Design of lithium battery management system

Battery management system is tightly integrated with the battery, detecting the voltage, current and temperature of the battery at all times, as well as leakage detection, thermal management, battery equalization management, alarm reminder, calculating the remaining capacity, discharging power, and reporting the SOC&SOH status, and also controlling the maximum output power with an algorithm based on the battery's voltage, current and temperature, as well as controlling the charging machine with an algorithm to carry out the optimal charging flow.
Real-time communication with total controller, energy control system, display system, etc. through communication bus interface.

 

Functions of lithium battery BMS system

General BMS management system has the following functions, different projects depending on the circumstances of the flexible adjustment of parameters and functions;

(1) Thermal management (high and low temperature detection and protection); generally, low-temperature charging projects should avoid heating management as much as possible; the overall heat dissipation should try to use air-cooled or water-cooled cooling physical measures;

(2) Equalization management; divided into active equalization and passive equalization; products with larger capacity should prefer active equalization.

(3) Capacity calculation of SOC; combining the battery discharge curve and load voltage and current, the SOC is dynamically estimated by integrating the current; power batteries should be controlled within 10% error; energy storage batteries should be controlled within 5% error;

(4) Alarm reminder; all kinds of information of the battery pack (voltage, current, temperature, SOC, charging status, charging fault, etc.) are shown on the display, which can also be transmitted to the host computer through communication; when there is a malfunction, the buzzer sends out an alarm reminder to the user, and the specific type of malfunction is shown on the display at the same time; it can be adjusted according to the customer's requirements and the actual situation of the project.

(5) Power detection; generally upload the operating conditions to the host computer for analysis.

(6) Voltage detection; through the isolation and amplification of the voltage of the series-connected monomer, real-time detection of the voltage of each monomer can be realized; the voltage detection range is 0~5V, and the detection accuracy is ±5mV.

(7) SOC&SOH state detection; according to the performance indicators detected by the inspection, the health status of the battery can be analyzed.

8) Display system; able to display voltage, current, temperature, SOC, charging status, charging fault, etc.

9) Communication function; design the communication type and function according to the customer's requirement.

10) Leakage detection;

11) Optimal charging current control;

12) System self-test;
