Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of automobile detection, and in particular relates to an automobile remote fault diagnosis system and method. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing development of new energy electric vehicles, electric vehicles have gained more and more support and attention due to their green and environmentally friendly nature. As the core power of electric vehicles, the performance of batteries is directly related to the vehicle's range, safety and service life.

[0003] The prior art (publication number: CN119986409A) discloses a battery micro-short circuit fault diagnosis method and system, which includes: obtaining real-time voltage data of each battery in a battery module, denoising to obtain a voltage matrix; calculating a dynamic reference voltage sequence of each battery in the voltage matrix within the sliding window length, and extracting the eigenvalues ​​of each battery at different times; calculating the correlation coefficient between the voltage of each battery in the sliding window at different times and the reference voltage; forming a feature point matrix of the battery module based on the eigenvalues ​​and the correlation coefficients; calculating a dynamic reference feature point sequence based on the feature point matrix, and calculating the improved Fréchet distance between the feature point sequence of each battery and the dynamic reference feature point sequence, and using the distance value as the abnormality score of each battery; and then judging whether each battery has a short circuit fault.

The single voltage data cannot fully reflect the internal state of the battery, which can easily lead to reduced diagnostic accuracy. At the same time, after the fault is diagnosed, the lack of other data support makes it difficult to determine the specific time when the short circuit fault occurred, and the fault level cannot be diagnosed, making it impossible to take preventive measures in time, which may cause personal or economic losses.

[0074] The embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle remote fault diagnosis method. Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides a flow chart of a vehicle remote fault diagnosis method. The method comprises the following steps:

[0079] A remote automobile fault diagnosis method provided by an embodiment of the present invention periodically collects vehicle operating data, accurately determines the type of battery fault based on a battery capacity-open-circuit voltage mapping table, and can further locate the time of a single-cell short-circuit fault and assess the degree of the short circuit, effectively improving the accuracy and efficiency of fault diagnosis.

[0080] In one implementation, the threshold φ is the result obtained from experimental data statistics, and the power-open-circuit voltage mapping table records the open-circuit voltage corresponding to the battery at different power levels under normal circumstances; the fault types include single-cell short-circuit faults and multi-cell short-circuit faults; the target battery cell is any one of the battery cells in the battery pack; wherein, the power-open-circuit voltage mapping table is obtained by experimenters based on historical data statistics and input into the battery management system database in advance.

[0081] In one embodiment, the operation data of the target vehicle within a preset time period is acquired at a preset cycle; the operation data includes the current open circuit voltage signal t0(t) and the remaining power of the battery pack, and the operation data also includes the terminal voltage signal V of each battery cell in the battery pack. m (t) and current signal I(t);

[0082] In one implementation, the target vehicle's operating data within a preset time period is obtained, including the current open circuit voltage signal of the battery pack, the remaining power, and the terminal voltage signal V of each battery cell. m (t) and current signal I(t), which can reflect the real-time working status of the battery pack and each battery cell, and provide a data basis for subsequent battery performance evaluation and fault diagnosis; based on the collected detailed operating data, the status of the battery pack and each battery cell can be analyzed, for example, by monitoring the terminal voltage signal V of each battery cell m The dynamic changes of the current signal I(t) and the current signal I(t) can detect battery cell problems in a timely manner.

[0083] In one embodiment, a battery capacity-open circuit voltage mapping table is searched based on the remaining power to determine the current threshold φ, and the battery fault type is determined based on the relationship between V0(t) and the threshold φ. The battery capacity-open circuit voltage mapping table records the corresponding open circuit voltages of the battery at different power levels under normal circumstances. Fault types include single-cell short circuit faults and multi-cell short circuit faults.

[0084] In one implementation, a threshold value φ is determined by looking up a power-to-open-circuit voltage mapping table and comparing it with the current open-circuit voltage signal of the battery pack to diagnose whether the battery is in a faulty state. This method can distinguish between normal and faulty states, improving the accuracy of fault diagnosis. Based on the relationship with the threshold value φ, the specific fault type of the battery can be quickly determined, whether it is a single-cell short-circuit fault or a multi-cell short-circuit fault.

[0085] In one embodiment, if the fault type is determined to be a single cell short circuit fault, the V m (t) and I(t) to calculate the pseudo open circuit voltage signal OV of the target battery cell p (t), the specific formula is:

[0086] OV p (t) = V m (t)+R0(SC(t))·I(t) (1)

[0087] Among them, V m (t) is the battery terminal voltage measured at sampling time t, I(t) is the battery current measured at sampling time t, and R0(SC(t)) is the resistance corresponding to the charge state at time t, which is obtained from the relationship table;

[0088] According to OV p (t) Get the differential pseudo open circuit voltage signal ΔOV p (t), the formula is:

[0089] ΔOV p (t)=0V p (t)-OV p (t-1) (2)

[0090] According to the differential pseudo open circuit voltage ΔOV p (t) Calculate the short-circuit fault threshold ξ and compare ξ with V m (t) is compared to perform short-circuit fault diagnosis and short-circuit fault time location. In order to enhance the robustness to large current pulses that may cause non-fault voltage transients, a scaling factor γ greater than 1 is introduced to relax the threshold ξ. The specific process is:

[0091] ξ - =γ·F(ΔOV p ,α) (3)

[0092] ξ + =γ·F(ΔOV p ,1-α) (4)

[0093] Among them, ξ - is the lower threshold, ξ +is the upper threshold, α represents the probability of abnormal fluctuation allowed under normal conditions, and the α interval is [0,1];

[0094] If V m (t)<ξ - , it is diagnosed as the start of a short-circuit fault; the sampling time t at this time is the fault start time;

[0095] If V m (t ′ )>ξ + , the diagnosis is that the short circuit fault ends; the sampling time at this time is t ′ This is the fault end time;

[0096] The fault time is located based on the fault start time and fault end time.

[0097] In one implementation, the relationship table is obtained by the experimenter based on historical data statistics and input into the battery management system database in advance. For example, at a certain time t, when the remaining battery power is 50%, the relationship table query obtains R0 = 0.001Ω, and the terminal voltage V m (t) = 3.5V, current I(t) = 10A, α = 0.005, substitute into formula (1) to get the pseudo open circuit voltage OV p (t), and then use formula (1) to get the pseudo open circuit voltage OV at time t-1 p (t-1), the differential pseudo open circuit voltage ΔOV is obtained by formula (2) p (t), according to formula (3) and formula (4), the short-circuit fault lower threshold ξ is obtained - and upper threshold ξ + , the terminal voltage V m (t) and the lower threshold ξ - and upper threshold ξ + By comparison, the fault time can be diagnosed.

[0098] In one embodiment, according to ΔOV p (t) Calculate the short-circuit current signal I sc (t) and short-circuit resistance signal R sc (t), the specific process is:

[0099] Short-circuit fault causes short-circuit current I sc (t) Leakage, this current flows through the resistor R0, and the corresponding voltage drop appears as a residual value ΔOV p (t) in:

[0100] ΔOV p (t)=R0·I sc (t) (5)

[0101] So the short-circuit current is calculated as:

[0102]

[0103] According to R sc (t) is compared with the historical short-circuit resistance threshold to diagnose the degree of battery short-circuit fault:

[0104] Considering that the short-circuit branch is connected in parallel with the battery terminal, the terminal voltage V at the time of the fault is m (t) reflects the voltage on the short-circuit path. The short-circuit resistance calculation process is:

[0105]

[0106] R sc Compared with the resistance threshold, the resistance threshold is obtained by historical experimental statistics. The resistance threshold includes two resistance thresholds, namely the first resistance threshold and the second resistance threshold. The first resistance threshold is greater than the second resistance threshold. If R sc < the second resistance threshold, the short circuit fault level is high risk; if R sc > the first resistance threshold, the short circuit fault level is low risk; if the second resistance threshold ≤ R sc < the first resistance threshold, the short-circuit fault level is medium risk.

[0107] In one implementation, battery short-circuit faults can be detected in a timely manner by accurately calculating short-circuit current and resistance signals. When a short circuit occurs, the voltage drop caused by the leakage current appears as a residual value. The short-circuit current and resistance are calculated using a formula to provide key data support for fault diagnosis. The calculated short-circuit resistance is compared with the historical short-circuit resistance threshold to effectively diagnose the degree of battery short-circuit fault. The short-circuit path voltage reflected by the terminal voltage when the short-circuit branch is connected in parallel with the battery terminal is analyzed to achieve accurate calculation of the short-circuit resistance and improve diagnostic accuracy. In actual detection scenarios, the first resistance threshold is 20mΩ and the second resistance threshold is 5mΩ; when a battery short-circuit fault occurs, R sc will be less than 50mΩ, when R sc The temperature rise rate between 20mΩ and 50mΩ is 0.5℃-2℃ / min, which will cause thermal runaway and prompt maintenance warning. sc <5mΩ, the temperature rise rate is higher than 5℃ / min, there may be a risk of explosion, and a danger warning is issued; when 5mΩ≤R sc When the resistance is <20mΩ, the temperature rises by 2℃-5℃ / min, and a fire may occur within 10 minutes, and an early warning is issued.

[0119] If the fault type is determined to be a single cell short circuit fault, the V m (t) and I(t) to calculate the pseudo open circuit voltage signal OV of the target battery cell p (t) The process is:

[0120] OV p (t) = V m (t)+R0(SC(t))·I(t)

[0121] Among them, V m (t) is the battery terminal voltage measured at sampling time t, I(t) is the battery current measured at sampling time t, and R0(SC(t)) is the resistance corresponding to the charge state at time t, which is obtained from the relationship table;

[0122] According to OV p (t) Get the differential pseudo open circuit voltage signal ΔOV p (t), the process is;

[0123] ΔOV p (t)=0V p (t)-OV p (t-1)

[0124] According to the differential pseudo open circuit voltage ΔOV p (t) Calculate the short-circuit fault threshold ξ and compare ξ with V m (t) is compared to perform short-circuit fault diagnosis and short-circuit fault time location. In order to enhance the robustness to large current pulses that may cause non-fault voltage transients, a scaling factor γ greater than 1 is introduced to relax the threshold ξ.

[0134] ΔOV p (t)=R0·I sc (t)

[0135] So the short-circuit current is calculated as:

[0136]

[0137] Considering that the short-circuit branch is connected in parallel with the battery terminal, the terminal voltage V at the time of the fault is m (t) reflects the voltage on the short-circuit path. The short-circuit resistance calculation process is:

[0138]

[0139] R scCompared with the resistance threshold, the resistance threshold is obtained by historical experimental statistics. The resistance threshold includes two resistance thresholds, namely the first resistance threshold and the second resistance threshold. The first resistance threshold is greater than the second resistance threshold. If R sc < the second resistance threshold, the short circuit fault level is high risk; if R sc > the first resistance threshold, the short circuit fault level is low risk; if the second resistance threshold ≤ R sc < the first resistance threshold, the short-circuit fault level is medium risk.
