[0029] In step S203, the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the drive motor and the generator are controlled according to the flight mode and the real-time residual capacity.
[0030] Through the above steps, a control instruction of an aircraft is detected, a flight mode of the aircraft is determined according to the control instruction, and a real-time residual capacity of an energy storage unit is detected, wherein the aircraft comprises a drive motor, a hydrogen internal combustion engine, a generator, and the energy storage unit, the hydrogen internal combustion engine provides power for the generator in a starting stage, the generator charges the energy storage unit, and the generator and the energy storage unit provide electric energy for the drive motor; the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the drive motor and the generator are controlled according to the flight mode and the real-time residual capacity, thereby solving the technical problem of low energy utilization rate of the aircraft in the prior art, and meeting the needs of the aircraft in lightweight, long endurance and high safety.
[0031] The aircraft of the embodiment comprises multiple flight modes corresponding to different flight scenes or flight states, such as a vertical take-off mode, a deceleration landing mode, a constant-speed straight flight mode, an acceleration straight flight mode and a escape mode, different modes are switched according to input signals provided by an aircraft control monitoring system, triggered based on user instructions or system instructions, and an optimal energy management is made by comprehensively considering the power demand of the aircraft and the current conditions of the characteristics of each subsystem of the actual power system, which is illustrated herein.
[0032] In one implementation scenario of the embodiment, if the flight mode is a vertical take-off mode, controlling the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the driving motor and the power generation motor according to the flight mode and the real-time residual capacity includes: in a take-off preparation stage, controlling the hydrogen internal combustion engine to start and run to a hybrid working condition, and controlling the power generation motor to charge the energy storage unit according to the real-time residual capacity, wherein the energy storage unit includes a battery and a capacitor, and the hydrogen internal combustion engine includes a start working condition, an economic working condition, a hybrid working condition and a high-power working condition in which the rotation speed is sequentially increased; in a take-off start stage after the take-off preparation stage, controlling the power generation motor and the battery to simultaneously provide electric energy for the driving motor; in a take-off flight stage after the take-off start stage, monitoring the real-time residual capacity of the battery; judging whether the real-time residual capacity is less than or equal to a first preset capacity; if the real-time residual capacity is less than or equal to the first preset capacity, switching the hydrogen internal combustion engine from the hybrid working condition to the high-power working condition, and controlling the power generation motor to independently provide electric energy for the driving motor; and if the real-time residual capacity is greater than the first preset capacity, maintaining the current state until the aircraft reaches a specified height.
[0033] The vertical take-off mode includes a take-off preparation stage, a take-off start stage and a take-off flight stage.
[0034] The hydrogen internal combustion engine of the embodiment can be operated in multiple working conditions. The rotation speed and output power of the hydrogen internal combustion engine are different in different working conditions. The aircraft has different power demands for the hydrogen internal combustion engine in different modes. In combination with the performance characteristics and green environmental protection requirements of the hydrogen internal combustion engine, a hydrogen injection strategy is designed for different working conditions corresponding to different output powers of the internal combustion engine, so as to maximize the performance of the hydrogen internal combustion engine. For different injection strategy times (fuel injection times per unit time) corresponding to different rotation speeds, the injection amount and injection interval of each injection can be determined according to the corresponding calibration of the working condition of the internal combustion engine. The injection times are increased in the low-speed stage, so as to improve the low-temperature combustion of the mixed gas in the low-speed stage under the condition of meeting the power output, thereby realizing near-zero emission. Generally, the lower the rotation speed, the longer the corresponding combustion time, and more injection times can be provided. In combination with the high-efficiency rotation speed interval characteristics of the internal combustion engine, three different injection strategies are provided. Here, multiple working conditions of the hydrogen internal combustion engine are described. Working condition one (start working condition): the start stage belongs to a high-emission interval. In this working condition, the battery provides electric energy to reverse the rotation speed of the internal combustion engine to N0 by the power generation motor, and the rotation speed is 0-1500 rpm. Generally, after the rotation speed reaches 1500 rpm, the next working condition with high efficiency is entered. Working condition two (economic working condition): low-speed stage N0-N1, rotation speed 1500-2200 rpm, 3 injection strategies are adopted, which can meet the power required for the driving motor to be independently powered; Case three (mixed case): medium speed stage N1-N2, speed 2200-3000 rpm, 2 injection strategies are adopted, which can meet the power of charging the energy storage unit and providing power for the driving motor at the same time; Case four (high power case): high speed stage N2-N3, speed 3000-4000 rpm, 1 injection strategy is adopted, which can meet the power of charging the energy storage unit and providing power for the driving motor alone in mixed scenarios; Case five: limit case interval, speed greater than N3, speed greater than 4000 rpm, which belongs to the interval of extremely high load and high nitrogen oxide emission of the engine, which is used to output the highest limit power, and it is specified to avoid the internal combustion engine running in this interval as much as possible. The output power of the internal combustion engine in case one, case two, case three, case four and case five increases in turn.
[0035] The energy storage unit of the embodiment increases the capacitor energy unit on the basis of the battery. Compared with the battery, the capacitor can output greater power under small power conditions, and can complement the battery in specific demand environment to provide more stable and safe guarantee for the power demand of the aircraft. In order to further clarify the capacitor energy management strategy, the capacitor power management can be divided into four stages: Stage one: 0-C1, which belongs to the ultra-low power stage, the capacitor is strictly prohibited to output power, and needs to be charged through the power system energy management strategy; Stage two: C1-C2, which belongs to the low power stage, which can output power, but needs to be charged through the power system energy management strategy after instantaneous output; Stage three: C2-100%, which belongs to the high power stage, which can output high instantaneous power, and can temporarily not need to supplement energy after output; Specifically, C1 and C2 are different capacitor power percentages, which are confirmed according to actual capacitor calibration.
[0036] In order to form a complementary energy management strategy with the capacitor and the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the energy management of the battery is further described. According to the current industry mainstream battery characteristics and needs, the energy is divided into four stages, as follows: Stage one: 0-S1 stage, which belongs to the ultra-low energy stage of the battery, the battery is strictly prohibited to output power, and needs to be charged, which allows the hydrogen internal combustion engine to provide power for the battery to charge; Stage two: S1-S2 stage, which belongs to the low energy stage of the battery, the battery can output power, but not as the main power output source of the system, which allows the hydrogen internal combustion engine to provide power for the battery; Stage three: S2-S3 stage, which belongs to the high energy stage of the battery, the battery can output power for a long time, and can be used as the main power output source of the system, and the hydrogen internal combustion engine is allowed to provide power for the battery in this stage; Stage four: S3-100% stage, which belongs to the full energy stage of the battery, the battery can output power for a long time, and can be used as the main power output source of the system, and the hydrogen internal combustion engine is not allowed to provide power for the battery in this stage because the battery charges slowly; Optionally, S1 is between 15% and 25%, S2 is between 30% and 40%, and S3 is between 80% and 90%, and S1, S2 and S3 are different energy percentages, and the size is determined according to the actual battery size.
[0037] The vertical take-off mode is for the aircraft to start and leave the ground, which needs strong power to support the aircraft to leave the ground, and the hydrogen internal combustion engine needs to cooperate with the battery to provide sufficient power demand for the motor in this mode. If the battery and the capacitor are insufficient before take-off, charging needs to be completed before take-off.
[0038] In one example, the control of the generator to charge the energy storage unit according to the real-time residual capacity includes: judging whether the first residual capacity of the battery is less than or equal to a first preset capacity, wherein the real-time residual capacity includes the first residual capacity of the battery and the second residual capacity of the capacitor; if the first residual capacity is less than or equal to the first preset capacity, the generator is controlled to charge the battery to a second preset capacity, wherein the second preset capacity is greater than the first preset capacity; if the first residual capacity is greater than the first preset capacity, it is judged whether the second residual capacity of the capacitor is less than or equal to a third preset capacity; if the second residual capacity of the capacitor is less than or equal to the third preset capacity, the generator is controlled to charge the capacitor to a full load capacity.
[0039] Figure 4 It is a control flowchart of the vertical take-off mode in the embodiment of the application, which includes: Firstly, check the power system, start the hydrogen internal combustion engine to working condition three; Judge the battery capacity, if the battery capacity is less than or equal to S2 (the first preset capacity), select the internal combustion engine or the external charging pile to charge the battery to a capacity greater than S3 (the second preset capacity) based on the location condition of the aircraft; otherwise, if the remaining capacity of the battery is greater than S2, continue to judge the capacity of the capacitor, if the capacity is less than or equal to C2, the capacitor needs to be charged to 100% through the internal combustion engine; Output power to the driving motor through the internal combustion engine and the battery, and start the take-off of the aircraft; During take-off, the battery power continues to be monitored, if the battery capacity ≤ S2 during the ascending process, the internal combustion engine working condition is switched to working condition four, the battery energy supply to the driving motor is cut off, and the internal combustion engine is switched to participate in the aircraft take-off power output; then the original state is maintained until the aircraft reaches the specified height.
[0040] In one implementation scenario of the embodiment, if the flight mode is the deceleration landing mode, controlling the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the driving motor and the power generator according to the flight mode and the real-time residual capacity includes: judging whether the real-time residual capacity of the battery in the energy storage unit is greater than or equal to a fourth preset capacity; if the real-time residual capacity is greater than or equal to the fourth preset capacity, controlling the battery to provide the driving motor with electric energy alone; if the real-time residual capacity is less than the fourth preset capacity, judging whether the hydrogen internal combustion engine has been started; if the hydrogen internal combustion engine has been started, controlling the hydrogen internal combustion engine to enter the economic working condition, and controlling the power generator to provide the driving motor with electric energy alone; if the hydrogen internal combustion engine has not been started, controlling the hydrogen internal combustion engine to enter the starting working condition and run to the economic working condition, and controlling the power generator and the battery to provide the driving motor with electric energy simultaneously until the aircraft landing is completed.
[0041] The deceleration landing mode is for the stage of landing the aircraft from the air to the ground, and the stage is characterized by not requiring high power demand, so the battery is preferentially selected to provide the driving motor with energy.
[0042] Figure 5 is the control flowchart of the deceleration landing mode in the embodiment, including: Firstly, the battery power is judged, if the battery capacity ≥ S2 (the fourth preset capacity), the driving motor is continuously provided with energy by the battery alone to maintain the flight of the aircraft; Otherwise, it is continuously judged whether the internal combustion engine has been started, if yes, the internal combustion engine working condition is switched to working condition two to provide the energy demand for the aircraft descending stage, and then the battery energy output is cut off; Otherwise, the internal combustion engine is started to working condition one, the battery continues to maintain the energy output to ensure the safe descending of the aircraft, and then the internal combustion engine is continuously adjusted to working condition two to provide the energy demand for the aircraft descending stage, and then the battery energy output is cut off.
[0043] In one implementation scenario of the embodiment, if the flight mode is the constant speed and level flight mode, controlling the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the driving motor and the power generation motor according to the flight mode and the real-time residual capacity comprises: monitoring the real-time residual capacity of the battery in the energy storage unit; judging whether the real-time residual capacity is greater than or equal to a fifth preset capacity; if the real-time residual capacity is greater than or equal to the fifth preset capacity, controlling the battery to provide power for the driving motor alone; if the real-time residual capacity is less than the fifth preset capacity, judging whether the hydrogen internal combustion engine has been started; and controlling the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine and the power generation motor according to the starting state of the hydrogen internal combustion engine.
[0044] The constant speed and level flight mode of the implementation scenario is for the high-altitude constant speed flight phase of the aircraft, which is characterized by no high power requirement, so that the battery is preferentially selected to provide power for the driving motor in this phase, and if the battery power is insufficient, the internal combustion engine needs to be started to charge and continue to fly.
[0045] In one example, controlling the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine and the power generation motor according to the starting state of the hydrogen internal combustion engine comprises: if the hydrogen internal combustion engine has been started, controlling the hydrogen internal combustion engine to enter a hybrid working condition, controlling the power generation motor to charge the battery, and simultaneously controlling the power generation motor to provide power for the driving motor alone until the real-time residual capacity of the battery increases to a sixth preset capacity, then shutting down the hydrogen internal combustion engine and controlling the battery to provide power for the driving motor alone; if the hydrogen internal combustion engine has not been started, controlling the hydrogen internal combustion engine to start and enter a starting working condition, and controlling the power generation motor and the battery to provide power for the driving motor simultaneously; controlling the hydrogen internal combustion engine to run from the starting working condition to the hybrid working condition, controlling the power generation motor to charge the battery, and simultaneously controlling the power generation motor to provide power for the driving motor alone until the real-time residual capacity of the battery increases to the sixth preset capacity, then shutting down the hydrogen internal combustion engine and controlling the battery to provide power for the driving motor alone.
[0046] Figure 6 is a control flowchart of the constant speed and level flight mode in the embodiment, which comprises: Firstly, the battery power is judged, if the residual capacity of the battery is greater than or equal to S2 (fifth preset capacity), then the driving motor is continuously provided with power by the battery to maintain the flight of the aircraft; Otherwise, it is continuously judged whether the internal combustion engine has been started, if it has been started, the working condition of the internal combustion engine is switched to working condition three, and power is provided for the driving motor and the battery, and when the capacity of the battery is greater than or equal to S3 (sixth preset capacity), the internal combustion engine is shut down, and the driving motor is provided with power by the battery; If the internal combustion engine is not started, the internal combustion engine is started to the working condition one, the battery continues to maintain the energy output, then the internal combustion engine is switched to the working condition three after the internal combustion engine is started stably, and the energy is provided to the driving motor and the battery, and when the battery capacity is greater than or equal to S3, the internal combustion engine is closed, and the driving motor is provided with the energy by the battery.
[0047] In one implementation scenario of the embodiment, if the flight mode is the accelerating and steady flying mode, controlling the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the driving motor and the generating motor according to the flight mode and the real-time residual capacity includes: controlling the hydrogen internal combustion engine to enter a starting working condition, judging whether the real-time residual capacity of the battery in the energy storage unit is less than or equal to a seventh preset capacity; if the real-time residual capacity is less than or equal to the seventh preset capacity, the aircraft is prohibited from accelerating flying, the hydrogen internal combustion engine is controlled to run from the starting working condition to a high-power working condition, the generating motor is controlled to charge the battery, and the driving motor is provided with the electric energy by the generating motor alone; if the real-time residual capacity is greater than the seventh preset capacity, the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine and the generating motor are controlled according to the acceleration type of the accelerating and steady flying mode.
[0048] The accelerating and steady flying mode in the implementation scenario is for the steady moving stage of the aircraft in high altitude, and the power demand in the stage is higher than that in the starting stage, so the battery is preferentially selected in the stage, and the hydrogen internal combustion engine assists in providing the energy for the driving motor.
[0049] In one example, controlling the working states of the hydrogen internal combustion engine and the generating motor according to the acceleration type of the accelerating and steady flying mode includes: determining the acceleration type of the accelerating and steady flying mode, wherein the acceleration type includes a first acceleration mode and a second acceleration mode, and the average acceleration of the first acceleration mode is greater than that of the second acceleration mode; if the acceleration type is the first acceleration mode, the hydrogen internal combustion engine is controlled to run from the starting working condition to the high-power working condition, and the driving motor is provided with the electric energy by the battery and the generating motor simultaneously; if the acceleration type is the second acceleration mode, the hydrogen internal combustion engine is controlled to run from the starting working condition to a hybrid working condition, and the driving motor is provided with the electric energy by the battery and the generating motor simultaneously.
[0050] Optionally, the first acceleration mode and the second acceleration mode correspond to a slow acceleration mode and a rapid acceleration mode respectively.
[0051] Figure 7 is a control flow chart of the accelerating and steady flying mode in the embodiment, including: First, the internal combustion engine is started to the working condition one, and the battery capacity is determined, if the battery capacity is less than or equal to S2 (the seventh preset capacity), the aircraft is prohibited from accelerating flying, and the working condition of the internal combustion engine is switched to the working condition four, and the energy is provided to the driving motor and the battery; If not, the engine is started to the third working condition, and the battery maintains energy output. If not, the engine is started to the third working condition, and the battery maintains energy output.
[0052] In one implementation scenario of the embodiment, if the flight mode is the escape mode, controlling the working states of the hydrogen engine, the driving motor and the generator according to the flight mode and the real-time residual capacity includes: controlling the hydrogen engine to enter a mixed working condition, judging whether the real-time residual capacity of the battery in the energy storage unit is less than or equal to an eighth preset capacity, if the real-time residual capacity is less than or equal to the eighth preset capacity, controlling the hydrogen engine to run from the mixed working condition to a high-power working condition, and controlling the capacitor and the generator to simultaneously provide electric energy for the driving motor, wherein the energy storage unit includes the battery and the capacitor, judging whether the aircraft has escaped, if the aircraft has escaped, controlling the generator to charge the capacitor and the battery, and simultaneously controlling the generator to provide electric energy for the driving motor alone, and if the aircraft has not escaped, controlling the capacitor, the battery and the generator to simultaneously provide electric energy for the driving motor.
[0053] The escape mode of the implementation scenario is aimed at providing higher power to help the aircraft escape from a special scenario, and the mode is characterized by a large instantaneous power requirement for escaping, but a short duration, so that the capacitor needs to provide instantaneous power in addition to the hydrogen engine and the battery to help the aircraft escape quickly.
[0054] In another aspect of the implementation scenario, after judging whether the real-time residual capacity is less than or equal to the eighth preset capacity, it further includes: if the real-time residual capacity is greater than the eighth preset capacity, controlling the capacitor, the battery and the generator to simultaneously provide electric energy for the driving motor, judging whether the aircraft has escaped, if the aircraft has escaped, controlling the generator to charge the capacitor and the battery, and simultaneously controlling the generator to provide electric energy for the driving motor alone, and if the aircraft has not escaped, switching the hydrogen engine from the mixed working condition to the high-power working condition, and controlling the capacitor, the battery and the generator to simultaneously provide electric energy for the driving motor.
[0055] Figure 8 is a control flowchart of the escape mode in the embodiment, which includes: First, the engine is started to the third working condition, and the battery capacity is judged, if the battery capacity is less than or equal to S2 (the eighth preset capacity), the battery energy output is cut off, the engine working condition is adjusted to the fourth working condition simultaneously, and the capacitor is started to participate in the power output required for escaping. Next step, continue to determine whether to get out of trouble, if not, then switch the engine to working condition four, and provide energy to the drive motor with the battery and the capacitor at the same time. On the contrary, if it has got out of trouble, cut off the capacitor's external output energy, and the internal combustion engine continues to maintain working condition four, providing energy to the drive motor while charging the capacitor to 100% of the power supply, then continue to charge the battery to S3, and then switch the engine working condition to working condition two, and convert to provide energy to the drive motor with the battery. On the other hand, if it enters the escape mode and starts the engine to determine that the battery capacity is greater than S2, then switch the engine to working condition three, and provide energy to the drive motor with the battery and the capacitor at the same time. Next step, continue to determine whether to get out of trouble, if not, then switch the engine to working condition four, and provide energy to the drive motor with the battery and the capacitor at the same time. On the contrary, if it has got out of trouble, cut off the capacitor's external output energy, and the internal combustion engine continues to maintain working condition four, providing energy to the drive motor while charging the capacitor to 100% of the power supply, then continue to charge the battery to S3, and then switch the engine working condition to working condition two, and convert to provide energy to the drive motor with the battery.
[0056] The scheme of the embodiment proposes to use a hydrogen fuel internal combustion engine as a zero-carbon green emission power source, combined with new energy batteries, capacitors, and electric drive technology to meet the lightweight, long endurance, and high safety of low-altitude flight power systems. The embodiment proposes five different modes for the aircraft special hydrogen internal combustion engine and range-extended power system. Different modes are switched according to input signals, and the energy management strategy of each mode comprehensively considers the current conditions of the aircraft power demand and the characteristics of each subsystem of the actual power system to achieve optimal energy management.
[0057] The embodiment provides a hybrid power system and energy management strategy based on a hydrogen fuel internal combustion engine combined with batteries, capacitors, and electric motors for vertical take-off and landing aircraft power systems, and proposes a corresponding logic control strategy. With the characteristics of the power battery pack, the hydrogen internal combustion engine can be avoided to work in the high fuel consumption and high emission area, and only work in the high efficiency area. At the same time, with the characteristics of high instantaneous power of the capacitor, the auxiliary battery and the hydrogen internal combustion engine can provide the demand for instantaneous strong power for the special scene of the aircraft. Overall, by combining the characteristics of the battery, the capacitor, and the hydrogen internal combustion engine, the respective disadvantages are complementary to meet the power demand of the aircraft in multiple scenarios.
