Design and material parameters influence the macroscopically observable cell performance in a complex and nonlinear way. Herein, the development and application of three methodologies for model‐based interpretation and visualization of these influences are presented: 1) deconvolution of overpotential contributions, including ohmic, concentration, and activation overpotentials of the various cell components; 2) partial electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, allowing a direct visualization of the origin of different impedance features; and 3) sensitivity analyses, allowing a systematic assessment of the influence of cell parameters on capacity, internal resistance, and impedance. The methods are applied to a previously developed and validated pseudo‐3D model of a high‐power lithium‐ion pouch cell. The cell features a blend cathode. The two blend components show strong coupling, which can be observed and interpreted using the results of overpotential deconvolution, partial impedance spectroscopy, and sensitivity analysis. The presented methods are useful tools for model‐supported lithium‐ion cell research and development.}, language = {en} }
