Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Bestimmung des Ladezustandes (SOC) einer aufladbaren Batterie (106) eines vorgegebenen Batterietyps oder eines damit in einem physikalischen Zusammenhang stehenden Parameters, insbesondere einer in der Batterie enthaltenen Restladungsmenge Q, wobei das Verfahren mittels eines spannungsgeführten Batteriemodells (102) arbeitet, welches für die betreffende Batterie (106) oder einen entsprechenden Batterietyp parametriert wird. Es muss lediglich die Batteriespannung Umess gemessen und dem Batteriemodell (102) als Eingangsgröße zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Weiterhin betrifft die Erfindung ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Bestimmung des Gesundheitszustandes (SOH) einer Batterie (102), wobei das Batteriemodell (102), das auch zur Bestimmung des SOC verwendet wird, einen modellierten Batteriestrom Imodliefert. Aus diesem können modellierte Ladungsmengen während Lade- und Entladephasen der Batterie (106) bestimmt und mit gemessenen Ladungsmengen, die aus dem gemessenen Batteriestrom Imessbestimmt werden, verglichen werden. Da das Batteriemodell (102) nicht altert, kann hierdurch der SOH der Batterie bestimmt werden.

Practical bottlenecks associated with commercialization of Lithium-air cells include capacity limitation and low cycling efficiency. The origin of such losses can be traced to complex electrochemical side reactions and reactant mass transport losses[1]. The efforts to minimize such losses include exploration of various electrolytes with additives[2], and cell component geometry and material design. Given the wide range of options for such materials, it is almost impractical to experimentally setup and characterize all those cells. Consequently, modeling and simulation studies are efficient alternatives to analyze spatially and temporally resolved cell behavior for various combinations of materials[3]. In this study, with the help of a two-dimensional multi physics model, we have focused on the effect of electrode and electrolyte interaction (electrochemistry), choice of electrolyte (species transport), and electrode geometry (electrode design) on the performance of a lithium-air button cell. Figure1a shows the schematics of the 2D axisymmetric computational domain. A comparative analysis of five different electrolytes was performed while focusing on the 2D distribution of local current density and the concentration of electro-chemically active species in the cell, that is, O2and Li+. Using two different cathode configurations, namely, flooded electrode and gas diffusion electrode (GDE)[4] at different cathode thickness, the effect of cell geometry and electrolyte saturation on cell performance was explored. Further, a detailed discussion on electrode volume utilization (cf. Figure1b) is presented via changes in the active volume of cathode that produces 90% of the total current with the cell current density for different combinations of electrolyte saturations and cathode thickness.
Lithium-ion batteries exhibit a well-known trade-off between energy and power, which is problematic for electric vehicles which require both high energy during discharge (high driving range) and high power during charge (fast-charge capability). We use two commercial lithium-ion cells (high-energy [HE] and high-power) to parameterize and validate physicochemical pseudo-two-dimensional models. In a systematic virtual design study, we vary electrode thicknesses, cell temperature, and the type of charging protocol. We are able to show that low anode potentials during charge, inducing lithium plating and cell aging, can be effectively avoided either by using high temperatures or by using a constant-current/constant-potential/constant-voltage charge protocol which includes a constant anode potential phase. We introduce and quantify a specific charging power as the ratio of discharged energy (at slow discharge) and required charging time (at a fast charge). This value is shown to exhibit a distinct optimum with respect to electrode thickness. At 35°C, the optimum was achieved using an HE electrode design, yielding 23.8 Wh/(min L) volumetric charging power at 15.2 min charging time (10% to 80% state of charge) and 517 Wh/L discharge energy density. By analyzing the various overpotential contributions, we were able to show that electrolyte transport losses are dominantly responsible for the insufficient charge and discharge performance of cells with very thick electrodes.
Silicon (Si) has turned out to be a promising active material for next‐generation lithium‐ion battery anodes. Nevertheless, the issues known from Si as electrode material (pulverization effects, volume change etc.) are impeding the development of Si anodes to reach market maturity. In this study, we are investigating a possible application of Si anodes in low‐power printed electronic applications. Tailored Si inks are produced and the impact of carbon coating on the printability and their electrochemical behavior as printed Si anodes is investigated. The printed Si anodes contain active material loadings that are practical for powering printed electronic devices, like electrolyte gated transistors, and are able to show high capacity retentions. A capacity of 1754 mAh/gSi is achieved for a printed Si anode after 100 cycles. Additionally, the direct applicability of the printed Si anodes is shown by successfully powering an ink‐jet printed transistor.
The accurate diagnosis of state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH) is of utmost importance for battery users and for battery manufacturers. State diagnosis is commonly based on measuring battery current and using it in Coulomb counters or as input for a current-controlled model. Here we introduce a new algorithm based on measuring battery voltage and using it as input for a voltage-controlled model. We demonstrate the algorithm using fresh and pre-aged lithium-ion battery single cells operated under well-defined laboratory conditions on full cycles, shallow cycles, and a dynamic battery electric vehicle load profile. We show that both SOC and SOH are accurately estimated using a simple equivalent circuit model. The new algorithm is self-calibrating, is robust with respect to cell aging, allows to estimate SOH from arbitrary load profiles, and is numerically simpler than state-of-the-art model-based methods.
Ziel des Projekts STABIL war die Vorhersage der Alterung und Verbesserung der Lebensdauer von mobilen und stationären Lithium-Ionen-Batterien. Batterien sind zentrale Komponenten der Elektromobilität und der stationären Speicherung von regenerativem Strom. Die im Stand der Technik unzureichende Lebensdauer der Batterie ist heute wesentlicher Kostentreiber. Im Projekt wurde daher in einem skalenübergreifenden und interdisziplinären Ansatz das Verhalten von einzelnen Batteriezellen und ganzen Batteriesystemen unter zwei unterschiedlichen systemischen Randbedingungen untersucht.
Simulation-based degradation assessment of lithium-ion batteries in a hybrid electric vehicle
(2017)
The insufficient lifetime of lithium-ion batteries is one of the major cost driver for mobile applications. The battery pack in vehicles is one of the most expensive single components that practically must be excluded from premature replacement (i.e., before the life span of the other components end). Battery degradation is a complex physicochemical process that strongly depends on operating condition and environment. We present a simulation-based analysis of lithium-ion battery degradation during operation with a standard PHEV test cycle. We use detailed multiphysics (extended Newman-type) cell models that allow the assessment of local electrochemical potential, species and temperature distributions as driving forces for degradation, including solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation [1]. Fig. 1 shows an exemplary test cycle and the predicted resulting spatially-averaged SEI formation rate. We apply a time-upscaling approach to extrapolate the degradation analysis over long time scales, keeping physical accuracy while allowing end-of-life assessment [2]. Results are presented for lithium-ion battery cells with graphite/LFP chemistry. The behavior of these cells in terms of degradation propensity, performance, state of charge and other internal states is predicted during long-term cycling. State of health (SOH) is quantified as capacity fade and internal resistance increase as function of operation time.
