The Lithium-Ion Battery Modeling Challenge

Modeling The Lithium-ion Battery

Mathematical modeling of lithium-ion and nickel battery systems

A review of mathematical models of lithium and nickel battery systems developed at the University of South Carolina is presented. Models of Li/Li-ion batteries are reviewed that simulated the behavior of single electrode particles, single electrodes, full cells and batteries (sets of full cells) under a variety of operating conditions (e.g. constant current discharge, pulse discharge, impedance...

Highly Functionalized Lithium-Ion Battery

Future energy demand is an important issue that requires consideration. Lithiumion batteries (LIB) are one of the most popular types of rechargeable battery for portable electronic devices, such as mobile phones, cameras, and laptop computers, and have led to other applications being commercialized. Distributed power generation using renewable energy sources, such as solar photovoltaic (PV), ca...

The birth of the lithium-ion battery.

Throughout the 1980s, the development of portable electronic products such as video cameras, notebook computers, and cell phones led to a growing need for rechargeable batteries with greater capacity, or reduced size and weight for a given capacity. However, conventional rechargeable batteries such as lead–acid batteries and nickel–cadmium batteries, as well as nickel–metalhydride batteries, wh...

Electrochemical Characterization of Low-Cost Lithium-Iron Orthosilicate Samples as Cathode Materials of Lithium-Ion Battery

Lithium-iron-orthosilicate is one of the most promising cathode materials for Li-ion batteries due to its safety, environmental brightness and potentially low cost. In order to produce a low cost cathode material, Li2FeSiO4/C samples are synthesized via sol-gel (SG; one sample) and solid state (SS; two samples with different carbon content), starting from Fe (III) in the raw materials (lo...
