Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of thermal insulation pad performance testing technology, and specifically to a thermal insulation performance testing system for power battery thermal insulation pads. Background Technology
[0002] Thermal safety of power batteries is a core safety guarantee for new energy vehicles and energy storage systems. Among them, thermal insulation pads, as key components between modules, can delay or block the thermal runaway of cells and are an important barrier to maintain system safety.
[0003] Currently, the testing of thermal insulation performance of heat insulation pads mainly consists of a heating source, fixtures, and a temperature monitoring system. This system simulates thermal runaway by heating one side, monitoring the temperature rise of the cold side to evaluate the pad's insulation performance. Some devices add a pressure mechanism to simulate the pad under pressure, but due to temperature fluctuations caused by the edge effect of the heating source and the lag in pressure loading, the actual data measured by the sensors has dynamic errors (i.e., large deviations between test data and actual data). This not only affects the accuracy of the test data but also leads to poor test repeatability (i.e., poor consistency of results across multiple tests). Furthermore, existing technologies only control temperature or pressure changes and obtain the insulation performance of the pad using temperature test values from the cold and hot sides, without considering the influence of the heat-load-humidity coupling effect on insulation performance. For example, theoretically, the basic thermal conductivity of the heat insulation pad is related to the material itself, but in actual working conditions, increased temperature accelerates molecular thermal motion (thermal field effect), increased pressure compresses porosity (force field effect), and increased humidity leads to moisture penetration (wet field effect). The combined effect of these three factors causes a change in the material's thermal conductivity. Furthermore, relying solely on static values of cold and hot surface temperatures to evaluate the thermal insulation performance of thermal insulation pads not only fails to cover the entire lifecycle performance of the pads (it only reflects the temperature difference at the current instant; conducting full-cycle testing would be time-consuming and costly), but also fails to eliminate the ambiguity of subjective judgment (i.e., evaluation using only cold and hot surface temperatures is usually a qualitative description that lower cold surface temperatures and larger temperature differences are better, which cannot accurately distinguish the performance differences of thermal insulation pads of different thicknesses and materials); in addition, cold and hot surface temperatures are greatly affected by test conditions (such as heating power, pressure, humidity, etc.), and temperature data from different tests cannot be directly compared, resulting in poor test repeatability (i.e., the test performance of thermal insulation pads from different batches, models, and environments cannot be reliably compared). Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a power battery heat insulation pad thermal insulation performance testing system. This system achieves multi-factor coupling evaluation of the heat insulation performance of the heat insulation pad through the coordinated operation of environment, temperature and pressure, thereby completing the dynamic, real-time and full-cycle evaluation of the heat insulation performance of the heat insulation pad, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the performance evaluation.
[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: A power battery heat insulation pad thermal insulation performance testing system includes a control module and a testing module. The testing module is located on the upper side of the control module and includes a test chamber, drive rods, a lifting plate, a pressure component, an environmental chamber, and a heating component. The test chamber is located at the end of the control module and contains the environmental chamber. The environmental chamber is fixedly mounted on the end face of the control module and is coaxially arranged with the test chamber. Two drive rods are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the environmental chamber. A lifting plate is located between the two drive rods and on the upper side of the environmental chamber. A pressure component is located on the bottom surface of the lifting plate, with the end of the pressure component away from the lifting plate located inside the environmental chamber. A heating component is located at the bottom of the environmental chamber, corresponding to the pressure component.
[0006] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, the pressure component includes a pressure rod and a pressure block. The pressure rod is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the lifting plate and its end away from the lifting plate penetrates through the top surface of the environmental chamber. The pressure block is installed at the bottom end of the pressure rod. The heating component includes a heating source and a heat spreader. The heating source is fixedly installed on the end face of the control module and a heat spreader is installed on its end face.

The sensor system includes a hot surface temperature sensor, a cold surface temperature sensor, a piezoelectric pressure sensor, a capacitive humidity sensor, and a laser displacement sensor. The hot surface temperature sensors are evenly distributed on the end face of the heat spreader plate, the cold surface temperature sensors are evenly distributed on the end face of the heat insulation pad to be tested, and the piezoelectric pressure sensors are evenly distributed on the end face of the heat insulation pad to be tested, with the piezoelectric pressure sensors and cold surface temperature sensors being positioned opposite each other. The capacitive humidity sensor is installed inside the environmental chamber cavity to detect the internal environmental humidity. The laser displacement sensor is installed on the top surface of the inner cavity of the test chamber, with its transmitting end vertically aligned with the end face of the lifting plate (a laser signal receiving end can be installed on the end face of the lifting plate).
[0008] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, the lifting plate can be driven to move up and down by any one of the following drive sources: servo motor, pneumatic device, or hydraulic device.
[0009] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, the specific testing method for the thermal insulation performance of the test system includes: Step S1, Pre-test preparation: Deploy the sensor system and the heat insulation pad under test in the test chamber as required, wherein the heat insulation pad under test is placed on the end face of the heat spreader. Step S2, Data Acquisition: Turn on the heating and pressure components, conduct tests, and simultaneously collect data on cold / hot surface temperature, contact pressure, ambient humidity, and real-time thickness of the insulation pad. Step S3, Dynamic Error Compensation: Kalman filtering is used to fuse multiple sets of data from the sensor system to obtain the corrected true state value of the sensor. Step S4, Coupling effect quantification: Substitute the corrected sensor parameters into the coupling coefficient model to obtain the effective thermal conductivity and effective thermal insulation resistance. Step S5, Real-time performance evaluation: Evaluate the thermal insulation performance of the thermal insulation pad based on the effective thermal conductivity and effective thermal insulation resistance. Step S6, Long-term performance prediction: Based on the pre-trained LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) time series model, predict the effective thermal insulation resistance of the insulation pad at future times and evaluate the performance degradation trend.
[0010] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, in step S2, an FPGA clock synchronization module (synchronizer) is used to control the synchronization of various sensor data to ensure that the sampling time difference of all sensors is no greater than 1ms; at the same time, the sampling frequency is 10Hz, that is, it is sampled once every 0.1s.
[0011] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, in step S3, the dynamic error compensation specifically includes: First, define the state vector. X k for: ,in, T hot-k express k The hot surface temperature is measured at all times. T cold-k express k The temperature of the cold surface is measured at all times.

By fusing multi-dimensional sensor data in real time through Kalman filtering, dynamic errors such as heating hysteresis, pressure fluctuations, and humidity penetration delays are compensated, thereby effectively reducing measurement errors of core parameters such as temperature and pressure and improving test accuracy.
[0012] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, in step S4, the coupling effect quantification specifically involves: Establish a coupling coefficient model of thermal-mechanical-humidity, including the effective thermal conductivity. With effective thermal insulation resistance : ; ; In the formula: k T , k P , k RH , k TP , k TRH , k PRH These represent the temperature field coupling coefficient, pressure field coupling coefficient, humidity field coupling coefficient, temperature-pressure coupling coefficient, temperature-humidity coupling coefficient, and pressure-humidity coupling coefficient, respectively.

T cold-m This indicates the temperature reached by the cold side when the insulation fails.
[0014] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, the LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) time-series model training process in step S6 is specifically as follows: With hot surface temperature T hot Real-time pressure P Real-time relative humidity RH The time series sequence is used as input, and the input feature matrix is used as input. G =[ G 1, G 2,…, G N ] T Each sample G i for: ; in, L Indicates the length of the time window; With thermal resistance R eff The time series sequence is used as the output, and the output label is: ; in, M Indicates the prediction step size; The input features and output labels are normalized and then fed into the LSTM model structure for training. The LSTM model controls the flow of information through forget gates, input gates, and output gates to adapt to long-term time dependencies. The model training loss function is: ; In the formula: N represents the number of samples in the training set, and M represents the prediction step size for each sample; Indicates the first i In the sample, the first j The effective thermal insulation resistance value corresponding to each prediction step size; Indicates the first i In the sample, the first j The effective thermal resistance value predicted by the LSTM model for each prediction step size; Indicates the penalty coefficient; E () indicates an indicator function, which takes the value 1 when the condition is met and 0 when the condition is not met; Indicates the first i In the sample, the first j The actual hot surface temperature corresponding to each predicted step size; T ysm This indicates the preset extreme hot surface temperature of the battery runaway.
[0015] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, in step S6, evaluating the performance degradation trend specifically involves: inputting the latest sampling point data into the pre-trained LSTM time series model, and outputting the effective thermal insulation resistance value at future times through the LSTM time series model; obtaining the predicted thermal insulation resistance value by inversely normalizing the effective thermal insulation resistance value output by the LSTM time series model. R eff-yc Ultimately, the performance degradation rate is obtained. : ; In the formula: R eff-0 This indicates the initial measured effective thermal insulation resistance value of the insulation pad.
[0016] The following are the technical effects of the present invention: This invention uses Kalman filtering to fuse multi-dimensional sensor data (including temperature, humidity, pressure, etc.) in real time during the evaluation of the thermal insulation performance of the heat insulation pad, compensating for dynamic errors such as heating lag, pressure fluctuations, and humidity penetration, thereby improving the accuracy of data measurement. At the same time, through a coupling coefficient model, temperature, pressure, and relative humidity are regarded as three coupled fields. The coupling coefficient is used to correct the effective thermal conductivity and effective thermal insulation resistance in real time, thereby avoiding the change in thermal conductivity caused by the interaction of temperature, humidity, and pressure. This makes it more consistent with the actual use environment of battery heat insulation pads affected by multi-dimensional and complex environmental factors, avoiding the problems of large errors and low accuracy caused by single-factor testing. Furthermore, this invention comprehensively evaluates the thermal insulation performance of thermal insulation pads by considering the temperature rise rate, maximum thermal insulation temperature difference, and thermal insulation failure time. The temperature rise rate quantifies the thermal insulation pad's ability to block heat accumulation and facilitates the evaluation of thermal insulation efficiency under dynamic conditions. The maximum thermal insulation temperature difference effectively eliminates interference from test conditions and facilitates the evaluation of thermal insulation limit capabilities under steady-state conditions. The thermal insulation failure time quantifies the safety and environmental protection window, enables wind direction prediction, and facilitates the evaluation of safety risks under extreme conditions. This avoids the problem that static values at a single moment can only reflect instantaneous performance, eliminates the ambiguity of subjective judgment, and improves the accuracy, comprehensiveness, and stability of performance evaluation.
[0017] Ultimately, by using the time-series prediction model of LSTM, the entire life cycle of thermal insulation performance can be predicted, thereby capturing the time-series decay law of thermal insulation performance under coupled environment (such as the irreversible increase in thermal conductivity caused by long-term humidity penetration), avoiding potential safety hazards in advance, ensuring the foresight of performance evaluation, and avoiding problems such as increased cost, long time consumption, and poor stability and reliability caused by full-cycle testing.

The servo control system 21 controls the two screws to rotate simultaneously and in the same direction through the servo motor. The industrial computer 22 is electrically connected to the servo control system 21, the sensor system, and the heating source 161.
