[0002] The design life of VRLA batteries in substations under float charging conditions is 8-12 years, but due to the influence of temperature, voltage deviation, and 10kHz-1GHz broadband electromagnetic interference, the actual life is often less than 5 years. The aging is essentially the irreversible degradation of the electrode-electrolyte interface, manifested as positive electrode grid corrosion and electrolyte drying, both of which directly change the charge adsorption and transfer capacity of the interfacial double layer.
[0003] The existing battery life assessment methods have the following defects: (1) They are highly invasive. Traditional capacity testing requires deep charging and discharging outside the DC system, which seriously threatens power supply safety; (2) They have poor anti-interference adaptability. Electromagnetic noise causes internal resistance and terminal voltage measurement errors to be as high as 15% or more; (3) Early aging identification is delayed. Conventional parameters have low sensitivity to initial grid corrosion and electrolyte drying, and cannot achieve early and effective warning; (4) From the perspective of electrochemical principles, although the dynamic characteristics of surface charge can directly characterize the stability of the double layer, nV level signals are difficult to collect stably in a strong electromagnetic environment, and there is a lack of deployment scheme of "direct battery + centralized display in the main control room".

[0012] Preferably, step S1 specifically includes: Under normal conditions, the system periodically and synchronously collects the float charge voltage, temperature, and internal resistance data of all battery cells and silently uploads them to the processing host. The discharge current is monitored in real time by a current sensor. When a large current discharge event of ≥0.1C is detected, the system automatically switches to high-frequency sampling mode. The high-frequency sampling mode is as follows: synchronously acquire the dynamic charge decay signal, temperature and internal resistance of the battery electrode surface at a specific sampling frequency.
[0013] This step can achieve the following beneficial effects: Under normal conditions, it periodically collects float charge data to maintain low power consumption. When a high current discharge event is detected, it automatically triggers a high-frequency sampling mode, ensuring rapid acquisition of surface charge dynamic signals under critical operating conditions. This solves the problem that conventional parameters have low sensitivity to early aging and cannot provide effective early warning.
[0014] Preferably, step S2 specifically includes: Step S21: In high-frequency sampling mode, the dynamic decay signal of the electrode surface charge is continuously acquired at a sampling rate of 0.1Hz, and the voltage decay curve is fitted based on the second-order RC equivalent circuit model to obtain the core characteristic parameters characterizing the double-layer state of the electrode interface. The core characteristic parameters include the dominant dissipation time constant. Total polarization amplitude Float charge offset ; Step S22, perform temperature compensation on the core feature parameters: The Arrhenius equation is used to quantify the effect of temperature on charge properties.

The Arrhenius equation and linear compensation are used to eliminate the evaluation error caused by temperature fluctuations, thus solving the problems of unstable acquisition of nV-level surface charge signals and the influence of ambient temperature on evaluation accuracy.
[0017] Preferably, step S21, which involves fitting a voltage decay curve based on a second-order RC equivalent circuit model to obtain core characteristic parameters characterizing the double-layer state at the electrode interface, specifically includes: Based on the second-order RC equivalent circuit model of VRLA, the voltage decay curve is fitted using the recursive least squares method. The expression for the voltage decay curve is as follows: , in, Let be the voltage value at time t. Open circuit voltage, , The polarization amplitude, , It is a time constant; The core feature parameters are extracted by fitting the contributions of the electric double-layer capacitance branch C1-R1 and the electrode polarization branch C2-R2.
[0018] This step can achieve the following beneficial effects: By fitting the voltage decay curve using a second-order RC equivalent circuit model, and accurately separating the contributions of the double-layer capacitance branch and the electrode polarization branch using the recursive least squares method, core characteristic parameters such as the dominant dissipation time constant and the total polarization amplitude are extracted.

[0021] Step S32: Based on the change patterns of core characteristic parameters and auxiliary parameters, and using battery aging diagnosis rules, diagnose the dominant cause of the current aging of the battery. The battery aging diagnosis rules include: When the floating charge offset Increase and dominate the dissipation time constant When the value decreases, it indicates that the difference between the steady-state OCV and the nominal float charge voltage increases, reflecting a reduction in the active area of the electrode. It is determined that the main cause of battery aging is "corrosion of the positive plate grid". When the total polarization amplitude Decrease and rate of change of internal resistance When the value increases, it indicates that the electrolyte drying out has blocked the ion conduction pathway and weakened the polarization effect. Therefore, the main cause of battery aging is determined to be "electrolyte drying out".
[0022] This step can achieve the following beneficial effects: By combining the compensated core characteristic parameters with auxiliary parameters such as internal resistance change rate and OCV decay rate through a weighted fusion model, the SOH value is calculated. Based on the parameter change pattern, the main cause of aging is diagnosed, which solves the problems of low evaluation accuracy and inability to distinguish between different aging mechanisms such as grid corrosion and electrolyte drying in traditional methods.

[0024] This step can achieve the following beneficial effects: The hierarchical alarm mechanism issues different maintenance warnings and emergency alarms when the SOH drops to different thresholds, and directly displays the faulty battery number and the cause of aging. This solves the problem that maintenance personnel cannot quickly locate faulty batteries and determine the type of aging, and is compatible with the "distributed data collection-centralized operation and maintenance" management model of substations.
[0025] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: It possesses multi-scenario adaptability: the parameter acquisition unit is directly mounted on the battery body, and through the design of guide rail clips and wall-mounted brackets, it adapts to the enclosed environment of DC power cabinets and the humid and dusty environment of battery rooms, without requiring modification of existing layouts, greatly improving versatility and solving the problem of strong invasiveness in existing technologies; it has excellent anti-interference performance: adopting a multi-layer electromagnetic shielding cover and protective ring structure, combined with a flight-level operational amplifier, it overcomes the problem of stable acquisition of nV-level surface charge signals under 10kHz-1GHz wideband electromagnetic interference, reducing measurement errors; it has high evaluation accuracy and timely early warning: based on the dynamic characteristics of surface charge, it integrates temperature compensation and internal resistance, OCV... The system assists in verification by constructing a hierarchical weighted evaluation model, which can reduce SOH evaluation errors and significantly improve accuracy compared to the traditional internal resistance method. It can identify initial grid corrosion and electrolyte drying 6-12 months in advance, enabling early warning. It is highly compatible with various operation and maintenance modes: through a "distributed acquisition-centralized monitoring" architecture, the monitoring data of each battery is displayed on the DC power supply screen, supporting real-time monitoring, trend analysis, and hierarchical alarms. It is adapted to the "distributed installation + centralized operation and maintenance" management mode of substations, reducing operation and maintenance costs. Furthermore, the system is compatible with substation standard protocols such as IEC61850 and can seamlessly connect with existing DC systems and monitoring networks.

The DC system consists of 54 2V / 150Ah VRLA batteries, mounted on a rack in a separate battery room. Step 1, Parameter Acquisition Unit Deployment: A total of 7 8-channel parameter acquisition units were installed, each fixed to the side of the battery rack via wall-mounted brackets; each parameter acquisition unit was connected to the fusion processing host unit via single-mode fiber optic cable with a transmission distance of 800m; the fusion processing host unit communicated with the DC screen display in the main control room via a forward isolation device; the grounding terminal of the shielding cover was connected to the grounding grid in the battery room, with a measured grounding resistance of 0.6Ω.
[0055] Step 2, System Configuration: Import the device ICD file into the dedicated display screen of the DC power supply in the main control room, complete the IEC61850 model configuration, and map data points (such as BatCell32 / SOH, BatCell32 / AgingCause); load the initial parameters for "2V / 200AhVRLA": τ0=1.58×10 4s, A0=1.03V, ΔV0=0.022V, R0=0.17mΩ, weighting coefficients [k1,k2,k3,k4,k5]=[0.3,0.25,0.25,0.15,0.05]; set alarm thresholds: SOH≤80% triggers a yellow audible and visual alarm, SOH≤60% triggers a red audible and visual emergency alarm; configure remote communication to map key data such as the lowest SOH of the entire group, the number of batteries with serious alarms, and the total alarm signal to the DL / T634.5104 protocol point table, and connect to the dispatch data network through a forward isolation device.
[0056] Step 3, Monitoring Process: The system collects data at 5-minute intervals for each battery. The voltage was stable between 0.02 and 0.04V, and the SOH value was ≥90%. The data was uploaded to the DC power supply display screen in the main control room in real time. The trend curve was stable and no alarms were generated. A single-phase ground fault occurred on the 110kV line, and the No. 35 circuit breaker tripped. The discharge current became 0.2C. The event was captured by the GOOSE message, and the high-frequency sampling mode was immediately triggered. Taking battery No. 32 in the battery compartment as an example, the dominant dissipation time constant τ = 1.05 × 10⁻⁶ is obtained by fitting the voltage decay curve based on a second-order RC model. 4 s, total polarization amplitude A = 0.72V; using the Arrhenius equation, temperature compensation was applied to the data collected at the current ambient temperature of 28℃ to obtain the compensated dominant dissipation time constant. =1.02×10 4 s. The compensated total polarization amplitude A_comp = 0.70V; the steady-state OCV of the float charge is 2.18V, and the nominal float charge voltage is 2.25V, therefore... =0.07V; Current measured internal resistance R=0.26mΩ, =0.17 / 0.26≈0.654; OCV decay rate ΔOCV=7%, new battery OCV is 2.34V, current is 2.18V; The current state of health (SOH) of the battery is calculated, and it is found that the SOH of battery No. 32 is 58.8%, which reaches the emergency alarm threshold. according to" Increase and The parameters indicating a decrease in SOH were determined to be primarily due to "positive grid corrosion." A red emergency alarm pop-up immediately appeared on the DC power supply screen in the main control room, displaying "Battery No. 32 SOH = 58.8% (Emergency Alarm), Cause of Aging: Positive Grid Corrosion," and simultaneously triggered an audible and visual alert. Maintenance personnel checked the battery's trend data for the past three months on the display screen, confirming a continuous decrease in SOH, with an average monthly decrease of 3.2%, and scheduled maintenance and replacement for the following day.
