[0046] The following specific embodiments are used to explain the technical solutions of the claims of the present application, so that those skilled in the art can understand the claims of the present application. The protection scope of the present application is not limited to the following specific embodiments. Those skilled in the art who make the technical solutions of the claims of the present application different from the following specific embodiments are also within the protection scope of the present application.

[0047] Technical solution 1

[0048] An energy recovery control method:

[0049] Step 1, define the brake pedal control interval;

[0050] In order to solve the seamless connection and smooth transition between coasting energy recovery and braking energy recovery, the brake pedal opening is divided into two intervals, and different torque controls are performed in different intervals, as shown in Figure 2; adaptive interval: define the interval of brake pedal opening from 0 to brake pedal opening threshold P1 (set to 18% in this technical solution, which can be calibrated), i.e. interval A as shown in Figure 2, in this adaptive interval, the expected total braking torque is a relatively stable value, and the maximum boundary of the expected total braking torque is limited, and the expected total braking torque is usually equal to the current coasting energy recovery torque under normal conditions, i.e. when the power system is not limited and the control system is not limited; braking interval: define the interval of brake pedal opening greater than the threshold P1 as interval B, i.e. interval B as shown in Figure 2, in this interval, the brake torque value increases with the increase of brake pedal opening.

[0051] Step 2, define the ideal expected deceleration corresponding to the brake pedal opening;

[0052] Usually, new energy vehicles are designed with three strength coasting energy recovery modes: weak, medium and strong. The technical solution of the present application keeps the braking energy recovery level consistent with the coasting energy recovery mode, i.e. the braking energy recovery levels: weak, medium and strong correspond one by one to the weak, medium and strong of the coasting energy recovery mode. In this way, when the user selects different coasting energy recovery modes, there is a corresponding braking energy recovery level, and the energy recovery from coasting energy recovery seamlessly transitions to braking energy recovery, and the electric brake torque smoothly transitions, improving the driving feeling and improving energy efficiency.

[0053] When the brake pedal opening is in the adaptive interval, since this section is consistent with coasting, there is usually an energy recovery level (such as weak, medium and strong, which usually corresponds one by one to the coasting energy recovery mode) set when coasting energy recovery, so the braking strength in the adaptive interval is also consistent with the energy recovery level set by the user; in the transition interval, the brake pedal opening of each braking strength coincides with the deceleration curve, so that the braking feeling and deceleration in the braking process are consistent with the driver's expectation, and the braking and safety requirements can be guaranteed.

[0054] According to the brake pedal opening degree, the expected deceleration is set, and the value and relationship diagram of the brake pedal opening degree and the expected deceleration are shown in Table 1 and Figure 3 respectively: that is, when the brake pedal opening degree is 0, the expected deceleration is equal to the expected deceleration when the vehicle is sliding; when the brake pedal opening degree is less than the set threshold P1, the expected deceleration increases with the increase of the brake intensity and the increase of the brake pedal opening degree; when the brake pedal opening degree is greater than or equal to the set threshold P1, the expected deceleration only increases with the increase of the brake pedal opening degree.

[0055] Table 1: Expected deceleration table

[0056]

[0057] Step 3, brake torque calculation;

[0058] When the automobile is decelerating, the total deceleration force of the automobile is composed of the rolling resistance F f , the wind resistance F w , the slope resistance F i , and the brake resistance F j . In a vehicle with energy recovery, the brake resistance F j includes the electric brake recovery force and the mechanical brake force.

[0059] The total resistance of the vehicle is F=m×a, m is the mass of the vehicle, and a is the expected deceleration of the vehicle;

[0060] The total resistance F=F f +F w +F i +F j

[0061] Wherein, the rolling resistance F f =G×f×cosα, G is the vehicle weight, f is the rolling resistance coefficient, and α is the slope;

[0062] The wind resistance F w =(CD×A×V 2 ) / 21.15, CD is the air resistance coefficient, A is the windward area, and V is the vehicle speed;

[0063] The slope resistance F i =G×sinα, G is the vehicle weight, and α is the slope;

[0064] The expected brake resistance F j =F-(F f +F w +F i )=m×a-G×f×cosα-(CD×A×V 2) / 21.15-Gxsin a

[0065] According to the desired braking resistance F j And the wheel radius r, the desired total braking torque Mb can be calculated:

[0066] Mb=F j x r=[mxa-Gxfxcos a-(CDxAxV 2 ) / 21.15-Gxsin a]x r

[0067] m is the vehicle mass;

[0068] a is the desired deceleration of the vehicle, obtained by looking up Table 1;

[0069] Step 4, dynamic control of the desired total braking torque;

[0070] According to the brake pedal opening, three modes are defined: coasting mode, adaptive mode, and braking mode, wherein the brake pedal opening equal to 0 is defined as the coasting mode; the brake pedal opening in the interval (0, P1] is defined as the adaptive mode, and the brake pedal opening greater than P1 is defined as the braking mode. In the three modes, the coasting torque calculation, adaptive torque calculation, and braking torque calculation are respectively performed.

[0071] 1. Coasting energy recovery torque calculation in the coasting mode;

[0072] In the coasting mode, the desired electric braking torque is equal to the coasting energy recovery torque, and the desired electric braking torque obtained according to the energy recovery level, the set coasting deceleration, the vehicle speed, and the motor speed is the coasting energy recovery torque in the coasting mode. Since the coasting energy recovery torque is related to the vehicle state such as the vehicle speed, the power system state (such as the power battery SOC, the battery allowable charging power, etc.), the value also changes with the vehicle state, and thus the desired electric braking torque when the brake pedal opening is 0% is also dynamically changed. At this time, the desired mechanical braking torque is equal to 0. The set coasting deceleration is the desired deceleration determined according to the brake pedal opening and the braking intensity shown in Table 1. In control, the desired deceleration when coasting is equal to the desired deceleration in the adaptive interval, so that the deceleration is the same when coasting and braking are transitioned, the desired total braking torque is the same, and then seamless docking is achieved, so that the vehicle will not suddenly accelerate or decelerate due to different torques, and the coasting energy recovery torque is equal to the desired total braking torque Mb.

[0073] When transitioning from the adaptive mode to the coasting mode, the desired electric braking torque is equal to the smaller value of the electric braking torque when exiting the adaptive mode and the coasting energy recovery torque in the current coasting mode;

[0074] 2. Adaptive torque calculation in the adaptive mode;

[0075] 1)When the vehicle is coasting and the coasting energy recovery torque is not limited, the brake energy recovery torque (here also referred to as the desired electric brake torque) in the adaptive mode is equal to the coasting energy recovery torque before entering the adaptive mode, and the desired mechanical brake torque is 0. The limiting factors of the coasting energy recovery torque include: motor or battery system capability limitation or failure; the battery power such as SOC is higher than a set value, and energy recovery is not performed, which is a scenario in which the coasting energy recovery torque is limited, and the battery power is lower than the set value, and energy recovery is performed, which is a scenario in which the coasting energy recovery torque is not limited;

[0076] 2)When the vehicle is coasting and the coasting energy recovery torque is limited or the electric brake torque in the adaptive range does not meet the desired deceleration, the electric brake process at this time cannot provide sufficient electric brake torque, and the vehicle needs to provide additional mechanical brake torque to supplement the torque insufficient due to the limited coasting energy recovery torque. The desired mechanical brake torque at this time is equal to the desired total brake torque Mb minus the actual electric brake torque that can be provided, and the actual electric brake torque that can be provided is calculated according to the power system limitation (including motor state limitation, battery state limitation) torque.

[0077] When the vehicle changes from the adaptive range to the brake range, the mechanical brake torque is smoothly increased from 0 to the calculated desired mechanical brake torque (the desired total brake torque Mb minus the actual electric brake torque that can be provided) at a set slope K in the initial stage of the adaptive range. When the vehicle changes from the brake range to the adaptive range, the actual mechanical brake torque is smoothly decreased from the desired mechanical brake torque to 0 at a set slope K in the initial stage of the adaptive range, as shown in FIG. 4.

[0078] K= (T0-T1) / P1

[0079] T0 is the total brake torque in an ideal case, that is, the desired total brake torque Mb calculated according to the desired deceleration in the case where the power system is not limited and the vehicle control system does not limit.

[0080] T1 is the actual electric brake torque that can be provided calculated in the case where the power system is limited or the vehicle control system limits energy recovery under the current state of the vehicle.

[0081] The technical effect of the above technical steps is that the change of the mechanical brake torque at a certain slope K can avoid uneven change of the brake torque, thereby causing poor brake comfort.

[0082] 3. Mechanical brake torque calculation in brake mode;

[0083] In this mode, the principle of electric braking priority is adopted, and the maximum electric braking force is recovered. The maximum electric braking torque (the maximum power allowed by the power system / current motor speed) is calculated through the vehicle state (including the battery SOC, the maximum allowed charging power of the battery, and the motor speed). The desired mechanical braking torque is equal to the desired total braking torque Mb minus the maximum electric braking torque.

[0084] 4. Torque control;

[0085] The motor and the mechanical braking system are controlled according to the desired electric braking torque and the desired mechanical braking torque, respectively, to achieve the braking demand. The above adjustment of the electric braking torque and the mechanical braking torque is used to keep the braking torque consistent at the same vehicle speed, to meet the braking intention, and to maximize the energy recovery, improve the economy and comfort.
