Overview

Energy storage is one of the key enabling technologies in the electrification of systems. It is applicable at all scales, from power grid and renewable energy storage solutions down to the ubiquitous presence of batteries in consumer electronic devices.

Modelling the electrical dynamics of individual battery cells and how differences at the cell level interact at the module and pack level is a critical step in ensuring the safe and performant operation of these systems. Issues such as thermal management can also have a major impact on a whole system’s performance, with product requirements extending beyond pure electrical modelling.

In this talk, Tom Grimble, Application Engineer at MathWorks will share different approaches to modelling battery systems that can accelerate the design of packs and control systems. The methods discussed will help engineers better understand common challenges and constraints when integrating energy storage into wider systems.

Tools enabling multiphysics simulation of complex system interactions will also be discussed, including examples of how similar modelling approaches are applicable to a wide range of other energy storage technologies such as fuel cells and flow batteries.
