Empowering the Future: Exploring the Construction and Characteristics of Lithium-Ion Batteries

Lithium element has attracted remarkable attraction for energy storage devices, over the past 30 years. Lithium is a light element and exhibits the low atomic number 3, just after hydrogen and helium in the periodic table. The lithium atom has a strong tendency to release one electron and constitute a positive charge, as Li . Initially, lithium metal was employed as a negative electrode, which released electrons. However, it was observed that its structure changed after the repetition of charge-discharge cycles. To remedy this, the cathode mainly consisted of layer metal oxide and olive, e.g., cobalt oxide, LiFePO4, etc., along with some contents of lithium, while the anode was assembled by graphite and silicon, etc. Moreover, the electrolyte was prepared using the lithium salt in a suitable solvent to attain a greater concentration of lithium ions. Owing to the lithium ions’ role, the battery’s name was mentioned as a lithium-ion battery. Herein, the presented work describes the working and operational mechanism of the lithium-ion battery. Further, the lithium-ion batteries’ general view and future prospects have also been elaborated.

Lithium battery state of charge and state of health prediction based on fuzzy Kalman filtering

This paper presents a more accurate battery state of charge(SOC)and state of health(SOH)estimation method.A lithium battery is represented by a nonlinear two-order resistance-capacitance equivalent circuit model.The model parameters are estimated by searching least square error optimization algorithm.Precisely defined by this method,the model parameters allow to accurately determine the capacity of the battery,which in turn allows to specify the SOC prediction value used as a basis for the SOH value.Application of the extended Kalman filter(EKF)removes the need of prior known initial SOC,and applying the fuzzy logic helps to eliminate the measurement and process noise.Simulation results obtained during the urban dynamometer driving schedule(UDDS)test show that the maximum error in estimation of the battery SOC is 0.66%.Battery capacity is estimate by offline updated Kalman filter,and then SOH will be predicted.The maximum error in estimation of the battery capacity is 1.55%.

Adaptive Kalman filter based state of charge estimation algorithm for lithium-ion battery

In order to improve the accuracy of the battery state of charge（SOC） estimation, in this paper we take a lithiumion battery as an example to study the adaptive Kalman filter based SOC estimation algorithm. Firstly, the second-order battery system model is introduced. Meanwhile, the temperature and charge rate are introduced into the model. Then, the temperature and the charge rate are adopted to estimate the battery SOC, with the help of the parameters of an adaptive Kalman filter based estimation algorithm model. Afterwards, it is verified by the numerical simulation that in the ideal case, the accuracy of SOC estimation can be enhanced by adding two elements, namely, the temperature and charge rate.Finally, the actual road conditions are simulated with ADVISOR, and the simulation results show that the proposed method improves the accuracy of battery SOC estimation under actual road conditions. Thus, its application scope in engineering is greatly expanded.

Kalman Filters versus Neural Networks in Battery State-of-Charge Estimation: A Comparative Study

Battery management systems (BMS) must estimate the state-of-charge (SOC) of the battery accurately to prolong its lifetime and ensure a reliable operation. Since batteries have a wide range of applications, the SOC estimation requirements and methods vary from an application to another. This paper compares two SOC estimation methods, namely extended Kalman filters (EKF) and artificial neural networks (ANN). EKF is a nonlinear optimal estimator that is used to estimate the inner state of a nonlinear dynamic system using a state-space model. On the other hand, ANN is a mathematical model that consists of interconnected artificial neurons inspired by biological neural networks and is used to predict the output of a dynamic system based on some historical data of that system. A pulse-discharge test was performed on a commercial lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery cell in order to collect data to evaluate those methods. Results are presented and compared.

To offset the defect of the traditional state of charge(SOC)estimation algorithm of lithium battery for electric vehicle and considering the complex working conditions of lithium batteries,an online SOC estimation algorithm is proposed by combining the online parameter identification method and the modified covariance extended Kalman filter(MVEKF)algorithm.Based on the parameters identified on line with the multiple forgetting factors recursive least squares methods,the newly-established algorithm recalculates the covariance in the iterative process with the modified estimation and updates the process gain which is used for the next state estimation to decrease errors of the filter.Experiments including constant pulse discharging and the dynamic stress test(DST)demonstrate that compared with the EKF algorithm,the MVEKF algorithm produces fewer estimation errors and can reduce the errors to 5%at most under the complex charging and discharging conditions of batteries.In the charging process under the DST condition,the EKF produces a larger deviation and lacks stability,while the MVEKF algorithm can estimate SOC stably and has a strong robustness.Therefore,the established MVEKF algorithm is suitable for complex and changeable working conditions of batteries for electric vehicles.
