Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to the field of vehicle technologies, and in particular, to a thermal protection method and apparatus for an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) module, and a vehicle.

Background

The driving system is one of the core components of the electric automobile, and the safety and the reliability of the driving system directly influence the safety and the reliability of the whole electric automobile. At present, the technology in the field of driving motors is mature, the design method, the design theory and the process technology are accumulated and precipitated after time, and the safety and the reliability of the driving motor can be ensured to a certain extent. Therefore, the safety and reliability of the motor controller for the vehicle are very important. The vehicle motor controller needs to pay attention to a plurality of factors, wherein the IGBT module is the most important factor of the vehicle motor controller, the torque requirement of a driver is converted into required current through a software algorithm controlled by the motor, the IGBT module is controlled to take power from a battery and supply the power to a driving motor, and the reliability of the IGBT module is directly related to the running of a vehicle. Ensuring the normal and reliable operation of the IGBT is an important issue.

Overvoltage, overcurrent and high temperature are main factors causing the failure of the IGBT module, an HP2 structure in the IGBT module is directly water-cooled, heat generated by the IGBT is transferred through a PINFIN below the module, as shown in fig. 1, the heat capacity of the PINFIN is very small, and the heat on the PINFIN structure can be continuously taken away by flowing water to achieve the heat dissipation effect. An NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor in the HP2 module does not directly detect the Temperature of the IGBT chip, but indirectly detects the Temperature of the IGBT. The heat of IGBT, pass to the base plate through DCB (Direct Copper Bonding, ceramic base Copper clad laminate), then dispel the heat through radiator or PINFEN, and NTC can only indirectly gather the temperature of IGBT chip through the temperature of gathering DCB, as shown in figure 2, so when IGBT temperature rapid change, the temperature of IGBT can't in time be reacted to NTC, if there is heavy current short time through IGBT, a large amount of heat of production can't in time transmit NTC, cooling system is unusual this moment and also appears, can't in time take away the heat. Therefore, the normal operation of the cooling system is a precondition for ensuring the normal use of the IGBT module with the HP2 structure, and the fault probability of the system is high.

Therefore, how to protect the IGBT module from damage when an abnormality occurs in the cooling system is important.

In order to solve the problem mentioned in the above background art center that the thermal protection of the IGBT module cannot be effectively realized in the related art, the present application provides a thermal protection method for the IGBT module, in which whether the cooling system of the vehicle has a fault or not can be detected, and when the cooling system fault is detected, the current maximum torque and the current maximum power of the motor controller of the vehicle are respectively reduced to the preset maximum torque and the preset maximum power, and the temperature of the IGBT module of the motor controller is controlled to be lower than the damage temperature according to the preset maximum torque and the preset maximum power as the limit values of the motor controller while the cooling system fault is prompted, so that the problem that the thermal protection of the IGBT module cannot be effectively realized in the related art is solved, and the driver can be ensured to drive the vehicle to the maintenance point for detection and maintenance in the state that the cooling system fault is not damaged by itself, the reliability of the whole vehicle is improved, and meanwhile, the safety of the whole vehicle is improved.

Specifically, fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of a thermal protection method for an IGBT module according to an embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 3, the thermal protection method of the IGBT module includes the steps of:

in step S301, it is detected whether the cooling system of the vehicle is malfunctioning.

It can be understood that, in order to ensure effective time-limited thermal protection, the embodiment of the present application may first detect whether the cooling system of the vehicle is in fault, so as to avoid the situation that thermal protection cannot be performed due to the fault of the cooling system of the vehicle.

When detecting whether the cooling system of the vehicle is in fault, the detection method in the related art may be adopted, and detailed description is omitted here to avoid redundancy.

Optionally, in some embodiments, before detecting whether the cooling system of the vehicle is faulty, the method further includes: acquiring the current torque demand of a driver and the actual temperature of an IGBT module; if the current torque demand is greater than a preset threshold, or the actual temperature is greater than a preset temperature, a cooling request is sent to the cooling system.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, when the current torque of the driver is greater than the preset threshold and the actual temperature of the IGBT module is greater than the preset temperature, the cooling request may be sent to the cooling system, where the preset threshold and the preset temperature may be preset thresholds and temperatures by a user, thresholds and temperatures obtained through a limited number of experiments, or thresholds and temperatures obtained through a limited number of computer simulations, and are not specifically limited herein.

It should be noted that, since the water pump needs a certain time to start, the torque value needs to be smaller than a certain value T1, where T1 may be the maximum available torque when the cooling system is normal.

In step S302, when a cooling system fault is detected, a current maximum torque and a current maximum power of a motor controller of the vehicle are respectively reduced to a preset maximum torque and a preset maximum power, wherein the preset maximum torque is smaller than the current maximum torque, and the preset maximum power is smaller than the current maximum power.

Optionally, in some embodiments, reducing the current maximum torque and the current maximum power of the motor controller of the vehicle to the preset maximum torque and the preset maximum power, respectively, comprises: acquiring the actual speed of the electric automobile; and matching the corresponding preset maximum torque and the preset maximum power according to the actual rotating speed.

The vehicle control unit detects a torque request of a driver, and when the torque required by the driver is larger than a certain value, the cooling system is controlled to start working, so that the generated heat can be timely dissipated. The radiator and the fan cool the cooling liquid. The instrument displays the system state and prompts the driver to enter the station for maintenance when the cooling system is in failure and the motor controller is in power limit.

As shown in fig. 6, the thermal protection method of the IGBT module includes the steps of:

and S601, electrifying the whole vehicle, and finishing initialization of each system.

S602, the driver READY prepares the vehicle to run.

S603, judging the torque demand of the driver, if the demanded torque is larger than a certain value (considering that the water pump needs a certain time to start, the torque value is smaller than T1), or the temperature of the system is higher.

And S604, the vehicle control unit requests the cooling system to start working.

And S605, judging whether the cooling system has faults, if so, executing the step S606, otherwise, executing the step S608.
