Building a complete cell impedance model and quickly calculating its frequency response are essential for battery design, optimization, and online management. Based on the widely accepted pseudo-two-dimensional (P2D) model, we build a complete full-order partial-dierential-equation (PDE) model for porous-electrode lithium-ion cells that includes a configurable electrical double-layer model at the solid-electrolyte interface (SEI). With the help of a numeric method, cell impedance and frequency responses of the cell’s electrochemical variables at different locations inside the cell are obtained and analyzed. Moreover, in order to achieve the fast calculation of impedance and frequency responses, we derive transfer functions of the internal electrochemical variables, which give a set of exact closed-form equations for cell impedance and internal-variable frequency responses. The Nyquist plot results calculated by the closed-form equations are exactly consistent with the results of numeric simulations using the full-order model, which verifies the accuracy of the transfer functions and the effectiveness of the simplified method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
