Abstract:

A reliability analysis algorithm for evaluating the thermal management system of electric vehicle power batteries was proposed. The T-S dynamic fault tree of the battery thermal management system was constructed, which was transformed into a Discrete-Time Bayesian Network (DTBN) model. Meanwhile, the T-S dynamic gate rules were transformed into the conditional probability table of network nodes, and the reliability analysis algorithms were proposed. According to the established reliability model and the failure rates of components, the failure probability value of the power battery thermal management system in the task time was 0.453 by calculated, and the posterior probability, probability importance, and the key importance of each component were calculated. The results show that: Compared with the Monte Carlo simulation method, the error of the calculated value of fault probability were less than 5%. The components with the highest probability importance are the single battery temperature sensor, battery coolant pump, battery coolant pipeline, and other components. This method can overcome the difficulties of traditional fault tree analysis in constructing conditional probability tables for Bayesian networks.
