[0084] Step 2: Multi-source data acquisition and adaptive preprocessing

[0085] In order to improve the data quality and retain the early fault characteristics, an adaptive sliding window spectrum filtering technology is used to carry out noise reduction processing on the original data. The filter window length and the cut-off frequency are dynamically adjusted according to the real-time estimated local signal-to-noise ratio , and the specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0086] (1),

[0087] (2),

[0088] wherein is the local signal-to-noise ratio estimation, is the reference window length, is a preset parameter.

[0089] Subsequently, multi-scale feature fusion is carried out on the filtered multi-modal data; the feature correlation graph is constructed by calculating the mutual information I(m;n) between different modal features m and n, and the edge weight is calculated according to the following formula:

[0090] (3),

[0092] wherein, is the adjacency matrix with self-connection, is the corresponding degree matrix, is a trainable weight matrix, and σ is an activation function; finally, the fusion feature dataset is obtained.

[0093] The implementation process of step 3 intelligent prediction based on deep decoupling multi-attention optimization network is as follows:

[0094] The fusion feature dataset obtained in step 2 is input into a deep decoupling multi-attention optimization network. The network includes three functionally decoupled and parallel processed neural network branches:

[0095] (3.1) Positioning branch: using a gated cross-modal attention mechanism, first calculate the attention weights between different modal features:

[0096] (5),

[0097] where are projections from different modalities respectively. A gating vector is introduced to dynamically select key modal information:

[0098] (6),

[0099] where, is a trainable weight matrix, is a trainable bias vector. The fused feature representation is:

[0100] (7),

[0101] Finally, the graph attention network (GAT) is used to aggregate the battery module topology information, and the abnormal probability distribution of each battery node is output .

[0102] (3.2) Time series warning branch: a stacked causal dilated convolution structure is used to capture long-term temporal dependencies; the output of the lth layer at time t is : (8),

[0103] where the dilation rate ; finally output the predicted thermal runaway remaining time and dynamic risk index R(t);

[0104] (3.3) Energy regression branch: introduce physical consistency constraints in the regression network; this branch uses a multi-layer perceptron to regress the equivalent energy and reaction parameters, and calculates the physical consistency loss Lphysics to constrain network training: (9),

[0105] where is the activation energy (prior), is the heat capacity, and hA is the heat dissipation coefficient. After the physical layer correction, the final estimated value of the equivalent energy of the thermal runaway .

[0106] (3.4) The outputs of the three branches are fused into the final comprehensive prediction result through an adaptive weighting fusion based on uncertainty, a calibration factor, a sharpening gate, and a triple mechanism of adaptive temperature coefficient, as follows:

[0107] (10),

[0108] where, is the normalized uncertainty, is the uncertainty calibration factor is the saturation gate function, is the decision sharpening index, is the adaptive temperature coefficient, is the output of each branch.

[0109] The implementation process of the intelligent fire extinguishing decision based on model predictive control in step 4 is as follows:

[0110] When the warning time is lower than the preset threshold, the fire extinguishing decision is triggered. First, the total demand of fire extinguishing agent is calculated through a nonlinear dose mapping model:

[0111] (11),

[0112] where, is the basic coefficient, which is the basic effectiveness coefficient of the fire extinguishing agent, calibrated by the characteristics of the fire extinguishing agent and the standard fire experiment; is the time urgency decay coefficient, which controls the influence rate of the warning time on the demand,

[0113] are the energy equivalent influence coefficient and the risk change rate influence coefficient, respectively, determined by historical data regression analysis.

[0114] The process of optimization decision and instruction generation through the model predictive control framework in step 4 is as follows:

[0115] (4.1) State modeling and objective function definition: a discrete state space model is established with the target area temperature , the characteristic gas concentration , and the remaining fire extinguishing agent amount as state variables, and the state vector is ; the optimization objective function is defined to minimize the system state deviation and control amount consumption in the prediction time domain:

[0118] (4.2) Constraint integration: the total extinguishing agent demand is taken as a key resource constraint, combined with system physical limits, to form a complete set of constraints for the optimization problem:

[0119] (13),

[0120] where, is the amount of extinguishing agent consumed before the current control period;

[0121] The implementation process of the command generation and output in step 4 is as follows:

[0122] The first element of the optimal control sequence is taken as the control command for the current period, i.e., the partition extinguishing agent flow command, which is output to the precise execution and feedback unit.

[0123] The numerical optimization solver based on the interior point method or the efficient set method is used to ensure that the solution is completed within the preset control period (≤1 second) under the limited computing power of the edge computing device, meeting the real-time requirements.

[0124] The model predictive control framework adopts an adaptive weight adjustment strategy; the weight matrix and R are dynamically adjusted according to the warning time and the risk index :

[0125] (14),

[0126] (15),

[0127] where, is the baseline weight, is the adjustment coefficient; this strategy makes the optimization objective more inclined to quickly reduce the system state deviation when the warning time is urgent or the risk is rapidly increasing.

[0128] The implementation process of the online rolling optimization solution in step 4 is as follows:

[0129] At each control period , based on the latest system state and the prediction model , a numerical optimization solver is used to solve the above constrained optimization problem online to obtain the optimal control sequence in the prediction horizon;

[0130] The closed-loop correction mechanism in step 5 is as follows:

[0131] After each control cycle is executed, the actual measured system state is compared with the state predicted in the previous cycle, and the prediction error is calculated ; using the error, the state space model parameters in the subsequent prediction time domain are fine-tuned online through a Kalman filter or a moving average method to reduce the impact of model mismatch and improve the accuracy of rolling optimization.

[0132] Further, the specific details of step 5 are as follows:

[0133] As Figure 3 shown, the fire extinguishing actuator of the present application adopts a flexible partition design, which is one of the key innovations of the present application. This mechanism not only realizes precise spatial positioning of fire extinguishing, but also has high adaptability and reliability.

[0134] 1. Mechanism structure composition

[0135] The flexible partition fire extinguishing mechanism mainly includes the following core components:

[0136] Partitioned tank unit: The fire extinguishing agent tank adopts an independent design of upper and lower partitions, and each partitioned tank has a capacity of 300-500ml, which is filled with hot aerosol fire extinguishing agent. The tank is equipped with a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor for real-time monitoring of the internal state.

[0137] Flexible connecting pipeline: A flexible metal bellows or silicone tube that is resistant to high temperature and corrosion is used to connect the tank and the spray head. This flexible design allows the pipeline to bend and stretch within a certain range to adapt to the complex spatial layout and possible deformation of the battery pack.

[0138] Multi-degree-of-freedom spray head array: Each partition is equipped with 2-4 adjustable spray heads. The spray head is connected with a spherical hinge and has two rotational degrees of freedom (pitch and yaw), which can be manually or through a micro motor to preset the angle in the initialization stage, ensuring that the spray covers all battery cells in the partition without dead angles. The spray head is provided with an atomizing core to fully atomize the fire extinguishing agent.

[0139] High-speed electromagnetic valve: A high-speed response electromagnetic valve (response time <10ms) is installed at the outlet of each tank, which is directly controlled by the intelligent processing and decision unit to realize the rapid and accurate release of the fire extinguishing agent.

[0140] Self-adaptive sealing device: A self-adaptive sealing ring is provided between the spray head and the battery box mounting hole. The sealing ring is made of a composite material of memory alloy and high-temperature resistant rubber, which can automatically adjust the sealing pressure when the temperature changes to ensure long-term sealing reliability.

[0141] 2. Working principle of flexible mechanism​

[0142] When the intelligent processing and decision unit outputs the positioning of the DMAO-Net After determining the partition (upper or lower) where the faulty battery is located, the following process is performed:

[0143] 1. Instruction reception: The control circuit corresponding to the partition receives the injection instruction from the MPC controller, including the injection duration and flow.

[0144] 2. Valve start: The high-speed electromagnetic valve is opened within milliseconds, and the extinguishing agent is driven by the pressurized gas built-in the storage tank, flowing to the nozzle array through flexible pipelines.

[0145] 3. Directional atomization injection: The extinguishing agent is crushed into micron-sized particles by the atomization core inside the nozzle, forming aerosol smoke, and accurately covering the faulty battery and its surrounding area according to the preset angle. The flexible pipeline can buffer pressure impact and reduce vibration transmission.

[0146] 4. Flow monitoring and adjustment: Through PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control of the electromagnetic valve, combined with storage tank pressure feedback, accurate adjustment of the flow is realized to match the injection curve optimized by the MPC.

[0147] 5. Feedback and shutdown: After reaching the predetermined injection amount, the electromagnetic valve is closed. The system monitors the extinguishing effect in real time through temperature and gas sensors, and feeds back the data to the MPC controller to determine whether additional injection is needed.

[0148] The specific operation steps and examples of the lithium battery thermal runaway intelligent control method described in the present application are as follows:

[0149] Step 1: Multi-source data acquisition and adaptive preprocessing

[0150] First, real-time data is obtained from the sensor array arranged in the battery module. Temperature monitoring uses distributed fiber Bragg grating sensors with a sampling frequency of 1 Hz at each cell surface and key points of the module; voltage and current data are obtained synchronously through the CAN bus of the battery management system at a frequency of 10 Hz; CO and H2 sensitive characteristic gas sensors are arranged near the pressure relief valve at the top of the module, with a sampling frequency of 0.5 Hz; vibration signals are collected by MEMS accelerometers attached to the side panels of the module, with a frequency of 2 kHz. After all the raw data is collected into the edge computing unit (using Huawei Atlas 200 AI acceleration module), adaptive sliding window spectral filtering is performed. The filtering window length and the cutoff frequency are dynamically adjusted according to the real-time estimated local signal-to-noise ratio , and the specific calculation formula is:

[0151] (16),

[0152] (17),

[0153] wherein, is the reference window length, for example, set to 100 sampling points; is the adjustment coefficient, which is empirically set to 0.5, 0.1 and 1.0 respectively; is the historical mean and standard deviation of the signal-to-noise ratio. This process can effectively suppress high-frequency noise and periodic interference while completely preserving the low-frequency trend characteristics related to early thermal runaway.

[0154] Step 2: Multimodal feature fusion and key feature extraction and between different modal features and the edge weights of the feature correlation graph are constructed according to the following formula:

[0155] (18),

[0156] wherein, is the bandwidth parameter, usually set to 0.5. Then, the original features are enhanced using a graph convolution network:

[0157] (19),

[0158] wherein, is the adjacency matrix with self-connection, is the corresponding degree matrix, is the trainable weight matrix, is the ReLU activation function. At the same time, the system automatically calculates a number of expert experience features such as "maximum temperature rise rate (°C / min)", "CO to H2 concentration ratio", "200-500Hz frequency band vibration energy", etc. These automatically extracted deep features and artificially defined experience features together form a high-dimensional fusion feature set, which is used as the input of the deep prediction model.

[0159] Step 3: DMAO-Net model construction, training and lightweight deployment

[0160] The features obtained in step 2 are predicted using a deep decoupling multi-attention optimization network (DMAO-Net). This network contains three parallel and functionally decoupled branches:

[0161] The positioning branch adopts a 2-layer gated cross-modal attention (GCMA) mechanism with a hidden layer dimension of 128, which is used to fuse the temperature, gas, and voltage modalities. The cross-modal attention weight is calculated as follows:

[0162] (20),

[0163] and the gating vector dynamically selects the key information, and finally outputs the anomaly probability of each battery cell .

[0164] The timing warning branch contains 4 layers of causal dilated convolution layers with dilation rates of 1, 2, 4, and 8, respectively, and a convolution kernel size of 3. The output of the first layer at time t is:

[0165] (21),

[0166] This structure can exponentially expand the receptive field and effectively capture long-term temporal dependencies, outputting the warning time and risk index .

[0167] The energy regression branch contains 3 layers of fully connected layers, and introduces a physical information constraint in the output layer. The physical consistency loss function is:

[0168] (22),

[0169] This loss forces the predicted temperature trajectory to conform to the simplified reaction kinetics described by the Arrhenius equation, outputting the corrected energy equivalent . The outputs of the three branches are fused through an adaptive weighting based on uncertainty, as well as a calibration factor, sharpening gating, and adaptive temperature coefficient triple mechanism to generate the final comprehensive prediction result, with weights . The network is trained using historical thermal runaway experiment data, with the total loss . To meet the real-time requirements of edge deployment, the knowledge of the trained complex model (teacher network) is transferred to a simplified student network using adversarial knowledge distillation technology. The final deployed model has a parameter size of less than 5M, and the inference period on the Atlas 200 platform does not exceed 2 seconds.

[0170] Step 4: Fire extinguishing decision optimization and execution based on model predictive control (MPC)

[0171] When the warning time output by the DMAO-Net model in step 3 is less than the preset action threshold (e.g., 300 seconds), the intelligent fire extinguishing decision is triggered. First, calculate the estimated total demand for fire extinguishing agent as follows: ​​

[0172] (23),

[0173] wherein, are model parameters calibrated by a large number of experiments, for example, can be set to 100, 0.01, 0.8 and 10 respectively. Subsequently, the model predictive control (MPC) module is started to establish a discrete state space model with the target area temperature, gas concentration and residual extinguishing agent amount as state variables with a control period of 1 second. In each control period , a rolling optimization problem of step prediction horizon is solved:

[0174] (24)

[0175] The future optimal control sequence is obtained by online optimization using the efficient solver OSQP, and the flexible partition fire extinguishing mechanism is driven by the MPC decision instruction. The high-speed electromagnetic valve corresponding to one of the upper and lower zones (response time <10 ms) is opened, and the aerosol extinguishing agent pre-pressurized to 2.5 MPa in the storage tank is sent to the multi-degree-of-freedom nozzle (Dv90 <50 μm) located at a preset angle through the flexible metal bellows pipe, and the sprayed aerosol extinguishing agent is accurately sprayed to the corresponding partition on fire through the flexible bellows pipe; the electromagnetic valve opening is controlled by PWM signal, and then the injection flow is closed-loop regulated. For details, please see the original text.

[0176] The present application will take an electric vehicle battery pack composed of 96 21700 type lithium ion cells as an example to explain the working principle, process and results of the battery pack. When continuously fast charging, the 25th cell located in the upper partition abnormally heats up due to internal micro-short circuit.

[0177] At the early stage t=120s, through adaptive sliding window spectral filtering and multi-scale feature fusion on the multi-modal data collected by the multi-source sensor array, the following features are extracted: the temperature rise rate of the 25th cell reaches 0.5℃ / min (the average value of the adjacent cells is 0.1℃ / min), the concentration change rate of the characteristic gas CO reaches 0.03ppm / s, and the vibration energy in the frequency band of 200-500Hz reaches 0.08g². Although these features are relatively weak, they are always in an enhanced state.

[0178] The fused features are taken as input into a deep decoupling multi-attention optimization network, and three branches are processed in parallel under the network, which are a positioning branch, a timing early warning branch and an energy regression branch. The output of the positioning branch is the probability of the abnormality of the No. 25 battery cell, which is 0.82 (the threshold is 0.7); the output of the timing early warning branch is the remaining time of thermal runaway, which is 85 seconds; and the output of the energy regression branch is the potential released energy equivalent, which is about 0.8 MJ. Finally, the final prediction result is obtained by weighting and fusing the uncertainty of the network prediction output.

[0179] According to the prediction result, intelligent fire extinguishing decision is started, and after calculation by a nonlinear dose mapping model, the total amount of extinguishing agent is about 150 ml. Based on the model predictive control framework, an optimal control sequence is obtained through rolling horizon optimization in a 1 s control cycle, which indicates that the accurate spraying time of the upper partition is about 5 s, and the spraying amount is about 105 ml. Then, the command is issued to drive the upper partition fire extinguishing mechanism to act. Subsequently, the high-speed electromagnetic valve is opened, the pre-pressurized 2.0 Mpa thermal aerosol extinguishing agent in the tank is sent into the nozzle with a sighting angle through a flexible pipeline, and then atomized into Dv90 < 60 μm particles, and then sprayed out. The return data after spraying (t = 125 s) is: the maximum temperature of the target battery cell decreases from 42.5℃ to 40.8℃, and the temperature rise rate is 0.2℃ / min; the CO concentration is stable at 15 ppm and the growth rate is significantly reduced. The system judges that the fire tends to be stable and enters the monitoring state. The whole upper partition uses about 21% of the extinguishing agent, and the remaining resources of the lower partition are on standby.

[0180] Finally, the early inhibition of thermal runaway is realized, and compared with the traditional single threshold scheme, the warning time is increased from 20-40 seconds to 60-90 seconds, the ability from module level warning to single cell level warning is realized, the extinguishing agent consumption is reduced by about 40-60% compared with the previous traditional full package spraying method, and the average reasoning time of the edge device of the system is 1.8 seconds. The example verifies that the "multi-modal early perception-intelligent fusion prediction-optimization decision execution" closed loop is beneficial to realize the early discovery, accurate positioning, drug saving, short time, low cost and other characteristics of lithium battery thermal runaway protection.

[0181] In one embodiment of the present application, a lithium battery thermal runaway intelligent control method and system are proposed, which fuses multi-modal sensing information such as voltage, current, temperature, gas, vibration, etc. into a deep decoupling multi-attention optimization network (DMAO-Net) for early and accurate early warning of thermal runaway; and adopts a model predictive control (MPC) framework and a flexible partition fire extinguishing mechanism to realize self-perception, self-decision and self-execution, thereby completing the entire intelligent safety protection closed loop; the DMAO-Net completes accurate positioning of abnormal single cells, thermal runaway remaining time prediction and energy release quantification through decoupled positioning, early warning and energy evaluation branches; the MPC controller is used to combine the predicted value to rollingly optimize the amount of fire extinguishing agent; and the flexible partition execution mechanism is used to accurately and quantitatively release the fire extinguishing agent. The method can solve the problems of early warning lag, unclear positioning and extensive fire extinguishing mode of traditional methods, and can greatly improve the active safety protection capability of the lithium battery system.

[0182] Figure 1 A three-layer hardware architecture from perception to execution of the system and data flow and control flow therebetween are described in detail:

[0183] The perception layer (data acquisition) uses a multi-source sensor array (including voltage, current, temperature, gas, vibration, etc.) to acquire the state raw data of the battery.

[0184] The calculation and decision layer (edge intelligent processing) is the entire core processing part, after the received data is accepted from the perception layer, it enters the adaptive filtering and feature extraction module - DMAO-Net - deep decoupling multi-attention optimization network prediction model - MPC decision maker - model predictive control in turn, and finally forms the process from data to processing, from risk to prediction, to decision making, and fire extinguishing strategy making.

[0185] The implementation and feedback layer (accurate physical intervention) is manifested as the "upper zone fire extinguishing unit" and the "lower zone fire extinguishing unit" separated by a partition; each unit includes a storage tank, a valve, a spray head, etc.; this layer makes the corresponding partition mechanism execute the fire extinguishing task according to the MPC instruction, and feeds back the battery state data after the fire extinguishing is completed to the decision layer, constituting a closed loop control.

[0186] Figure 2 The model structure diagram of the deep decoupling multi-attention optimization network (DMAO-Net) is shown

[0187] Shared feature encoding: first, the basic features of the input multi-modal feature tensor are obtained through a shared bottom layer encoding network.

[0188] Decoupled parallel processing: three functionally decoupled branches, namely gated cross-modal attention (GCMA), which is responsible for fault location output Pnode; time causal dilated convolution (TCausal-DC) branch, which is responsible for time warning output Tw, R(t); and physical information energy regression (PIER) branch, which is responsible for energy equivalent evaluation output Qe.

[0189] Uncertainty weighted fusion: the output derived from the branch is finally sent to the uncertainty weighted fusion layer, where the uncertainty change inherent in each branch prediction is used to construct the weighting coefficient, and the relevant position, warning, energy and risk index in the comprehensive prediction information are weighted and fused.

[0190] Figure 3 The physical layout and corresponding relationship of the flexible partition fire extinguishing actuator and the battery module are shown:

[0191] Spatial partition layout: the battery module array can be expressed as: the battery module array is divided into "upper zone" and "lower zone" two separate protection areas.

[0192] Mechanism component correspondence: each zone is equipped with a set of relatively independent fire extinguishing units, including fire extinguishing agent storage tanks (such as S1, S2) and a set of spray arrays arranged in each zone through flexible pipelines (such as N1 / N2 / M1 / M2), the figure shows that the angle of the spray head can be adjusted to cover all the battery monomers in the corresponding zone.

[0193] Precise targeting relationship: it can be seen that the spatial "partitioned tank-flexible pipeline-adjustable spray head" and the "corresponding partitioned battery module" have spatial targeting, which is the physical basis for precise intervention.

[0194] Figure 4 The whole process of intelligent decision-making steps of model predictive control closed-loop fire extinguishing logic is shown:

[0195] System startup and data acquisition: after starting the program, it enters the process of real-time acquisition of dynamic multi-modal sensor data of the system.

[0196] Data processing and model inference: after adaptive filtering and feature extraction of the collected data, the extracted features are input into the DMAO-Net prediction model for real-time inference.

[0197] Risk judgment and early warning triggering: judge whether the risk prediction value output by the model is greater than the threshold value, if it is less than or equal to the threshold value, return to continue data acquisition, otherwise immediately trigger the early warning signal.

[0198] Optimization decision making: when the early warning signal is sent, the MPC is started, and the state space model of the controlled object is established with the predicted output, and the optimal control instruction is obtained by solving the optimization problem in the bounded finite time domain.

[0199] Precise execution and feedback: the corresponding partition fire extinguishing equipment is driven to perform the first injection, and a certain delay is performed, the effect after fire extinguishing is observed in the delay time, and the data information of the environment of the area is collected.

[0200] Effect evaluation and closed loop adjustment: whether the fire condition is stable is evaluated according to the feedback, and the working state of the system is changed according to the evaluation result: if it is stable, the system enters the enhanced monitoring mode; if it is not stable, the current condition is updated and the MPC optimization is re-executed, the action is taken to supplement the injection amount, and the cycle of 'perception-decision-making-execution-feedback' control is performed until the fire is reduced or the warning standard is reached.

[0201] The application provides a lithium battery thermal runaway intelligent control method and system, and there are many methods and ways to specifically implement the technical scheme. The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the application, and it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, some improvements and refinements can be made without departing from the principle of the application, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the application. The components not explicitly described in the embodiment can be realized by using the existing technology.
