Research on the Capacity of Li-ion Battery Packer Based on Capacity Incremental Curve
Abstract
Lithium ion battery is the most widely used and reliable power source for electric vehicles. With the development of electric vehicles, the safety, energy density, life and reliability of lithium ion batteries have been continuously improved. However, in the field of vehicle power battery technology, battery monomers are combined in series and parallel to provide enough energy, but one of the major problems faced by group batteries is the consistency between battery monomers. Taking the capacity increment curve (IC curve) of lithium iron phosphate battery as the analysis tool, it is found that the characteristic peak of IC curve of different monomers in battery pack can reflect the relationship of monomer capacity. On this basis, the mathematical model is established, and the IC curve II peak characteristic point of a single cell are used as the reference to characterize the capacity of the single cell one by one. The results show that the method can be used in the normal charging process of the battery pack, and the capacity of the single cell in the battery pack can be characterized in real time during the whole life of the battery pack. It has certain research value for the ladder utilization and accurate management of battery pack.
