hela Sverige Energy storage systems (ESS) are known to be one of the key sub-systems of an electric vehicle (EV) in which determine a vehicle's range, power, and speed. Additionally, they strongly impact the total cost of EVs as ESS is one of the most expensive sub-systems. Therefore, ESS efficiency has always been a topic of interest for research and product design.
High number of single Li-ion battery cells are connected to form a battery pack of an ESS. Battery management systems (BMS) are responsible to ensure efficient, safe, and reliable operation of every single cell onboard. To fulfill this goal, a BMS shall have deep and accurate knowledge of battery cells' behavior to estimate and predict their states. This understanding is based upon how the cells are modelled, and what parameters do the models have.
The complexity of the task increases when the BMS is only provided with limited non-ideal sensor information in occasional time-window opportunities, with limited processing/memory hardware for states estimation. On top of cell voltage, current, and temperature measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurement capabilities are being introduced within the industry which can further help the BMS to identify the battery model parameters.
This thesis project focuses on proposing a fast, efficient, and accurate BMS algorithm to identify cell model parameters from impedance measurements coming from an EIS device
Suitable background
The selected candidate will be having the qualifications listed as
Strong educational background in electrical, control, material science, or chemical engineering with adequate knowledge on control theory, nonlinear particle filtering, and system identification;
