I want to learn the simulation work of batteries. Can anyone who is expertise in this field suggest me which software is used to learn battery management system ? Also where to start if I am starting this field?
Hi Anchali, I suggest that you can use Matlab or Python to write battery management algorithms. If you want to go deeper into electrochemistry, you might use Comsol for electrochemical simulation.
There are some great online resources for beginners. For example, Prof. Plett offers battery management courses and toolboxes regarding battery modelling and state estimation, see http://mocha-java.uccs.edu/
Hi Anchali, In addition to what Tian mentioned, you can train some of your modelling with the following online free tools,
1. Plett's model based tool from RWTH Aachen: GitHub - batterysim/esctoolbox-python: Python version of Gregory Plett's ESCtoolbox
2. Tool from Toyota: GitHub - TRI-AMDD/beep: Battery evaluation and early prediction
3. Tool from IFE Norway: GitHub - jepegit/cellpy: extract and tweak data from electrochemical tests of cells
4. PyBaMM
5. Alawa toolbox: (https://www.soest.hawaii.edu/HNEI/alawa/)
This paper has some reviews of the different open source models. (Evaluating the usability of open source frameworks in energy system modelling - ScienceDirect)
Hope it helps. Cheers!
Sivarajakumar Maharajan Thank you so much for your suggestion.
I am starting afresh with the modelling of batteries. I will try the links you send me. Hopefully, learn the basics using one of the modules.
One more query I would like to ask, as I have zero knowledge of python programming language. so it is necessary to learn python first?
Anchali Jain Python is a programming language tool, as you rightly mentioned. You can do the same thing with MATLAB too. MATLAB is capable of Equivalent Circuit Models (ECM) and semi empirical types. I would begin with that. You might have to understand the RC parameters to get along with these models.
I recommend you this youtube video, Introduction to Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS: Maths and Theory) - YouTube
It is about EIS. However, it covers the basics of RC parameters. It is very good.
Feel free to contact me if you need any further information.
OpenFOAM software is a free and good choice, but it has the disadvantage that the initial learning is difficult
