In order to simulate the dynamical behavior of a lithium-ion traction battery used in electric vehicles,an equivalent circuit-based battery model was established.The methodology in the guide document of the ADVISOR software was used to determine the initial parameters of the model as a function of state of charge(SoC)over an experimental data set of the battery.A numerically nonlinear least squares algorithm in SIMULINK design optimization toolbox was applied to further optimize the model parameters.Validation results showed that the battery model could well describe the dynamic behavior of the lithium-ion battery in two different battery loading situations.
In order to characterize the voltage behavior of a lithium-ion battery for on-board electric vehicle battery management and control applications,a battery model with a moderate complexity was established.The battery open circuit voltage (OCV) as a function of state of charge (SOC) was depicted by the Nernst equation.An equivalent circuit network was adopted to describe the polarization effect of the lithium-ion battery.A linear identifiable formulation of the battery model was derived by discretizing the frequent-domain description of the battery model.The recursive least square algorithm with forgetting was applied to implement the on-line parameter calibration.The validation results show that the on-line calibrated model can accurately predict the dynamic voltage behavior of the lithium-ion battery.The maximum and mean relative errors are 1.666% and 0.01%,respectively,in a hybrid pulse test,while 1.933% and 0.062%,respectively,in a transient power test.The on-line parameter calibration method thereby can ensure that the model possesses an acceptable robustness to varied battery loading profiles.
In order to simulate electrical characteristics of a lithium-ion battery used in electric vehicles in a good manner,a three-layer battery model is established.The charge of the lithium-ion battery is assumed to distribute among the three layers and their interaction is used to depict hysteresis and relaxation effect observed in the lithium-ion battery.The model parameters are calibrated and optimized through a numerically nonlinear least squares algorithm in Simulink Parameter Estimation Toolbox for an experimental data set sampled in a hybrid pulse test of the battery.Evaluation results showed that the established model is able to provide an acceptable accuracy in estimating the State of Charge of the lithium-ion battery in an open-loop fashion for a sufficiently long time and to describe the battery voltage behavior more accurately than a commonly used battery model.The battery modeling accuracy can thereby satisfy the requirement for practical electric vehicle applications.
