Dear RG community,

I am modeling the thermal abuse behavior of Li-ion cylindrical cell using COMSOL 5.4.

Two models are coupled, i.e. 1D electrochemical model (to evaluate the heat generation) and 3D thermal model (to evaluate the temperature). I need to deploy the decomposition reactions in the anode, cathode and electrolyte during the thermal runaway. The equations to be input are attached.

The equations for the decomposition reactions need time-dependent concentrations of Li-ion ions in the respective component. Hence, I defined domain ODEs to evaluate the time-varying concentrations in all the components. However, I am unable to couple the two models, so that the heat due to the abusive reactions can be included the thermal model. Can anyone suggest the way to go ahead, it would be of immense help.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
