[0028] The application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0029] As shown in the accompanying Figures 1 to 10 , the energy storage uniform heating system based on active adjustment of the state of the battery cell.

[0031] As Figure 3 , 4 , 5 shows that the first pulley 11 and the second pulley 12 are rotatably provided at both ends in the central passage 6, and at least one of the first pulley 11 and the second pulley 12 is a driving pulley driven by an adjusting motor; a liquid-constrained conveyor belt 17 extending along the X direction is arranged in the central passage 6, the liquid-constrained conveyor belt 17 is heat-conducting rubber, and the heat-conducting rubber is composed of a rubber matrix, a heat-conducting filler and an additive. The rubber matrix imparts flexibility and elasticity to the material, such as silicone rubber and nitrile rubber; the heat-conducting filler is aluminum oxide, aluminum nitride and boron nitride, etc., which has high thermal conductivity and can significantly improve the thermal conductivity of the rubber, and its principle is that the heat-conducting principle of the heat-conducting rubber mainly depends on the heat-conducting network formed by the heat-conducting filler in the rubber matrix. When heat is transferred, heat is transferred from a high-temperature area to a low-temperature area through the contact between the heat-conducting fillers and the conduction of phonons (lattice vibrations), thereby achieving the purpose of heat dissipation; the upper and lower ends of the liquid-constrained conveyor belt 17 are in sliding or less than 0.5mm gap cooperation with the upper and lower inner walls of the battery cell array liquid cooling shell 5.
[0032] As Figure 2, liquid constraint conveyor belt 17 two ends of the transmission across the first pulley 11 and the second pulley 12 respectively; the hot oil outlet 15, a cold oil inlet 14 and b cold oil inlet 16 are in the liquid constraint conveyor belt 17 enclosed range under the perspective view; the liquid constraint conveyor belt 17 is hollowed out with a circle of belt-shaped mouth 18 on the path along the length direction of itself at the middle height, and the central passage 6 communicates the space in the liquid constraint conveyor belt 17 enclosed range through the circle of belt-shaped mouth 18; the liquid constraint conveyor belt 17 includes liquid constraint conveyor belt a section 17a and liquid constraint conveyor belt b section 17b parallel along the X direction; the first follow-up assembly 7 and the second follow-up assembly 8 are arranged in the central passage 6, and the upper and lower ends of the first follow-up assembly 7 and the second follow-up assembly 8 are in sliding or less than 0.5mm gap fit with the upper and lower inner walls of the battery cell array liquid cooling shell 5, and the gap has little or no effect on the flow of heat transfer oil; the first follow-up assembly 7 is between the hot oil outlet 15 and the a cold oil inlet 14, and the second follow-up assembly 8 is between the hot oil outlet 15 and the b cold oil inlet 16; the first follow-up assembly 7 and the second follow-up assembly 8 respectively follow the liquid constraint conveyor belt a section 17a and the liquid constraint conveyor belt b section 17b to displace synchronously.
[0033] As shown in Figure 3 , 4 , 5, the first follow-up assembly 7 and the second follow-up assembly 8 each include a isolation block 21, b isolation block 20 and shuttle block 22, and the a isolation block 21 and the b isolation block 20 form a belt body shuttle gap 23, and the middle height between the a isolation block 21 and the b isolation block 20 is integrally connected through the shuttle block 22.
[0034] The shuttle block 22 of the first follow-up assembly 7 moves through the belt-shaped mouth 18 on the liquid constraint conveyor belt a section 17a, and the liquid constraint conveyor belt b section 17b shuttles through the belt body shuttle gap 23 on the first follow-up assembly 7 along the X direction; the a isolation block 21 of the first follow-up assembly 7 is integrally fixed on the liquid constraint conveyor belt a section 17a.
[0035] The shuttle block 22 of the second follow-up assembly 8 moves through the belt-shaped mouth 18 on the liquid constraint conveyor belt b section 17b, and the liquid constraint conveyor belt a section 17a shuttles through the belt body shuttle gap 23 on the second follow-up assembly 8 along the X direction; the a isolation block 21 of the second follow-up assembly 8 is integrally fixed on the liquid constraint conveyor belt a section 17a.
[0036] The first follow-up assembly 7 and the second follow-up assembly 8 each cut off the central passage 6 at the respective positions; and the a isolation block 21 of the first follow-up assembly 7 and the a isolation block 21 of the second follow-up assembly 8 divide the enclosed range of the liquid constraint conveyor belt 17 into a first enclosed area 10a, a second enclosed area 10b and a third enclosed area 10c; the hot oil outlet 15, the a cold oil inlet 14 and the b cold oil inlet 16 are respectively in the first enclosed area 10a, the second enclosed area 10b and the third enclosed area 10c.
[0037] The space in the liquid-cooled shell 5 of the battery cell array is divided into a first section 4A, a second section 4B and a third section 4C along the X direction; the first follower assembly 7 is at the boundary between the first section 4A and the second section 4B, and the second follower assembly 8 is at the boundary between the second section 4B and the third section 4C; the liquid cooling channels 9 in the first section 4A, the second section 4B and the third section 4C are respectively denoted as left-first liquid cooling channels 9a, central-back liquid cooling channels 9b and right-first liquid cooling channels 9c.
[0038] Working principle:
[0039] The heat transfer process of the liquid flow of the liquid cooling is shown in Figure 7 and 9
[0040] The cold cooling oil is continuously introduced into the first enclosed area 10a and the third enclosed area 10c through the cold oil introduction ports 14 and 16, respectively, while the hot oil is continuously discharged from the second enclosed area 10b through the hot oil discharge port 15;
[0041] The cooling oil in the first enclosed area 10a enters the central passage 6 of the first section 4A through the edge strip port 18 under the action of positive pressure, and the cooling oil entering the central passage 6 of the first section 4A is divided into several left-first liquid cooling channels 9a under the action of positive pressure, and then flows to the edge passage 50 of the first section 4A along the Y direction after flowing through the left-first liquid cooling channels 9a;
[0042] At the same time, the cooling oil in the second enclosed area 10b enters the central passage 6 of the third section 4C through the edge strip port 18 under the action of positive pressure, and the cooling oil entering the central passage 6 of the third section 4C is divided into several right-first liquid cooling channels 9c under the action of positive pressure, and then flows to the edge passage 50 of the third section 4C along the Y direction after flowing through the right-first liquid cooling channels 9a;
[0043] Subsequently, the cooling oil in the edge passage 50 of the first section 4A and the third section 4C converges into the edge passage 50 of the second section 4B under the action of oil pressure;
[0044] Subsequently, the cooling oil in the edge passage 50 of the second section 4B is divided into each central-back liquid cooling channel 9b, and then flows to the central passage 6 of the second section 4B along the Y direction after flowing through the central-back liquid cooling channel 9b, and then the cooling oil entering the central passage 6 of the second section 4B enters the second enclosed area 10b through the strip port 18 of the second section 4B, thereby completing a complete flow cycle;
[0045] In the above process, the cooling oil first passes through the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c to pre-absorb part of the heat and warm up, and then converges into the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b. The cooling oil that has been warmed up for the first time enters the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b and continues to absorb the heat of the rectangular battery cell 3 nearby, so that the temperature of the cooling oil in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is significantly higher than that of the cooling oil in the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c. This causes the heat absorption efficiency of the cooling oil in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b to be low.
[0046] In the present solution, although the temperature of the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is high, the cooling oil in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is converged from the cooling oil in the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c. Therefore, the flow rate of the liquid in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is significantly higher than that of the cooling oil in the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c. The faster the flow rate, the greater the turbulent effect, the higher the heat exchange efficiency, and the higher the heat dissipation efficiency. Therefore, the high temperature of the cooling oil in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is compensated, and the inconsistency of the cooling efficiency of the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b and the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c is eliminated to some extent.
[0047] However, the heat generation power of the battery cell array 1 in the battery cell array liquid cooling shell 5 has at least two power levels, high power and low power, under different working conditions.
[0048] If the present solution is a static structure:
[0049] When the heat generation power of the battery cell array 1 is in the low power level:
[0050] The cooling oil first passes through the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c to absorb a small amount of heat, and then converges into the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b. The temperature of the cooling oil in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is not significantly higher than that of the cooling oil in the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c. At this time, the difference in heat absorption efficiency of the cooling oil caused by the temperature difference between the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b and the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c is not large. However, if the flow rate of the liquid in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is still significantly higher than that of the cooling oil in the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c under this condition, the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b will have a greater heat absorption efficiency than the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c due to the high flow rate. This causes the cooling efficiency of the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b and the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c to be inconsistent.
[0051] When the heat generation power of the battery cell array 1 is in the high power level:
[0052] The cooling oil absorbs a large amount of heat in the process of passing through the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c, and then the temperature of the cooling oil in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is significantly higher than that of the cooling oil in the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c; at this time, the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b and the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c have too large a temperature difference to cause the cooling oil to absorb heat at different efficiencies; however, if the flow rate of the liquid in the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b is not higher than that of the cooling oil in the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c in this state, the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b will have a smaller heat absorption efficiency than the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c due to the high temperature difference; and then the cooling efficiency of the central post-liquid cooling channel 9b and the left pre-liquid cooling channel 9a and the right pre-liquid cooling channel 9c is inconsistent.
[0053] And the present scheme designs a unique uniform heating adjustment method by the dynamic structure of the liquid constraint conveyor belt 17, combined with the fluid mechanics finite element analysis software ANSYS Fluent:
[0054] The first case adjustment method:
[0055] When the heat power of the battery cell array 1 is in the low power gear:
[0056] By controlling the first pulley 11 or the second pulley 12 to rotate counterclockwise, the liquid constraint conveyor belt a section 17a and the liquid constraint conveyor belt b section 17b drive the first follower assembly 7 and the second follower assembly 8 to move away from each other, respectively; until the first follower assembly 7 and the second follower assembly 8 respectively just touch the edge of the a cold oil inlet 14 and the b cold oil inlet 16 in the overhead view;
[0057] The structure of the present scheme in this state is modeled in 3D, and then the 3D model is imported into the finite element analysis software ANSYS Fluent, and the geometric structure is simplified, the fluid domain is divided, and the fluid medium (silicone oil (PDMS)) is defined; use ANSYS Meshing or Fluent built-in mesh tool; the core boundary condition of the present scheme: the liquid outlet of the a cold oil inlet 14 and the b cold oil inlet 16 is defined as 0.38 m / s; the pressure outlet of the hot oil outlet 15 is defined as normal pressure; wall: no slip / slip; after solving and calculating the numerical simulation, the result is analyzed and visualized, and finally the velocity cloud chart and the flow field visualization chart are obtained, as Figure 6 and 7As shown in the velocity nephogram and flow field visualization diagram finally obtained from ANSYS Fluent, the liquid flow rate in the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b is substantially higher than the cooling oil flow rate in the left leading liquid cooling channel 9a and the right leading liquid cooling channel 9c in this state, thereby avoiding the problem that the cooling oil heat absorption efficiency in the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b is significantly reduced due to the significantly higher temperature of the cooling oil than that in the left leading liquid cooling channel 9a and the right leading liquid cooling channel 9c, so as to compensate for the high temperature of the cooling oil in the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b, thereby to a certain extent, eliminating the problem that the cooling efficiencies of the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b, the left leading liquid cooling channel 9a and the right leading liquid cooling channel 9c are inconsistent.
[0058] The adjustment method of the second case is as follows:
[0059] When the heat generation power of the battery cell array 1 is in the high power gear:
[0060] By controlling the first pulley 11 or the second pulley 12 to rotate clockwise, the liquid-restricted conveyor belt a section 17a and the liquid-restricted conveyor belt b section 17b drive the first follower assembly 7 and the second follower assembly 8 to approach each other, respectively, until the first follower assembly 7 and the second follower assembly 8 are just about to contact the edges of the hot oil discharge port 15 at both ends in the top view; the structure in this state is modeled in 3D, and then the 3D model is imported into the finite element analysis software ANSYS Fluent, and the geometric structure is simplified, the fluid domain is divided, and the fluid medium PDMS is defined; ANSYS Meshing or Fluent built-in meshing tool is used; the core boundary condition of the present scheme: the liquid discharge velocity of the a cold oil inlet port 14 and the b cold oil inlet port 16 is defined as 0.38 m / s; the pressure outlet of the hot oil discharge port 15 is defined as normal pressure; wall: no slip / slip; after solving and calculating the numerical simulation, the results are analyzed and visualized, and the velocity nephogram and flow field visualization diagram finally obtained are as shown in Figure 8 and 9 As shown in the velocity nephogram and flow field visualization diagram finally obtained from ANSYS Fluent, the liquid flow rate in the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b is substantially higher than the cooling oil flow rate in the left leading liquid cooling channel 9a and the right leading liquid cooling channel 9c in this state, thereby avoiding the problem that the cooling oil heat absorption efficiency in the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b is significantly reduced due to the significantly higher temperature of the cooling oil than that in the left leading liquid cooling channel 9a and the right leading liquid cooling channel 9c, so as to compensate for the high temperature of the cooling oil in the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b, thereby to a certain extent, eliminating the problem that the cooling efficiencies of the central rear liquid cooling channel 9b, the left leading liquid cooling channel 9a and the right leading liquid cooling channel 9c are inconsistent.
[0061] Based on the above rules and principles, the following strategy in the third case is derived:
[0062] The third case adjustment method:
[0063] When the heat generating power of the battery cell array 1 is in the middle power level:
[0064] By controlling the rotation of the first pulley 11 or the second pulley 12, the liquid-restricted conveyor belt a section 17a and the liquid-restricted conveyor belt b section 17b drive the first follower assembly 7 and the second follower assembly 8 to move at the same speed in opposite directions, respectively, until the first follower assembly 7 is centered between the a cold oil inlet 14 and the hot oil outlet 15, and the second follower assembly 8 is centered between the hot oil outlet 15 and the b cold oil inlet 16 in the overhead view.
[0065] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and refinements without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present application.
