Abstract:In order to solve the problem of a large number of retired electric vehicle batteries with a lack of quick sorting means, a fast classification and regroup approach of batteries is presented based on Hybrid Pulse Power Characteristic (HPPC), factor analysis and a clustering algorithm. The maximum available capacity of the battery is calculated by the voltage data of the battery cell in the Battery Management System (BMS). The primary discharge pulse of the HPPC is used to extract the open-circuit voltage, ohmic, polarization and concentration resistances of the battery as characteristic variables. After the characteristic variable data is processed by the normalization algorithm and factor analysis, the battery sorting and recombination are completed by the clustering algorithm. Experimental results show that the average separation and recombination time of a single battery is compressed within 30 min using the proposed method, which has practical significance for classification and regrouping of retired electric vehicle batteries.
