[0035] In order to enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the technical solution of the present application, the application scenario of the solution of the present application is first described below.

[0036] As aircraft evolve toward highly information-based, intelligent, and multi-tasking capabilities, high-power radars, directed energy weapons, and other equipment are placing higher instantaneous power demands on onboard power supply systems. Furthermore, constant-power loads such as multiple electric actuators operate in four-quadrants, and the feedback energy they generate impacts the onboard power supply system. Adding energy storage to the existing onboard power supply architecture is a key technical approach to maintaining grid stability. The introduction of energy storage systems or components not only provides peak energy for high-power loads but also effectively absorbs the feedback energy from constant-power loads such as electric actuators, achieving peak-shaving and valley-filling, thereby improving the robustness, reliability, and efficiency of the onboard power supply system. To ensure efficient operation of energy storage or components, precise control of their charge and discharge power is crucial, crucial for ensuring aircraft flight safety and enhancing their sustained combat capability.

[0037] Currently, bidirectional DC-DC converters (DC-DC converters) can be used in airborne power supply architectures to control the bidirectional flow of energy and the charging and discharging of stored energy by varying the voltage differential between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus. However, the volume and weight of a DC-DC converter are proportional to its power. Compared to ground-based platforms such as new energy vehicles, renewable energy, and microgrids, DC-DC converters cannot meet the volume and weight requirements of aircraft-based platforms. Matching a bidirectional DC-DC converter to the maximum discharge power of the energy storage element may result in excessive volume and weight, making it unsuitable for installation on an aircraft platform. Furthermore, eliminating the DC-DC converter reduces the accuracy of charge and discharge power control.

[0038] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present disclosure provides a charge and discharge power control device, method and product for an aircraft energy storage element. In the present disclosure, the charge and discharge power control device for an aircraft energy storage element includes an energy storage element, a switching element, a high-voltage DC bus, an energy storage charge and discharge controller and a bus voltage regulation module; one end of the switching element is connected to the energy storage element, and the other end is connected to the high-voltage DC bus. The energy storage charge and discharge controller is used to determine the target bus voltage of the high-voltage DC bus based on the power generation power of the aircraft generator and the power consumption of the aircraft load, and to determine the working state of the switching element; and to change the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element based on the working state. The bus voltage regulation module is used to regulate the voltage value of the high-voltage DC bus to the target bus voltage, so as to change the charge and discharge power of the energy storage element through the target bus voltage. The use of switching elements can meet the requirements of the airborne platform for the volume and weight of the equipment, avoid the problem of exceeding the volume and weight limit, and improve the power-to-weight ratio. The target bus voltage is used to dynamically adjust the bilateral pressure difference, so that the charge and discharge power of the energy storage element can be accurately adjusted.

[0039] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent, the following will describe in detail exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments of the present disclosure, and it should be understood that the present disclosure is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein.

[0040] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a charge and discharge power control device for an aircraft energy storage element provided by the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the device includes: energy storage elements, switching elements, high-voltage DC bus, energy storage charge and discharge controller and bus voltage regulation module.

[0041] One end of the switching element is connected to the energy storage element, and the other end is connected to the high-voltage DC bus, thereby establishing an energy flow path between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus. In this embodiment, the switching element can be a device that has the function of controlling the on / off function of the circuit. Compared with bidirectional DC-DC converters in related technologies, the use of switching elements can simplify the structure of the charge and discharge power control device, reduce weight compensation, and improve the power-to-weight ratio of the device.

[0042] The energy storage charge and discharge controller is used to determine the operating state of the switching element based on the power generation power of the aircraft generator and the power consumption of the aircraft load, and to determine the target bus voltage of the high-voltage DC bus when the operating state is working; and to change the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element based on the operating state.

[0043] Specifically, based on the aircraft's current power generation and power consumption, it can be determined whether the onboard power supply system requires the introduction of energy storage elements under the current flight conditions to determine the operating state of the switching elements. The energy storage charge and discharge controller has a signal data transmission relationship with the energy storage elements, switching elements, high-voltage DC bus, and bus voltage regulation module. It is understood that this signal data transmission relationship can use either an electrical connection or a wireless signal transmission method, and this disclosure does not specifically limit this.

[0044] If the generator's power generation differs significantly from the load's power demand, creating an imbalance in the grid's energy supply and demand and requiring the introduction of an energy storage element, the energy storage charge and discharge controller will issue a switch-closing command, closing the switch element and reconnecting the energy flow path. The switch element is now in an active state, which in turn changes the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element, allowing it to be either charged or discharged. The target bus voltage of the high-voltage DC bus can be determined based on the aircraft's generator power generation and the aircraft's load power.

[0045] If the generator's power generation is close to the load's power demand, the energy supply and demand in the power grid is balanced, and there is no need to introduce energy storage elements. In this case, the energy storage charge and discharge controller needs to send a switch disconnect instruction to disconnect the switch element and cut off the energy flow path. At this time, the switch element is in an inoperative state, thereby changing the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element. At this time, the energy storage element can be in an inoperative state.

[0046] The bus voltage regulation module is used to regulate the voltage value of the high-voltage DC bus to the target bus voltage, so as to change the charging and discharging power of the energy storage element through the target bus voltage.

[0047] Specifically, the bus voltage regulation module has a signal data transmission relationship with the high-voltage DC bus. As an actuator, the bus voltage regulation module can adjust the voltage of the high-voltage DC bus after collecting the voltage value of the high-voltage DC bus. When the bus voltage regulation module receives the target bus voltage from the energy storage charge and discharge controller, the bus voltage regulation module increases or decreases the voltage of the high-voltage DC bus according to the target bus voltage, thereby changing the voltage difference between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus in real time to change the charge and discharge power of the energy storage element.

[0048] In the present disclosure, the charge and discharge power control device for an aircraft energy storage element includes an energy storage element, a switching element, a high-voltage DC bus, an energy storage charge and discharge controller, and a bus voltage regulation module; one end of the switching element is connected to the energy storage element, and the other end is connected to the high-voltage DC bus. The energy storage charge and discharge controller is used to determine the working state of the switching element based on the power generation power of the aircraft generator and the power consumption of the aircraft load, and when the working state is working, determine the target bus voltage of the high-voltage DC bus; and change the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element based on the working state. The bus voltage regulation module is used to regulate the voltage value of the high-voltage DC bus to the target bus voltage, so as to change the charge and discharge power of the energy storage element through the target bus voltage. The use of switching elements can meet the requirements of the airborne platform for the volume and weight of the equipment and avoid the problem of exceeding the volume and weight limit. By changing the connection state of the switching element between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus through the target bus voltage, the bilateral pressure difference can be dynamically adjusted, thereby accurately adjusting the charge and discharge power of the energy storage element.

[0049] In one possible implementation, the switching element is a solid-state power controller.

[0050] Specifically, in this embodiment, the switching element can be a solid-state power controller. A solid-state power controller is a contactless switch capable of controlling power on and off. It features fast switching speeds, no arcing, minimal electromagnetic interference, high reliability, and ease of control. Furthermore, the solid-state power controller's small size and weight can reduce weight compensation, improve the device's power-to-weight ratio, meet aircraft equipment size and weight requirements, and avoid exceeding size and weight limits.

[0051] In one possible implementation, the energy storage charge and discharge controller is used to:

[0052] The working state of the switching element is determined by comparing the absolute value of the power difference between the generated power and the consumed power with a preset power fluctuation threshold.

[0053] Specifically, the energy storage charge and discharge controller can obtain the generator's generated power and the load's power consumption under current flight conditions, compare the absolute value of the power difference between the generated power and the power consumption with a fluctuation threshold, and determine the operating state of the switching element based on the comparison result, thereby changing the switching element's closing or opening state, thereby controlling the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element. The preset power fluctuation threshold can be set based on different aircraft models and flight requirements, and this disclosure does not specifically limit this.

[0054] In one possible implementation, the energy storage charge and discharge controller is used to:

[0055] When the power difference is less than zero and the absolute value of the power difference is greater than the preset power fluctuation threshold, the working state of the switching element is determined to be working, and the switching element is controlled to be closed; the target bus voltage is determined by the terminal voltage of the energy storage element, the power difference, the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus, and the load equivalent resistance.

[0056] Specifically, when the power difference is less than zero and the absolute value of the power difference is greater than the preset power fluctuation threshold, it means that the current generator output power cannot meet the load's power demand, and the energy storage element needs to discharge to fill the energy gap. That is, the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element needs to be regulated to the discharge state. Therefore, the operating state of the switching element is determined to be working, and the energy storage charge and discharge controller needs to send a turn-on command to the switching element to control the switching element to close. By adjusting the target bus voltage, the direction of energy flow is regulated to flow from the energy storage element to the high-voltage DC bus. Among them, the discharge power of the energy storage element is the power difference.

[0057] The power difference can be calculated using the following formula:

[0058] ΔP=P gen -P load

[0059] Where ΔP is the power difference, P gen is the power generation power, P load For electrical power.

[0060] After determining the power difference, the terminal voltage of the energy storage element, the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus, and the equivalent resistance of the load are obtained. The target bus voltage can be calculated and determined according to the following formula to change the discharge power of the energy storage element according to the target bus voltage:

[0061]

[0062] Among them, U bus-r is the target bus voltage, U bat is the terminal voltage of the energy storage element, R′ is the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus, ΔP is the power difference, and R is the load equivalent resistance.

[0063] Figure 2 This is another structural diagram of a charge and discharge power control device for an aircraft energy storage element provided by the present disclosure, such as Figure 2 As shown, the switch element is in a closed state, and the current flows from the energy storage element to the high-voltage DC bus.

[0064] In one possible implementation, the energy storage charge and discharge controller is used to:

[0065] When the power difference is greater than zero and the absolute value of the power difference is greater than the preset power fluctuation threshold, the working state of the switching element is determined to be working, and the switching element is controlled to be closed; the target bus voltage is determined by the terminal voltage of the energy storage element, the power difference and the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus.

[0066] Specifically, when the power difference is greater than zero, and the absolute value of the power difference is greater than the preset power fluctuation threshold, it means that the output power of the current generator exceeds the power demand of the load, and the energy storage element needs to be charged to absorb the excess electric energy, that is, the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element needs to be adjusted to the charging state. Therefore, it is determined that the working state of the switching element is working, and the energy storage charge and discharge controller needs to send a connection instruction to the switching element to control the switching element to close, and adjust the target bus voltage to adjust the direction of energy flow from the high-voltage DC bus to the energy storage element. Among them, the charging power of the energy storage element is the power difference, and the method for calculating the power difference has been described in detail above and will not be repeated here.

[0067] After determining the power difference, the terminal voltage of the energy storage element and the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus are obtained. The target bus voltage can be calculated and determined according to the following formula, so that the charging power of the energy storage element can be changed according to the target bus voltage:

[0068]

[0069] Among them, U bus-r is the target bus voltage, U bat is the terminal voltage of the energy storage element, R′ is the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus, and ΔP is the power difference.

[0070] Figure 3 This is another structural diagram of a charge and discharge power control device for an aircraft energy storage element provided by the present disclosure, such as Figure 3 As shown, the switch element is in a closed state, and the current flows from the high-voltage DC bus to the energy storage element.

[0071] In one possible implementation, the energy storage charge and discharge controller is used to:

[0072] When the absolute value of the power difference is less than or equal to the preset power fluctuation threshold, the working state of the switching element is determined to be non-working, and the switching element is controlled to be disconnected.

[0073] Specifically, Figure 4 This is another structural diagram of a charge and discharge power control device for an aircraft energy storage element provided by the present disclosure, such as Figure 4 As shown, the switching element is in the disconnected state. When the absolute value of the power difference is less than or equal to the preset power fluctuation threshold, it indicates that the aircraft's generated power is close to the power demand, the energy supply and demand in the power grid are balanced, and the energy storage element is not required to operate. Therefore, to determine that the operating state of the switching element is non-operating, the energy storage charge and discharge controller needs to send a disconnect instruction to the switching element, controlling the switching element to disconnect, cutting off the energy flow path between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus, so that the charge and discharge state of the energy storage element is regulated to the non-operating state.

[0076] S502: Regulating the voltage value of the high-voltage DC bus to a target bus voltage, so as to change the charge and discharge power of the energy storage element according to the target bus voltage.

[0085] Optionally, the switching element is a solid-state power controller.

[0086] Figure 6 Another flow chart of a method for controlling the charge and discharge power of an aircraft energy storage element provided by the present disclosure. Figure 6 As shown, the method includes:

[0087] S601: Obtain the power generated by the aircraft generator and the power consumed by the aircraft load.

[0088] Specifically, in this embodiment, the aircraft may have multiple loads, and the generator may be a turbine generator. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the turbine power and the total power consumption of the multiple loads. It is understood that the generator may also be other types of generators, and this disclosure does not specifically limit this.

[0089] S602: Determine the working state of the solid-state power controller based on the comparison of the absolute value of the power difference between the generated power and the consumed power with a preset power fluctuation threshold.

[0090] Specifically, the relationship between the absolute value of the power difference and a preset power fluctuation threshold is determined, and the operating state of the solid-state power controller is determined based on the comparison result. If the absolute value is greater than the preset power fluctuation threshold, it indicates that the solid-state power controller is currently operating, and step S604 is executed. If the absolute value is less than or equal to the preset power fluctuation threshold, it indicates that the solid-state power controller is currently not operating, and step S603 is executed.

[0091] S603: Disconnect the solid-state power controller.

[0092] Specifically, when the absolute value is less than or equal to the preset power fluctuation threshold, that is, the supply and demand between the turbine's generated power and the load's power consumption is balanced, and no energy storage element is required, then the solid-state power controller needs to be controlled in an inoperative state, that is, the solid-state power controller needs to be disconnected, and then step S601 is executed to continue monitoring the current aircraft's generated power and power consumption.

[0093] S604: Closing the solid-state power controller according to a comparison result between the absolute value and a preset power fluctuation threshold.

[0094] Specifically, when the absolute value is greater than the preset power fluctuation threshold, that is, the turbine's power generation power is unbalanced with the load's power consumption, the solid-state power controller needs to be controlled to be in working state, that is, to control the solid-state power controller to be closed.

[0095] S605: Determine a target bus voltage based on the power difference.

[0096] Specifically, when it is determined that the solid-state power controller is in a working state, the target bus voltage of the high-voltage DC bus when the energy storage element needs to remain in a discharge state when the power difference is less than zero can be determined based on the power difference, the terminal voltage of the energy storage element, the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus, and the load equivalent resistance. The target bus voltage can be used to determine whether the current direction changes to flow from the energy storage element to the high-voltage DC bus; the target bus voltage of the high-voltage DC bus when the energy storage element needs to remain in a charging state when the power difference is greater than zero can be determined based on the power difference, the terminal voltage of the energy storage element, and the equivalent resistance between the energy storage element and the high-voltage DC bus.
