Battery Cell Temperature Sensing Towards Smart Sodium-Ion Cells for Energy Storage Applications

“…Electrolyte has previously been acknowledged as presenting a harsh (corrosive) chemical environment [28]. Complex and expensive conformal coating methods are usually employed for lower volume production, such as Parylene coating [15].…”

Critical Review of Intelligent Battery Systems: Challenges, Implementation, and Potential for Electric Vehicles

“…This is depicted in Figure 2 where schematically the switches for reconfiguration as well as possible sensor implementation and the necessary communication or Battery Management System (BMS) integration is shown. First, concepts combining several of the above functions with corresponding hardware and system approaches can be found in the literature presented as "intelligent" or "smart" batteries [7][8][9][10]. In addition, in the multitude of patents that arise in this field, different aspects are in the focus addressing smart or intelligent battery devices: Intel focuses on integrated sensing [11], Bosch is patenting a device for regulating the system voltage adaptively [12] and Audi outlines an integral smart battery cell with sensing, communication, and integrated reconfiguration functionality [13,14].…”

On the research side, Saidani et al [7] present a battery system, where each battery cell is customized with voltage and temperature sensors, a digital processing unit, and data storage. Their smart system allows battery monitoring on a cell level.…”
