Abstract
Battery remaining charging time(RCT)prediction can facilitate charging management and alleviate mileage anxiety for electric vehicles(EVs).Also,it is of great significance to improve EV users'experience.However,the RCT for a lith-ium-ion battery pack in EVs changes with temperature and other battery parameters.This study proposes an elec-trothermal model-based method to accurately predict battery RCT.Firstly,a characteristic battery cell is adopted to represent the battery pack,thus an equivalent circuit model(ECM)of the characteristic battery cell is established to describe the electrical behaviors of a battery pack.Secondly,an equivalent thermal model(ETM)of the battery pack is developed by considering the influence of ambient temperature,thermal management,and battery connec-tors in the battery pack to calculate the temperature which is then fed back to the ECM to realize electrothermal cou-pling.Finally,the RCT prediction method is proposed based on the electrothermal model and validated in the wide temperature range from-20 ℃ to 45 ℃.The experimental results show that the prediction error of the RCT in the whole temperature range is less than 1.5％.
