Research on AC Heating Strategy for Electric Vehicle Traction Batteries over the Full Life Cycle
To address the low-temperature safety concerns of electric vehicle traction batteries throughout their full life cycle,an optimal alternating current(AC)heating strategy for lithium-ion batteries is proposed based on an electro-thermal-aging coupled model.The high-precision coupled model integrates a second-order resistor-constant phase element equivalent circuit model with constant phase element,a thermal characteristics model,and a dynamic parameter-aging interaction model,comprehensively accounting for the battery's electrical dynamics,thermal behavior,and aging-dependent parameter variations.By introducing a lithium plating constraint to avoid lithium deposition reactions and setting an overvoltage constraint to prevent excessively high or low terminal voltages,a dual safety constraint framework is established.On this basis,the optimal AC frequency and amplitude corresponding to different temperature intervals over the full life cycle are calculated,and an optimal AC heating strategy aimed at maximizing the internal heating rate is formulated.The results show that the maximum temperature error between simulation and experiment is 0.29℃,and the maximum voltage error is 0.057 V over the full life cycle.The average heating rates for batteries with state of health(SOH)values of 95.03%,89.97%,84.54%,and 80.14% are 2.70,2.45,2.36,and 1.90℃/min,respectively.The maximum root mean square errors for voltage and temperature are 30.4 mV and 0.31℃.After 500 heating cycles,the battery SOH decreases by 2.2%.The incremental capacity(IC)curves,reflecting the degree of battery aging,show minimal change in peak values,with the curves before and after cyclic heating being essentially identical,thus verifying the safety and applicability of the heating strategy over the full battery life cycle as well as the validity of the model.This study provides technical support for low-temperature heating technologies of power batteries in new energy vehicles.
