Abstract: Overcharging is an important safety issue in the charging process of electric vehicle power batteries, and can easily lead to accelerated battery aging and serious safety accidents. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately predict the vehicleâĂŹs charging time to effectively prevent the battery from overcharging. Due to the complex structure of the battery pack and various charging modes, the charging time prediction method often encounters modeling difficulties and low accuracy. In response to the above problems, data drivers and machine learning theories are applied. On the basis of fully considering the different electric vehicle battery management system (BMS) charging modes, a charging time prediction method with charging mode recognition is proposed. First, an intelligent algorithm based on dynamic weighted density peak clustering (DWDPC) and random forest fusion is proposed to classify vehicle charging modes. Then, on the basis of an improved simplified particle swarm optimization (ISPSO) algorithm, a high-performance charging time prediction method is constructed by fully integrating Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and a strong tracking filter. Finally, the data that is run by the actual engineering system is verified for the proposed charging time prediction algorithm. The experimental results show that the new method can effectively distinguish the charging modes of different vehicles, identify the charging characteristics of different electric vehicles, and achieve high prediction accuracy.
