Abstract As one pioneer means for energy storage, Li-ion battery packs have a complex and critical issue about degradation monitoring and remaining useful life estimation. It induces challenges on condition characterization of Li-ion battery packs such as internal resistance (IR). The IR is an essential parameter of a Li-ion battery pack, relating to the energy efficiency, power performance, degradation, and physical life of the li-ion battery pack. This study aims to obtain reliable IR through applying an evaluation test that acquires data such as voltage, current, and temperature provided by the battery management system (BMS). Additionally, this paper proposes an approach to predict the degradation of Li-ion battery pack using support vector regression (SVR) with RBF kernel. The modeling approach using the relationship between internal resistance, different SOC levels 20%–100%, and cycle at the beginning of life 1 cycle until cycle 500. The data-driven method is used here to achieve battery life prediction.based on internal resistance behavior in every period using supervised machine learning, SVR. Our experiment result shows that the internal resistance was increasing non-linear, approximately 0.24%, and it happened if the cycle rise until 500 cycles. Besides, using SVR algorithm, the quality of the fitting was evaluated using coefficient determination R2, and the score is 0.96. In the proposed modeling process of the battery pack, the value of MSE is 0.000035.

Lithium-ion batteries exhibit significant performance degradation such as power/energy capacity loss and life cycle reduction in low-temperature conditions. Hence, the Li-ion battery pack is heated before usage to enhance its performance and lifetime. Recently, many internal heating methods have been proposed to provide fast and efficient pre-heating. However, the proposed methods only consider a combination of unit cells while the internal heating should be implemented for multiple groups within a battery pack. In this study, we investigated the possibility of timing control to simultaneously obtain balanced temperature and state of charge (SOC) between each cell by considering geometrical and thermal characteristics of the battery pack. The proposed method schedules the order and timing of the charge/discharge period for geometrical groups in a battery pack during internal pre-heating. We performed a pack-level simulation with realistic electro-thermal parameters of the unit battery cells by using the mutual pulse heating strategy for multi-layer geometry to acquire the highest heating efficiency. The simulation results for heating from −30 ∘ C to 10 ∘ C indicated that a balanced temperature-SOC status can be achieved via the proposed method. The temperature difference can be decreased to 0.38 ∘ C and 0.19% of the SOC difference in a heating range of 40 ∘ C with only a maximum SOC loss of 2.71% at the end of pre-heating.

This paper presents a three-dimensional modeling approach to simulate the thermal performance of a Li-ion battery module for a new urban car. A single-battery cell and a 52.3 Ah Li-ion battery module were considered, and a Newman, Tiedemann, Gu, and Kim (NTGK) model was adopted for the electrochemical modeling based on input parameters from the discharge experiment. A thermal–electrochemical coupled method was established to provide insight into the temperature variations over time under various discharge conditions. The distribution temperature of a single-battery cell was predicted accurately. Additionally, in a 5C discharge condition without a cooling system, the temperature of the battery module reached 114 °C, and the temperature difference increased to 25 °C under a 5C discharging condition. This condition led to the activation of thermal runaway and the possibility of an explosion. However, the application of a reasonable fan circulation and position reduced the maximum temperature to 49.7 °C under the 5C discharge condition. Moreover, accurate prediction of the temperature difference between cell areas during operation allowed for a clear understanding and design of an appropriate fan system.
