Abstract:

This study proposes a low-temperature rapid start-up scheme for mobile energy storage containers to address the problem of decreased emergency support capabilities caused by the long cold start time and severe performance degradation of mobile energy storage container batteries in high-altitude and cold environments. The capacity ratio and low-temperature start-up battery group were calculated based on the capacity requirements of the energy storage container battery system, temperature boundary conditions, and low-temperature start-up time requirements. A standard battery module model and a liquid preheating structure were established. An orthogonal experiment method was used to explore the influence of various factors in the preheating structure on the heating performance of the battery system, and the parameters were optimized. A preheating system with closed-loop liquid preheating coupled with heating-film preheating was designed, and the preheating effect of closed-loop preheating was investigated. The results show that in an environment with a temperature of -20 ℃, the energy storage container can preheat the energy storage battery to above 5 ℃ within 10 minutes.

Key words: energy storage container, lithium-ion battery, low-temperature preheating, closed-loop thermal coupling
