Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium battery safety monitoring, and in particular to a lithium battery safety monitoring method and system based on multi-sensor fusion. Background Art
[0002] Traditional battery management systems (BMS) estimate battery state of health (SOH) and state of safety (SOS) by monitoring parameters such as cell voltage, current, temperature, and capacity. However, they have the following limitations:
[0003] 1. Unable to provide early warning of physical deformation failures such as battery swelling and internal short circuit;
[0004] 2. Lack of real-time monitoring of battery impacts (such as drops and collisions);
[0005] 3. Relying on empirical models, the prediction accuracy of sudden abnormal conditions is insufficient. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical task of this invention is to address these shortcomings by providing a lithium battery safety monitoring method and system based on multi-sensor fusion. This system can provide battery swelling warning, external impact monitoring, chemical anomaly identification, and dynamic safety assessment. This solves the problem of traditional BMS's inadequate monitoring of physical deformation, sudden impact, and chemical anomalies. Through scenario-adaptive thresholds, temperature compensation, and multi-parameter coupling analysis, the system significantly improves warning accuracy and applicability.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is:
[0008] The lithium battery safety monitoring method based on multi-sensor fusion includes the following steps:
[0009] S1: The pressure sensor continuously monitors the internal pressure of the battery and performs temperature compensation correction based on the temperature sensor data. When the corrected pressure value exceeds the preset range, a sealing or bulging warning is triggered.
[0010] S2: The IMU sensor collects acceleration, angular velocity, vibration frequency, and posture data, and determines fall or collision events based on scene-adaptive thresholds.
[0011] S3: Sensor data is uploaded to the cloud at fixed intervals or event triggers, and analyzed by AI algorithms to generate security risk levels;
[0012] S4: The user terminal receives and displays the risk assessment results and warning information.
[0013] This method uses a built-in barometer, inertial navigation sensor, and gas composition sensor, combined with cloud-based AI algorithm edge-side intelligent preprocessing, to achieve battery sealing detection, deformation warning, external force impact monitoring, internal gas anomaly analysis, and dynamic safety assessment.
[0014] Furthermore, the temperature compensation correction in step S1 is implemented based on the ideal gas state equation PV=nRT, where P is the gas pressure, V is the gas volume, n is the amount of gas substance, R is the ideal gas constant, and T is the gas temperature; the correction formula is:
[0015] P0=P 测 ×T0 / T 测 ;
[0016] Among them, P0 is the corrected air pressure reference value, P 测 is the internal pressure value of the battery measured in real time by the pressure sensor, T0 is the absolute temperature corresponding to 25℃, T 测 The real-time absolute temperature.
[0017] Furthermore, if the air pressure value exceeds the preset range (e.g., a drop of more than 5% or an increase of more than 10%), it is determined to be a seal failure or bulging risk, triggering an early warning;
[0018] At the same time, the gas composition sensor is linked. If the H2 concentration is detected to be greater than 50ppm or the CO concentration is greater than 20ppm, it is determined to be a risk of micro-short circuit of the battery cell and the warning level is upgraded.
[0019] Furthermore, the AI algorithm described in step S3 adopts a multimodal fusion network, including a GRU / LSTM layer to process BMS time series data, a CNN branch to analyze the spectral characteristics of the impact event, and a Transformer layer to perform attention weighting on the gas composition time series data. The input data includes air pressure sequence, impact event vector, BMS data matrix and gas composition sequence.
[0020] Furthermore, the method also includes an active intervention mechanism: when the AI algorithm determines that the risk level is high, the edge microprocessor triggers the BMS to perform current limiting, power off or cooling system startup operations, and pushes emergency warning information to the user terminal.
[0021] Furthermore, the AI algorithm is trained through accelerated aging experiment data, extreme environment test data and a variety of typical failure scenario data to reduce false alarm rates and missed alarm rates.
[0022] Furthermore, the step S3 is specifically implemented as follows:
[0023] S3.1: Sensor data is uploaded to the cloud at regular intervals (e.g., every minute) or event-triggered (e.g., when a threshold is exceeded); this includes:
[0024] Air pressure / deformation data: obtained by real-time monitoring of air pressure fluctuations inside the battery cell and shell deformation through embedded sensors;
[0025] Impact event data: records physical impact during transportation or use, and combines accelerometers to capture time, intensity, and direction information;
[0026] BMS timing data: collected core parameters including voltage, current, temperature, SOC / SOH, etc.
[0027] Gas composition data: records the time-series changes in the concentration of characteristic gases such as H2 and CO, and generates the slope of the gas concentration-time curve (for example, an H2 concentration slope > 10 ppm / min is considered abnormal);
[0028] S3.2: Analyze time series data using cloud-based AI algorithms (such as LSTM neural networks), train a safety status model, and dynamically output the risk level (normal / warning / dangerous). The process is as follows:
[0029] (1) Data cleaning and alignment:
[0030] Eliminate outliers (such as those caused by sensor failure) and fill in missing values (such as linear interpolation);
[0031] Unified timestamps ensure time synchronization of multi-source data (e.g. alignment of charge and discharge cycles with shock events);
[0032] Added data consistency check: If the air pressure suddenly rises by more than 5% but the gas composition is normal, it is determined to be sensor drift, and the air pressure sensor is automatically calibrated (calibration coefficient: K = initial air pressure / current air pressure average, effective after 3 consecutive calibrations);
[0033] (2) Multidimensional feature analysis:
[0034] (2.1) Time domain and frequency domain feature extraction:
[0035] Air pressure / deformation characteristics: calculate the air pressure change rate, cumulative deformation, and pressure curve asymmetry;
[0036] Impact characteristics: extract impact peak value, duration, and energy spectrum density;
[0037] BMS dynamic characteristics: Generate derived indicators including voltage / current differential, internal resistance change, temperature gradient, etc.;
[0038] Gas characteristics: calculate the H2 / CO concentration peak, concentration rising rate, and characteristic gas concentration ratio (e.g., if H2 / CO>2.5, it is determined that the electrolyte is decomposed);
[0039] (2.2) Construction of correlation features:
[0040] Cross-analyze the correlation between sudden pressure rise and temperature anomalies (such as precursors to thermal runaway);
[0041] Combined with the voltage drop amplitude and recovery rate after the impact event (to evaluate the impact of mechanical damage on electrochemical performance);
[0042] A three-dimensional correlation model of "pressure rise rate-characteristic gas concentration-temperature gradient" was constructed. When the three are synchronously abnormal (such as pressure rise rate > 0.2kPa / min, H2 rise rate > 15ppm / min, and temperature gradient > 2°C / min), it is determined to be a precursor to thermal runaway.
[0043] (3) Model training and algorithm selection:
[0044] A multimodal fusion network is used: the GRU / LSTM layer processes BMS time series data (capturing long-term dependencies); the CNN branch analyzes the spectral characteristics of the impact event and the pressure curve pattern; the attention mechanism weights key features (such as sudden pressure fluctuations or high-frequency impacts); and the Transformer layer performs weighted attention on the gas composition time series data (focusing on moments of concentration mutation).
[0045] Input splicing: merge the pressure sequence, shock event vector, BMS data matrix, and gas composition sequence into a unified input tensor;
[0046] Loss function design: Comprehensive safety risk classification loss (such as thermal runaway probability) and regression loss (such as SOH attenuation prediction) to characterize gas concentration prediction loss;
[0047] (4) Model verification and deployment optimization:
[0048] Verification methods include:
[0049] Verification using accelerated aging test data (e.g., 400-cycle charge-discharge pressure-capacity correlation test);
[0050] Separate independent test sets to evaluate false alarm and false negative rates (e.g., simulate safety valve rupture events);
[0051] Closed-loop optimization of landing applications, including:
[0052] Real-time risk assessment: deploy edge computing modules to dynamically output risk levels (low / medium / high);
[0053] Active intervention mechanism: triggers the BMS to execute current limiting, power off, or start the cooling system (e.g., emergency response when hydrogen concentration exceeds the threshold);
[0054] Continuous iteration: Collect new data through the cloud and regularly update model parameters (such as digital twin-driven SOH calibration).
[0055] The present invention also claims protection for a lithium battery safety monitoring system based on multi-sensor fusion, comprising:

The air pressure sensor and inertial navigation sensor work together to collect battery internal pressure and motion status data, which are uploaded to the cloud platform through the communication module to achieve safety status assessment.

[0070] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0071] The embodiment of the present invention provides a lithium battery safety monitoring method based on multi-sensor fusion, such as Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:
[0072] S1: The pressure sensor continuously monitors the internal pressure of the battery and performs temperature compensation correction based on the temperature sensor data. When the corrected pressure value exceeds the preset range, a sealing or bulging warning is triggered.
[0073] S2: The IMU sensor collects acceleration, angular velocity, vibration frequency, and posture data, and determines fall or collision events based on scene-adaptive thresholds.
[0074] S3: Sensor data is uploaded to the cloud at fixed intervals or event triggers, and analyzed by AI algorithms to generate security risk levels;
[0075] S4: The user terminal receives and displays the risk assessment results and warning information.
[0076] The temperature compensation correction in step S1 is implemented based on the ideal gas state equation PV=nRT, where P is the gas pressure in kPa, V is the gas volume, L and n are the amount of gas substance in mol, R is the ideal gas constant, which is 8.314 J / (mol·K), and T is the gas temperature in K. The correction formula is:
[0077] P0=P 测 ×T0 / T 测 ;
[0078] Among them, P0 is the corrected air pressure reference value, unit is kPa, P 测The pressure inside the battery is measured in real time by the pressure sensor in kPa. T0 is the absolute temperature corresponding to 25°C in K. T 测 It is the real-time absolute temperature in K.
[0079] Step S1 also includes gas composition correlation analysis: when the air pressure value is abnormal, if the gas composition sensor detects that the H2 concentration is greater than 50ppm or the CO concentration is greater than 20ppm, the warning level is automatically upgraded.
[0080] The AI algorithm described in step S3 adopts a multimodal fusion network, including a GRU / LSTM layer to process BMS time series data, a CNN branch to analyze the spectral characteristics of the impact event, and a Transformer layer to perform attention weighting on the gas composition time series data. The input data includes air pressure sequence, impact event vector, BMS data matrix and gas composition sequence.
[0081] The method also includes an active intervention mechanism: when the AI algorithm determines that the risk level is high, the edge microprocessor triggers the BMS to perform current limiting, power off or cooling system startup operations, and pushes emergency warning information to the user terminal.
[0082] The AI algorithm is trained using accelerated aging experiment data, extreme environment test data, and data from a variety of typical failure scenarios to reduce false alarm rates and missed alarm rates.
[0083] The specific implementation process of this method is as follows:
[0084] S1: Battery sealing and swelling monitoring.
[0085] During the production phase, a fixed amount of gas is injected into the battery and sealed, and the internal pressure is continuously monitored using a manometer.
[0086] Added temperature compensation mechanism: Combined with the ambient temperature collected by the built-in temperature sensor, based on the ideal gas state equation (PV=nRT) (P is the gas pressure in kPa, V is the gas volume in L, n is the amount of gas in mol, R is the ideal gas constant of 8.314J / (mol·K), and T is the gas temperature in K), the pressure reference value is corrected in real time (correction formula: P0=P 测 ×T0 / T 测 , where P0 is the corrected air pressure reference value in kPa, P 测 The unit is kPa, which is the internal pressure value of the battery measured by the pressure sensor in real time. T0 is the absolute temperature unit K corresponding to 25℃. 测 is the real-time absolute temperature unit K).
[0087] If the air pressure exceeds the preset range (e.g., it drops by more than 5% or rises by more than 10%), it is judged as a seal failure or bulging risk, triggering an early warning.
[0088] At the same time, the gas composition sensor is linked. If the H2 concentration is detected to be greater than 50ppm or the CO concentration is greater than 20ppm, it is determined to be a risk of micro-short circuit of the battery cell and the warning level is upgraded.
[0089] S2: External force impact monitoring.
[0090] The IMU sensor collects battery acceleration, vibration frequency and posture data in real time.
[0091] If the instantaneous acceleration exceeds the threshold (such as >5g) or the abnormal vibration continues, it is determined to be a drop or collision event, and the impact intensity, timestamp, and attitude angle change are recorded.
[0092] S3: Data upload and AI analysis.

When the three are synchronously abnormal (such as pressure rise rate > 0.2 kPa / min, H2 rise rate > 15 ppm / min, temperature gradient > 2 °C / min), it is determined to be a precursor to thermal runaway.
[0113] S3.3 Model training and algorithm selection:
[0114] (1) A multimodal fusion network is used: the GRU / LSTM layer processes the BMS time series data (capturing long-term dependencies).

The process is as follows: (1) Data cleaning and alignment: Eliminate outliers and fill in missing values; Unified timestamps to ensure time synchronization of multi-source data; Added data consistency check: If the air pressure suddenly rises by more than 5% but the gas composition is normal, it is determined to be sensor drift and the air pressure sensor is automatically calibrated; (2) Multidimensional feature analysis: (2.1) Time domain and frequency domain feature extraction: Air pressure / deformation characteristics: calculate the air pressure change rate, cumulative deformation, and pressure curve asymmetry; Impact characteristics: extract impact peak value, duration, and energy spectrum density; BMS dynamic characteristics: Generate derived indicators including voltage / current differential, internal resistance change, and temperature gradient; Gas characteristics: calculate H2 / CO concentration peak, concentration rising rate, and characteristic gas concentration ratio; (2.2) Construction of correlation features: Cross-analyze the correlation between sudden pressure rise and temperature anomaly; Combined with the voltage drop amplitude and recovery rate after the impact event; A three-dimensional correlation model of "pressure rise rate-characteristic gas concentration-temperature gradient" is constructed. When the three are synchronously abnormal, it is determined to be a precursor to thermal runaway. (3) Model training and algorithm selection: A multimodal fusion network is used: the GRU / LSTM layer processes BMS time series data; the CNN branch analyzes the spectral characteristics and pressure curve patterns of the impact event; the attention mechanism weights key features; and the Transformer layer performs attention weighting on the gas composition time series data. Input splicing: merge the pressure sequence, shock event vector, BMS data matrix, and gas composition sequence into a unified input tensor; Loss function design: Comprehensive safety risk classification loss and regression loss function to predict gas concentration loss; (4) Model verification and deployment optimization: Verification methods include: Verified using accelerated aging test data; Divide independent test sets to evaluate false alarm rate and missed alarm rate; Closed-loop optimization of landing applications, including: Real-time risk assessment: deploy edge computing modules to dynamically output risk levels; Active intervention mechanism: triggers the BMS to execute current limiting, power off or start the cooling system; Continuous iteration: Collect new data through the cloud and update model parameters regularly.
