This application claims all benefits accruing under 35 U.S.C. § 119 from China Patent Applications No. 201810122869.1, filed on Feb. 7, 2018 in the China Intellectual Property Office, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference.

FIELD

The present disclosure relates to battery technology and, particularly, to a method and a device for forecasting thermal runaway safety of a battery.

BACKGROUND

Electric vehicles are widely used new-energy vehicles, with a battery as the core energy source of the electric vehicle. A lithium-ion battery (hereinafter referred to as “power battery”) is an important power source for the electric vehicle because of its energy density and cycle life. Because of the limited vehicle space, in order to increase the endurance mileage of the electric vehicle, more of the power battery is needed within the limited vehicle space, and the specific energy of the power battery must be improved. In traffic accidents, the thermal runaway energy released by a power battery with high specific energy is more concentrated. Thus, it is necessary to consider the thermal runaway safety of the power battery with high specific energy when designing the power battery with high specific energy.

Currently, in safety designs, the thermal stability test of the material, the thermal stability test of the electrode plates, and the thermal runaway property test of the full or complete battery are generally carried out. However, the thermal stability tests of materials and electrode plates usually can only be used for qualitative analysis and cannot directly reflect the thermal runaway property of the full battery. Thus, in the safety design of the power battery, it is necessary to assemble the full battery before carrying out the thermal runaway property experiment, so as to accurately judge the thermal runaway safety of the power battery.

In Chinese patent application number 201410470610.8, a modeling method for the thermal runaway of lithium ion batteries aims to provide an important basis for extending the application range of lithium ion batteries in extreme, high temperature conditions. The reaction kinetic parameters must be calibrated by the thermal runaway data of the cells. This reverse calibration method, however, needs a full battery experiment. In the safety design of the power battery, it cannot effectively reduce the amount of experiments and improve the efficiency of research and development.

What is needed, therefore, is to provide a method and a device for forecasting thermal runaway safety of a full battery.

Referring to FIG. 1, one embodiment of a method for forecasting thermal runaway safety of a full battery is disclosed. The method includes:

step S10, obtaining a self heat generation onset temperature T₀ of a first power battery;

step S20, obtaining a maximum temperature T_max of thermal runaway of the first power battery based on the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery, and calculating a maximum temperature rise ΔT according to the maximum temperature T_max and the self heat generation onset temperature T₀; and

step S30, judging the thermal runaway safety of the first power battery by the relationship between the self heat generation onset temperature T₀ and the maximum temperature rise ΔT.

In step S10, the first power battery can be a half cell which is used to make a full battery. Each of the plurality of first power batteries includes a plurality of first component materials, and the plurality of first component materials can be a cathode electrode plate, an anode electrode plate, a separator, and an electrolyte. The self heat generation onset temperature T₀ of the first power battery may be different when the materials used for making the first power battery are different. The self heat generation onset temperature T₀ of the first power battery can be the lowest temperature of the thermal runaway reaction of the first power battery.

For example, the first power battery can have a plurality of thermal runaway reactions during the thermal runaway. The thermal runaway reaction can be a solid electrolyte interface film decomposition reaction, a reaction between the anode electrode and the electrolyte of the second power battery, an anode solid electrolyte interface film regenerating reaction of the second power battery, an anode electrode complete decomposition reaction of the second power battery, an cathode electrode first decomposition reaction of the second power battery, an cathode electrode second decomposition reaction of the second power battery, a separator melting reaction of the second power battery, an electrolyte decomposition reaction of the second power battery, and the cathode electrode and the anode electrode mixed contact reaction of the second power battery. Each of the plurality of thermal runaway reactions has a lowest or minimum temperature reached, thus, the first power battery can have a plurality of lowest temperatures. In one embodiment, the minimum or lowest of the plurality of lowest temperatures is used as the self heat generation onset temperature T₀ of thermal runaway of the first power battery.

In one embodiment, the self heat generation onset temperature T₀ of the first power battery can be obtained by testing the plurality of first component materials. In one embodiment, the self heat generation onset temperature T₀ of the first power battery can be obtained by look-up tables according to the material of the plurality of first component materials.

In step S20, the maximum temperature T_max of thermal runaway of the first power battery can be the highest or maximum temperature reached of the thermal runaway reaction of the first power battery. The first power battery can have a plurality of thermal runaway reactions during the thermal runaway. Each of the plurality of thermal runaway reactions has a highest temperature, thus, the first power battery can have a plurality of highest temperatures. In one embodiment, the maximum or highest of the plurality of highest temperatures is used as the maximum temperature T_max of thermal runaway of the first power battery.

The self heat generation onset temperature T₀ and the maximum temperature T_max of the first power battery may be different when the materials used for making the first power battery are different. Also, the thermal runaway reaction of the first power battery, which can cause the maximum temperature T_max, may be different when the materials used for making the first power battery are different. The self heat generation onset temperature T₀ should be judged according to the first power battery and the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. The thermal runaway reaction, which can cause the maximum temperature T_max, should also be judged according to the first power battery and the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. In one embodiment, the maximum temperature T_max can be the highest temperature of the anode electrode complete decomposition reaction of the first power battery. In one embodiment, the maximum temperature T_max can be the highest temperature of the separator melting reaction of the first power battery. The maximum temperature rise ΔT is the difference between the maximum temperature T_max and the self heat generation onset temperature T₀.

In step S30, when the self heat generation onset temperature T₀ is a constant, the smaller the maximum temperature rise ΔT or the maximum temperature T_max of the first power battery based on the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery, the better the thermal runaway safety of the full battery produced according to the first power battery. In one embodiment, the thermal runaway safety of the full battery is judged by comparing the maximum temperature T_max with a threshold temperature T_threshold. The threshold temperature can be selected according to the temperature resistant property of the materials used to make the full battery. The threshold temperature is less than or equal to the lowest temperature that the materials used to make the full battery can bear. The threshold temperature can be in a range from about 400° C. to about 600° C. In one embodiment, the threshold temperature is about 500° C.

The method for forecasting thermal runaway safety of the power battery is simple and effective. In the process of thermal runaway reaction, the first power battery may generate a certain amount of heat. When the self heat generation onset temperature T₀ is a constant, the lower the thermal runaway temperature of the first power battery, the better the thermal runaway safety of the full battery. The maximum temperature T_max of the first power battery is obtained according to the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. The maximum temperature rise ΔT is calculated according to the maximum temperature T_max and the self heat generation onset temperature T₀. Since the first power battery is a half cell, the method provided by this disclosure can forecast the thermal runaway safety of the full battery without preparing a full battery.

In one embodiment, the onset temperature T_mix of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction of the first power battery is used as the self heat generation onset temperature T₀. FIG. 2 shows a relationship between the onset temperature T_mix of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction and both the maximum temperature T_max and the maximum temperature rise ΔT of the first power battery. When the materials used for making the first power battery are known, the onset temperature T_mix of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction can be obtained. From FIG. 2, it can be seen that when the onset temperature T_mix of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction is below 480° C., the maximum temperature T_max of the first power battery is substantially constant and in a range from about 820° C. to about 840° C., and the maximum temperature rise ΔT of the first power battery is also substantially constant and in a range from about 730° C. to about 750° C. However, when the onset temperature T_mix of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction is above 480° C., the maximum temperature T_max of the first power battery suddenly falls and is stable at about 500° C., and the maximum temperature rise ΔT of the first power battery also suddenly falls and is stable at about 410° C. Thus, in order to essentially improve the thermal runaway safety of the first power battery and reduce the maximum temperature rise ΔT of the first power battery, it is necessary to control the onset temperature T_mix of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction of the first power battery to be above 480° C.

The method provided by this disclosure can forecast the thermal runaway safety of the full battery without preparing a full battery. The method for forecasting the thermal runaway safety of the power battery can simplify the conventional safety design process of the power battery by omitting the step of assembling the full battery. Thus, the research and development cycle of the power battery is shortened, the design and development cost is reduced, and the design and development efficiency is improved. The method for forecasting the thermal runaway safety of the power battery is beneficial to the safety design of the power battery in the process of power battery research, development and manufacture.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery of step S20 can be established by the following steps:

step S210, assembling a plurality of second power batteries, each of the plurality of second power batteries includes a plurality of second component materials, and the plurality of second component materials can be a cathode electrode plate, an anode electrode plate, a separator, and an electrolyte;

step S220, performing a charging test and a discharging test on each of the plurality of second power batteries;

step S230, obtaining a plurality of testing component materials by disassembling some of the plurality of second power batteries in a fully charged state and disassembling others of the plurality of second power batteries in a completely discharged state, and the plurality of testing component materials can be a fully charged cathode electrode plate, a completely discharged cathode electrode plate, a fully charged anode electrode plate, a completely discharged anode electrode plate, the separator, and the electrolyte;

step S240, obtaining a thermal runaway reaction and a plurality of parameters of the thermal runaway reaction of each of the plurality of testing component materials by performing a differential scanning calorimetry test on each of the plurality of testing component materials; and

step S250, establishing the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery according to the reaction kinetics equation, the mass conservation equation, the energy conservation equation, and the plurality of parameters of the thermal runaway reaction.

In step S210, the second power battery can be the same as the first power battery and can be a half cell or a coin cell. The second power battery is scanning calorimetry tested and used for establishing the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. The first power battery is calculated according to the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery so that the thermal runaway safety of the full battery produced according to the first power battery can be forecasted without preparing the full battery.

The materials of the second power battery can be selected according to the development requirement of the second power battery. The cathode material, the anode material, the electrolyte material, the separator material, and the binder material of the second power battery can be selected before assembling the plurality of second power batteries. The second power battery is a power battery used in the experiment. The second power battery can be a half cell or a coin cell. Different second power batteries can be made by selecting different materials. The parameters of the thermal runaway reaction can be obtained by testing the plurality of second power batteries made of different materials. The parameters of the thermal runaway reaction can be used for establishing the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery.

For example, the cathode material of the second power battery is selected first and the cathode electrode plate is made according to the ratio requirement of each of the plurality of second power batteries. The cathode material of the second power battery is used as the cathode electrode, the lithium sheet is used as the anode electrode. One coin cell is made by the cathode electrode, the anode electrode, and some electrolyte and used as the second power battery. For another example, the anode material of the second power battery is used as the cathode electrode, the lithium sheet is used as the anode electrode. Another coin cell is made by the cathode electrode, the anode electrode, and some electrolyte and used as the second power battery.

In step S220, a plurality of fully charged second power batteries can be obtained by performing a charging test on the plurality of second power batteries, and a plurality of completely discharged second power batteries can be obtained by performing a discharging test on the plurality of second power batteries. Charging and discharging of each of the plurality of second power batteries can be tested many times.

In step S230, the fully charged cathode electrode plate and the fully charged anode electrode plate can be obtained by disassembling one of the plurality of fully charged second power batteries; and the completely discharged cathode electrode plate and the completely discharged anode electrode plate can be obtained by disassembling one of the plurality of completely discharged second power batteries.

In step S240, the thermal runaway reaction of each of the plurality of testing component materials can be obtained by the differential scanning calorimetry test results. The important parameters of the thermal runaway reaction of each of the plurality of testing component materials can also be obtained by the differential scanning calorimetry test results. For example, the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film decomposition reaction and anode electrode complete decomposition reaction can take place in the anode electrode plate. For another example, the cathode electrode first decomposition reaction can take place in the cathode electrode plate. For another example, the separator melting reaction can take place in the separator. All the thermal runaway reactions of the plurality of testing component materials can be obtained by the differential scanning calorimetry test results. All the thermal runaway reactions of the plurality of testing component materials can also be obtained by other method.

In step S250, in one embodiment, the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery satisfies formula (1):

$\begin{array}{cc}T=\underset{t}{\int }\frac{\mathrm{dT}}{\mathrm{dt}}\mathrm{dt}+T_0& \left(1\right)\end{array}$

wherein, T represents the temperature of the second power battery, T₀ represents the self heat generation onset temperature of the second power battery, T₀ is equal to the minimum of the onset temperatures T_onset,x of all the thermal runaway reactions, namely T₀=min{T_onset,x}, and

$\frac{\mathrm{dT}}{\mathrm{dt}}$

represents the temperature rise rate of the second power battery.

In one embodiment, the temperature rise rate

$\frac{\mathrm{dT}}{\mathrm{dt}}$

of the second power battery satisfies formula (2):

$\begin{array}{cc}\frac{\mathrm{dT}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{Q}{M·C_p}& \left(2\right)\end{array}$

wherein, represents the total instantaneous heat release power of all the thermal runaway reactions of the second power battery, M represents the mass of the second power battery, and C_p represents the specific heat capacity of the second power battery.

The total instantaneous heat release power of all the thermal runaway reactions of the second power battery satisfies formula (3):

$\begin{array}{cc}Q=\sum _xQ_x+Q_{\mathrm{mix}}& \left(3\right)\end{array}$

wherein, _x represents the instantaneous heat release power of one thermal runaway reaction of the second power battery, x represents the number of all thermal runaway reactions, and _mix represents the heat release power of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction of the full battery planned to be prepared or made.

The relationship between the temperature rise rate of the second power battery and the temperature of the second power battery is fitted according to the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery to obtain a fitting curve. In one embodiment, the relationship between the temperature rise rate of the second power battery and the temperature of the second power battery is also tested to obtain a tested curve. FIG. 3 shows both the fitting curve and the tested curve. From FIG. 3, it can be seen that the fitting curve and the tested curve are substantially coincident with each other. Thus, the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery has good precision. The method for forecasting thermal runaway safety of a full battery can forecast the thermal runaway properties of the full battery based on the thermal runaway reaction kinetic property of the material used for making the power battery.

The method for forecasting thermal runaway safety of a full battery is based on the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. The thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery is based on the superposition principle of the thermal runaway reactions. In the thermal runaway reaction kinetic test of the plurality of testing component materials of the second power battery, the scanning calorimetry test is performed at a constant rate, and a plurality of heat release characteristic curves are obtained and used for fitting the reaction kinetic parameters. The in situ effect of the thermal runaway reaction is considered in all the data and parameters of the thermal runaway reaction kinetic test. All the important exothermic reactions of the full battery to be prepared or made are considered in establishing the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. The heat release of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction is considered in establishing the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. The heat release of the cathode electrode and anode electrode mixed contact reaction includes both the internal short circuit heat release and the redox reaction heat release of the cathode electrode and anode electrode.

In one embodiment of the step S210, the cathode material of the cathode electrode plate and the anode material of the anode electrode plate of the second power battery are selected according to the formula (4)

$\begin{array}{cc}{\mathrm{SE}}_{\mathrm{cell}}=\frac{{\mathrm{SC}}_{\mathrm{ca}}}{m_{\mathrm{am}}\text{/}m_{\mathrm{ca}}+1}\times V_{\mathrm{rate}}\times {\zeta }_{\mathrm{act}}\times {\eta }_{\mathrm{act}}& \left(4\right)\end{array}$

wherein SE_cell represents the specific energy of the second power battery, SC_ca represents the specific capacity of the cathode material of the cathode electrode plate, m_an/m_ca represents the mass ratio of the anode material and the cathode material, V_rate represents the design nominal voltage of the second power battery, ζ_act represents the mass percentage between the active material of the cathode material and the second power battery, and η_act represents the average utilization of the active material of the cathode material.

In one embodiment, the total capacity of the anode electrode plate is defined as C_an, and C_an=SC_an·m_an. The total capacity of the cathode electrode plate is defined as C_ca, and C_ca=SC_ca·m_ca. The ratio κ between the total capacity C_an of the anode electrode plate and the total capacity C_ca of the cathode electrode plate should be greater than 1. The ratio κ can be in a range from about 1.05 to about 1.2. SC_an represents the specific capacity of the anode material of the anode electrode plate, SC_ca represents the specific capacity of the cathode material of the cathode electrode plate, m_an represents the mass of the anode material, and m_ca represents the mass of the cathode material.

Both the cathode electrode plate and the anode electrode plate are used as the cathode electrode of the half cell, and the lithium sheet is used as the anode electrode of the half cell. One coin cell is made by the cathode electrode, the anode electrode, and some electrolyte. The electrolyte used in the half cell is the same as the electrolyte used in the full battery. The battery formation is performed after assembling the coin cell, so that the interface protection membrane is formed on the surface of both the cathode electrode plate and the anode electrode plate. The charge/discharge cycle is performed on the coin cell so that both the cathode electrode plate and the anode electrode plate are respectively in fully charged state and in completely discharged state. The coin cell is disassembled after the charge/discharge cycle. Thus, the fully charged cathode electrode plate, the completely discharged cathode electrode plate, the fully charged anode electrode plate, and the completely discharged anode electrode plate are obtained. The coin cell is disassembled in a glovebox filled with argon gas. The glovebox (or glove box) is a sealed container that is designed to allow one to manipulate objects where a separate atmosphere is desired. Built into the sides of the glovebox are gloves arranged in such a way that the user can place their hands into the gloves and perform tasks inside the box without breaking containment. All the fully charged cathode electrode plate, the completely discharged cathode electrode plate, the fully charged anode electrode plate, and the completely discharged anode electrode plate are sealed in the crucible in the glove box and used as the sample of the differential scanning calorimeter. Furthermore, the electrolyte and separator are obtained by disassembling the coin cell is in the glove box and directly sealed in the crucible in the glove box. Thus, the in situ effect is kept.

In one embodiment, the step S240 includes the following steps:

step S241, obtaining N groups of differential scanning calorimetry test results by performing differential scanning calorimetry tests N times at different constant temperature rise scanning rates on each of the plurality of testing component materials of the second power battery, wherein N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 5;

step S242, obtaining a thermal runaway reaction and a plurality of parameters of the thermal runaway reaction of each of the plurality of testing component materials by the N groups of differential scanning calorimetry test results.

In one embodiment of step S241, the differential scanning calorimetry test includes the following steps:

step S2411, selecting one of the plurality of testing component materials of the second power battery and connecting the one of the plurality of testing component materials to the differential scanning calorimeter;

step S2412, testing once by setting the constant temperature rise scanning rate β_i and recording one group of differential scanning calorimetry test results; and

step S2413, repeating the step S2412 N times, wherein N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 5, and the constant temperature rise scanning rates are different in the N times tests.

In one embodiment of step S2412 and step S2413, the constant temperature rise scanning rates β_i can be 0.1° C./min, 0.2° C./min, 0.5° C./min, 1° C./min, 2° C./min, 5° C./min, 10° C./min, 15° C./min, 20° C./min. In one embodiment, five groups of differential scanning calorimetry test results are obtained and includes a first group test results, a second group test results, a third group test results, a fourth group test results, and a fifth group test results. Each group test results include a plurality of test results. For example, the first group test results include a first group first time test result, a first group second time test result, a first group third time test result, and so on.

In one embodiment of step S242, the thermal runaway reaction can be a solid electrolyte interface film decomposition reaction, a reaction between the anode electrode and the electrolyte of the second power battery, an anode solid electrolyte interface film regenerating reaction of the second power battery, an anode electrode complete decomposition reaction of the second power battery, an cathode electrode first decomposition reaction of the second power battery, an cathode electrode second decomposition reaction of the second power battery, a separator melting reaction of the second power battery, an electrolyte decomposition reaction of the second power battery, and the cathode electrode and the anode electrode mixed contact reaction of the second power battery. The differential scanning calorimetry test results can include an instantaneous heat release power _y, a temperature curve T_y, and a testing time t_y.

The differential scanning calorimetry tests are performed on each of the fully charged cathode electrode plate, the completely discharged cathode electrode plate, the fully charged anode electrode plate, and the completely discharged anode electrode plate. The differential scanning calorimetry tests are also performed on each of the separator, the electrolyte, the binder, and other components, that are planned to be used in the second power battery. For example, the fully charged cathode electrode plate is located on the differential scanning calorimeter, and the differential scanning calorimetry test is performed on the fully charged cathode electrode plate at the constant temperature rise scanning rate β_i. The important exothermic reactions x of the testing component materials at high temperature are obtained by analyzing the N groups of differential scanning calorimetry test results. The unimportant exothermic reactions are not considered in the following step of establishing the thermal runaway reaction kinetic model of the power battery. The testing component materials, which are differential scanning calorimetry tested, are defined as sample y. Each sample y may have many important exothermic reactions x. Thus, subscripts of the important exothermic reactions x of the testing component materials y can be x=y_1, x=y_2, x=y_3 and so on. For example, the subscript of the fully charged cathode electrode plate is x=y_1_100%, and subscript of the completely discharged cathode electrode plate is x=y_1_0%.

In one embodiment, the important exothermic reactions x of the testing component materials at high temperature are obtained and shown in Table 1 below.
