Energies, Vol. 12, Pages 3899: Analysis and Modeling of the Wear-Out Process of a Lithium-Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt Cell during Cycling Operation under Constant Load Conditions (Energies)

This article describes the analyses of modeling the wear process of lithium-nickel-manganese-cobalt cells operating cyclically under constant load conditions. The main aging processes taking place in cells and the methodology of the modeling are discussed. The process of cell wear is examined, taking into account the influence of cyclic operating parameters (temperature, discharge current, and discharge depth). On the basis of the analyses carried out, a new function reflecting the influence of ambient temperature on the durability of the cell is proposed. A new fuzzy model of the wear process of the NMC 18650 type cell, depending on the parameters of the discharge half cycle, has been developed. The results of the model have been verified by experimental research.
