摘要
The least cell state-of-charge (SOC) in a battery pack directly determines the left runtime of the total battery pack. Hence, an equalizing strategy is often needed to balance the battery cells, especially for lithium-ion batteries. In this paper, it is shown that this can be achieved with a simple equalizing circuit, which only needs a power semiconductor switch and an inductor for each cell. To avoid the intensive requirement on the processing power of existing control algorithms, two simple control schemes are proposed to obtain better modular performance. First, the operating modes under different switching states are illustrated with a four-cell battery module. After that, the required duty cycles to operate the switches are obtained by comparing the SOC of the relevant cells and the average SOC of all cells. By fixing the maximum of the duty cycle of the highest SOC cell, the inductor can be easily designed and the rated currents of switches and cells can also be regulated. Moreover, the multilayer and modular concept is developed to speed up the balancing process and modularize the design of equalizing circuits. Finally, experiments were completed to demonstrate the proposed scheme.
