Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of battery safety monitoring technology, and specifically to a thermal runaway risk assessment method, system, and storage medium that achieves fair integration of multiple indicators through a dynamic weight allocation mechanism. The method is particularly suitable for cross-system safety performance comparison of ternary lithium batteries, lithium iron phosphate batteries, sodium ion batteries, etc. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of battery technology, lithium-ion batteries have deeply penetrated into core energy scenarios such as electric vehicles and energy storage power stations, while new technologies such as sodium-ion batteries and high-nickel ternary systems are rapidly rising due to their energy density and cost advantages. However, the risk of thermal runaway that comes with the diversification of battery systems has become increasingly prominent - the chain reaction formed by the interweaving of gas explosion, toxic release and heat accumulation has become a major hidden danger threatening personal safety and facility integrity. Different types of batteries have significant differences in performance structure, chemical system and thermal stability. Therefore, whether their thermal safety is better than that of existing mature battery systems has become a core issue of current research. Therefore, how to establish a scientific, objective and comparable evaluation mechanism to systematically compare and quantitatively determine the hazards of different types of batteries during thermal runaway is of great significance.
[0003] However, existing battery thermal runaway risk assessment methods mostly rely on single thermal parameters (such as starting temperature, maximum temperature rise, etc.) or empirical judgments, and fail to fully cover multi-dimensional indicators such as gas release, explosiveness, toxicity and heat release intensity. They lack a unified mathematical modeling and weight processing mechanism, resulting in the assessment results being easily affected by subjective factors and difficult to adapt to the evaluation needs brought about by the diversity of new materials and new systems. Safety design lags behind technological iteration, posing a risk of misleading industry decision-making.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to build a thermal runaway risk assessment method that is driven by multiple indicators, data-adaptive, and physically interpretable to improve the accuracy and practicality of battery thermal safety assessment. Summary of the Invention

[0043] The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0044] Example 1:
[0045] This embodiment provides a battery thermal runaway risk assessment method, comprising the following steps:
[0046] S1. Obtain multi-dimensional risk parameters during battery thermal runaway , , and , The parameters are constructed into a multi-dimensional risk indicator matrix;
[0047] S2. Perform variance statistics on each parameter index to obtain the variance value of each parameter index ;
[0048] S3. According to variance Calculate the weight of each parameter , which is and proportional to;
[0049] S4. For each battery sample, multiply the parameter value by its weight and sum them to obtain a weighted comprehensive score;
[0050] S5. Grade the battery thermal runaway risk based on the weighted comprehensive score.
[0051] Specifically, the currently commercial Square lithium iron phosphate battery, Square ternary nickel cobalt manganese oxide lithium ion battery, For example, for prismatic sodium-ion batteries, an expert scoring matrix of (1, 1, 1) is used. This matrix allows domain experts to vote on the importance of different risk parameters, such as explosiveness and toxicity. For example, if an expert believes that the toxicity parameter is more harmful in an actual accident, their weight can be manually increased to prevent the algorithm from underestimating the toxicity impact due to data volatility. This fusion of subjective and objective experience prevents underestimation of key risks due to data distribution characteristics, enhancing the engineering practicality and scenario-adaptive flexibility of the assessment results.
[0052] First, the target battery cell is fully charged and placed in an inert gas sealed chamber. The thermal runaway process is triggered by unilateral heating, and the pressure change rate inside the chamber is monitored in real time. When the pressure change rate is continuously lower than The main outgassing stage is determined to be over when the gas cloud is fully degassing. At this time, the total volume of the gas cloud, the peak pressure and the concentration of gas components are collected. The gas components include key components such as hydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide.
[0053] Based on the gas parameters collected in the above experiments, the gas cloud explosion risk ERL and gas cloud toxicity of the gas cloud released by the battery are calculated respectively. Heat of burning gas clouds .
[0054] The gas cloud explosion risk ERL is determined by the gas cloud upper explosion limit UEL and the gas cloud lower explosion limit LEL. The specific calculation formula is as follows:
[0055]
[0056] Based on the gas and The effective dose fraction of the gas toxicity quantitative evaluation calculated by the concentration is referenced Standard calculations;
[0057] The total heat release capacity of the mixed gas is calculated based on the total mass of the gas and the unit combustion heat:
[0058]
[0059] in, For the corresponding quality , ;
[0060] Take the equivalent conversion factor ;
[0061] is the explosion coefficient, which is taken when the ground explodes ;
[0062] is the mass of the mixed gas generated by battery thermal runaway, ;
[0063] The combustion heat of the mixed gas generated by the thermal runaway of the battery, ;
[0064] Unit mass The heat of explosive explosion, .
[0065] As shown in Table 1, the parameters of 30 groups of samples such as ternary lithium batteries, sodium ion batteries, and lithium iron phosphate batteries obtained under unified experimental conditions are constructed into a standardized database. These parameters include material system, test environment, capacity, and calculated 、 、 values, forming a thermal runaway feature dataset covering different battery systems.

[0068] Then, enter the core weight allocation stage, 、 、 The variance statistics of each parameter are performed, a three-dimensional risk parameter matrix is constructed, and its ranking technology based on the similarity of the ideal solution is calculated. , principal component analysis As well as the scores in classic evaluation methods such as the median method, to form a comparative verification with the method of this embodiment.
[0069] In order to verify the impact of each evaluation parameter on the final result, each parameter index is standardized and a standardized linear regression is performed.
[0070]
[0071]
[0072] in is the standardized parameter index, Indicates the Battery samples, Indicates the variables;
[0073] Indicates the The battery samples are in The original value of the variable;
[0074] Indicates the The sample mean of the variable;
[0075] Indicates the The standard deviation of the variables;
[0076] a. 、 Corresponding representation 、 、 The regression coefficient of the parameter indicator, i.e., the weight, reflects its influence on the final score;
[0077] is the constant term of the regression model, controlling the overall offset;
[0078] For the comprehensive rating.
[0079] The final result is as follows Figures 1 to 3 As shown, among which a, 、 The indicators vary greatly. Because different indicators have different dimensions and distribution ranges, if they are not weighted, the scoring results will be biased towards variables with large fluctuations, causing the actual contribution of each parameter in the evaluation results to deviate from the initial weighting.
[0080] Therefore, in order to achieve the same effect of each parameter index on the final result, this embodiment 、 、 Perform variance statistics on the three indicators to obtain the variance value of each indicator , based on the principle of equal variance contribution, the inverse standard deviation normalization method is used to calculate the weight of each indicator. The specific weight formula is:
[0081]
[0082] The derivation process of the formula is as follows:
[0083] The variance changes of the overall rating results are as follows:
[0084]
[0085] Assuming that each scoring result is independent, the above formula can be further written as:
[0086]
[0087] So the contribution of each variable to the variance is:
[0088]
[0089] So assuming each variable contributes equally the contribution is as follows:
[0090]
[0091]
[0092] Finally, the normalized weight expression is formed:
[0093]
[0094] in, For the The weight of each risk parameter, For the The variance of the risk parameter, is the total number of risk parameters, The number of indicators used to weight participation scores.
[0095] Then, the three standardized parameter indicators of each battery sample are multiplied by their corresponding weights and summed to obtain a comprehensive risk score. The comprehensive risk score It can be used as a quantitative basis for the battery thermal runaway hazard level.
[0096] All battery samples are sorted according to the comprehensive risk score and visualized through bubble charts. The bubble diameter and The colors are divided into risk levels according to the preset thresholds. The results are as follows Figure 4Compared with the unweighted method, the equal variance contribution method in this embodiment significantly reduces the scoring deviation caused by different indicator volatility, unifying the impact of all indicators on the final result to the same value of 0.33. In particular, it improves some low variance indicators, such as The underestimated system scores improve the accuracy and rationality of risk identification.

[0099] Specifically, the parameter acquisition module receives the raw data input of the battery thermal runaway experiment through the sensor interface, including the UEL and LEL values output by the gas concentration sensor, the gas temperature data recorded by the thermal imager, and the cavity pressure changes monitored by the pressure sensor. The built-in processor of the parameter acquisition module calculates the gas cloud explosion risk in real time. and Equivalent heat release :
[0100]
[0101]
[0102] Directly obtain the basis Standard calculated toxic exposure dose The output of the variance calculation module is connected to the input of the variance calculation module through a high-speed data bus. 、 、 Parameter groups are transmitted in real time.
[0103] Variance calculation module Chip passed After receiving the parameter group transmitted by the parameter acquisition module, the interface performs variance statistics calculation on the current parameter group. The pin is directly connected to the input register of the weight distribution module, and the calculated variance value is written in real time in the form of a digital signal.
[0104] Weight distribution module After the kernel reads the variance value from the input register, it executes the fixed core algorithm:
[0105]
[0106] Its output is through The serial bus connects the input buffer of the score generation module and 、 、 The corresponding three-way weight values are packaged and transmitted.
[0107] Rating generation module The processor performs two tasks simultaneously: on the one hand, The channel reads the current sample from the shared memory of the parameter acquisition module 、 、 value, on the other hand through The serial bus receives the data transmitted by the weight distribution module The weighted composite score is then calculated.
[0108] The final output is through The interface is connected to the display device to visualize the scoring results in the form of a bubble chart, with the bubble diameter mapped The color space is divided into three zones of red, yellow and green according to the preset risk level thresholds, and the structured assessment report is transmitted to the cloud server through the Ethernet interface.
