Description

本発明は、電池状態推定装置及び電源装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a battery state estimation device and a power supply device.

二次電池は使用に伴って、電池容量の低下や電池の入出力抵抗値の上昇が生じる。そして、電池容量の低下や入出力抵抗値の上昇の度合いは、二次電池における正極の劣化状態と負極の劣化状態との関係によって決まり、より劣化度合いが高い方の影響を強く受ける。そして、正極及び負極のどちらの劣化度合いが高くなるかは、電池が使用された環境や使用のされ方などの使用履歴によって異なり、電池の固体差も影響する。従って、複数の二次電池において取得した電池容量や端子電圧、入出力抵抗値等が同じ値であっても、それらの正極及び負極の劣化状態は互いに異なる場合があるため、単に電池容量や端子電圧、入出力抵抗値等から二次電池の状態を正確に推定することは困難であった。 As the secondary battery is used, the battery capacity decreases and the input / output resistance value of the battery increases. The degree of decrease in battery capacity and increase in input / output resistance value is determined by the relationship between the deterioration state of the positive electrode and the deterioration state of the negative electrode in the secondary battery, and is strongly influenced by the one with the higher degree of deterioration. Which of the positive electrode and the negative electrode has a higher degree of deterioration depends on the usage history such as the environment in which the battery is used and how it is used, and the individual difference of the battery also affects it. Therefore, even if the battery capacity, terminal voltage, input / output resistance value, etc. acquired in a plurality of secondary batteries are the same, the deterioration states of the positive electrode and the negative electrode thereof may be different from each other. It was difficult to accurately estimate the state of the secondary battery from the voltage, input / output resistance value, and the like.

そこで、各電池の正極及び負極の特性を直接測定してそれぞれの劣化状態を考慮して電池状態を推定することが考えられる。しかしながら、正極及び負極の特性を直接測定するには、測定装置が必要となるため装置の大型化や複雑化を招く。特に、多数の二次電池を備えるPHEV(Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle)やHEMS(Home Energy Management System)などの電源装置ではこの問題が顕著となる。 Therefore, it is conceivable to directly measure the characteristics of the positive electrode and the negative electrode of each battery and estimate the battery state in consideration of the respective deterioration states. However, in order to directly measure the characteristics of the positive electrode and the negative electrode, a measuring device is required, which causes the device to become large and complicated. In particular, this problem becomes remarkable in power supply devices such as PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) and HEMS (Home Energy Management System) equipped with a large number of secondary batteries.

特許文献1に開示の構成では、正極及び負極の特性を直接測定することに替えて、負荷状態に応じた経時劣化を反映させるアルゴリズムを用いて二次電池の状態を推定している。 In the configuration disclosed in Patent Document 1, the state of the secondary battery is estimated by using an algorithm that reflects the deterioration with time according to the load state, instead of directly measuring the characteristics of the positive electrode and the negative electrode.

しかしながら、特許文献1に開示の構成では、正極及び負極の劣化は一様に進むものとしてアルゴリズムを設定しており、二次電池の使用履歴が何ら考慮されていない。上述の如く、二次電池の使用履歴によって正極及び負極の劣化度合いは異なるため、特許文献1に開示の構成により二次電池の状態を正確に推定するには改善の余地がある。 However, in the configuration disclosed in Patent Document 1, the algorithm is set so that the deterioration of the positive electrode and the negative electrode proceeds uniformly, and the usage history of the secondary battery is not considered at all. As described above, since the degree of deterioration of the positive electrode and the negative electrode differs depending on the usage history of the secondary battery, there is room for improvement in accurately estimating the state of the secondary battery by the configuration disclosed in Patent Document 1.

本発明は、かかる背景に鑑みてなされたもので、二次電池の状態を高精度に推定することができる電池状態推定装置及び電源装置を提供しようとするものである。 The present invention has been made in view of such a background, and an object of the present invention is to provide a battery state estimation device and a power supply device capable of estimating the state of a secondary battery with high accuracy.

As the characteristics of the positive electrode and the characteristics of the negative electrode, various information regarding the positive electrode and the negative electrode such as the capacity retention rate, the resistance increase rate, and the electrode potential in the positive electrode and the negative electrode can be adopted.

It is configured so that the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2 described later is estimated. For example, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, in the positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information, which consist of the correspondence between the capacity retention rate in the positive electrode and the negative electrode and the integrated charge / discharge electric energy in the secondary battery 2, the predetermined capacity is maintained. The rate is defined as the lower limit of the operating range. The operating range of the secondary battery 2 is a range in which the capacity retention rate is higher than the lower limit of the operating range, that is, there is little deterioration in the positive electrode and the negative electrode.

推定部62は、劣化度判定部63と電力量算出部64とを有する。劣化度判定部63は、正極の特性値と負極の特性値とを比較して、どちらが劣化度合いが高いか判定する。電力量算出部64は、劣化度判定部63において、正極及び負極のうち劣化度合いが高いと判定された方の特性値から二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を算出する。これにより、推定部62において、二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量が推定される。 The estimation unit 62 includes a deterioration degree determination unit 63 and an electric energy calculation unit 64. The deterioration degree determination unit 63 compares the characteristic value of the positive electrode with the characteristic value of the negative electrode, and determines which has the higher degree of deterioration. The electric energy calculation unit 64 calculates the electric energy that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2 from the characteristic values of the positive electrode and the negative electrode that are determined to have a high degree of deterioration in the deterioration degree determination unit 63. As a result, the estimation unit 62 estimates the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2.

報知部7は、推定結果表示部70を有する。推定結果表示部70は、推定部62による推定結果を表示して、ユーザに推定結果を報知する。推定結果表示部70は、所定のディスプレイで構成され、推定結果である二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を表示可能に構成されている。なお、報知部7は、推定結果表示部70に替えて、又はこれとともに、推定部62による推定結果を音声で報知したり、所定のランプで報知する推定結果出力部を備えていてもよい。例えば、推定結果である二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量が所定の基準値よりも高い場合又は低い場合に所定態様の音声を出力したり、所定態様のランプを点灯させるようにしてもよい。 The notification unit 7 has an estimation result display unit 70. The estimation result display unit 70 displays the estimation result by the estimation unit 62 and notifies the user of the estimation result. The estimation result display unit 70 is composed of a predetermined display, and is configured to be able to display the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2 which is the estimation result. The notification unit 7 may include an estimation result output unit that notifies the estimation result by the estimation unit 62 by voice or a predetermined lamp in place of or in addition to the estimation result display unit 70. For example, when the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2 which is the estimation result is higher or lower than the predetermined reference value, the sound of the predetermined mode is output or the lamp of the predetermined mode is turned on. Good.

次に、電池状態推定装置1の使用態様について、図4に示すフロー図を用いて説明する。まず、図4に示すように、ステップS1において、履歴情報取得部41により、二次電池2の使用履歴情報を取得し、履歴情報格納部51に格納する。本実施形態では、履歴情報取得部41は所定間隔で二次電池2の温度を取得し、二次電池2の使用履歴情報として温度履歴情報を履歴情報格納部51に格納する。また、履歴情報取得部41は二次電池2における積算充放電電力量(Wh)も所定間隔で取得し、履歴情報格納部51に格納する。 Next, the usage mode of the battery state estimation device 1 will be described with reference to the flow chart shown in FIG. First, as shown in FIG. 4, in step S1, the history information acquisition unit 41 acquires the usage history information of the secondary battery 2 and stores it in the history information storage unit 51. In the present embodiment, the history information acquisition unit 41 acquires the temperature of the secondary battery 2 at predetermined intervals, and stores the temperature history information in the history information storage unit 51 as the usage history information of the secondary battery 2. Further, the history information acquisition unit 41 also acquires the integrated charge / discharge electric energy (Wh) in the secondary battery 2 at predetermined intervals and stores it in the history information storage unit 51.

次に、ステップS2において、二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を推定する電力量推定タイミングが到来したか否かを判定する。当該判定は図示しない判定部により行う。電力量推定タイミングが到来していないと判定された場合は、再度ステップS1に戻る。 Next, in step S2, it is determined whether or not the electric energy estimation timing for estimating the electric energy that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2 has arrived. The determination is made by a determination unit (not shown). If it is determined that the electric energy estimation timing has not arrived, the process returns to step S1 again.

ステップS2において、電力量推定タイミングが到来していると判定された場合は、ステップS3に進み、電池情報取得部40により、二次電池2の電池情報を取得し、電池情報格納部50に格納する。本実施形態では、電池情報取得部40は、履歴情報格納部51に格納されている電力量推定タイミングまでの二次電池2における積算充放電電力量(Wh)を電池情報として取得する。 If it is determined in step S2 that the electric energy estimation timing has arrived, the process proceeds to step S3, the battery information acquisition unit 40 acquires the battery information of the secondary battery 2, and the battery information storage unit 50 stores the battery information. To do. In the present embodiment, the battery information acquisition unit 40 acquires the integrated charge / discharge power amount (Wh) in the secondary battery 2 up to the power amount estimation timing stored in the history information storage unit 51 as battery information.

そして、ステップS4において、特性情報抽出部60により、履歴情報格納部51に格納された温度履歴情報に対応する正極特性情報及び負極特性情報を特性情報記憶部30から抽出する。例えば、履歴情報格納部51に格納された温度履歴情報が第1の温度履歴である場合には、特性情報記憶部30から図2に示す第1の正極特性情報及び負極特性情報を抽出し、履歴情報格納部51に格納された温度履歴情報が第2の温度履歴である場合には、特性情報記憶部30から図3に示す第2の正極特性情報及び負極特性情報を抽出する。 Then, in step S4, the characteristic information extraction unit 60 extracts the positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information corresponding to the temperature history information stored in the history information storage unit 51 from the characteristic information storage unit 30. For example, when the temperature history information stored in the history information storage unit 51 is the first temperature history, the first positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information shown in FIG. 2 are extracted from the characteristic information storage unit 30. When the temperature history information stored in the history information storage unit 51 is the second temperature history, the second positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information shown in FIG. 3 are extracted from the characteristic information storage unit 30.

その後、ステップS5において、特性値算出部61により、電池情報格納部50に格納された二次電池2の電池情報と、特性情報抽出部60により抽出された正極特性情報及び負極特性情報とに基づいて、二次電池2の動作範囲内において正極の特性値と負極の特性値とを算出する。本実施形態では、例えば、履歴情報格納部51に格納された温度履歴情報が第1の温度履歴である場合には、図2に示す第1の正極特性情報及び負極特性情報と、電池情報格納部50に格納された二次電池2における積算充放電電力量(Wh)とに基づいて、二次電池2の動作範囲内において、正極の特性値及び負極の特性値として、正極の容量維持率(V/Vint)及び負極の容量維持率(V/Vint)を算出する。また、例えば、履歴情報格納部51に格納された温度履歴情報が第2の温度履歴である場合には、図3に示す第2の正極特性情報及び負極特性情報と、電池情報格納部50に格納された二次電池2における積算充放電電力量(Wh)とに基づいて、二次電池2の動作範囲内において、正極の特性値及び負極の特性値として、正極の容量維持率(V/Vint)及び負極の容量維持率(V/Vint)を算出する。 After that, in step S5, the characteristic value calculation unit 61 is based on the battery information of the secondary battery 2 stored in the battery information storage unit 50, and the positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information extracted by the characteristic information extraction unit 60. Then, the characteristic value of the positive electrode and the characteristic value of the negative electrode are calculated within the operating range of the secondary battery 2. In the present embodiment, for example, when the temperature history information stored in the history information storage unit 51 is the first temperature history, the first positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information shown in FIG. 2 and the battery information are stored. Based on the integrated charge / discharge power amount (Wh) in the secondary battery 2 stored in the unit 50, the capacity retention rate of the positive electrode is used as the characteristic value of the positive electrode and the characteristic value of the negative electrode within the operating range of the secondary battery 2. (V / V int ) and the capacity retention rate of the negative electrode (V / V int ) are calculated. Further, for example, when the temperature history information stored in the history information storage unit 51 is the second temperature history, the second positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information shown in FIG. 3 and the battery information storage unit 50 Based on the integrated charge / discharge power amount (Wh) in the stored secondary battery 2, the positive electrode capacity retention rate (V /) is used as the positive electrode characteristic value and the negative electrode characteristic value within the operating range of the secondary battery 2. V int ) and the capacity retention rate of the negative electrode (V / V int ) are calculated.

例えば、図2及び図3に示すように、電池情報格納部50に格納された二次電池2における積算充放電電力量(Wh)がWh1である場合には、正極の容量維持率(V/Vint)はV1pであり、負極の容量維持率(V/Vint)はV1nである。また、電池情報格納部50に格納された二次電池2における積算充放電電力量(Wh)がWh2である場合には、正極の容量維持率(V/Vint)はV1pであり、負極の容量維持率(V/Vint)はV1nである。 For example, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, when the integrated charge / discharge electric energy (Wh) in the secondary battery 2 stored in the battery information storage unit 50 is Wh1, the capacity retention rate (V /) of the positive electrode V int ) is V1p, and the capacity retention rate (V / V int ) of the negative electrode is V1n. Further, when the integrated charge / discharge electric energy (Wh) in the secondary battery 2 stored in the battery information storage unit 50 is Wh2, the capacity retention rate (V / V int ) of the positive electrode is V1p and the negative electrode The capacity retention rate (V / V int ) is V1n.

そして、図4に示すステップS6において、推定部62における劣化度判定部63により、特性値算出部61によって算出された正極の特性値及び負極の特性値とを比較して、どちらの劣化度合いが高いか判定する。本実施形態では、劣化度判定部63により、正極の容量維持率と負極の容量維持率とを比較して、容量維持率が低い方を劣化度合いが高いと判定する。 Then, in step S6 shown in FIG. 4, the deterioration degree determination unit 63 in the estimation unit 62 compares the characteristic value of the positive electrode and the characteristic value of the negative electrode calculated by the characteristic value calculation unit 61, and which degree of deterioration is determined. Determine if it is high. In the present embodiment, the deterioration degree determination unit 63 compares the capacity retention rate of the positive electrode with the capacity retention rate of the negative electrode, and determines that the lower the capacity retention rate is the higher the degree of deterioration.

例えば、図2に示すように、第1の温度履歴の場合において、二次電池2の積算充放電電力量がWh1の場合には、負極の特性値V1nが正極の特性値V1pよりも小さいため、劣化度判定部63により負極の方が正極よりも劣化度合いが高いと判定される。また、二次電池2の積算充放電電力量がWh2の場合も負極の特性値V2nが正極の特性値V2pよりも小さいため、劣化度判定部63により負極の方が正極よりも劣化度合いが高いと判定される。また、図3に示すように、第2の温度履歴の場合においては、二次電池2の積算充放電電力量がWh1の場合には、第1の温度履歴の場合と同様に、負極の特性値V1nが正極の特性値V1pよりも小さいため、劣化度判定部63により負極の方が正極よりも劣化度合いが高いと判定される。しかし、二次電池2の積算充放電電力量がWh2の場合には、正極の特性値V2pが負極の特性値V2nよりも小さいため、劣化度判定部63により正極の方が負極よりも劣化度合いが高いと判定される。 For example, as shown in FIG. 2, in the case of the first temperature history, when the integrated charge / discharge electric energy of the secondary battery 2 is Wh1, the characteristic value V1n of the negative electrode is smaller than the characteristic value V1p of the positive electrode. The deterioration degree determination unit 63 determines that the negative electrode has a higher degree of deterioration than the positive electrode. Further, even when the integrated charge / discharge electric energy of the secondary battery 2 is Wh2, the characteristic value V2n of the negative electrode is smaller than the characteristic value V2p of the positive electrode, so that the negative electrode has a higher degree of deterioration than the positive electrode by the deterioration degree determination unit 63. Is determined. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, in the case of the second temperature history, when the integrated charge / discharge electric energy of the secondary battery 2 is Wh1, the characteristics of the negative electrode are the same as in the case of the first temperature history. Since the value V1n is smaller than the characteristic value V1p of the positive electrode, the deterioration degree determination unit 63 determines that the negative electrode has a higher degree of deterioration than the positive electrode. However, when the integrated charge / discharge electric energy of the secondary battery 2 is Wh2, the characteristic value V2p of the positive electrode is smaller than the characteristic value V2n of the negative electrode, so that the degree of deterioration of the positive electrode is higher than that of the negative electrode by the deterioration degree determination unit 63. Is determined to be high.

その後、図4に示すステップS7において、推定部62における電力量算出部64により、劣化度判定部63によって正極及び負極のうち劣化度合いが高いと判定された方の特性値から二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を算出する。本実施形態では、電力量算出部64により、劣化度合いが高い方の電極の容量維持率から劣化度合いが高い方の電極の充放電可能な電力量を算出し、これに基づいて当該二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を算出する。 After that, in step S7 shown in FIG. 4, in the secondary battery 2, the power amount calculation unit 64 in the estimation unit 62 determines that the degree of deterioration is higher among the positive electrode and the negative electrode by the deterioration degree determination unit 63. Calculate the amount of power that can be charged and discharged. In the present embodiment, the electric energy calculation unit 64 calculates the amount of electric energy that can be charged and discharged from the electrode with the higher degree of deterioration from the capacity retention rate of the electrode with the higher degree of deterioration, and based on this, the secondary battery Calculate the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in 2.

以上のように、電池状態推定装置1により、二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を推定することができる。 As described above, the battery state estimation device 1 can estimate the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2.

次に、本実施形態の電池状態推定装置1における作用効果について、詳述する。
電池状態推定装置1においては、正極特性情報及び負極特性情報が使用履歴情報に対応付けられて記憶されている。そして、二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を推定する際には、当該二次電池2の使用履歴情報に対応する正極特性情報及び負極特性情報を抽出した上で、当該正極特性情報及び負極特性情報に基づいて、二次電池2の動作範囲内において正極の特性値と負極の特性値とを個別に算出する。そして、当該正極の特性値と負極の特性値とから二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を推定する。これにより、使用履歴に応じて互いに異なる正極及び負極の劣化度合いが反映されるため、二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を高精度に推定することができる。
Next, the effects of the battery state estimation device 1 of the present embodiment will be described in detail.
In the battery state estimation device 1, positive electrode characteristic information and negative electrode characteristic information are stored in association with usage history information. Then, when estimating the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2, the positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information corresponding to the usage history information of the secondary battery 2 are extracted, and then the positive electrode characteristic information and the positive electrode characteristic information and the negative electrode characteristic information Based on the negative electrode characteristic information, the characteristic value of the positive electrode and the characteristic value of the negative electrode are individually calculated within the operating range of the secondary battery 2. Then, the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2 is estimated from the characteristic value of the positive electrode and the characteristic value of the negative electrode. As a result, the degree of deterioration of the positive electrode and the negative electrode that differ from each other according to the usage history is reflected, so that the amount of power that can be charged and discharged in the secondary battery 2 can be estimated with high accuracy.

また、本実施形態では、推定部62は、正極の特性値及び負極の特性値から正極及び負極のどちらが劣化度合いが高いか判定する劣化度判定部63と、正極及び負極のうち劣化度合いが高いと判定された方の特性値から二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を算出する電力量算出部64とを有する。二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量に対する影響は、二次電池2における正極及び負極のうち、劣化度合いが高い方の電極が優位となる。従って、推定部62は電力量算出部64において、劣化度判定部63において劣化度合いが高いと判定された電極の特性値から二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を算出することにより、二次電池2における充放電可能な電力量を高精度に推定することができる。 Further, in the present embodiment, the estimation unit 62 includes the deterioration degree determination unit 63 for determining which of the positive electrode and the negative electrode has a higher degree of deterioration from the characteristic values of the positive electrode and the characteristic value of the negative electrode, and the positive electrode and the negative electrode having a higher degree of deterioration.
