Battery state of charge calibration method, device, medium and vehicle

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This disclosure claims priority to a Chinese patent application filed with the Patent Office of China on October 31, 2023, with application number 202311435152.X and titled “Battery State of Charge Calibration Method, Device, Medium and Vehicle,” the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference into this disclosure. Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a battery state of charge calibration method, device, medium and vehicle. Background Art

[0004] For new energy vehicles, the battery's state of charge (SOC) is one of the most important states. Accurately estimating the battery's SOC can achieve more efficient use of new energy vehicles and avoid unsafe use of the battery.

[0005] Currently, the chronoamperometry method is commonly used to estimate the battery's state of charge. However, this method is subject to measurement errors, and as these errors accumulate, the deviation between the calculated value and the actual value becomes increasingly larger. Therefore, it is necessary to calibrate the battery's state of charge in conjunction with the static voltage to eliminate the impact of the cumulative errors introduced by the chronoamperometry method.

[0006] However, the static voltage calibration method has significant limitations: First, if the platform voltage of the battery is relatively stable, for example, stable at around 3.2V, then a larger range of state of charge can be corresponded within a small voltage range of the battery. For example, when the battery voltage is between 3.18V and 3.35V, the corresponding state of charge is 10%-99%. Therefore, even a small error in voltage may have a significant impact on the calibration of the state of charge, making it difficult to obtain the accurate state of charge of the battery through the static voltage calibration method, resulting in inaccurate calibration. Second, the static voltage calibration method requires the battery pack to be in a static state for a long time, so that the internal structure of the battery tends to be stable, thereby eliminating the influence of battery polarization on the voltage. However, it is difficult to calibrate effectively when the battery pack is in a charging or discharging state, resulting in large deviations in the state of charge calculation.

Upon determining that the real-time expansion force has reached an extreme value or inflection point, the battery's current SOC is then obtained. Based on a comparison of the current SOC with a target SOC calibration interval, the interference from inconsistent extreme values ​​or inflection points (i.e., extreme values ​​or inflection points in the correspondence between the expansion force and the SOC for a portion or all of the battery's cycle counts) is eliminated. Only when the current SOC falls within the target SOC calibration interval is the target SOC calibration interval and the standard SOC corresponding to the target cycle calibration interval within which the current cycle count falls are obtained. This means that the same SOC corresponding to the extreme value or inflection point in the correspondence between the expansion force and the SOC for a portion or all of the battery's cycle counts is obtained. In this way, based on the expansion force of the battery, the corresponding standard state of charge can be quickly and accurately determined, so that the battery's state of charge can be accurately calibrated using the standard state of charge. There is no need to leave the battery stationary for a long time. The state of charge can be effectively calibrated when the battery pack is in a charging or discharging state, which is suitable for charging or discharging conditions.

Obviously, for ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative work.

[0054] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of the present disclosure, the scheme of the present disclosure will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features therein can be combined with each other in the absence of conflict.

[0055] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; it is obvious that the embodiments in the specification are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0056] The inventors have found that, referring to Figure 1, the expansion force and state of charge curves of the battery (a lithium iron phosphate battery is used as an example in the embodiment of the present disclosure) at different cycle numbers have consistent changing trends. As can be clearly seen from Figure 1, when the state of charge is around 0.35 (35%) (when the number of cycles is less than or equal to 600, the state of charge is 0.36, and when the number of cycles is greater than 600, the state of charge is 0.34), the expansion force at different cycle numbers is a local maximum, i.e., a maximum value. When the state of charge is 0.65 (65%), the expansion force at different cycle numbers is a local minimum, i.e., a minimum value. When the state of charge is 0.48 (48%), the expansion force at different cycle numbers is an inflection point value. Therefore, by limiting the cycle number interval, a unique corresponding state of charge can be determined based on the minimum, maximum, or inflection point value of the expansion force, i.e., within the cycle number interval, the state of charge does not change with the change of the cycle number. Therefore, when calibrating the battery's state of charge, by determining the state of charge corresponding to the battery's expansion force reaching an extreme value or an inflection point value, the current state of charge can be accurately calibrated with strong real-time performance.

[0057] Specifically, FIG2 is a flow chart of a battery state of charge calibration method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. This method is applicable to the situation where the state of charge of a lithium iron phosphate battery is calibrated, and can be applied when the battery is in a charging or discharging state (for example, when a vehicle is driving). This method can be performed by a battery state of charge calibration device, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware. As shown in FIG2, the method includes the following steps:

[0058] S110 : Obtain the current cycle number and real-time expansion force of the battery.

[0059] In the present disclosure, a battery's charge from zero to full charge can be considered as one cycle, or a battery's charge from full charge to full discharge can be considered as one cycle. Considering that in actual applications, a battery generally does not charge from zero to full charge, nor does it charge from full charge to full discharge during charging. Therefore, in order to accurately obtain the current number of cycles of the battery, in some embodiments, obtaining the current number of cycles of the battery includes: obtaining the current total charge capacity of the battery; rounding up the ratio of the total charge capacity to the full charge capacity of the battery to obtain the current number of cycles. Specifically, the battery management system accumulates the charge capacity of the battery, that is, the sum of the historical charge capacity and the real-time charge capacity during the current charging process to obtain the current total charge capacity of the battery; then divides the total charge capacity by the full charge capacity of the battery to obtain a ratio. Since this ratio is mostly not an integer, the ratio should be rounded up to obtain the current number of cycles. For example, if the ratio of the total charge capacity to the full charge capacity of the battery is 99.4, then 99.4 is rounded up to 100, and the current number of cycles is 100. It is understandable that the above example uses charging as an example to calculate the current cycle number. Similarly, in other examples, the current cycle number can also be calculated based on the total discharged power.

[0060] In addition, a pressure sensor, such as a piezoresistive thin film pressure sensor, may be provided inside the battery to collect the real-time expansion force of the battery and transmit the real-time expansion force to the battery management system.

[0061] S120 . When it is determined that the real-time expansion force under the current number of cycles reaches the target value, obtain the current state of charge of the battery.

[0062] The target value includes at least one of an extreme value and an inflection point value, and extreme values ​​include a maximum value and a minimum value. The current state of charge can be obtained using methods such as the chronoamperometry method, which may have estimation errors. In the disclosed embodiments, the current state of charge can be calibrated only when the real-time expansion force reaches an extreme value; or only when the real-time expansion force reaches an inflection point value; or both when the real-time expansion force reaches an extreme value and when the real-time expansion force reaches an inflection point value. The specific setting can be based on the error in the estimated state of charge during the entire charging or discharging process. For example, if the error in the estimated state of charge during the entire charging or discharging process is small, the current state of charge can be calibrated only when the real-time expansion force reaches an extreme value or an inflection point value. If the error in the estimated state of charge during the entire charging or discharging process is large, the current state of charge should be calibrated when the real-time expansion force reaches both an extreme value and an inflection point value. In this way, the battery's state of charge can be more accurate throughout the entire charging or discharging process.

[0063] In order to accurately determine whether the real-time expansion force under the current number of cycles reaches the target value, and to distinguish whether the target value is an extreme value or an inflection point value, the present disclosure provides the following embodiments:

[0064] In some embodiments, determining whether the real-time expansion force at the current number of cycles reaches a target value includes: obtaining the real-time power level of the battery; and determining that the real-time expansion force at the current number of cycles reaches the target value when the differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time power level is equal to 0 based on a differential function of the battery expansion force at the current number of cycles with respect to the power level.

[0065] It's important to note that the real-time charge level represents the battery's actual remaining charge, while the SOC reflects the remaining charge. Therefore, using the differential function of the battery's expansion force with respect to charge level does not affect the determination of whether the real-time expansion force has reached the target value. The acquired real-time charge level is more accurate than the estimated SOC. Therefore, using the real-time expansion force to differentiate the real-time charge level more accurately determines whether the real-time expansion force has reached the target value for the current number of cycles.

[0066] Specifically, when the battery is charging, the ampere-hour integration method can be used to calculate the battery charging capacity in real time. The obtained battery charging capacity is the real-time battery capacity. When the battery is discharging, the ampere-hour integration method can be used to calculate the battery discharge capacity in real time. The real-time battery capacity is calculated by subtracting the battery discharge capacity from the full battery capacity. Furthermore, based on the relationship between the graph of the battery expansion force with respect to the battery capacity and the differential function of the battery expansion force with respect to the battery capacity, if the differential function is a first-order differential function, if the first differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time battery capacity is determined to be 0, then the real-time expansion force at the current cycle number has reached its extreme value. If the differential function is a second-order differential function, if the second differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time battery capacity is determined to be 0, then the real-time expansion force at the current cycle number has reached its inflection point value.

[0067] S130: If the current state of charge is within the target state of charge calibration interval, determine the target cycle number calibration interval within which the current cycle number is located, and obtain a standard state of charge corresponding to both the target state of charge calibration interval and the target cycle number calibration interval.

[0068] Among them, at any cycle number within the target cycle number calibration interval, the target value located in the target state of charge calibration interval is unique and corresponds to the same standard state of charge.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the target state of charge calibration interval is used to limit the landing range of the standard state of charge. Only when the current state of charge is within the target state of charge calibration interval can the target value be determined to be a valid target value, that is, the target values ​​at each cycle number within the target cycle number calibration interval all correspond to the same standard state of charge. Otherwise, if the target value is an invalid target value, that is, the target values ​​at each cycle number within the target cycle number calibration interval correspond to different states of charge, it will continue to be judged whether the real-time expansion force reaches the target value. By setting the target state of charge calibration interval, it is used to eliminate the interference of the extreme values ​​or inflection point values ​​of the expansion force corresponding to different states of charge in the correspondence between the expansion force at the cycle number within the target cycle number calibration interval of the battery. The target cycle number calibration interval mainly divides the range of cycle numbers according to the maximum value, so that within the same target cycle number calibration interval, the real-time expansion force at each cycle number corresponding to the standard state of charge reaches the maximum value.

[0070] In some embodiments, the target state of charge calibration interval is a first state of charge calibration interval, the extreme value is a maximum value, the target cycle number calibration interval includes a first cycle number calibration interval or a second cycle number calibration interval, and the first cycle number calibration interval and the second cycle number calibration interval constitute the full life cycle of the battery; obtaining the standard state of charge corresponding to the target state of charge calibration interval and the target cycle number calibration interval includes: obtaining the first standard state of charge corresponding to the first state of charge calibration interval and the first cycle number calibration interval; or, obtaining the second standard state of charge corresponding to the first state of charge calibration interval and the second cycle number calibration interval. Exemplarily, with reference to Figures 1 and 3, the first state of charge calibration interval is 0.2-0.5, the first cycle number calibration interval is 0-600 times, the first standard state of charge is 0.36, the first cycle number calibration interval is greater than 600 times (illustrated as 800 times in the figure), and the second standard state of charge is 0.34. It is understood that the values ​​of the above parameters can be calibrated through experiments, and the values ​​of the calibrated parameters may vary for different battery models. When the first differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time charge is determined to be equal to 0, that is, when dF / dQ = 0, if the current SOC is between 0.2-0.5 and the current number of cycles is less than or equal to 600, then, based on the pre-calibrated correspondence, 0.36 is directly used as the standard SOC to calibrate the current SOC. When the first differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time charge is determined to be equal to 0, that is, when dF / dQ = 0, if the current SOC is between 0.2-0.5 and the current number of cycles is greater than 600, then, based on the pre-calibrated correspondence, 0.34 is directly used as the standard SOC to calibrate the current SOC.

[0071] In some embodiments, the target SOC calibration interval is a second SOC calibration interval, the extreme value is a minimum value, and the target cycle count calibration interval is the entire life cycle of the battery. Obtaining the standard SOC corresponding to both the target SOC calibration interval and the target cycle count calibration interval includes obtaining a third standard SOC corresponding to both the second SOC calibration interval and the entire life cycle of the battery. For example, with continued reference to Figures 1 and 3, the second SOC calibration interval is 0.5-0.8, and the third standard SOC is 0.65. It is understood that the values ​​of the aforementioned parameters can be calibrated experimentally, and the values ​​of the calibrated parameters may vary for different battery models. When the first differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time charge is determined to be zero, i.e., dF / dQ = 0, if the current SOC is between 0.5-0.8, then, based on the pre-calibrated correspondence, 0.65 is directly used as the standard SOC to calibrate the current SOC.

[0072] In some embodiments, the target SOC calibration interval is a third SOC calibration interval, the target value is an inflection point value, and the target cycle count calibration interval is the full life cycle of the battery; obtaining the standard SOC corresponding to both the target SOC calibration interval and the target cycle count calibration interval includes obtaining a fourth standard SOC corresponding to both the third SOC calibration interval and the full life cycle of the battery. For example, with reference to Figures 1 and 4, the third SOC calibration interval is 0.4-0.6, and the third standard SOC is 0.48. It is understood that the values ​​of the above parameters can be calibrated experimentally, and the values ​​of the calibrated parameters may vary for different battery models. When it is determined that the second differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time charge is equal to 0, that is, when d^2F / dQ^2=0, if the current SOC is between 0.4-0.6, then, based on the pre-calibrated correspondence, 0.48 is directly used as the standard SOC to calibrate the current SOC.

[0073] S140: Calibrate the current state of charge to a standard state of charge.

[0074] In summary, the battery state of charge calibration method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure takes into account that in the correspondence between the expansion force and the state of charge under some or all cycle times of the battery, there are extreme values ​​of the expansion force corresponding to the same state of charge, and inflection point values ​​of the expansion force corresponding to the same state of charge. Therefore, the disclosed embodiment first obtains the current cycle number and real-time expansion force of the battery, and determines whether the real-time expansion force at the current cycle number has reached an extreme value or an inflection point. When it is determined that the real-time expansion force has reached an extreme value or an inflection point, the current state of charge of the battery is then obtained. Based on a comparison of the current state of charge with a calibration interval of the target state of charge, interference from inconsistent extreme values ​​or inflection points (i.e., in the correspondence between the expansion force and the state of charge at some or all cycle numbers of the battery, the extreme values ​​or inflection points of the expansion force correspond to different states of charge) is eliminated. Only when the current state of charge is within the calibration interval of the target state of charge, the target state of charge calibration interval and the standard state of charge corresponding to the target cycle number calibration interval within which the current cycle number falls are obtained. In other words, the same state of charge corresponding to the extreme value or inflection point of the expansion force in the correspondence between the expansion force and the state of charge at some or all cycle numbers of the battery is obtained. In this way, based on the expansion force of the battery, the corresponding standard state of charge can be quickly and accurately determined, so that the battery's state of charge can be accurately calibrated using the standard state of charge. There is no need to leave the battery stationary for a long time. The state of charge can be effectively calibrated when the battery pack is in a charging or discharging state, which is suitable for charging or discharging conditions.

[0075] Corresponding to the battery state of charge calibration method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a battery state of charge calibration device. FIG5 is a structural block diagram of the battery state of charge calibration device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG5 , the battery state of charge calibration device includes:

[0079] The state of charge calibration module 24 is configured to calibrate the current state of charge to a standard state of charge.

[0080] In some embodiments, the battery parameter acquisition module 21 is specifically configured to:

[0081] Get the current total charge capacity of the battery;

[0082] The ratio of the total charge capacity to the full charge capacity of the battery is rounded up to obtain the current cycle number.

[0083] In some embodiments, the system further includes a target value determination module for:

[0084] Get the real-time battery power;

[0085] When it is determined that the differential of the real-time expansion force with respect to the real-time charge is equal to 0 based on the differential function of the battery expansion force with respect to the charge at the current cycle number, it is determined that the real-time expansion force at the current cycle number reaches the target value.
