Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of hybrid energy management of hybrid air vehicles, and particularly relates to a hybrid propulsion system of a hybrid air vehicle and an energy management method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The hybrid air vehicle operates in multiple working conditions such as take-off, climbing, hovering and cruising, and therefore has much higher requirements for the power density and dynamic response capability of the propulsion system than ground vehicles, especially in the take-off and climbing stages, the propulsion system needs to have the ability of instantaneous high-power output and rapid power regulation. The traditional hydrogen fuel cell-lithium ion battery dual-source hybrid propulsion system has been widely used in ground vehicles, and the dual-source system is provided with continuous power by the fuel cell and power compensation by the lithium ion battery. However, the fuel cell has a slow response speed and the lithium ion battery has a limited instantaneous output capacity, and when responding to the instantaneous and variable power demand changes of the hybrid air vehicle, the power response of the dual-source system is lagged and the peak power cannot be met. In view of the above situation, a super capacitor is introduced into the traditional dual-source system to form a hydrogen fuel cell-lithium ion battery-super capacitor three-source hybrid propulsion system, the super capacitor has high power density and fast charging and discharging characteristics, can provide power compensation in the instantaneous high-power stage, absorb instantaneous energy, rapidly respond to power demand, and effectively protect the hydrogen fuel cell and the lithium ion battery. Energy management of the three energy sources can meet the power demand of the hybrid air vehicle in multiple working conditions and improve the dynamic response capability of the system.

[0003] Existing researches generally use deep reinforcement learning methods to manage the energy of the hybrid propulsion system with hydrogen fuel cell as the main power source. Among them, the traditional soft actor-critic (SAC) algorithm, as an improved policy gradient algorithm in deep reinforcement learning, is widely used due to its high stability, fast convergence speed and excellent strategy exploration capability in continuous action space. However, it is difficult to solve the energy management problem of the three-source hybrid propulsion system only by using the traditional SAC algorithm: the energy density, power response speed and working characteristics of each energy source of the three-source hybrid propulsion system are significantly different, the number of state variables and action variables to be observed and controlled is doubled, the dimensions of the state space and the action space are doubled when using the traditional SAC algorithm for solution, and there are significant differences between the variables, which all lead to a doubling of the time for action exploration by the existing strategy in the traditional SAC algorithm, and the exploration of invalid actions that violate the safety constraints of the three-source hybrid propulsion system, resulting in interrupted exploration, a doubling of the convergence speed, a doubling of the training time and a poor energy management effect.

[0004] Therefore, how to overcome the above problems, improve the solution speed and reliability of the energy management method while meeting the safety constraints of the three-source hybrid propulsion system, is a technical problem to be solved in the field. SUMMARY
