Abstract
Description
そして、通常、このような燃料電池車両は、燃料電池(以下、FCともいう。)とバッテリとの電圧を調整するために、FC又はバッテリの分岐にDC/DCコンバータを有している。
このようなことから、特許文献1には、FCとバッテリとの間でDC/DCコンバータによる電圧変換を行うことなく、FCとバッテリとをリレーボックスを介して並列に直接接続する構成が開示されている。また、特許文献2にも、FCとバッテリとの間にDC/DCコンバータを必要としない構成が開示されている。
また、特許文献2には、そのような方策が開示されているものの、簡易な方策として、FCの出力電圧がバッテリの許容上限電圧(過充電を防止するような電圧)よりも高い場合にFCの発電運転を停止する又はFCをバッテリから切り離す等の方策が有る。
本発明の目的は、バッテリの過充電を防止しつつFCの劣化を抑制することである。
(1)及び(5)の態様の発明によれば、DC/DCコンバータを介さないで燃料電池とバッテリとを接続した構成とした場合でも、車両又は車両用電力供給制御装置は、バッテリの充電量が予め設定されたしきい値以上であるときに燃料電池とモータ及びバッテリとの接続を遮断することで、バッテリの過充電を防止できる。さらに、(1)の態様の発明によれば、車両又は車両用電力供給制御装置は、バッテリの充電量が予め設定されたしきい値以上であるときにも燃料電池による発電を行うことで、燃料電池の起動及び停止の頻度を少なくして燃料電池の劣化を抑制できる。
本実施形態では、車両用電力供給制御装置を搭載する燃料電池車両を挙げている。
図1に示すように、燃料電池車両1は、燃料電池(以下、FCともいう。)システム10、バッテリパック20、インバータ2、モータ3、及び制御装置30を有している。
ファン13は、FCスタック11の発電用(発電に使う空気を取り込むため)及び冷却用のファンである。ファン駆動部12は、FCスタック11からの供給電力によってこのファン13を駆動する。
FET14は、FCシステム10へのインバータ2(よって、モータ3も含む)及びバッテリパック20の接続及びその接続の遮断を可能にするスイッチ部となる。
インバータ2は、制御装置30によって制御され、FCシステム10又はバッテリパック20からの供給電力によって、駆動輪4を駆動するモータ3を駆動する。このモータ3の駆動によって、車両は走行する。
ここで、図2に示すように、イニシャルモードM1では、FCスタック11を停止状態にし、かつFET(燃料電池FETともいう。)14をOFFにしている。また、ノーマルモードM2では、FCスタック11を運転状態にし、かつFET14をONにしている。また、燃料電池停止モードM3では、FCスタック11を停止状態にし、かつFET14をOFFにしている。また、アイドリングモードM4では、FCスタック11を運転状態にし、かつFET14をOFFにしている。
ここで、低レベル判定用しきい値SOCLは、実験的、経験的、又は理論的に予め設定された値である。
図3に示すように、制御装置30は、先ずステップS1では、バッテリSOCが低レベル判定用しきい値SOCL未満であるか否かを判定する。制御装置30は、バッテリSOCが低レベル判定用しきい値SOCL未満であると判定すると(バッテリSOC<SOCL)、ステップS5に進む。また、制御装置30は、バッテリSOCが低レベル判定用しきい値SOCL以上であると判定すると(バッテリSOC≧SOCL)、ステップS2に進む。
ステップS5では、制御装置30は、車両電源がONになっているか否かを判定する。制御装置30は、車両電源がONになっていると判定すると、ステップS6に進む。また、制御装置30は、車両電源がONになっていないと判定すると、当該図3に示す処理を終了する。
ステップS8では、制御装置30は、車両電源がONになっているか否かを判定する。制御装置30は、車両電源がONになっていると判定すると、ステップS9に進む。また、制御装置30は、車両電源がONになっていないと判定すると、当該図3に示す処理を終了する。
ここで、以上のステップS9乃至ステップS12の処理は、アイドリングモードM4における処理に相当する。
次に、車両における動作、作用等について説明する。
制御装置30は、イニシャルモード中に、バッテリSOCが低レベル判定用しきい値SOCL未満になると(バッテリSOC<SOCL)、FCスタック11を起動させ、かつFET14をONにしてFCスタック11とバッテリパック20及びインバータ2とを接続し、ノーマルモードM2に遷移する。
そして、制御装置30は、このノーマルモード中に、バッテリSOCが高レベル判定用しきい値SOCH以上になると(バッテリSOC≧SOCH)、FCスタック11を運転状態に維持したまま、FET14をOFFにしてFCスタック11をバッテリパック20及びインバータ2から切り離し、アイドリングモードM4に遷移する。
本実施形態では、燃料電池車両1は、DC/DCコンバータを介さないでFCスタック11とバッテリパック20とを接続した構成とした場合でも、バッテリSOCが高レベル判定用しきい値SOCH以上であるときには、アイドリングモードM4によって、FCスタック11とバッテリパック20及びモータ3(具体的にはインバータ2)との接続を遮断している。これによって、本実施形態では、燃料電池車両1は、バッテリ21の過充電を防止できる。
ここで、図4は、水素燃料電池の構造例を示す図である。また、図5は、一般的な燃料電池における電圧と電力との関係を示す図である。
先ず、燃料電池システムにおける電気化学反応と、それに付随する水の生成について説明する。
H2 → 2H+ + 2e- ・・・(1)
1/2O2 + 2H+ + 2e- → H2O ・・・(2)
このようにして生成された水分の一部は、濃度拡散によってカソード極52からアノード極51へと移動する。
以上のように、電位がより高い状態にある燃料電池の停止は、当該燃料電池の劣化に大きく影響する。そのため、燃料電池の停止及び再起動のサイクル(頻度)は、燃料電池の劣化を抑制するためには少ないことが望ましい。
このようなことから、本実施形態では、FET14をOFFにしてFCスタック11とバッテリパック20及びモータ3(具体的にはインバータ2)との接続を遮断した後に経過時間判定用しきい値t1相当の時間が経過し、かつバッテリSOCが中レベル判定用しきい値SOCM以上であるときには、アイドリングモードM4から燃料電池停止モードM3に遷移させて、FCスタック11の発電を停止している。
なお、前述の実施形態の説明では、FET14及び制御装置30(充電量検出部31を含む)は、例えば、車両用電力供給制御装置を構成する。
本実施形態では、FET14に換えてリレーを用いることもできる。
また、本実施形態では、バッテリ21の充電量を示す値として、バッテリSOCに換えてバッテリ電圧を用いることもできる。
