When the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 meets the required output power, the efficiency is higher, and the high-efficiency working range is easier to maintain, so that the overall efficiency of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 is improved, the service life of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 can be prolonged, and the energy consumption is reduced. In addition, the output power of each fuel cell stack 112 is uniformly distributed and managed by the second-stage power manager 102, so that the integration level of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 is improved, and the overall volume of the system is reduced.
The fuel cell stack 112 is coupled to the DC/DC module and the second stage power manager 102 is coupled to the DC/DC module.

In other embodiments the power battery pack 113 is directly connected to the bus. In the present embodiment, the driving device 107 may be powered by direct current, or may be powered by converting the direct current into alternating current through an inverter.
Meanwhile, as shown in fig. 3, the present embodiment further provides an operating method of a multi-stack fuel cell system power management integrated device, which includes a working method formulation process 301 and a working method implementation process 302.
The working method formulation process 301 sequentially comprises the following steps:
determining a power management mode according to an application scene and the requirement of an operator;
the first-stage power manager 101 sets the output power of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the output power of the power cell system 106 according to the power management mode and the current power demand value;
the second level power manager 102 determines an optimal power allocation scheme under a split scheme and a power management mode; the optimal power allocation scheme includes setting the required output power of each fuel cell stack 112;
comparing the optimal power distribution results of all the pile dividing schemes to obtain an optimal pile dividing scheme and an optimal power distribution scheme under a set power management mode;
solving the optimal power distribution schemes under all the power management modes to obtain the optimal power distribution schemes under all the power management modes, and inputting the obtained optimal power distribution schemes under all the power management modes into a power distribution table;
the implementation process 302 of the working method comprises the following steps:
in actual operation, the first-stage power manager 101 sets the output power of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the output power of the power cell system 106 according to the currently set power management mode and the current power value required by the load 109 and by looking up a power distribution table;
the second stage power manager 102 sets the output power to be outputted for each fuel cell stack 112 by looking up a power distribution table based on the currently set power management mode and the output power to be outputted for the multi-stack fuel cell system 105.
The working method realizes the optimal distribution of the power required by the load, optimizes the working method of the multi-pile fuel cell system 105, and ensures that the multi-pile fuel cell system 105 can be maintained in a high-efficiency working interval, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the multi-pile fuel cell system 105, prolonging the service life of the multi-pile fuel cell system, reducing the cost and improving the performance.
The first-stage power manager 101 adjusts the output power to be output from the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the output power to be output from the power cell system 106 according to the SOC, i.e., the state of charge, of the power cell system 106. If the SOC is less than a threshold, the required output power of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 is increased. The multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the power cell system 106 can supply power to the drive 107 separately or simultaneously to the drive 107, or the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 can supply power to the drive 107 and simultaneously charge the power cell system 106. Specifically, when the remaining charge of the power battery system 106 is less than the set threshold, the first-stage power manager 101 allocates the required output power to the multi-stack fuel cell system 105, which is greater than the required power of the load 109, and at this time, the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 not only provides the electric energy for the driving device 107, but also charges the power battery; and the output power value of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 minus the charging power value of the power cell system 106 is equal to the power value required by the driving device 107.
In the present embodiment, when the driving device power manager 104 controls the driving device 107 to drive the load 109, the output power of the driving device 107 can be controlled. Upon braking the load 109, the drive power manager 104 can control the drive 107 to recover energy from the load 109.
In the working method of this embodiment, the required power of the load 109 in the application scenario is determined according to the application scenario and the parameter of the load 109, and the first-stage power manager 101 optimally distributes the required power of the load 109 to the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the power cell system 106 for output according to the current required power, the historical output power, the current required power change rate, and the power management mode of the load 109; the second-stage power manager 102 optimally allocates the output power of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 to each fuel cell stack 112 for output according to the characteristics of efficiency, lifetime, and the like of each fuel cell stack 112 and different power management modes. According to the operating state and mode requirements of the load 109, the multi-stack fuel cell system power management integrated device has a plurality of different power management modes, the optimal power distribution method under all possible working condition points is optimized in each power management mode through a method for establishing an optimization model, and the optimization result is directly called when the system operates in real time, so that the operating complexity of the power management integrated device is reduced, and the device integration level is improved.
In the working method of the embodiment, the first-stage power manager 101 determines the power required by the driving device 107 according to the running state requirement of the load 109 at the current moment in the application scene, and the driving device power manager 104 controls the actual output state and the power change rate of the driving device 107. The power battery power manager 103 determines the limit values for charging and discharging the power battery system 106 and controls the charging and discharging state of the power battery system 106 at the present moment.
In this embodiment, the first-stage power manager 101 and the second-stage power manager 102 respectively have a plurality of different power management modes according to different operation modes of the load 109, and the power management modes can be automatically switched when the load 109 operates at different stages and different operation states, including a start-up stage, a normal operation stage, a shutdown stage, and the like. Additionally, the load 109 operating modes include: an economy mode, a high electrical efficiency mode, a high thermal efficiency mode, a long life mode, a high performance mode, and the like. The optimal power distribution schemes of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the power cell system 106 of different operating states (required power at the current moment, historical output power, required power change rate at the current moment) of each operating point in different operating modes can be optimized through a mathematical optimization model.
The multi-stack fuel cell system power management integrated device 114 in this embodiment is integrated in the multi-stack fuel cell system 105, and there is no need to provide a separate power management device for each fuel cell stack 112, thereby effectively reducing the volume of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105.
In this embodiment, the driving device 107 is connected to the load 109 through the reducer 108, and the driving device 107 drives the load 109 to operate through the reducer 108. The power battery system 106 includes a plurality of power battery packs 113. The power battery power manager 103 is specifically configured to manage the input power and output power of the entire power battery pack 113. The second stage power manager 102 is used to determine the power requirements of all of the fuel cell stacks 112 of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105.
In this embodiment, the power battery power manager 103 controls the power input and output of the power battery pack 113, the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 serves as a main power source to provide power for the load 109, and the power battery system 106 is used to achieve system power balance, so that the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 should operate in a high efficiency region as much as possible under the condition of meeting the requirement of power performance, thereby improving the efficiency of the system. Therefore, in this embodiment, the control target of the power battery power manager 103 is to keep the SOC of the power battery pack 113 within a certain range all the time, and limit the charging and discharging power of the power battery pack 113 within a reasonable range, so as to ensure that the power battery pack 113 is not overcharged and overdischarged, and reserve a charging space for regenerative braking. When the SOC values of the power battery packs 113 are in different ranges, the corresponding first-stage power managers 101 have different power management methods, and when the power is lower than the set range, the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 charges the power battery system 106 while supplying power to the load 109. The SOC setting range can be flexibly set by those skilled in the art according to the actual application scenario.
The load 109 typically has multiple operating modes, depending on the needs of the operator, with the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 having different power management modes in different operating modes. The operation modes generally include an economy mode, a normal mode, and a performance mode, and power management with thermal efficiency as an optimization target is also required when the load 109 is started or in standby in a cold environment.
In the working method in this embodiment, the load 109 is subjected to power parameter matching according to the working condition data of the load 109 in the application scene, so that the required power of the load 109 corresponding to each working condition point can be obtained, all possibilities of the required power of the load 109 in the application scene can be found as long as the working condition data are sufficient, in the actual work of the load 109, the required power of the load 109 can be obtained according to the relation between the previously measured working condition point and the required power of the load 109, and then the magnitude of the required output power distributed to the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the power cell system 106 by the first-stage power manager 101 can be determined by adopting a relevant optimization algorithm such as, but not limited to, a sliding average filtering method, a Savitzky-Golay convolution smoothing algorithm, an losss, an FFT filter method, a percentile filter and the like. For example, the first stage power manager 101 uses a moving average filtering method to distribute the required output power of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the power cell system 106, and is mainly used for reducing the fluctuation of the MFCS power demand. The power (P) to be output of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 at a certain timeMFCS(t)) is defined as:

wherein, Pe(t) real-time power of vehicleDemand, in kW; n is the window size, where N is 4; k is a scaling factor, where k is 0.7; pMFCS(t) is the real-time desired output power of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105.

The optimal fuel cell stack output power distribution method needs to establish a mathematical optimization model under each target, obtain an optimal multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and output power distribution relation of each fuel cell stack 112 by combining characteristics of the fuel cell stacks 112, and distribute the output power of each fuel cell stack 112 according to a power distribution scheme under each power management mode in the actual working process of the load 109. For example, in the economic mode, the second-stage power manager 102 uses the full life cycle cost as an optimization index, and uses the efficiency characteristic and the life characteristic of each fuel cell stack 112 as constraint conditions, and equates the efficiency of each fuel cell stack 112 to the use cost of hydrogen, equates the life of each fuel cell stack 112 to the break-and-damage cost of the stack, and establishes a mathematical model to distribute the required power of each fuel cell stack 112, where the mathematical model is:

As shown in fig. 3, the operation method of the multi-stack fuel cell system power management integrated device in the present embodiment mainly includes: a working method formulation process 301 and a working method implementation process 302. Firstly, the required power of the load 109 in the application scene is determined according to the parameters of the load 109 and the description of the application scene, a mathematical statistical rule of the required power of the load 109 in the application scene is obtained, and an operator determines a power management mode according to the working content and the requirement of the operation mode of the load 109.
After the power management mode is determined, a mathematical model needs to be established to optimize the power distribution schemes of all power points in all power management modes. Taking the high-efficiency operation mode as an example, at this time, the high efficiency operation of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 is taken as a target of power management, and objective conditions such as different operating states of the load 109 (current time required power, historical output power and current time power demand change rate), efficiency characteristics, number and power output range of the fuel cell stack 112 are taken as constraints to optimize an optimal power output scheme under a certain stacking scheme. The optimized result is the power optimized distribution result under the current power management mode and the maximum power distribution scheme of the fuel cell stack 112. By using the current power optimization distribution result and the required power distribution of the load 109 in the application scenario, the average efficiency of a certain stacking scheme in the high-efficiency working mode in the current application scenario can be obtained, and then the average efficiency is solved for all possible stacking schemes, so that the optimal stacking scheme in the current application scenario can be obtained. By combining with multiple power management modes, the optimal stack division scheme of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 and the power distribution scheme under each power management mode are obtained through comprehensive comparison, and the power distribution scheme can be obtained through table lookup according to the output power of the multi-stack fuel cell system 105 in the operation process of the load 109. Therefore, the computing power requirement of the power management integrated device is reduced, and the integration level of the device is improved.
It can be understood that the optimal stacking scheme and the optimal power allocation scheme in each power management mode in this embodiment are obtained by optimizing for a certain application scenario, and are only applicable to the power management method in the application scenario. When the application scenario changes, the result is no longer applicable, and the power management method in the current application scenario needs to be determined again according to the working method in this embodiment.
In conclusion, the present invention effectively overcomes various disadvantages of the prior art and has high industrial utilization value.
