Coupling Analysis and Performance Study of Commercial 18650 Lithium-Ion Batteries under Conditions of Temperature and Vibration

Abstract

At present, a variety of standardized 18650 commercial cylindrical lithium-ion batteries are widely used in new energy automotive industries. In this paper, the Panasonic NCR18650PF cylindrical lithium-ion batteries were studied. The NEWWARE BTS4000 battery test platform is used to test the electrical performances under temperature, vibration and temperature-vibration coupling conditions. Under the temperature conditions, the discharge capacity of the same battery at the low temperature was only 85.9% of that at the high temperature. Under the vibration condition, mathematical statistics methods (the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum test and the Kruskal-Wallis test) were used to analyze changes of the battery capacity and the internal resistance. Changes at a confidence level of 95% in the capacity and the internal resistance were considered to be significantly different between the vibration conditions at 5 Hz, 10 Hz, 20 Hz and 30 Hz versus the non-vibration condition. The internal resistance of the battery under the Y-direction vibration was the largest, and the difference was significant. Under the temperature-vibration coupling conditions, the orthogonal table L9 (34) was designed. It was found out that three factors were arranged in order of temperature, vibration frequency and vibration direction. Among them, the temperature factor is the main influencing factor affecting the performance of lithium-ion batteries.

Banning Diesel Vehicles in London: Is 2040 Too Late?

“…(2) the observations of the samples are independent; and (3) the scale of measurement of the dependent variable should be at least ordinal [50]. This non-parametric statistical test has been used by many researchers [51][52][53], most commonly in behavioural sciences [54]. It is utilised in this study with the aim of gaining greater insight into the factors that may influence the public acceptance of the ban on diesel vehicles.…”

Parameter Identification and State Estimation of Lithium-Ion Batteries for Electric Vehicles with Vibration and Temperature Dynamics

“…In reference [15], mechanical stress induced by vibration like in the case of EV crash, is a major concern of LIB safety in EVs response to such stress. According to the reference [9], the EVs are faced with road-induced vibrations which affect both the system's electrical performance and mechanical properties, as cell consistency deteriorates with vibration stress [6]. For these reasons, various control mechanisms should be employed to eliminate noise and harshness, as well as creating an equitable driving environment for EVs.…”

Experimental Testing and Evaluation of Lithium-Ion Battery Cells for a Special-Purpose Electric Vacuum Sweeper Vehicle

“…The experimental results show a significant difference in degradation of batteries depending on the types of test cycles for different types of batteries. An interesting research from the vehicular technology standpoint tests lithium-ion batteries under different temperature conditions, vibration frequencies and vibration directions [17]. NCA batteries were used in the tests and the results indicate that battery characteristics are significantly more affected by the ambient temperature than the road vibrations.…”

“…1 Battery capacity rated at 1C means that a fully charged battery rated at 1 Ah should provide 1 A for one hour [21]. [9], [10], [13] Modelling based on experimental testing [11], [12], [14], [15] Experimental testing and evaluation of one batteries [16], [17], [18], [19], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26] Two different test benches are used in the experiments described in [23], one for the tests in the steady state, and the other one under the dynamic operation conditions. Battery electrical characteristics, capacity-temperature dependence, ageing effects and energy storage efficiency under different currents and the dynamic performance are evaluated.…”
