Battery control device
View Patent ↗A battery control device calculates at least one of an allowable current and an allowable power during charge/discharge of a battery from a no-load voltage and an internal resistance of the battery, and corrects at least one of the no-load voltage and the internal resistance according to the states of charge/discharge of the battery.
1. A battery control device comprising:
a temperature acquisition portion which obtains a temperature of the battery;
a State of Change (SOC) calculation portion which calculates SOC of the battery;
an internal resistance calculation portion which calculates an internal resistance of the battery;
an intercept voltage calculation portion which calculates, based on the temperature obtained by the temperature acquisition portion and the SOC calculated by the SOC calculation portion, an intercept voltage which corresponds to an intercept to a voltage axis of a graph linearly representing a relation between current and voltage during charge/discharge of the battery, and is decreased by as much as the temperature and the SOC of an open voltage of the battery; and
an allowable value calculation portion which calculates at least one of allowable current and allowable power during charge/discharge of the battery, based on the intercept voltage calculated by the intercept voltage calculation portion and the internal resistance calculated by the internal resistance calculation portion.
2. The battery control device according to claim 1 , wherein the intercept voltage calculation portion refers to previously stored map information and calculates the intercept voltage corresponding to the temperature and the SOC.
3. The battery control device according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a current acquisition portion which obtains a charge/discharge current of the battery;
a time measurement portion which measures a charge/discharge time of the battery;
an internal resistance calculation portion which calculates the internal resistance of the battery; and
a correction portion which corrects the internal resistance, calculated by the internal resistance calculation portion, based on the charge/discharge time measured by the time measurement portion and the charge/discharge current obtained by the current acquisition portion.
4. The battery control device according to claim 3 , further comprising a temperature acquisition portion which obtains a temperature of the battery,
wherein the correction portion does not correct the internal resistance when the temperature obtained by the temperature acquisition portion is less than a predetermined value.
5. The battery control device according to claim 3 , wherein the correction portion refers to the previously stored map information and obtains a correction value of the internal resistance corresponding to the charge/discharge time and the charge/discharge current.
6. The battery control device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a current acquisition portion which determines a charge/discharge current of the battery;
a time measurement portion which measures a charge/discharge time of the battery; and
a correction portion which determines a correction coefficient to the internal resistance based on the charge/discharge time measured by the time measurement portion and the charge/discharge current obtained by the current acquisition portion and corrects the internal resistance calculated by the internal resistance calculation portion, using the correction coefficient,
wherein the allowable value calculation portion calculates at least one of the allowable current and the allowable power based on the intercept voltage calculated by the intercept voltage calculation portion and the internal resistance calculated by the internal resistance calculation portion and corrected by the correction portion.
7. The battery control device according to claim 6 , further comprising a temperature acquisition portion which obtains a temperature of the battery,
wherein the correction portion does not correct the internal resistance when the temperature obtained by the temperature acquisition portion is less than a predetermined value.
8. The battery control device according to claim 6 , wherein the correction portion refers to previously stored map information and determines the correction coefficient corresponding to the charge/discharge time and the charge/discharge current.
