[0002] Lithium iron phosphate batteries are widely used in new energy and energy storage fields due to their advantages such as high safety and long cycle life. However, under conditions such as overcharging, high temperature, and internal short circuit, thermal runaway may still occur. The uncontrolled chemical reaction inside the battery causes a sharp increase in temperature and pressure, which can lead to electrolyte leakage, fire or even explosion, seriously threatening the safety of equipment operation.

[0003] Existing thermal runaway early warning technologies for lithium iron phosphate batteries have significant limitations: most rely on single temperature monitoring, resulting in strong warning lag, often triggering alarms only in the later stages of thermal runaway; while some technologies add voltage monitoring, they are easily affected by charging fluctuations, leading to a high false alarm rate.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which constitute a part of the present invention and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

"And / or" describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone.

[0021] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the embodiments of this invention are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a technical feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature.

[0022] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a mutually exclusive, independent, or alternative embodiment. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0023] A specific embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, a thermal runaway early warning method is disclosed, including: S101, acquire the voltage signal of the battery cell, the temperature signal inside the battery cell, and the synchronization signal component of the air pressure signal.

[0024] In this embodiment of the invention, the provided thermal runaway early warning method can realize thermal runaway early warning of the battery and can be applied to existing battery management systems. The charging device is connected to the lithium battery pack via cables or copper busbars. The battery management system starts up and completes communication self-test with the pressure sensor, temperature sensor, and voltage sensor to confirm that the data acquisition function of each sensor is normal and there is no communication interruption or data abnormality. During the charging process, the battery management system reads the data output by the pressure sensor inside the cell, the temperature sensor attached to the surface of the cell, and the voltage sensor connected in series in the battery circuit and uploads it to the battery management system via Ethernet or CAN communication.

[0025] S102, perform multi-scale time-series slicing on the synchronization signal components to obtain multi-scale time-series feature vectors, and construct the thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell based on the multi-scale time-series feature vectors.

[0026] In this embodiment of the invention, the obtained voltage, temperature, and air pressure of the battery cell are data within a certain time period. It is necessary to determine the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell based on the voltage, temperature, and air pressure within this time period. To ensure the accuracy of the thermal runaway trend determination, multi-scale time-series slicing of the voltage, temperature, and air pressure can be performed. Based on the time length of different scales, the voltage, temperature, and air pressure are sliced ​​according to their temporal relationships, resulting in multiple slice data segments. Corresponding multi-scale time-series feature vectors are extracted from each slice data segment. Then, the multi-scale time-series feature vectors of voltage, temperature, and air pressure are fused to obtain the thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell. This feature vector characterizes the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell. The construction of multi-scale time-series slicing and the thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell will be described in detail later in this invention.

[0027] S103, the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell is determined based on the similarity between the thermal runaway trend feature vector and the preset thermal runaway standard trend vector, and multi-level thermal runaway early warning is performed on the battery cell based on the thermal runaway trend.

[0028] In this embodiment of the invention, after determining the thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell, the thermal runaway trend feature vector is compared with a preset thermal runaway standard trend feature vector, the similarity between the two is calculated, and the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell is determined based on the similarity. Then, multi-level thermal runaway early warning is performed on the battery cell based on the thermal runaway trend. Specifically, different degrees of thermal runaway correspond to different levels of thermal runaway early warning.

[0029] The thermal runaway early warning method provided in this invention acquires synchronous signal components of the battery cell's voltage signal, internal temperature signal, and air pressure signal. It utilizes multiple data sources for thermal runaway early warning, avoiding untimely warnings due to a single data source and reducing false alarm rates. By performing multi-scale time-series slicing on the synchronous signal components, multi-scale time-series feature vectors are obtained. Based on these feature vectors, a thermal runaway trend feature vector for the battery cell is constructed. Signals at different time scales are analyzed, and the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell is determined based on each signal. This allows for early prediction of the thermal runaway trend, enabling early warning and further improving the real-time performance of the alarm. Furthermore, the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell is determined based on the similarity between the thermal runaway trend feature vector and a preset thermal runaway standard trend vector. Multi-level thermal runaway early warning is then performed based on this trend. The thermal runaway trend is determined by comparing the feature vector with the preset standard trend vector, and multi-level alarms are implemented. This allows for graded alarms based on the severity of the thermal runaway, enhancing applicability.

[0030] In some possible embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the synchronization signal components for acquiring the voltage signal of the battery cell, the temperature signal inside the battery cell, and the air pressure signal include: S201 synchronously acquires the voltage signal, internal temperature signal, and air pressure signal of the battery cell in real time. S202 performs adaptive filtering and signal decomposition processing on the voltage signal, temperature signal, and air pressure signal to obtain the synchronization signal components of the voltage signal, temperature signal, and air pressure signal.

[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, the voltage, temperature, and air pressure of the battery cell can be acquired synchronously by a pressure sensor installed inside the battery cell, a temperature sensor attached to the surface of the battery cell, and a voltage sensor connected in series in the battery cell circuit. To ensure strict time synchronization, the signals from each sensor are digitized by a multi-channel synchronous sampling analog-to-digital converter driven by the same clock after being conditioned by a conditioning circuit, and a uniform timestamp is added to each sampling point.

[0032] Furthermore, noise disturbances occur during the acquisition of voltage, temperature, and pressure signals from the battery cell, causing signal fluctuations and noise contamination. It is necessary to extract essential characteristic components reflecting the internal electrochemical processes, thermal behavior, and mechanical changes of the battery cell from the noise-contaminated original synchronization signals. Through adaptive filtering and signal decomposition, the synchronization signal components of the voltage, temperature, and pressure signals can be obtained. Specifically, due to the complex operating environment of the battery cell, noise (such as switching noise from charging and discharging equipment, vehicle vibration noise, and electromagnetic interference) has non-stationary and time-varying characteristics, making it difficult for traditional fixed-parameter filters to achieve ideal results. This invention employs an adaptive filter based on the Least Mean Square (LMS) or Recursive Least Squares (RLS) algorithm to perform preliminary noise reduction on the signal of each channel. Its core idea is to dynamically adjust the filter weight coefficients using the signal's own characteristics or a reference noise source to suppress noise in the optimal way. Further, taking LMS adaptive filtering as an example, its weight coefficient update formula is:

[0033] in, Let be the filter weight coefficient vector at time n. Let be the filter weight coefficient vector at time n+1. Let n be the input signal vector at time n. This is the step size factor, which controls the convergence speed and stability. Let n be the error signal at time n. By performing preliminary filtering on the original voltage, temperature, and air pressure signals, we can obtain the denoised voltage, temperature, and air pressure.

[0034] Furthermore, to separate characteristic components related to the main physicochemical processes inside the battery cell (such as lithium-ion insertion / extraction, side reactions, heat generation, and gas generation) from the initially denoised signal, this invention employs signal decomposition technology to decompose the initially denoised signal, obtaining synchronous signal components of voltage, temperature, and gas pressure signals. For example, for the voltage signal... For example, the goal of signal decomposition is to decompose it into K-dimensional mode functions. This minimizes the sum of the estimated bandwidths of all modes. Specifically, the decomposition formula is as follows:

[0035]

[0036] in, voltage signal The k-th modal component, Let be the center frequency of the k-th modal component. For the Dirac function, This indicates taking the partial derivative with respect to the event, where j is the imaginary unit.

[0037] This invention ensures signal synchronization by synchronously acquiring cell voltage, temperature, and air pressure signals. At the same time, through adaptive filtering and signal decomposition, noise in the original signals can be removed, and the synchronization signal components of each signal can be obtained, which facilitates subsequent thermal runaway analysis.

[0038] In some possible embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, multi-scale time-series slices are performed on voltage, temperature, and air pressure to obtain multi-scale time-series feature vectors, including: S301, perform multi-scale time-series slicing on the synchronization signal components of voltage signal, temperature signal and air pressure signal respectively to obtain multi-scale synchronization slice signals of voltage signal, temperature signal and air pressure signal; S302, based on the changing trends of each signal in the multi-scale synchronous slice signal at different time scales, determine the changing trends of each signal at different time scales, and construct the multi-scale temporal feature vector of each signal based on the changing trends.

[0039] In this embodiment of the invention, the multi-scale time-series slicing is used to transform the synchronization signal components obtained in the aforementioned embodiments from continuous time-domain waveforms into a series of discrete segments with clear time scales and contextual information. The multi-scale strategy aims to simultaneously capture the rapid transient response and slow evolution trends of processes within the battery cell, such as ion migration, instantaneous heat generation, accumulation of side reactions, and aging degradation. Specifically, for each synchronization signal component, multiple different time scales are constructed, each corresponding to a time observation perspective from short to long. For each synchronization signal component, at each preset time scale, a sliding window slice is performed along the time axis with a fixed or adaptive step size to obtain a multi-scale synchronization slice signal.

[0040] Furthermore, for each multi-scale synchronous slice signal, its trend features need to be extracted to determine the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell. For a single slice signal, its changing trend can be quantified by calculating the time-series characteristic parameters of the slice, such as linear slope trend, curvature or nonlinearity measure, extreme values ​​and fluctuations, statistical characteristics, etc. Furthermore, the co-current trends between various signals can also be calculated, such as trend synchronization, calculating the correlation coefficient or phase difference between the slopes of voltage and temperature slices to reflect the tightness of electrothermal coupling; and the trend amplitude ratio, the ratio of the slope of gas pressure change to the slope of temperature change, which can indirectly reflect the intensity relationship between gas generation and heat generation reactions. Based on the changing trends of each signal and the co-current trends, a multi-scale time-series feature vector of corresponding dimensions is constructed.

[0041] This invention provides a method for analyzing the thermal runaway trend of battery cells by performing multi-scale time-series slicing on signals, processing different signals separately, and analyzing the changing trends of each signal.

[0042] In some possible embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, a feature vector for the thermal runaway trend of a battery cell is constructed based on multi-scale time-series feature vectors, including: S401 fuses the multi-scale time-series feature vectors of each signal according to the time scale to generate a multi-scale thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell. S402 fuses the multi-scale thermal runaway trend feature vectors according to the temporal relationship to obtain the thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, after obtaining the multi-scale time-series feature vectors of each signal, the feature vectors of the same time scale of each signal are fused to generate a multi-scale thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell. Then, the multi-scale thermal runaway trend feature vectors are fused according to the temporal relationship of each multi-scale thermal runaway trend feature vector to generate the final thermal runaway trend feature vector. For example, voltage, temperature, and air pressure signals each have three time-series feature vectors at three time scales. According to the time scale, voltage, temperature, and air pressure signals at the same time scale are fused to obtain three three-dimensional thermal runaway trend feature vectors. Then, these three three-dimensional thermal runaway trend feature vectors are fused to obtain a 9-dimensional thermal runaway trend feature vector. The specific method of feature fusion can be determined according to the actual situation, and this invention does not limit it.

[0044] The embodiments of the present invention fuse the multi-scale time-series feature vectors of each signal to obtain the multi-scale time-series feature vectors of each signal, which facilitates the subsequent identification of the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell.

[0045] In some possible embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell is determined based on the similarity between the thermal runaway trend feature vector and the preset thermal runaway standard trend vector, including: S501, Determine the standard trend vector of thermal runaway of the battery cell based on the type of the battery cell; S502, calculate the similarity between the thermal runaway trend feature vector and the thermal runaway standard trend vector. When the similarity is greater than or equal to the first similarity threshold and less than the second similarity threshold, the cell is determined to be in a cell depressurization trend; when the similarity is greater than or equal to the second similarity threshold, the cell is determined to be in a thermal runaway trend.

[0046] In this embodiment of the invention, the thermal runaway standard trend vector may be different for different types and models of battery cells. The thermal runaway standard trend vector of various types and signals of battery cells can be determined by pre-experimentation. Then, according to the type of battery cell to be judged, the corresponding thermal runaway standard trend vector is determined. Then, the similarity between the thermal runaway trend feature vector of the battery cell to be judged and the thermal runaway standard trend vector is calculated. The similarity calculation method can adopt existing technology, such as pre-similarity, etc. Then, according to the relationship between the similarity and the pre-set similarity threshold, the thermal runaway trend of the battery cell is determined.

[0047] Furthermore, based on the thermal runaway trend, multi-level thermal runaway early warning systems are implemented for battery cells, including: When a battery cell is in a state of pressure leakage, a battery cell pressure leakage alarm is triggered. When a battery cell is in a state of thermal runaway, a battery cell thermal runaway alarm is triggered.

[0048] In this embodiment of the invention, when the similarity is greater than or equal to a first similarity threshold and less than a second similarity threshold, the battery cell is determined to be in a depressurization trend, triggering a depressurization alarm. For example, if the battery cell's pressure rise is greater than 3 kPa, it indicates that the battery cell may be depressurizing, and the battery management system will issue a depressurization trend alarm. When the similarity is greater than or equal to the second similarity threshold, the battery cell is determined to be in a thermal runaway trend, triggering a thermal runaway alarm. For example, if the temperature rise rate is ≥1℃ / s and lasts for more than 3 seconds, and the pressure rise exceeds 20 kPa, it indicates that the battery cell has a thermal runaway trend and may experience accidents such as deflagration or leakage, and the battery management system will issue a thermal runaway trend alarm.

[0049] This invention provides multi-level alarms based on different thermal runaway trends in battery cells, improving alarm accuracy and the applicability of thermal runaway early warning.
