  • Publication number: 20240109456
    Abstract: A method for controlling battery swapping of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle induces a vehicle control unit (VCU), a bidirectional DC-DC converter assembly, a vehicle load, a battery controller, a power battery pack, and a storage battery. The method includes: receiving, by the VCU, a battery swapping instruction when the vehicle is in the high-voltage power-on state; transmitting, by the VCU, a switching instruction to the bidirectional DC-DC converter assembly in response to the battery swapping instruction; and disabling, by the bidirectional DC-DC converter assembly, the buck mode in response to the switching instruction to cut off electrical connection between the power battery pack and a high-voltage circuit of the vehicle by a battery controller, and enabling the boost mode in response to the switching instruction to supply power to the vehicle load by the storage battery through the bidirectional DC-DC converter assembly.

  • Patent number: 11548797
    Abstract: A method for electrolysis-ozone-corrosion inhibitor/electrolysis-ozone-hydrogen peroxide-corrosion inhibitor coupling treatment on toxic and refractory wastewater includes the following steps: adding toxic and refractory wastewater to be treated into a wastewater treatment reaction tank equipped with a plate anode and a plate cathode, and starting a direct current (DC) power supply connected to the plate anode and the plate cathode to treat the toxic and refractory wastewater at an appropriate current density under stirring, during which a corrosion inhibitor and hydrogen peroxide are added to the toxic and refractory wastewater to be treated and ozone is introduced into the toxic and refractory wastewater to be treated through an aeration device. The method can increase the production rate and production quantity of free radicals in a reaction system, effectively improve the treatment efficiency for toxic and refractory wastewater, and reduce the treatment cost.
