Abstract

With the widespread use of clean energy in ship electric power systems, marine lithium battery systems are becoming more and more popular. Aiming at the problems between the individual cells in the lithium battery pack, such as inconsistency in voltage, capacity, and internal resistance, the state of charge (SOC) of battery is selected as the equalization control variable, an equalization topology structure based on SOC for battery connecting or bypassing is designed. The equilibrium control strategy fusing model predictive control (MPC) algorithm and time-sequence control algorithm is adopted. The simulation model is built on the MATLAB/Simulink platform, and the different value combinations of two equalization parameters (i.e., equalization period T and number of batteries connected to the battery pack q) were simulated and analyzed. The results show that the designed equalization control strategy can quickly and accurately achieve SOC equalization, by optimizing two key parameters, the equalization accuracy and equalization speed of the marine lithium battery pack can be improved, also the energy loss in the equalization process can be reduced.
