Description

전기자동차의 공조 소모 전력 제어장치 및 방법Air Conditioning Power Consumption Control System and Method for Electric Vehicles
본 발명은 전기자동차용 자동 온도조절 장치에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 캔 시스템(controller area network system)을 기반으로 차량내 전력을 소모하는 유닛(unit)들의 전력 소모량을 지속적으로 모니터링(monitoring)하여 차량의 전력 상태를 판단하고, 차량의 전력 상태에 따라 공조 시스템의 소모 전력을 제어함으로서, 전기로 구동하는 자동차, 순수 전기자동차 또는 온라인 전기자동차(online electric vehicle)에서 최적의 차량 실내 환경을 구현하고 주행거리를 확보할 수 있도록 하는 캔 시스템이 적용되는 전기자동차용 공조 소모 전력 제어장치 및 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a thermostat for an electric vehicle, and more particularly, to continuously monitor the power consumption of units consuming power in a vehicle based on a controller area network system. By determining the power state of the vehicle and controlling the power consumption of the air conditioning system according to the power state of the vehicle, the optimal indoor environment is realized in an electric vehicle, a pure electric vehicle or an online electric vehicle. The present invention relates to an air conditioning power control device and method for an electric vehicle to which a can system is applied to secure a mileage.
일반적으로, 전기자동차는 화석연료를 사용하는 내연기관 자동차와는 달리, 대용량 배터리를 장착하여 전기에너지를 동력으로 사용하는 자동차로 환경오염을 일으키는 매연을 전혀 발생시키지 않아 미래형 자동차로 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다.In general, unlike an internal combustion engine vehicle that uses fossil fuels, electric vehicles are electric vehicles powered by large-capacity batteries, so they do not generate any smoke that causes environmental pollution. have.
그러나, 이러한 전기자동차는 내연기관 차량과 달리 배터리(battery)를 충전하는 많은 시간이 소요되며, 충전을 할 수 있는 충전소 등의 인프라(infra)가 아직 거의 갖추어져 있지 않아 배터리에 충전된 전력만을 이용하여 주행해야하는 경우가 많아 차량의 다양한 전력 소모 장치를 운영하는데 어려움이 있다.However, unlike an internal combustion engine vehicle, such an electric vehicle takes a lot of time to charge a battery, and since there is almost no infrastructure such as a charging station that can be charged, only the electric power charged in the battery is used. In many cases, it is difficult to operate various power consumption devices of a vehicle.
즉, 차량에는 차량을 주행시키기 위해 모터 등의 구동에 사용되는 전력외에도 차량의 외부 온도에 따라 냉방 또는 난방을 실행하여 차량의 실내 환경을 사용자가 쾌적함을 느낄 수 있는 온도로 유지시키는 공조 시스템(HVAC)의 동작을 위한 전력이 필요하다.That is, an air conditioning system (HVAC) that maintains the indoor environment of the vehicle at a temperature at which the user can feel comfortable by performing cooling or heating according to the external temperature of the vehicle in addition to the power used to drive the motor to drive the vehicle. Power is required for the operation.
이러한, 공조 시스템의 가동은 전기자동차의 주행거리를 30% 정도 감소시키 등 차량의 주요 성능을 현저하게 낮추는 요인이 되므로, 제한된 배터리 전력만을 사용할 수 있는 전기자동차에서 공조 시스템의 효율적인 사용이 매우 중요하다.Since the operation of the air conditioning system significantly reduces the main performance of the vehicle by reducing the mileage of the electric vehicle by 30%, the efficient use of the air conditioning system is very important in an electric vehicle that can use only limited battery power. .
위와 같은 문제점으로 인해 현재는 냉방 또는 난방 모듈이 없는 차량을 판매하거나, 냉방 또는 난방을 주모터와 다른 연료(가솔린, 경유)를 사용하여 동작시키는 등의 전기자동차가 제안되기도 하였으나, 이는 전기자동차에서 공조시스템의 효율적인 구동을 위한 근본적인 해결책은 되지 못하고 있다.Due to the above problems, electric vehicles such as selling vehicles without cooling or heating modules or operating cooling or heating using main motors and other fuels (gasoline, diesel) have been proposed. There is no fundamental solution for the efficient operation of air conditioning systems.
한편, 자동차는 주행조건(급가속, 주행 시작, 차량 속도, 경사로 주행)이나, 기후 및 환경에 따라서 차량의 실내를 쾌적한 환경으로 유지시켜 주기 위한 자동 온도 조절장치(FATC: Full Automatic Temperature Control)가 구비되어 있고, 이러한 자동온도 조절장치는 차량의 냉난방을 위하여 에어컨, 히터와 연결되어 있다. On the other hand, the vehicle has a Full Automatic Temperature Control (FATC) to keep the interior of the vehicle in a comfortable environment according to the driving conditions (rapid acceleration, driving start, vehicle speed, driving on the slope) or the climate and environment. The thermostat is connected to an air conditioner and a heater for heating and cooling the vehicle.
여기서, 차량의 자동 온도 조절 장치는 센서의 흡기구를 통하여 흡입된 차량의 실내 공기 온도를 감지하는 내부 온도 센서(Incar Sensor)과 외부 온도를 감지하는 외부 온도 센서(Ambient Sensor), 전면 유리를 통하여 실내로 유입되는 일사량을 검출하는 일사 센서가 FATC 제어기에 연결되어 냉방 또는 난방 요구량을 판단하기 위한 정보를 수집한다. Here, the thermostat of the vehicle is an interior temperature sensor (Incar Sensor) for detecting the indoor air temperature of the vehicle sucked through the inlet of the sensor, an ambient temperature sensor (Ambient Sensor) for sensing the outside temperature, the interior through the windshield The solar sensor which detects the amount of inflow into the solar cell is connected to the FATC controller to collect information for determining the cooling or heating demand.
또한, 차량의 자동 온도 조절 장치는 차량의 실내 냉난방을 위한 에어컨(air conditioner) 및 히터(heater) 등의 공조장치와 연결되며, 이러한 에어컨 및 히터 등은 운전자의 스위치 작동 및 조작에 의해 내기 또는 외기 통풍 경로를 조절 하거나, 에어컨의 압축기를 가동함으로서 제어한다. In addition, the thermostat of the vehicle is connected to an air conditioner (air conditioner) and a heater (air heater) for the indoor air-conditioning of the vehicle, such an air conditioner and heater, such as the bet or the outside air by the switch operation and operation of the driver Control by adjusting the ventilation path or running the compressor of the air conditioner.

In the heat pump system that heats the air conditioner and the air conditioner cycle in reverse, 70 to 80% of the power is consumed by the motor and fan of the compressor. % Is consumed in condenser fans, blower motors, etc. Therefore, in order to effectively control the power consumption of the air conditioning system, it is important to control the use of the compressor.

이하, 도 1을 참조하여, 공조 시스템에 대한 효율적인 소모 전력 제어를 수행하기 위한 전기자동차의 각 구성요소의 동작을 상세히 설명하기로 한다.Hereinafter, with reference to Figure 1, the operation of each component of the electric vehicle for performing the efficient power consumption control for the air conditioning system will be described in detail.
먼저, 모터부(motor)(106)는 제어부(vehicle control unit)(100)의 제어에 따라 차량의 주행을 위해 구비되는 다수의 모터의 구동을 제어한다. 온도센서(temperature sensor)(104)는 차량의 내부 또는 외부의 온도를 측정한다.First, the motor 106 controls the driving of a plurality of motors provided for driving the vehicle under the control of the vehicle control unit 100. The temperature sensor 104 measures the temperature inside or outside the vehicle.
에너지 공급부(120)는 차량의 주행 및 공조 시스템의 가동을 위한 동력을 제공하는 장치로 배터리(battery)(112), 슈퍼 캐패시터(super device)(114), 집전장치(pick up device)(110) 등을 포함한다.The energy supply unit 120 is a device for providing power for driving a vehicle and operating an air conditioning system, and includes a battery 112, a super capacitor 114, and a pick up device 110. And the like.
배터리(112)는 제어부(100)의 제어에 따라 온라인 전기자동차의 동력을 제공하는 에너지원(energy source)으로 전기에너지(electric energy)를 충전하고 있다가 차량의 시동이 온되는 경우 차량의 각종 장치의 구동을 위해 전기에너지를 제공하며, 온라인 전기자동차가 도로에 설치된 급전 인프라로부터 전력을 공급받아 주행하는 경우 충전을 수행하고, 온라인 전기자동차가 급전 인프라가 없는 곳을 주행하는 경우 충전된 에너지를 동력으로 공급한다.The battery 112 charges electric energy with an energy source that provides power of an on-line electric vehicle under the control of the controller 100, and various devices of the vehicle when the vehicle is turned on. It provides electric energy to drive the vehicle, and performs charging when the online electric vehicle is driven by a power supply infrastructure installed on the road, and charges the charged energy when the online electric vehicle travels where there is no power supply infrastructure. To supply.
슈퍼 캐패시터(super capacitor)(114)는 온라인 전기자동차가 도로에 설치된 급전 인프라로부터 전력을 공급받아 주행하는 경우 전기 에너지를 충전하고, 차량의 동작 전원 필요 시 충전된 전기에너지를 동력으로 제공한다. The super capacitor 114 charges electric energy when the on-line electric vehicle is supplied with power from a power supply infrastructure installed on a road, and provides charged electric energy as power when the operating power of the vehicle is required.
공조부(108)는 제어부(100)의 제어에 따라 차량의 냉방 또는 난방을 수행하는 히터(heater) 또는 에이콘(air conditioner) 등의 공조장치의 동작을 제어한다. 이때, 공조부(108)는 동작 전원을 인가받아 히터 또는 에이콘의 동작을 위한 콘덴서(condensor), 압축기팬(compressor fan), 압축기 모터(compressor motor) 등의 장치를 구동시켜 차량에 대한 냉방 또는 난방을 수행하게 된다. 집전장치(pick up deivce)(110)는 온라인 전기자동차의 주행 시 전력을 집전한다.The air conditioner 108 controls the operation of an air conditioner such as a heater or an air conditioner for cooling or heating the vehicle under the control of the controller 100. At this time, the air conditioning unit 108 is supplied with operating power to drive a device such as a condenser (condensor), a compressor fan (compressor fan), a compressor motor (compressor motor) for the operation of the heater or acorn for cooling or heating the vehicle Will be performed. A current collector (pick up deivce) 110 collects electric power when the on-line electric vehicle runs.
한편, 차량의 전력 상태를 판단하기 위해 실시간으로 소비되는 전력과 공급되는 전력, 저장되어 있는 전력을 판단할 필요가 있으므로, 위 설명한 각 구성요소는 전력과 관련된 정보를 공통 CAN 라인(line)을 통해 제어부(100)와 공유할 수 있도록 한다. 이때, 공조 시스템의 각 장치가 CAN 라인에 연결될 필요는 없으며, 공조 시스템 제어기인 공조부(108)가 CAN에 연결되어 공통 CAN 라인에서 정보를 공유할 수 있도록 하며, 하위 시스템(블로워 모터, 압축기, 증발기 팬, 내기 센서 등)과는 내부 통신 & 아날로그 신호등으로 정보를 교환하고 제어를 할 수 있다. On the other hand, in order to determine the power state of the vehicle, it is necessary to determine the power consumed, the supplied power, and the stored power in real time, and thus, each component described above provides power-related information through a common CAN line. It can be shared with the control unit 100. At this time, each device of the air conditioning system does not need to be connected to the CAN line, and the air conditioning unit 108, which is an air conditioning system controller, is connected to the CAN to share information in a common CAN line, and a subsystem (blower motor, compressor, It can exchange information and control with internal communication & analog signal with evaporator fan, bet sensor, etc.).
제어부(100)는 모터부(106), 배터리(112), 공조부(108) 등과 CAN 통신으로 연결되며, 메모리부(102)에 저장된 온라인 전기자동차의 동작 프로그램에 따라 온라인 전기자동차의 전반적인 동작 제어를 수행한다. The controller 100 is connected to the motor unit 106, the battery 112, the air conditioning unit 108, and the like by CAN communication, and controls overall operation of the online electric vehicle according to the operation program of the online electric vehicle stored in the memory unit 102. Perform
또한, 제어부(100)는 본 발명의 실시 예에 따라 차량내 전력을 소모하는 장치인 모터부(106), 공조부(108) 등에서와 소모 전력을 모니터링(monitoring)하고, 전력 소모 장치에서 소모되는 전체 소모 전력이 차량내 집전장치(110), 배터리(112), 슈퍼 캐패시터(114) 등에서 제공한 가능한 공급 가능 전력량과 비교하여 차량에서 가용한 전력 공급 여유도를 계산한다. 이때, 전력 공급 여유도라 함은 차량에서 공급 가능한 전력량에서 전제 소모 전력량을 뺀 값으로, 차량에서 전력 소모 장치를 동작시키는데 중요한 판단값이 된다.In addition, the controller 100 monitors the power consumption of the motor unit 106, the air conditioning unit 108, and the like, which is a device that consumes power in the vehicle, according to an embodiment of the present invention. The total power consumption is calculated by comparing the amount of power supply available in the vehicle with the amount of power available in the vehicle current collector 110, the battery 112, the supercapacitor 114, and the like. In this case, the power supply margin is a value obtained by subtracting the total power consumption from the amount of power available from the vehicle, and is an important determination value for operating the power consumption device in the vehicle.
즉, 제어부(100)는 차량내 냉방 또는 난방 등의 공조 시스템의 가동이 필요하게 되는 경우, 위와 같이 산출된 전력 공급 여유도를 검사하여 공조 시스템을 사용자가 쾌적함을 느낄 수 있는 기설정된 최적 조건으로 가동시킬 것인지 또는 공조 소모 전력에 대한 제어를 수행할 것인지 여부를 결정하게 된다.That is, when the control unit 100 needs to operate an air conditioning system such as cooling or heating in a vehicle, the control unit 100 checks the power supply margin calculated as described above, and sets the air conditioning system to a predetermined optimal condition for the user to feel comfortable. It is decided whether to operate or to control the air conditioning power consumption.
이때, 제어부(100)는 전력 공급 여유도가 기설정된 기준값 이하로 낮게 검사되어, 공조 시스템에 대한 소모 전력 제어가 필요한 것으로 판단하는 경우, 전력 공급 여유도가 낮을수록 공조부(108)에서 냉방 또는 난방을 수행하는데 구동되는 압축기의 회전수를 단계적으로 낮게 제어하여 공조부(108)에 대한 소모 전력 제어를 수행하게 된다.At this time, when the control unit 100 determines that the power supply margin is lower than the predetermined reference value, and determines that power consumption control for the air conditioning system is required, the air conditioning unit 108 cools or cools the lower the power supply margin. By controlling the rotation speed of the compressor driven to perform the heating step by step to perform the power consumption control for the air conditioning unit (108).
도 2는 본 발명의 실시 예에 따라 전기자동차에서 효율적으로 공조 시스템의 소모 전력을 제어하기 위한 동작 제어 흐름을 도시한 것이다. 이하, 도 1 및 도 2를 참조하여 본 발명의 실시 예를 상세히 설명하기로 한다.2 illustrates an operation control flow for efficiently controlling power consumption of an air conditioning system in an electric vehicle according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
먼저, 캔 시스템(Controller Area network system)을 기반으로 차량의 전력 상태에 따라 냉방 장치 또는 난방 장치 등의 공조 시스템의 소모 전력을 제어하기 위해서는 우선적으로 차량의 전력 상태 및 냉난방 상태를 판단해야 한다. First, in order to control power consumption of an air conditioning system such as a cooling device or a heating device based on a power state of a vehicle based on a can area (Controller Area network system), it is necessary to first determine a power state and a cooling / heating state of the vehicle.
이를 위해, 제어부(100)는 차량의 시동이 온(on)되는 경우 차량에서 전력을 소모하는 모든 장치에 의해서 소모되는 전력을 검사하여 차량의 전력 상태를 모니터링(monitoring) 한다(S200).To this end, the controller 100 monitors the power state of the vehicle by checking the power consumed by all the devices consuming power in the vehicle when the vehicle is started (S200).
이때, 전력 상태를 판단하는 정보는 공통 CAN 라인에서 얻을 수 있기 때문에 각 구성 요소의 컨트롤러(controller)(예: 공조 시스템 제어기)가 각자 계산할 수도 있고, 제어부(100)에서 차량 전체의 전력 상태를 평가할 수 있으며, 계산 주체보다는 전력 상태를 판단하는 기본 동작이 이루어져야 한다는 것이 중요하다. In this case, since information for determining the power state may be obtained from a common CAN line, a controller (for example, an air conditioning system controller) of each component may calculate the power state of the entire vehicle, and the controller 100 may evaluate the power state of the entire vehicle. It is important that the basic operation of determining the power state rather than the calculation subject be made.
전력 상태 모니터링 단계의 목적은 현재 사용하는 전력량을 모니터링 하고 전력 공급 상태를 바탕으로 미래의 전력 수급 상황을 예상하는 것이다. The purpose of the power status monitoring phase is to monitor the amount of power currently used and to predict future power supply and demand based on the status of the power supply.
순수 전기자동차의 경우 전력 공급 구성요소는 배터리(112)와 구동 모터의 회생제동으로 간단하지만, 온라인 전기자동차의 경우 전력 공급 구성요소는 배터리(112), 슈퍼 캐패시터(114), 집전장치(110), 구동모터의 회생제동 에너지 등으로 복잡해진다. In the case of a pure electric vehicle, the power supply component is simple by regenerative braking of the battery 112 and the driving motor. In the case of an online electric vehicle, the power supply component is a battery 112, a supercapacitor 114, and a current collector 110. This is complicated by the regenerative braking energy of the drive motor.
차량의 전력 공급 구성요소는 전력 구성 특성이 각기 다른데, 일정시간 동안 지속적으로 전력을 공급할 수 있는 것과 일정 주기로 전력을 공급하는 구성요소가 있다. 지속적으로 전력을 공급할 수 있는 구성 요소로는 배터리(112)와 슈퍼 캐패시터(114)가 있으며 배터리(112)는 지속적으로 전력을 공급하고, 슈퍼 캐패시터(114)는 배터리(112)에 비하여 짧지만 지속적으로 에너지를 공급할 수 있다. 이에 반하여 집전장치(110)는 일정 주기로 전력을 공급하고, 모터의 회생제동 에너지는 순간적으로 전력을 공급한다.The power supply components of a vehicle have different power composition characteristics, which are capable of continuously supplying power for a certain time and power supplying elements at regular intervals. The components that can be continuously powered include the battery 112 and the super capacitor 114, the battery 112 is a continuous supply of power, the super capacitor 114 is shorter than the battery 112, but continuous Can supply energy. On the contrary, the current collector 110 supplies electric power at regular intervals, and the regenerative braking energy of the motor instantaneously supplies electric power.
이때, 제어부(100)는 전력 공급 구성요소의 정보를 조합하여 차량내 공급 가능한 전력량을 계산하고, 모터부, 공조부 등의 전력 소모 장치에서 소모되는 전체 소모 전력량을 비교하여 전력 공급 여유도를 계산할 수 있다. 이때, 차량에서 공급 가능한 전력량의 계산에 있어서는 크게 배터리(112)와 슈퍼 캐패시터(114) 등과 같은 안정적인 전원 공급원에서만 전력을 공급 받는 EV(전기자동차) 모드와 집전장치(110), 모터의 회생제동 등과 같은 불안정한 전력 공급원으로부터 전력을 공급하는 OLEV(온라인 전기자동차)모드로 나눌 수 있다. At this time, the control unit 100 calculates the amount of power available in the vehicle by combining the information of the power supply components, and calculates the power supply margin by comparing the total amount of power consumed by the power consumption devices such as the motor unit and the air conditioning unit. Can be. At this time, in the calculation of the amount of power that can be supplied from the vehicle, the EV (electric vehicle) mode, the current collector 110, the regenerative braking of the motor, etc. It can be divided into OLEV (Online Electric Vehicle) mode, which supplies power from the same unstable power source.
한편, 차량의 전력 소모 구성요소로는 크게 구동 모터, 보조 모터 등의 구동을 제어하는 모터부(106)와, 공조 시스템 제어기인 공조부(108)에서 구동시키는 콘덴서(condenser), 압축기 팬(compressor fan), 압축기 모터(compressor motor) 등이 있으며, 전력의 80∼90%는 구동모터와 공조 시스템이 사용한다. 따라서 실시간으로 전력 사용량을 평가할 때는 구동모터와 공조 시스템의 실시간 사용량에 일정 비율을 고려하여 전력 사용량을 판단한다. On the other hand, the power consumption components of the vehicle is largely the motor unit 106 for controlling the driving of the drive motor, auxiliary motor, etc., and the condenser and compressor fan (driven by the air conditioning unit 108, the air conditioning system controller) fans, compressor motors, etc., 80 to 90% of the power is used by drive motors and air conditioning systems. Therefore, when evaluating power consumption in real time, the power consumption is judged by considering a certain ratio in real time usage of the driving motor and the air conditioning system.
전력 소모 구성요소인 모터부(106)내 구동모터, 보조모터, 각종 콘트롤러 등은 주행에 필수 요소이므로 전력 소모 우선순위가 높으며, 공조 시스템 등의 전력 소모 우선순위가 낮은 것은 실시간 전력 상태 평가를 통해 사용량을 제한받는다. Since the driving motor, auxiliary motor, and various controllers in the motor unit 106, which are power consumption components, are essential elements for driving, the power consumption priority is high, and the low power consumption priority of the air conditioning system is evaluated through real-time power state evaluation. Usage is limited.
전력 상태는 크게 공급 가능 전력량, 공급 지속 시간, 소비 전력량 및 공급 가능 전력량과 소모 전력량의 차이인 전력 공급 여유도로 구성된다. The power state is composed of power supply margin, supply duration, power consumption, and power supply margin, which is a difference between the supply power and the power consumption.
EV모드의 경우 공급가능 전력량()은 배터리(112) 또는 슈퍼 캐패시터(114)의 최대 방전량으로 계산되며(단, 각 구성품의 공급지속 시간이 양수인 경우), 공급 지속 시간은 배터리(112) 또는 슈퍼 캐패시터(114)의 SOC(state of charge)와 최대 방전 량으로 아래의 [수학식 1]과 같이 계산될 수 있다. In the EV mode, the amount of power available for supply () is calculated as the maximum discharge amount of the battery 112 or the supercapacitor 114 (if the supply duration of each component is positive), and the supply duration is the battery 112 or The state of charge (SOC) and the maximum discharge amount of the supercapacitor 114 may be calculated as shown in Equation 1 below.
<수학식 1><Equation 1>
Figure PCTKR2011010076-appb-I000001

OLEV모드의 경우 공급 가능 전력량은 EV모드의 배터리(112) 및 슈퍼 캐패시터(114)의 최대 방전량 외에도 집전장치(110) 및 구동 모터의 회생제동으로 인한 전력량을 실시간으로 합산하여 구할 수 있다. 그러나 공급 지속시간은 순간적인 에너지의 공급지속시간을 예측하기 어렵기 때문에 EV모드에서의 배터리(112)와 슈퍼 캐패시터(114)의 최대 방전량 및 공급 지속 시간으로 계산한다. In the OLEV mode, the amount of power that can be supplied can be obtained by summing in real time the amount of power due to regenerative braking of the current collector 110 and the driving motor in addition to the maximum discharge amount of the battery 112 and the super capacitor 114 of the EV mode. However, since the supply duration is difficult to predict the instantaneous energy supply duration, it is calculated as the maximum discharge amount and supply duration of the battery 112 and the supercapacitor 114 in the EV mode.
소모 전력량은 차량내의 주요 전력 소모 구성요소에서의 소모 전력량의 합으로 계산할 수 있으며, 공급 전력량과 소모 전력량의 차이인 전력 공급 여유도는 실시간 전력 모니터링으로 계산할 수 있다. Power consumption can be calculated as the sum of the power consumption of the major power consumption components in the vehicle, and the power supply margin, which is the difference between the power supply and the power consumption, can be calculated by real-time power monitoring.
위와 같이, 차량에 대한 전력 상태 모니터링을 수행하는 상태에서 제어부(100)는 차량의 외부 또는 내부 온도를 참조하여 현재 차량의 실내에 냉방 또는 난방 등의 수행 등 공조 시스템의 구동이 필요한지 여부를 검사한다(S202).As described above, in a state in which power state monitoring of the vehicle is performed, the controller 100 checks whether the driving of the air conditioning system such as cooling or heating is currently performed in the interior of the vehicle with reference to the external or internal temperature of the vehicle. (S202).
이때, 제어부(100)는 차량 내외의 온도 센서(104)를 통해서 차량의 냉방 또는 난방 요구를 계산할 수 있는데, 차량의 외부 온도와 내부 온도의 차이, 표준 승객 쾌적 온도와 차량내 내부 온도의 차이를 바탕으로 냉방 또는 난방 요구 및 요구량을 판단할 수 있다. At this time, the control unit 100 may calculate a cooling or heating request of the vehicle through the temperature sensor 104 inside and outside the vehicle, and the difference between the outside temperature of the vehicle and the inside temperature, and the difference between the standard passenger comfort temperature and the inside temperature of the vehicle. Based on this, cooling or heating needs and demands can be determined.
위와 같은 판단에 따라 차량내 냉방 또는 난방의 수행이 필요하여 공조 시스템을 구동시켜야하는 것으로 판단되는 경,우 제어부(100)는 위와 같은 모니터링 수행 결과로 산출되는 전력 공급 여유도를 검사하여 공조 시스템에 대한 소모 전력 제어가 필요한지 여부를 검사한다(S204).When it is determined that the air conditioning system needs to be driven due to the need for cooling or heating in the vehicle according to the above determination, the control unit 100 checks the power supply margin calculated as a result of the above monitoring to provide the air conditioning system. It is checked whether power consumption control is required (S204).
이하, 소모 전력 제어를 적용하는 판단 과정을 좀더 자세히 살펴보기로 한다.Hereinafter, a determination process of applying power consumption control will be described in more detail.
즉, 차량 전력 상태 모니터링 단계(S200)에서 냉방 또는 난방 요구가 있다고 판단되면, 차량의 전력상태를 기준으로 소모전력 제어 적용을 판단할 수 있다.That is, when it is determined that there is a request for cooling or heating in the vehicle power state monitoring step (S200), the application of power consumption control may be determined based on the power state of the vehicle.
소모전력 제어를 적용해야 하는 경우는 다음과 같다. 첫 번째로, 공급 가능 전력량이 소비 전력량보다 작은 경우 : 일반적으로 보통의 주행상황에서는 공급 가능 전력량이 소비 전력량보다 크도록 차량을 설계하나 급가속, 경사로 운행 등으로 인한 일시적인 공급 전력량 부족 또는 배터리 SOC 부족으로 인해 공급 가능 전력량이 부족하게 되는 경우가 해당될 수 있다. The case where power consumption control should be applied is as follows. First, when the amount of power available is less than the power consumption: In general, the vehicle is designed so that the amount of power available is greater than the power consumption under normal driving conditions, but temporary power supply shortage due to rapid acceleration or ramp operation or lack of battery SOC. This may be the case that the amount of power available for supply is insufficient.
두 번째로, 에너지 공급 지속 시간이 일정 수준 이하인 경우(이 값은 디폴트(defualt) 로 설정할 수 있으며, 사용자가 수정할 수도 있는 변수로 에너지 부족을 인지하고 운행 가능한 거리를 판단하는 척도이다.)가 해당될 수 있다. Secondly, if the duration of energy supply is below a certain level (this value can be set as a default, a parameter that can be modified by the user is a measure for recognizing energy shortage and determining the distance traveled). Can be.
그러나, 소모전력 제어를 적용하지 않아도 되는 상황에서는 일반적으로 공조시스템의 제어 알고리즘(최적제어)을 사용하여 제어를 수행하며, 이 경우는 소모 전력 보다는 승객의 쾌적성을 우선으로 공조시스템을 제어한다(S210).However, in situations where power consumption control is not required, control is generally performed using a control algorithm (optimal control) of the air conditioning system, and in this case, the air conditioning system is controlled with priority on passenger comfort rather than power consumption ( S210).
도 3은 공조 시스템의 구동에 소모 전력 제어를 적용하게 되는 전력 상태를 도시한 것으로, 공조 시스템 전력공급 여유가 낮은 경우에는 공조 시스템에 대해 소모 전력 제어를 수행하며, 전력공급 여유가 높은 경우에는 승객의 쾌적성을 우선으로 공조 시스템에 대한 최적 제어를 수행하게 되는 것을 알 수 있다.FIG. 3 illustrates a power state in which power consumption control is applied to driving an air conditioning system. When the air conditioning system power supply margin is low, the power consumption control is performed for the air conditioning system. It can be seen that the optimum control of the air conditioning system is performed with priority on comfort.
위와 같이, 공조 시스템의 구동에 있어서 소모 전력 제어가 필요하게 되는 경우 제어부(100)는 소모 전력 제어 알고리즘을 수행하게 된다(S206).As described above, when it is necessary to control the power consumption in driving the air conditioning system, the controller 100 performs a power consumption control algorithm (S206).
이하, 소모 전력 제어 알고리즘에 대해 좀더 상세히 설명하면, 소모 전력 제어란 차량 내의 전력 수급 상황이 좋지 못하여 공조 시스템에서 소비되는 전력량이 제한되는 상황에서도 최적의 냉방 또는 난방 성능을 유지하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 따라서 소모 전력 제어 알고리즘에 실시간 차량 전력 상태와 냉난방 요구가 주요 변수로 사용된다. Hereinafter, the power consumption control algorithm will be described in more detail. The power consumption control aims to maintain optimal cooling or heating performance even in a situation where the power supply and demand in the vehicle is not good and the amount of power consumed in the air conditioning system is limited. Therefore, real-time vehicle power status and heating and cooling requirements are used as key variables in power consumption control algorithm.
위와 같은, 소모 전력 제어 알고리즘의 실시예로 압축기 회전수 제어 방식이 있다. 앞서 설명한 것처럼 공조 시스템의 주요 전력 소비원은 압축기이다. 따라서 압축기에서 소비하는 전력량을 최적으로 유지하는 것이 공조 시스템의 전력 사용량을 좌우한다. 또한 냉방 또는 난방 요구량은 냉방 또는 난방을 시작하는 시점에서 최대가 되며, 냉방 또는 난방이 수행되어 차량 내부 온도가 일정해지면 줄어든다. 따라서 냉방 또는 난방 요구량에 맞추어 압축기의 사용을 제어하면 소비전력을 크게 줄일 수 있다.As described above, an embodiment of the power consumption control algorithm is a compressor speed control method. As mentioned above, the main power consumption of the air conditioning system is the compressor. Therefore, optimally maintaining the amount of power consumed by the compressor determines the power consumption of the air conditioning system. In addition, the cooling or heating demand is maximized at the start of cooling or heating, and decreases when the temperature inside the vehicle becomes constant due to cooling or heating being performed. Therefore, controlling the use of the compressor in accordance with cooling or heating requirements can greatly reduce power consumption.
대표적인 압축기 제어 방식으로는 압축기를 일정 주기로 켜고 끄는 것을 반복하는 방식(On/ Off control), 다수의 압축기를 사용하여 필요에 따라 일부만 구동시키는 방식(Multiple compressor control), 압축기 회전수를 변화시키는 방식(Variable speed control), Hot gas bypass, Clearance volume control, Cylinder unloading control, 등이 있다. Typical compressor control methods include repeating the compressor on and off at regular intervals (On / Off control), using a plurality of compressors to drive only a portion (Multiple compressor control), and changing the compressor rotation speed ( Variable speed control), Hot gas bypass, Clearance volume control, Cylinder unloading control, etc.
도 4는 압축기 제어방식에 따른 효율을 도시한 그래프로, 최대 냉방 요구량 대비 50%의 냉방 요구가 있을 때 소비되는 전력량을 비교하여 도시한 것이다. 50%의 냉방 요구량이라면 전력 사용량이 50%가 되는 것은 이상적인 경우이고, 비교결과 압축기 회전수를 변화시키는 방식이 가장 효율적인 것을 알 수 있다. 4 is a graph illustrating the efficiency according to the compressor control method, and compares the amount of power consumed when there is a cooling demand of 50% of the maximum cooling demand. If the cooling demand is 50%, it is ideal that the power consumption is 50%, and the comparison shows that the method of changing the compressor rotation speed is the most efficient.
압축기 회전수 제어 방식(Variable speed control)의 경우 회전수 증가에 따라 소모전력과 냉방 또는 난방 능력이 증가한다. 그러나 실제적으로 입력 전력 대비 출력되는 냉방 또는 난방 성능은 압축기 회전수가 낮을수록 좋다. 따라서 소모전력 제어를 수행해야 하는 전기자동차에 적합한 제어 방식이다. 이와 관련된 압축기 회전수 제어 방식의 대표적인 성능은 도 5에서 보여지는 바와 같다. In the case of compressor speed control, the power consumption and cooling or heating capacity increases as the speed increases. However, in practice, the lower the compressor speed, the better the cooling or heating performance output relative to the input power. Therefore, it is a control method suitable for electric vehicles that need to perform power consumption control. Representative performance of the compressor speed control method in this regard is shown in FIG.
따라서, 소모 전력 제어는 소모 전력 제어가 필요하다는 판단이 있을 때 냉방 또는 난방 요구에 따른 최적의 압축기 회전수를 계산하는 최적제어에 전력 공급 여유에 따라 압축기 회전수를 추가적으로 제한하는 방식이다. 압축기 회전수 제한에 대한 기준은 소모 전력 제어에 따른 압축기 회전수 제한을 도시된 도 6을 참조하여 좀 더 자세하게 이해 할 수 있다. Therefore, the power consumption control is a method of additionally limiting the compressor rotation speed according to the power supply margin to the optimum control for calculating the optimum compressor rotation speed according to the cooling or heating demand when it is determined that power consumption control is necessary. The criterion for limiting the compressor rotation speed may be understood in more detail with reference to FIG. 6, which illustrates the compressor rotation speed limit according to the power consumption control.
전력 공급 여유 및 압축기 RPM 제한에 대한 설정값은 차량의 사용 목적(근거리용, 장거리용), 전력 공급 패턴(배터리 용량, 급전 설비의 분포현황), 사용자의 요구에 따라 변화할 수 있다. The setting values for power supply margin and compressor RPM limit can be changed according to the vehicle's purpose of use (near and long distance), power supply pattern (battery capacity, distribution of power supply equipment) and user's requirements.
위와 같이, 소모 전력 제어 알고리즘을 수행을 통해 공조 시스템의 구동 조건이 새로이 결정되는 경우 제어부(100)는 공조부(108)로 새로이 결정된 구동조건을 전달하여(S208) 차량의 냉방 또는 난방의 수행이 위 결정된 구동조건으로 동작할 수 있도록 한다.As described above, when the driving condition of the air conditioning system is newly determined by performing the power consumption control algorithm, the controller 100 transmits the newly determined driving condition to the air conditioning unit 108 (S208) to perform cooling or heating of the vehicle. It can be operated under the driving condition determined above.
상기한 바와 같이, 본 발명은 전기자동차용 공조 소모 전력 제어에 있어서, 캔 시스템을 기반으로 차량내 전력을 소모하는 유닛들의 전력 소모량을 지속적으로 모니터링하여 차량의 전력 상태를 판단하고, 차량의 전력 상태에 따라 공조 시스템의 소모 전력을 제어함으로서, 전기로 구동하는 자동차, 순수 전기자동차 또는 온라인 전기자동차에서 주행거리를 확보하면서도 최적의 차량 실내 환경을 구현할 수 있다.As described above, in the air conditioning power consumption control for an electric vehicle, the power state of the vehicle is determined by continuously monitoring the power consumption of units consuming power in the vehicle based on the can system, and the power state of the vehicle. By controlling the power consumption of the air conditioning system according to, it is possible to implement the optimal vehicle indoor environment while securing the mileage in an electric vehicle, a pure electric vehicle or an online electric vehicle.
한편 상술한 본 발명의 설명에서는 구체적인 실시 예에 관해 설명하였으나, 여러 가지 변형이 본 발명의 범위에서 벗어나지 않고 실시될 수 있다. 따라서 발명의 범위는 설명된 실시 예에 의하여 정할 것이 아니고 특허청구범위에 의해 정하여져야 한다.Meanwhile, in the above description of the present invention, specific embodiments have been described, but various modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the invention should be determined by the claims rather than by the described embodiments.
