BATTERY CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD OF FUEL CELL VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17981882 titled 'BATTERY CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD OF FUEL CELL VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a battery control system and method for a fuel cell vehicle. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The system includes a battery, a fuel cell, and a controller.
  • The battery provides driving energy for the vehicle.
  • The fuel cell can provide driving energy for the vehicle or charge the battery.
  • The controller estimates the deterioration of the fuel cell.
  • Based on the estimated deterioration, the controller calculates the change rate in the State of Charge (SOC) value of the battery.
  • The controller adjusts the charge control factor or discharge control factor of the battery according to the calculated change rate in the SOC value.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be applied in fuel cell vehicles to optimize the use of the battery and fuel cell for driving energy.
  • It can be used in electric vehicles with fuel cell range extenders to efficiently manage the battery and fuel cell operation.

Problems Solved:

  • The system addresses the issue of fuel cell deterioration by estimating the degree of deterioration and adjusting the battery control factors accordingly.
  • It helps in maximizing the overall efficiency and lifespan of the fuel cell system.

Benefits:

  • By adjusting the charge and discharge control factors, the system can optimize the use of the battery and fuel cell, leading to improved energy efficiency.
  • The estimation of fuel cell deterioration helps in proactive maintenance and prolonging the lifespan of the fuel cell system.
  • The technology enables better management of the energy sources in fuel cell vehicles, enhancing their overall performance and reliability.


Original Abstract Submitted

A battery control system and method of a fuel cell vehicle includes a battery, a fuel cell, and a controller. The battery provides driving energy of a vehicle. The fuel cell provides the driving energy of the vehicle or charging the battery. The controller estimates a degree of deterioration of the fuel cell, derive a change rate in an SOC value of the battery based on the degree of deterioration of the fuel cell, and change a charge control factor or a discharge control factor of the battery according to the derived change rate in the SOC value of the battery.
