The tool uses a two-step approach to estimate the model parameters.
In the first step, the tool extracts charge and discharge profiles from the battery data. This is done by fitting a curve to the voltage and current data. The curve is used to estimate the battery's open-circuit voltage (OCV), the internal resistance (R), and the polarization resistance (Rp).
In the second step, the tool uses curve fitting and Kirchhoff equations to estimate the static and dynamic parameters of the equivalent circuit. The static parameters are the electrical properties of the battery, such as the OCV, the internal resistance, and the polarization resistance. The dynamic parameters are the electrochemical processes that occur within the battery, such as the diffusion resistance and the charge transfer resistance.
The tool uses a variety of methods to estimate the model parameters, including curve fitting, least squares, and genetic algorithms. The tool also uses a variety of techniques to improve the accuracy of the estimates, such as regularization and bootstrapping.
The tool has been tested on a variety of lithium-ion batteries and has been shown to be accurate and reliable. The tool is a valuable tool for battery researchers and engineers who need to estimate the equivalent circuit model of a lithium-ion battery.
The repository you are referring to contains two different folders that can be used to run the battery parameters estimator tool. The user can choose to use the Script or App folder, depending on their needs.
If the Script folder is used, the user will need to first run the main code. This code will prompt the user to input the dataset file, which includes voltage, current, and time data. The user will then need to determine the battery capacity and estimation accuracy. Once these parameters have been entered, the program will automatically calculate the values of the parameters and output them in the form of a Simulink file.
The App folder contains a pre-built application that can be used to run the battery parameters estimator tool. This application is more user-friendly than the Script folder, as it does not require the user to input any parameters. The application will automatically detect the dataset file and battery capacity, and it will estimate the parameters with the highest accuracy possible.
• Taking advantage of different architectures of the equivalent battery model and estimation methods (simple static and fully dynamic mode)
• Focusing on the estimation efficiency based on the behaviour of battery power changes
• Providing an estimated model with acceptable accuracy based on the primary data of the battery without the need for special testing
This article presents a software tool for estimating the equivalent circuit model (ECM) of lithium-ion batteries using available voltage and current data. The proposed method extracts charge and discharge profiles, calculates the state of charge (SOC), and estimates static and dynamic ECM parameters. An illustrative example using a Panasonic 18650 cylindrical lithium-ion battery demonstrates the tool's performance. By comparing the extracted model data with experimental battery data, an accuracy of 82-87% is achieved, depending on the battery model type. This method offers an easy and accurate approach to obtain battery parameters and construct its equivalent circuit for future applications.
