(59) The present disclosure is suitable for the balance control of the lithium iron phosphate battery in the absence of a model, and realizes the active balance of the battery by using a batch control algorithm according to the repeated characteristics of the battery charging and discharging. The present disclosure defines a balance current ratio, and uses the balance current ratio as an index to perform open-loop balance on the lithium iron phosphate battery in the time direction, and performs closed-loop update on the balance target in the batch direction. The method of the present disclosure may realize efficient active balance of the battery pack without modeling the lithium iron phosphate battery. Specifically, a method for active balance control of a battery pack according to the present disclosure includes implementation steps S1, S2, S3, and S4.

(60) At S1, a reference balance current ratio of a battery cell to a battery pack in each batch is calculated, where the batch includes a charging batch, a working batch, and a resting batch.

(61) In the present disclosure, the balance current ratio BCR.sub.j(k) of the battery cell j at a moment k is defined as:
BCR.sub.j(k)=Σ.sub.l=0.sup.l=ki(l)/[Σ.sub.l=0.sup.l=kI(l)],

(62) where i.sub.j(l) represents an balance current of the battery cell j at a moment l, and I(l) represents a current of the battery packet at a moment l. In practical applications, the measurement of the balance current is difficult. In this case, a reference value provided in a data sheet may be used instead.

(63) In the present disclosure, a process of calculating a theoretical optimal solution of the reference balance current ratio includes steps S101, S102, and S103.

(64) At S101, a number of battery strings in the battery pack is calculated.

(65) At S102, a state of health of each battery cell in the battery pack is calculated by using the following formula:
SoH=Q/Q.sub.rated,

(66) where SoH represents the state of health of the battery cell, Q represents a current capacity of the battery cell, and Q.sub.rated represents a standard capacity of the battery cell; and

(67) At S103, a theoretical optimal solution of a reference balance current ratio of each battery cell to the battery pack is calculated according to the number of battery strings in the battery pack and the state of health of each battery cell by using the following formula:

(68) ${BCR}_{j}^{*} = \frac{N .Math. {SoH}_{j}}{{.Math.}_{j = 1}^{N} {SoH}_{j}} - 1,$

(69) where BCR.sub.j* represents the theoretical optimal solution of the reference balance current ratio of the j-th battery cell, N represents the number of battery strings in the battery pack, and SoH.sub.j represents the state of health of the j-th battery cell.

(70) In practical applications, there is no need to calculate the theoretical optimal solution of the reference balance current ratio, and steps S101-S103 are only used to define the theoretical optimal solution of the reference balance current. In the practical application of the present disclosure, the reference balance current ratio of the battery cell and the battery pack is calculated by using an inter-batch iteration method, that is, step S1 specifically includes steps S111, S112, S113, and S114.

(71) At S111, sampling points of M moments are taken, and an average current I.sub.avg(M,k) of the battery cell at the moment k is calculated by using the following formula:
I.sub.avg(M,k)=Σ.sub.l=k−M+1.sup.l=kI(l)/M.

(72) At S112, the state of the battery pack is sorted into a charging state, a working state, and a resting state according to the calculated average current.

(73) Step S112 is specifically as follows:

(74) when the average current is greater than 0, determining that the state of the battery pack is the charging state;

(75) when the average current is less than 0, determining that the state of the battery pack is the working state; and

(76) when the average current is equal to 0, determining that the state of the battery pack is the resting state.

(77) At S113, the batch of the battery pack is determined according to a switching condition of the state of the battery pack.

(78) Step S113 is specifically as follows:

(79) if the state of the battery pack is transitioned from other state to the working state at a first moment, determining that the first moment is a start moment of the working batch;

(80) if the state of the battery pack is transitioned from the working state to other state at a second moment, determining that the second moment is an end moment of the working batch;

(81) if the state of the battery pack is transitioned from other state to the charging state at a third moment, determining that the third moment is a start moment of the charging batch;

(82) if the state of the battery pack is transitioned from the charging state to other state at a fourth moment, determining that the fourth moment is an end moment of the charging batch;

(83) if the state of the battery pack is transitioned from other state to the resting state at a fifth moment, determining that the fifth moment is a start moment of the resting batch; and

(84) if the state of the battery pack is transitioned from the resting state to other state at a sixth moment, determining that the sixth moment is an end moment of the resting batch.

(85) At S114, the reference balance current ratio of the battery cell to the battery pack is calculated by using the inter-batch iteration method according to the batch of the battery pack.

(86) A formula for calculating a convergence calculation method of the reference balance current ratio is:
BCR.sub.s+1.sup.ref=BCR.sub.s.sup.ref+γG.sup.−1[V.sub.s*(t.sub.1)−V.sub.s(t.sub.1)]

(87) where BCR.sub.s+1.sup.ref represents a vector consisting of the reference balance current ratio of each battery cell in the (S+1)-th batch, BCR.sub.s.sup.ref represents a vector consisting of the reference balance current ratio (e.g., a reference balance current ratio BCR.sub.j.sup.ref of the j-th battery cell) of each battery cell in the S-th batch. In this embodiment, an initial value of the first batch is assigned 0, γ=1, and

(88) $\overline{G} = I .Math. \max \frac{dSoC}{dOCV} + δ,$
where I represents a unit matrix, SoC represents a percentage of the remaining battery capacity of the battery cell, OCV represents a battery open-circuit voltage at current SoC, δ is a positive real number representing a margin, V.sub.s*(t.sub.1) represents an N-dimensional vector consisting of an average voltage of the battery pack at a moment t.sub.1 of the S batch, V.sub.s*(t.sub.1) represents a voltage vector of the battery pack at a moment t.sub.1 of the S batch, and t.sub.1 refers to the moment when the current batch ends.

(89) Based on the calculation formula of the above convergence calculation method, when a condition s.fwdarw.∞ is satisfied, BCR.sub.s.sup.ref is converged to BCR* (i.e., the theoretical optimal solution of the reference balance current ratio).

(90) Moreover, when the percentage (i.e., SoC) of remaining capacity of the battery cell is a known condition, the reference balance current ratio of the present disclosure may be calculated by using the following formula:
BCR.sub.s+1.sup.ref=BCR.sub.s.sup.ref+I[SoC.sub.s*(t.sub.1)−SoC.sub.s(t.sub.1)].

(91) where SoC.sub.s*(t.sub.1) represents a vector consisting of the average values of SoC of the battery cell at a moment t.sub.1 of the S batch, and SoC.sub.s*(t.sub.1) represents a vector consisting of SoC of the battery cell at a moment t.sub.1 of the S batch.

(92) In addition, in the step of calculating a reference balance current ratio of a battery cell to a battery pack by using an inter-batch iteration method in the present disclosure, an update strategy of the reference balance current ratio may also be implemented by using the following formula:
BCR.sub.s+1.sup.ref=BCR.sub.s.sup.ref+γG.sup.−1[V.sub.s*(t.sub.1)−V.sub.s(t.sub.1)],

(93) where BCR.sup.s represents an actual balance current ratio of the s batch.

(94) At S2, an actual balance current ratio of the battery cell to the battery pack at each moment in any batch is calculated by using the following formula:
BCR(k)=Σ.sub.l=0.sup.l=ki(l)/[Σ.sub.l=0.sup.l=kI(l)],

(95) where i(l) represents an balance current of the battery cell at a moment l, and I(l) represents a current of the battery packet at a moment l.

(96) At S3, a preset tracking algorithm is executed to allow the actual balance current ratio to track the reference balance current ratio of the corresponding batch in real time.

(97) Step S3 is specifically as follows: calculating a tracking error of the actual balance current ratio of the battery cell and the reference balance current ratio by using the following formula:
E.sup.BCR(k)=BCR.sup.ref−BCR(k).

(98) where E.sup.BCR(k) represents the tracking error of the actual balance current ratio of the battery cell and the reference balance current ratio at a moment k, BCR.sup.ref represents the reference balance current ratio of the battery cell, and BCR(k) represents an actual balance current ratio of the battery cell to the battery pack at the moment k.

(99) At S4, balance control is performed on the battery pack according to a tracking result.

(100) Step S4 is specifically as follows:

(101) determining whether the battery pack is in a platform region, and if yes, performing balance control on the battery pack by using a BCR-based balance method; otherwise, performing balance control on the battery pack by using a voltage-based balance method.

(102) The step of determining whether the battery pack is in a platform region comprises:

(103) determining whether a decision condition

(104) $\frac{dOCV}{dSoC} < 2 .Math. res$
is established, and if yes, the battery pack is in the platform region; otherwise, the battery pack is not in the platform region, where res represents a minimum effective resolution of voltage sampling.

(105) The step of performing balance control on the battery pack by using a BCR-based balance method comprises:

(106) when the battery pack is in the working state, charging the battery cell with a minimum tracking error value; and

(107) when the battery pack is in the charging state, discharging the battery cell with the minimum tracking error value (rather than the battery cell with a minimum absolute value). For example, the tracking error values of four battery cells are calculated as [−1, −0.01, 0.001, 0.2], discharge treatment is performed on the battery cell with the tracking error value of −1 by the present disclosure.

(108) The step of performing balance control on the battery pack by using a voltage-based balance method comprises:

(109) when the battery pack is in the working state, charging the battery cell with a lowest battery voltage; and

(110) when the battery pack is in the charging state, discharging the battery cell a the highest battery voltage.

(111) The above are detailed descriptions of the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments.
