The invention discloses an
automatic control method and device for a
thermal management system of an
electric vehicle, relates to the field of
intelligent control, and realizes multi-step prediction of battery and motor heat production and
thermal load change in the future by fusing external information such as a
navigation path and weather forecast, plans a thermal
management strategy in advance, and improves the response perspectiveness of the
system. A multi-source disturbance dynamic structured correlation
equalization technology is adopted, the
coupling relation between heat sources is modeled, cross disturbance is compensated through a joint
state function, and multi-heat-loop cooperative control is achieved. On the basis of a
model predictive control (MPC) framework, temperature tracking errors and
energy consumption penalty are optimized, the
energy consumption of actuators such as a compressor and a water pump is reduced while a safe temperature interval is met, and the endurance is prolonged. And in combination with a state estimator fusion model and
observation data, the control precision and robustness under a complex working condition are enhanced, and finally
global optimal thermal management considering the service life of parts, the comfort of passengers and the energy efficiency is realized.
