the j - th current point as V Standard , the current - state voltage value of the j - th current point as V Now , and the attenuation degree of the voltage at the j - th current point as Degree_of_Aging j , then the expression of Degree_of_Aging j is:

When the comprehensive aging degree of the fuel cell engine is 3%-5%, it is defined as mild aging, and the proportional limit of the vehicle demand power change over time is limited to 85%-95% of the original; when the comprehensive aging degree is 5%-10%, it is defined as moderate aging, and the proportional limit of the vehicle demand power change over time is limited to 50%-85% of the original; when the comprehensive aging degree is greater than 10%, it is defined as severe aging, and the proportional limit of the vehicle demand power change over time is limited to less than 50% of the original. In the example, the initial vehicle demand power change rate is 0.125, and the comprehensive aging degree is 3.77% which belongs to mild aging.

[0148] The data collection module is used to collect the actual driving data of the fuel cell vehicle;

[0156] It should be noted that although this system only discloses a data collection module, a data cleaning module, a parameter fitting module, a fitting curve module, and an aging calculation module, it does not mean that this device is only limited to the above basic functional modules. On the contrary, what the present invention intends to express is that on the basis of the above basic functional modules, those skilled in the art can arbitrarily add one or more functional modules in combination with the prior art to form an infinite number of embodiments or technical solutions. That is to say, this system is open rather than closed, and it cannot be considered that the protection scope of the claims of the present invention is limited to the above-disclosed basic functional modules just because only individual basic functional modules are disclosed in this embodiment.

[0157] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the aging calculation strategy of a fuel cell engine in a specific embodiment of the present invention.

[0158] Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the process for calculating the aging degree of a fuel cell engine in a specific embodiment of the present invention.

[0159] Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of polarization scatter points in the original vehicle data in a specific embodiment of the present invention.

[0160] In a specific embodiment, a method for calculating the aging of a fuel cell engine is disclosed, which is used to evaluate the aging degree under the actual operating conditions of a real vehicle, and includes the following steps:

[0161] Step 1, collect the real driving data of a fuel cell vehicle;

[0162] Step 2, clean the collected data;

[0163] Step 3, fit the physical model parameters, and substitute the actual data with current greater than the idle point and the initial reference data of the fuel cell stack into the fuel cell polarization physical model for parameter fitting respectively; obtain the fuel cell current-voltage performance fitting curve in the current state and the fuel cell current-voltage performance fitting curve in the initial state.

[0164] Step 4, calculate the aging degree of the fuel cell engine. As Figure 4 shown, the process for calculating the aging degree of the fuel cell engine is as follows:

[0165] Determine the calculation current points. First, equally divide the current range where the current is greater than the idle point and less than the maximum reasonable current value Current max into n equal parts, and use the remaining n - 1 current values that do not include the idle point and Current max as the current points for participating in the calculation of the aging degree;

[0166] Calculate the degree of aging at each calculated current point. Substitute the determined calculated current points into the two polarization curve models after parameter fitting in Step 3 to obtain the current state voltage and the initial state voltage at the calculated current point, so as to obtain the attenuation rate of the current voltage at the calculated current point compared with the initial reference voltage. Denote the reference voltage value of the j-th current point as V Standard , denote the current voltage value of the j-th current point as V Now , denote the attenuation degree of the voltage at the j-th current point as Degree_of_Aging j , then the expression of Degree_of_Aging j is as follows:

[0167]

[0168] Determine the weighting coefficient at each current point. Take the probability density of the current interval with each current point as the middle value and the length of each n-equal division interval length as the weight of the attenuation degree of each current point. Denote the frequency of the current interval with the j-th current point as the middle value and the length of each n-equal division interval length in the actual data as Count_p_Slope j , denote the weight of the j-th current point as Weights j , then the expression of Weights j is as follows:

[0169]

[0170] Calculate the comprehensive degree of aging. Multiply the degree of aging at each calculated current point by the weighting coefficient at each current point and then sum them up to obtain the comprehensive degree of aging of the fuel cell engine. Denote the degree of aging of the fuel cell engine as Degree_of_Aging, then the expression of Degree_of_Aging is as follows:

[0171]

[0172] In another specific embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, disclose a fuel cell engine aging calculation strategy, including the following steps:

[0173] Step 1, collect the actual operating stack current and stack voltage data of the fuel cell engine of the fuel cell vehicle.

[0174] The purpose of collecting the actual vehicle data in Step 1 is to make the proposed aging calculation method adapt to variable working conditions in real time. The actual vehicle driving data contains information on multi-dimensional dynamic factors such as driving behavior, vehicle state, and road conditions. Using this information to calculate the aging of the fuel cell engine has better dynamic adaptability. To ensure the real-time and accuracy of calculating the aging state, it is preferred to use the actual vehicle operation data in the recent two weeks.

[0175] In this embodiment, taking a fuel cell vehicle with a relatively high actual application frequency and diverse operating scenarios as an example, 5040 lines of real driving data from 2024.27 to 2024.28 (year. week) were collected. Some data fields and their related meanings of the actual data are shown in Table 1.

[0178] Step 2: Clean the collected data. During the vehicle's driving process, the on-vehicle terminal reads the vehicle bus data in real time and transmits the data to the remote management platform through the mobile network at a certain sampling time. The data acquisition and data transmission processes may be interfered by various irresistible factors, resulting in outliers. When analyzing, the outliers need to be screened and removed.

[0179] Step 2 is to retain the valid data. By cleaning the outliers in the data, it is possible to prevent abnormal data from having an adverse impact on the analysis results and ensure the accuracy of the analysis results.

[0180] The process of screening abnormal data in this embodiment is as follows: (1) First, draw a scatter plot of the fuel cell voltage and fuel cell current changing with time to preliminarily check whether there are outliers in the data. Subsequently, according to the operating characteristics of the fuel cell stack provided by the stack, the reasonable value ranges of the fuel cell voltage and fuel cell current are restricted. The data points outside this range are identified as outliers and should be removed; (2) Then, view the data distribution and outlier information through a box plot. The data points that significantly deviate from the upper and lower edges of the box plot are identified as outliers and should be removed; (3) Check the time interval of the original data. Normally, the sampling time of the original data is 10s. However, due to the normal power on and off of the vehicle, the time interval between adjacent two lines of data should be no less than 10s. If data with a sampling interval less than 10s is found, the reliability of these data is at risk. To ensure the reliability of the data, these data also need to be removed. Clean the original data in the embodiment according to the above rules. After cleaning, the data is 4980 lines. After verification by drawing, the abnormal data of the fuel cell voltage and fuel cell current have been removed.

[0181] Step 3: Fit the physical model parameters. Substitute the actual data with current greater than the idle point after cleaning and the reference data of the stack into the fuel cell polarization physical model for parameter fitting.

[0182] Step 3 is to characterize the aging degree of the fuel cell system by the change of the physical model parameters fitted in the vehicle real-time data compared with the physical model parameters of the reference data. Due to the actual driving characteristics of fuel cell vehicles, during the stack startup process, the working medium supply gradually starts, the voltage gradually rises, and the fuel cell voltage values corresponding to the fuel cell current values less than the idle current point in the original vehicle data fluctuate greatly, and the actual current-voltage relationship does not satisfy the physical model, affecting the accuracy of fitting. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the current-voltage data before the idle current. The actual idle current is determined by observing the voltage fluctuation degree at each current point in the polarization scatter plot. The specific operation is to draw the polarization scatter plot of the fuel cell voltage changing with the fuel cell current time to judge the real idle point of the fuel cell vehicle, and perform parameter fitting on the current greater than the idle point and the voltage corresponding to the current with a physical equation.

[0183] In this embodiment, the polarization scatter points in the original vehicle data are as Figure 5 shown. It can be seen from the figure that the fuel cell voltage values corresponding to the current points less than 50 fluctuate greatly. Therefore, it is determined that the idle current point is 50, and the physical equation is used for polarization curve fitting, where the values of a, b, and c are not restricted, and it is required that the parameters d and e are less than 0, and the minimum value of the f value is Current max +100, and the maximum value is Current max +200. The maximum reasonable current value Current max selects the rated current value of the stack design to be 700.

[0184] Step 4, calculate the aging degree of the fuel cell engine. First, divide the current range where the current is greater than the idle point and less than the

[0185] maximum reasonable current value Current max into n equal parts, substitute the remaining n - 1 current values that do not include the idle point and Current max into the two polarization curve models after parameter fitting in Step 3 to obtain the corresponding voltage values, then calculate the attenuation rate of the current voltage at the n - 1 current points compared with the reference voltage respectively, and finally perform weighted summation on the attenuation rates at the n - 1 current points to obtain the aging degree of the fuel cell engine.

[0186] Step 4 is to calculate the aging degree of the fuel cell engine. The current range of the actual operation of the vehicle is discretized into n equal parts. By performing weighted summation on the attenuation rates of the current voltage at the n - 1 current points compared with the reference voltage, the aging degree of the fuel cell engine can be obtained. Denote the aging degree of the fuel cell engine as Degree_of_Aging, and the attenuation degree of the voltage at the jth current point as Degree_of_Aging j , and the weight of the jth current point as Weightsj , the reference voltage value of the j-th current point is denoted as V Standard , the current voltage value of the j-th current point is denoted as V Now .

[0187]

[0188] In this embodiment, n is 8, the current interval (50, 700) is discretized, and the 7 points are 131.25, 212.5, 293.75, 375, 456.25, 537.5, and 618.75 respectively. Taking each current point as the median value, the probability density of the current interval with a length of each 8-equal division interval length is uniformly distributed. Therefore, the weighting coefficients are the same, and the aging degree of the vehicle's fuel cell engine is 3.77%. The reference voltage, current voltage of each current point, and the attenuation degree of the voltage under each current point are shown in Table 2 below, showing the attenuation situation of each current point of the example vehicle.

[0190]

[0191] In the above embodiment, the main technical route is as follows:

[0192] (1) When calculating the aging of the fuel cell engine, the actual operation data of the fuel cell engine is used.

[0193] (2) The screening rules during the cleaning of the original data.

[0194] (3) When fitting the physical model parameters, is used for polarization physical model fitting, and the parameters can characterize the aging factors. Among them, the values of a, b, and c have no restrictions. It is required that the parameters d and e are less than 0, and the minimum value of the f value is Current max +100, and the maximum value is Current max +200.

[0195] (4) For the accuracy of the physical model fitting, the data in the original vehicle data greater than the idle current point is retained and analyzed. First, the true idle point of the fuel cell vehicle is judged by drawing the polarization scatter plot of the fuel cell voltage changing with the fuel cell current time, and the current greater than the idle point and the voltage corresponding to the current are used for parameter fitting with physical equations.

[0196] (5) A calculation method for the aging of the fuel cell engine is proposed, which combines physical models and data statistical analysis, and has the interpretability of the aging cause, high fidelity, and high calculation efficiency. First, the current interval where the current is greater than the idle point and less than the maximum reasonable current value Current max is divided into n equal parts, and the idle point and Current are not includedmax The remaining n - 1 current values are respectively substituted into the two polarization curve models after parameter fitting to obtain the corresponding voltage values. Then, the decay rates of the current voltages at the n - 1 current points relative to the reference voltage are calculated respectively. Finally, the decay rates at the n - 1 current points are weighted and summed to obtain the aging degree of the fuel cell engine.

[0197] (6) Method for determining the weighting coefficient at each current point. The current operating range of the fuel cell engine is wide, and there may be significant differences in the commonly used operating currents of different fuel cell engines. At each current point, the aging degree of the fuel cell is different. By setting the weighting coefficient, the influence on the aging degree of the fuel cell engine at different currents can be adjusted, and the aging state of the fuel cell can be more accurately indicated.
