This section provides background information related to the present disclosure only and is not necessarily prior art.

At present, the fuel cell power generation system vehicles in the market mainly comprise buses and logistics vehicles, and the mass popularization of the fuel cell power generation system buses meeting the high-speed driving requirement is not provided. The vehicle heat management system of the fuel cell power generation system mostly adopts a mode of integrating a high-power fan and a radiator core body for heat dissipation, and the heat dissipation power of the radiator can meet the heat dissipation requirements of the fuel cell power generation system under the limit working condition and after the power is attenuated.

Because the bus and the logistics vehicle have the working condition of long-time high-speed running, the output power requirement of the power generation system of the fuel cell power generation system is higher, and the heat dissipation power requirement of the heat management system of the fuel cell power generation system matched with the bus and the logistics vehicle is larger, the system volume is increased, the available layout space of the whole bus is limited, and the size requirement of each part including the heat management system is extremely high. For example, for a power generation system of a fuel cell power generation system with a power of more than 80kW, the corresponding heat dissipation power is usually more than 120kW, and the volume of a heat sink matched with the power is too large, so that the requirement of the whole vehicle arrangement space of a vehicle of the fuel cell power generation system cannot be met, and meanwhile, the whole vehicle coordination is seriously affected.

The fuel cell power generation system 6 herein mainly includes a fuel cell stack and a fuel cell auxiliary system, and can generate electricity by reaction while generating water and releasing heat after externally connecting a hydrogen source and supplying air. The fuel cell heat management system mainly comprises a system assembly for radiating heat of the fuel cell power generation system 6 and accessories and preserving heat in winter, and comprises a related control system.

As shown in fig. 1 and 6, a thermal management control method of a fuel cell power generation system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: judging the operation mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6; calculating a first maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell thermal management system and a first required heat dissipation power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 according to the working mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6; controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter a first heat dissipation mode according to the condition that the first required heat dissipation power is smaller than a first maximum heat dissipation power; and controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter a second heat dissipation mode according to the first required heat dissipation power not less than the first maximum heat dissipation power.

According to the thermal management control method of the fuel cell power generation system of the embodiment of the invention, in the normal operation mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6, namely the fuel cell power generation system 6 converts chemical energy into electric energy provided for the power system of the vehicle, in the mode, the fuel cell power generation system 6 and related auxiliary systems need to be radiated to ensure that the temperature of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is within a reasonable range, and the problem of abnormal operation caused by overhigh or overlow temperature is avoided. Therefore, in the thermal management control method for the fuel cell power generation system according to the present embodiment, it is necessary to determine the operation mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6 and to perform different control of the fuel cell power generation system 6 in a targeted manner depending on the operation mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6. Specifically, after the determination, it is determined that the fuel cell power generation system 6 is in the operating mode, and it is necessary to calculate a first maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell thermal management system, that is, the maximum heat dissipation capacity of the fuel cell thermal management system, and calculate a first required heat dissipation power of the fuel cell power generation system 6, that is, the required amount of the fuel cell power generation system 6. And when the first required heat dissipation power is smaller than the first maximum heat dissipation power, namely the supply is larger than the demand, the capacity of the fuel cell thermal management system is enough to meet the requirement of the fuel cell power generation system 6, and the fuel cell thermal management system is controlled to enter a first heat dissipation mode according to the requirement. When the first required heat dissipation power is not less than the first maximum heat dissipation power, that is, the supply is short of demand, it indicates that the capacity of the fuel cell thermal management system is insufficient to meet the demand of the fuel cell power generation system 6, and the first heat dissipation mode cannot meet the demand of the fuel cell power generation system 6, the fuel cell thermal management system is controlled to enter the second heat dissipation mode.

The size of first demand radiating power is relevant with ambient temperature, the speed of a vehicle, the characteristic of coolant liquid etc. this application embodiment is based on under the different condition to fuel cell power generation system 6 at the operation mode of difference, and its demand radiating power is different, provides the radiating mode of pertinence, guarantees to be satisfying under the prerequisite that fuel cell power generation system 6 vehicle possesses the high-speed operating mode that traveles, and fuel cell power generation system 6's radiating demand and arrangement space homoenergetic can be satisfied. The size of a radiator fan and a radiator in the fuel cell thermal management system is reduced, the overall size of the vehicle is not increased while the cost is reduced, the arrangement harmony and the attractiveness of the whole vehicle are realized, the miniaturization of the radiator is realized by utilizing the windward direction of the vehicle, and the optimal configuration is realized on the basis of ensuring the function and the performance.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the determination of the operation mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6 depends on the temperature of the liquid outlet of the fuel cell thermal management system, when the temperature of the liquid outlet is lower than a preset value, it indicates that the fuel cell power generation system 6 has not entered the operation mode, and at this time, in a non-start stage or a preparation stage before the operation mode, the fuel cell thermal management system is required to raise the temperature of the fuel cell power generation system 6, so as to enter the operation mode quickly, and the process becomes a warm-up. When the temperature of the liquid outlet is not lower than the preset value, the fuel cell power generation system 6 is indicated to enter the working mode, and part of heat energy is carried in the cooling liquid. Specifically, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 6, determining the operation mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6 includes obtaining a first outlet temperature of the fuel cell thermal management system; controlling the fuel cell power generation system 6 to enter a warm-up mode when the temperature of the first liquid outlet is lower than a first preset value; and controlling the fuel cell power generation system 6 to enter the working mode according to the condition that the temperature of the first liquid outlet is not less than the first preset value.

The first preset value can be set before the vehicle leaves a factory, and the first preset value is obtained through multiple experiments before the vehicle leaves the factory. Or the user can adjust the vehicle according to the actual condition of the vehicle after leaving the factory, and the manufacturer provides the reference range of the first preset value.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the first maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell management system is related to an ambient temperature of the fuel cell management system, a form speed of the vehicle, and a temperature of an inlet of the coolant in the fuel cell management system, and the first maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell management system may be calculated according to the ambient temperature of the fuel cell management system, the form speed of the vehicle, and the temperature of the inlet of the coolant in the fuel cell management system. The first required heat dissipation power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is related to the first output power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 and the first loss efficiency corresponding to the first output power, and the first required heat dissipation power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 can be calculated according to the first output power and the first loss efficiency. Specifically, as shown in fig. 3 and fig. 6, calculating the first maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell thermal management system and the first required heat dissipation power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 according to the operating mode of the fuel cell power generation system 6 includes obtaining a first ambient temperature, a first vehicle speed, and a first inlet temperature of the fuel cell thermal management system; calculating a first maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell thermal management system according to the first environment temperature, the first vehicle speed and the first liquid inlet temperature; acquiring first output power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 and first loss efficiency corresponding to the first output power; the first required radiated power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is calculated based on the first output power and the first loss efficiency.

The first ambient temperature may be obtained by providing a temperature sensor on the vehicle, and the controller 9 reads data of the temperature sensor. The first vehicle speed can be obtained by arranging a rotation sensor on the vehicle to obtain the rotating speed, and then the first vehicle speed is calculated. The first inlet temperature may be obtained by providing a temperature sensor in the thermal management system of the fuel cell, and the controller 9 reads data of the temperature sensor. The first output power and the first loss efficiency can be obtained by looking up a table by the controller 9, and the calculation formula of the first required heat dissipation power is P ═ P₁ x(1-η₁) Wherein P is the first required heat dissipation power, P₁Is the first output power, η₁The first loss in efficiency.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the first maximum heat dissipation power and the first required heat dissipation power are calculated and then compared, and different heat dissipation modes of the fuel cell thermal management system are determined according to the magnitude relationship. And when the first required heat dissipation power is smaller than the first maximum heat dissipation power, namely the supply is larger than the demand, the capacity of the fuel cell thermal management system is enough to meet the requirement of the fuel cell power generation system 6, and the fuel cell thermal management system is controlled to enter a first heat dissipation mode according to the requirement. Specifically, as shown in fig. 6, controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter the first heat dissipation mode according to the first required heat dissipation power being less than the first maximum heat dissipation power includes: the radiator fan and the circulation pump 2 are controlled to be opened and the air inlet grille 7 is controlled to be closed. The intake grill 7 is a structural member provided at the front of the vehicle for providing airflow for the vehicle to be mounted on the engine of the automobile for heat dissipation and for providing intake air for the engine. Normally, the intake grille 7 is in a normally open state, i.e. the airflow is continuously input. When the first required heat dissipation power is smaller than the first maximum heat dissipation power, namely, the supply is greater than the demand, the capacity of the fuel cell heat management system is enough to meet the requirement of the fuel cell power generation system 6, heat dissipation is not required to be additionally performed, only the opening of a radiator fan and a circulating pump 2 in the fuel cell heat management system is controlled, the radiator fan accelerates the air flow on the surface of a radiator to realize the heat dissipation of the radiator, the circulating pump 2 accelerates the flow of cooling liquid, the air inlet grille 7 is kept in a closed state during the period, and the problem of abnormal operation caused by excessively low temperature of the fuel cell power generation system 6 due to excessive heat dissipation is avoided.

In some embodiments of the present invention, when the first required heat dissipation power is not less than the first maximum heat dissipation power, that is, the supply is short of demand, it indicates that the capacity of the fuel cell thermal management system is insufficient to meet the requirement of the fuel cell power generation system 6, and the first heat dissipation mode is unable to meet the requirement of the fuel cell power generation system 6, the fuel cell thermal management system is controlled to enter the second heat dissipation mode. The second heat dissipation mode comprises two states, the boundary point of the two states is whether the ambient temperature is lower than an ambient temperature set value, when the ambient temperature is lower than the ambient temperature set value, the situation that the temperature of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is extremely low is indicated, the fuel cell power generation system 6 needs to be ensured to operate within a normal working temperature range, the fuel cell heat management system carries out heat preservation or heating on the fuel cell power generation system, and when the ambient temperature is not lower than the ambient temperature set value, the situation that the temperature of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is extremely high or within the normal working temperature range is indicated, and the fuel cell heat management system carries out heat dissipation on the fuel cell power generation system. Specifically, as shown in fig. 4 and 6, according to the first required heat dissipation power being not less than the first maximum heat dissipation power, controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter the second heat dissipation mode includes obtaining a second ambient temperature; according to the fact that the second environment temperature is smaller than the environment temperature set value; the air inlet grille 7 and the radiator fan are controlled to be closed, and the circulating pump 2 is controlled to be opened. The heat loss of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is greatly reduced after the air intake grill 7 and the radiator fan are turned off, and the coolant absorbing heat is made to continuously flow in the fuel cell by the circulation pump 2, so that the temperature of the fuel cell is rapidly raised. In this process, can also carry out circulating pump 2's closed-loop control according to inlet temperature and outlet temperature, for example, when outlet temperature is greater than the setting value or inlet temperature is greater than the setting value, close circulating pump 2, when outlet temperature is less than the setting value, open circulating pump 2.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the fuel cell thermal management system dissipates heat from the fuel cell power generation system 6 when the ambient temperature is not less than the ambient temperature set point, indicating that the fuel cell power generation system is at an extremely high temperature or within a normal operating temperature range. According to the fact that the second environment temperature is not smaller than the environment temperature set value, the radiator fan and the circulating pump 2 are controlled to be started to radiate heat, along with the continuous operation of the fuel cell power generation system 6, the second liquid outlet temperature of the fuel cell heat management system is continuously obtained, according to the fact that the second liquid outlet temperature is not smaller than a second preset value, namely the second liquid outlet temperature is increased to the second preset value, the fact that the radiator fan and the circulating pump 2 are not enough for meeting the heat radiation requirement of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is indicated, therefore, the air inlet grille 7 needs to be controlled to be started, the radiator fan is controlled to be stopped, and the vehicle runs to face the wind to cool the fuel cell power generation system 6. Specifically, as shown in fig. 4 and 6, controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter the second heat dissipation mode according to the first required heat dissipation power being not less than the first maximum heat dissipation power further includes controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter the second heat dissipation mode according to the second ambient temperature being not less than the ambient temperature setting value; controlling the radiator fan and the circulating pump 2 to be started; acquiring a second outlet temperature of the fuel cell thermal management system; according to the fact that the temperature of the second liquid outlet is not less than a second preset value; the air intake grille 7 is controlled to be opened, and the radiator fan is controlled to be closed. Along with the gradual cooling of the fuel cell power generation system 6 after the air intake grille 7 is opened, the temperature of the cooling liquid of the fuel cell heat management system is gradually reduced, when the temperature of the second liquid outlet is smaller than the second preset value, the air intake grille 7 does not need to be opened any more, and the heat dissipation requirement can be met only by opening the radiator fan. Specifically, controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter the second heat dissipation mode further comprises controlling the temperature of the second liquid outlet to be smaller than a second preset value according to the first required heat dissipation power not smaller than the first maximum heat dissipation power; controlling the air inlet grille 7 to be closed; controlling the radiator fan to be started.

In some embodiments of the present invention, it is described above that the first heat dissipation mode and the second heat dissipation mode are executed on the fuel cell power generation system 6 based on the running of the vehicle, the ambient temperature, and the like, and the boundary point between the first maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell thermal management system and the first required heat dissipation power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 is a point where the maximum heat dissipation power and the required heat dissipation power change at any time and need to be determined again after the second heat dissipation mode is executed on the fuel cell power generation system 6. Therefore, after the fuel cell thermal management system is controlled to enter the second heat dissipation mode according to the first required heat dissipation power being not less than the first maximum heat dissipation power, the second maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell thermal management system and the second required heat dissipation power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 need to be calculated, and the fuel cell thermal management system is controlled to enter the first heat dissipation mode or the second heat dissipation mode according to the magnitude relation between the second maximum heat dissipation power and the second required heat dissipation power. Specifically, as shown in fig. 5 and fig. 6, after controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter the second heat dissipation mode according to the first required heat dissipation power being not less than the first maximum heat dissipation power, the method further includes: acquiring a third environment temperature, a third vehicle speed and a second liquid inlet temperature of the fuel cell thermal management system; calculating a second maximum heat dissipation power of the fuel cell thermal management system according to the third environment temperature, the third vehicle speed and the second liquid inlet temperature; acquiring second output power of the fuel cell thermal management system and second loss efficiency corresponding to the second output power; calculating a second required heat dissipation power according to the second output power and the second loss efficiency; controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter a first heat dissipation mode according to the fact that the second required heat dissipation power is smaller than the second maximum heat dissipation power; and controlling the fuel cell thermal management system to enter a second heat dissipation mode according to the second required heat dissipation power not less than the second maximum heat dissipation power. By accurately controlling the output power of the fuel cell power generation system 6 and the fuel cell heat pipe system, the fuel cell power generation system 6 is ensured to work at the most suitable temperature, and the effective utilization of energy and the optimal energy consumption of the whole vehicle are realized. Through the control of air-inlet grille 7, radiator fan, automatically controlled three-way valve 8 and circulating pump 2 operating time, realize the accurate control to coolant liquid temperature and flow, and then realize the accurate control to 6 operating temperature of fuel cell power generation system, reach efficiency and the best effect of life-span.

The second ambient temperature and the third ambient temperature may be obtained by providing a temperature sensor on the vehicle, and the controller 9 reads data of the temperature sensor. The third vehicle speed can be calculated by arranging a rotation sensor on the vehicle to obtain the rotation speed. The second inlet temperature may be obtained by providing a temperature sensor in the thermal management system of the fuel cell, and the controller 9 reads data of the temperature sensor. The second output power and the second loss efficiency can be obtained by looking up the table by the controller 9, and the calculation formula of the second required heat dissipation power is P' ═ P₂ x(1-η₂) Wherein P' is the second required heat dissipation power, P₂Is the second output power, η₂The second loss in efficiency.

In some embodiments of the present invention, when the temperature of the first liquid outlet is smaller than the first preset value, the fuel cell thermal management system is controlled to enter a warm-up mode, the electronically controlled three-way valve 8 and the radiator fan are controlled to be closed, and the coolant is controlled to enter a small cycle to warm up the fuel cell power generation system 6.
