A power
distribution method for a redundant
electric drive system. The method comprises: on the basis of drive objectives on shafts and states and parameters of batteries and electric motors, determining constraint levels of the batteries, so as to set the maximum power of each
battery pack; calculating an optimal power configuration of each
battery pack, and on the basis of the optimal power configuration, setting a
power matrix, a disturbance term and a target
power vector; determining the constraint level of each
electric motor, and on the basis of the constraint level, adjusting the
power matrix and the disturbance term; on the basis of a full-rank condition for the
power matrix and a rationality condition for a power distribution ratio, determining whether a rational
power ratio can be obtained; if the conditions are not met, removing constraints layer by layer in ascending order until the conditions are met, otherwise, notifying an upper-layer controller or an upper-layer control module for
processing; and on the basis of the obtained
power ratio, calculating an output power of each
electric motor. The method provides a
general method for optimizing the power distribution of a redundant
electric drive system under constraint conditions of different levels, thereby simplifying design and development, shortening development cycles and reducing costs; and calculation costs are low, and the method can be implemented in a real-
time control system.
