Mathematical Modeling And Capacity Fading Study In Porous Current Collector Based Lithium Ion Battery, Surendra Bajagain

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries are primary energy storage devices especially in electronic gadgets, electric vehicles and for stationary storage of intermittent renewable energy. These applications demand durable Li-ion batteries with higher energy density. Energy density can be increased either by finding novel electrode materials or by modifying the existing design of the battery. The electrode materials or modified design should not only increase energy density, but also should control the capacity fading of the battery. In this work, existing mathematical model of Li-ion battery was adjusted in the case of the porous current collector. The discharge performance and capacity fading …
