Description

The cell balance control method of battery pack and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to power battery technology field, particularly a kind of cell balance control method of battery pack and system.
Background technology
In the power battery pack be composed in series by multiple cell, cell there are differences in the fabrication process unavoidably, simultaneously in the use procedure of battery pack, the heat radiation of each cell and discharge and recharge etc. also there are differences, the terminal voltage which results between each cell is different, i.e. so-called cell energy imbalance.If do not carry out electric quantity balancing in time to unbalance battery pack, the terminal voltage difference between cell can be caused increasing, thus cause the deterioration of battery performance and the reduction in useful life, therefore the electric quantity balancing of cell be seemed particularly important.
In the electric quantity balancing technology of current cell, usually select the SOC(State of Charge of cell, state-of-charge) or terminal voltage as the foundation of electric quantity balancing.There is Nonlinear Mapping relation curve as shown in Figure 1 in the state-of-charge of the cell of lithium battery and terminal voltage.
When the differing greatly of other cell in the state-of-charge of certain cell or terminal voltage and battery pack, namely there is energy imbalance, electric quantity balancing must be carried out to this cell, it comprises two kinds of situations, when the state-of-charge of certain cell or terminal voltage are apparently higher than other cell, now need to discharge to reach new electric quantity balancing to this cell; When the state-of-charge of certain cell or terminal voltage are starkly lower than other cell, now need to charge to reach new electric quantity balancing to this cell.

Step S303: do not carry out cell balance control method.
Step S304: computing module 200 obtains the average terminal voltage of battery pack according to the terminal voltage of multiple cell, interval the first corresponding balance of predeterminated voltage obtaining average terminal voltage place from multiple continuous print predeterminated voltage interval opens threshold value, wherein, the balance unlatching threshold value of the predeterminated voltage interval correspondence of the both sides in multiple continuous print predeterminated voltage interval is greater than the predeterminated voltage interval corresponding balance unlatching threshold value of the centre in multiple continuous print predeterminated voltage interval, when the average terminal voltage of battery pack is in different phase respectively, open threshold value by balance table 1 Suo Shi to determine the need of carrying out electric quantity balancing.When the average terminal voltage of battery pack is in different phase respectively, opens threshold value by balance table 1 Suo Shi and determine the need of carrying out electric quantity balancing.
Step S305: the first cell obtaining the maximum absolute value of the difference of terminal voltage and average terminal voltage from multiple cell.
Step S306: the absolute value of the difference that judge module 400 is more maximum and first balances opens threshold value.If the absolute value of maximum difference is greater than the first balance open threshold value, then judges to need to carry out electric quantity balancing to the first cell, perform step S307, otherwise judge there is not the cell needing to carry out electric quantity balancing, perform step S308.
Step S307: balance module 500 is opened threshold value according to the first balance and carried out electric quantity balancing to needing the cell carrying out electric quantity balancing.
Concrete, after the nominal voltage lithium battery group that is 3.7V is started working, first gather the terminal voltage of each cell and calculate the average terminal voltage of battery pack, average terminal voltage as calculated is 3.1V, now 1 known by tabling look-up, average terminal voltage is the first balance unlatching threshold value of the battery pack of 3.1V is 0.2V, now calculate the absolute value of the terminal voltage of each cell and the difference of average voltage 3.1V, if the absolute value that there is the difference of a certain cell and average terminal voltage is greater than 0.2V, then need to carry out electric quantity balancing to cell, if the absolute value that there is the difference of the terminal voltage of multiple cell is all greater than 0.2V, that cell then choosing the maximum absolute value of difference carries out electric quantity balancing, if there is no the cell that the absolute value of difference is greater than 0.2V does not then carry out electric quantity balancing.
Here it should be noted that, as can be seen from Table 1, the interval corresponding balance of each predeterminated voltage is opened threshold value and from multiple continuous print predeterminated voltage interval, is positioned at the interval corresponding balance of the second middle predeterminated voltage opens threshold value and open threshold value to the interval corresponding balance of predeterminated voltage being positioned at the interval both sides of the second predeterminated voltage and become large gradually.
Step S308: stop needing the cell carrying out electric quantity balancing to carry out electric quantity balancing.After battery pack receives shutoff instruction, electric quantity balancing terminates, otherwise battery pack gets back to the cell that initial condition continues to select to need electric quantity balancing.
Balance module 500 is carrying out in the process of electric quantity balancing according to the first balance unlatching threshold value to needing the cell carrying out electric quantity balancing, stops needing the cell carrying out electric quantity balancing to carry out electric quantity balancing when meeting the following conditions:
