The first embodiment provides an online evaluation method of output current limitation, which is used for online evaluation of maximum output current allowed by a motor controller under a real-time working condition, so that the maximum current output capacity limitation set by the motor controller is matched with the actual exertable output capacity, and the working efficiency is improved, and specifically referring to fig. 1, the method comprises the following steps:
Firstly, providing a first mapping table comprising a mapping relation between the flow rate of cooling liquid and thermal resistance of a power module;
It should be noted that the above-mentioned thermal resistance is the thermal resistance of the chip-coolant, and the motor controller is mainly determined by the coolant flow rate because the coolant component is fixed, so that the corresponding thermal resistance is obtained according to the coolant flow rate in the above-mentioned steps (as shown in fig. 2, a thermal resistance-coolant flow rate relation curve reference diagram), and the number and types of thermal resistances included in the actual chip are different due to different types of power modules set in different electric controls, which are not limited by examples, i.e. IGBT/FRD modules including IGBT chip thermal resistance, FRD chip thermal resistance and coupling thermal resistance between IGBT-FRD, and SiC MOSFET modules including only the thermal resistance of SiC MOSFET chips. The relative proportions of the thermal resistance parameters remain unchanged at different coolant flow rates. Therefore, the thermal resistance extraction strategy can be set to mainly extract the thermal resistance result of the IGBT/SiC MOSFET chip, and the remaining thermal resistances are converted according to the ratio obtained by the table lookup (i.e., the first mapping table).
The method comprises the steps of collecting a plurality of groups of cooling liquid flow rates and thermal resistances, and generating a first mapping table by adopting a finite element thermal-fluid coupling simulation experiment or interpolation calibrated thermal resistance-cooling liquid flow rate relation curve. In this embodiment, a plurality of sets of coolant flow rates and thermal resistances are obtained in advance, and a mapping relationship between the coolant flow rates and the thermal resistances is generated, for example, an actual measurement calibration or a simulation experiment can improve the accuracy of the mapping relationship, and the mapping relationship is obtained by directly looking up a table, so that the operation is convenient.
S100, acquiring the flow rate and the temperature of the real-time cooling liquid of a power module in a motor controller, and acquiring real-time thermal resistance according to the first mapping table;
In the above step, the real-time thermal resistance can be directly obtained according to the first mapping table, and additionally, the real-time cooling liquid flow rate and the real-time cooling liquid temperature can be measured by a method commonly used in the prior art, including but not limited to a method of directly obtaining by using a sensor or the like, or a disclosed method of collecting the cooling liquid flow rate or the temperature in real time.
S200, collecting power parameters of a motor controller, wherein the power parameters of the motor controller comprise a power factor, a fundamental wave frequency, a switching frequency, a bus voltage and an output current;
In this embodiment, the motor controller parameters are mainly determined by the operating conditions, and are specifically obtained by the above-mentioned prior art means, including but not limited to sensor acquisition, etc., power factor, fundamental frequency, switching frequency, bus voltage, and output current.
S300, obtaining maximum output current allowed by a chip of a power module in the motor controller at the highest junction temperature according to the power parameter, the real-time thermal resistance and the real-time cooling liquid temperature of the motor controller, and generating a first curve corresponding to the maximum output current at different chip junction temperatures;
The method comprises the steps of calibrating conduction loss and switching loss of a plurality of sample chips at the highest junction temperature in advance, obtaining allowed maximum output current corresponding to the highest chip junction temperature of each sample by adopting circuit simulation or analytic calculation, calculating the functional relation between the highest chip junction temperature of each sample and the allowed maximum output current to generate a second mapping table, obtaining corresponding allowed maximum output current based on the second mapping table by adopting the highest chip junction temperature of a power module in a calculation motor controller, and generating a first curve corresponding to the maximum output current of different chip junction temperatures.
In the above steps, the data may be tabulated according to a circuit simulation or a relational analysis calculation to generate a second mapping table according to a functional relation between the highest chip junction temperature of each sample and the allowed maximum output current according to a plurality of actual measurement values, and the corresponding allowed maximum output current may be obtained according to the highest chip junction temperature (the highest chip junction temperature is obtained in advance) of the power module in the motor controller.
Taking the junction temperature and the output current of the chip as unknown variables and the rest as known variables, specifically, calculating the functional relation between the highest junction temperature and the allowable maximum output current of each sample to generate a second mapping table, wherein the second mapping table comprises the following steps:
and establishing a functional relation according to the difference value of the chip junction temperature and the real-time cooling liquid temperature and the product of the power parameter of the motor controller and the real-time thermal resistance, and generating a second mapping table according to the highest chip junction temperature of each sample and the allowable maximum output current interpolation.
In the above step, the functional relationship may be expressed as:
t jmax is the highest chip junction temperature, T f is the cooling liquid temperature; For real-time thermal resistance, the maximum allowable module loss P loss is determined by the power parameters of the motor controller, namely, the power factor P, the fundamental wave frequency f AC, the switching frequency f SW and the bus voltage V DC, and the maximum output current I rms_maxTj of the current chip junction temperature, and the power factor P, the fundamental wave frequency f AC, the switching frequency f SW and the bus voltage V DC are obtained through the power parameters of the motor controller, so that the mapping relation between the chip junction temperature T jmax and the allowable maximum output current I rms_maxTj under the real-time thermal resistance can be obtained. T j is the junction temperature of the chip, I rms_max is the maximum output current, and I rms_maxTj is the maximum output current corresponding to the junction temperature of the chip. The second mapping table can be generated in the operation process by linear difference and other methods according to the highest chip junction temperature of each sample and the maximum allowable output current.
S400, obtaining voltage stress changes when different chip junction temperatures of the power module in the motor controller correspond to allowed maximum output currents according to voltage limitation of the power module in a preset switch-off transient state in the motor controller, and generating a second curve corresponding to the maximum output currents;
As an illustration, in the step S300, considering the limitation of the temperature (i.e. obtaining the allowable maximum output current corresponding to the highest chip temperature) to the maximum output current, in the step S400, considering the limitation of the voltage overshoot to the maximum output current in the switching off transient state in the motor controller, that is, except the limitation of the highest chip junction temperature to the voltage (or current) output capability, the voltage overshoot V ce_max of the switching off transient state of the power module is another important factor limiting the current output capability, and it is required to ensure that V ce_max is lower than the chip blocking voltage value under any working condition (i.e. the voltage limitation to the power module in the switching off transient state preset in the motor controller) to prevent the chip breakdown.
Specifically, according to the voltage limitation of the power module under the switching off transient state preset in the motor controller, the voltage stress change is obtained when the junction temperatures of different chips of the power module in the motor controller correspond to the allowed maximum output current, and a second curve corresponding to the maximum output current is generated, including:
And controlling the dynamic switch of the motor controller, detecting the voltage of the power module in real time, drawing voltage change curves of the switches corresponding to the junction temperatures of a plurality of groups of chips in the turn-off transient state, and generating second curves corresponding to the maximum output currents of different junction temperatures.
In this embodiment, referring to fig. 3, in the corresponding relationship curve of the off voltage overshoot at different chip junction temperatures under the multiple sets of bus voltages, the voltage overshoot of the power module in the switching off transient state of the switch is affected by factors such as the bus voltage of the motor controller, the output current, the chip junction temperature, etc., for example, when the load current is the same, V ce_max is inversely related to the chip junction temperature, that is, the higher the junction temperature is, the smaller the V ce_max is, and in addition, the higher the junction temperature is, the maximum voltage allowed by the chip body is also raised. Therefore, it can be considered that the higher the chip junction temperature is, the larger the output current is allowed at the same bus voltage;
based on the above, according to the test result of the dynamic switching process of the vehicle motor controller system, corresponding relation curves of the off voltage overshoots under different chip junction temperatures under multiple groups of bus voltages are drawn, so as to obtain voltage change curves under the switching off transient state corresponding to the multiple groups of chip junction temperatures, and tabulation is performed, in the electric control operation process, the change curve of the chip junction temperature-maximum output current (voltage stress curve of the maximum current) is obtained by checking the bus voltages in real time and adopting a linear difference value and other methods, and is used as one of the limiting values of the current output capability, namely the second curve (refer to fig. 4).
S500, generating a change curve of the junction temperature of the chip and the allowable maximum output current as a target curve based on the minimum envelope after the first curve and the second curve are overlapped;
Specifically, the maximum output current allowed by the highest junction temperature of the chip is overlapped with the voltage stress curve of the maximum current, and the minimum value envelope is taken, namely the maximum output current allowed by the electric control under different junction temperatures (namely, the voltage overshoot of the highest junction temperature and the turn-off transient is considered at the same time), and referring to fig. 5, the maximum junction temperature limiting current and the voltage overshoot limiting current curve are overlapped to be the maximum allowed current output value under different junction temperatures, wherein a straight line parallel to the X axis and positioned at the position of I rms_maxTj is a first curve obtained under the working condition, the trend of the straight line in fig. 4 is similar to a second curve under the working condition, and the minimum value in the two curves is enveloped as shown in the figure, so that I rms_max corresponding to T j can be obtained. It should be specifically noted that the relative positions of the two curves under different motor working conditions (i.e. different real-time thermal resistances and power parameters of the motor controller) are continuously changed, the drawn envelope curves are also changed, and the two curves may not overlap. Therefore, in order to be suitable for quickly obtaining the allowable maximum output current under different working conditions, a plurality of first curves, second curves or target curves corresponding to the real-time thermal resistance and the motor controller power parameters can be stored in advance, and the target curves are obtained according to the matching of the real-time thermal resistance corresponding to the junction temperature of the real-time chip and the motor controller power parameters, namely, target curves under a plurality of working conditions are preset, and a table is directly checked and obtained under the application of actual working conditions.
And S600, acquiring the real-time chip junction temperature of the power module, and obtaining the corresponding maximum output current according to the target curve as an evaluation result.
In the above steps, the real-time chip junction temperature of the power module is acquired by adopting an acquisition mode disclosed in the prior art, and it is to be noted that, unlike the application of the chip junction temperature acquired in the prior art, the method is used for calculating the maximum output current allowed under the working condition, and as an example, the chip junction temperature can be monitored in real time by methods of on-line junction temperature extraction, NTC indirect calibration test and the like of the chip, and the real-time maximum output current value allowed under the real-time chip junction temperature can be determined.
In this embodiment, the problem that the current output capability of the power module cannot be fully exerted by the electric vehicle under the full working condition due to the fact that the current output capability of the existing vehicle motor controller under the worst working condition is used as the current output limit under any working condition is solved, and according to the maximum output current obtained by obtaining the highest chip temperature and the voltage limit of the power module under the switching off transient state preset in the motor controller, the limitation of the highest chip junction temperature and the voltage overshoot of the switching off transient state on the output current is considered, the thermal stress and the voltage stress current output limit of the power module are comprehensively considered, the analysis error caused by single-dimension analysis is reduced, and the evaluation result is more accurate.
