Maximizing the Energy Content of a Lithium-Ion Battery

Application ID: 151391


This model demonstrates how gradient-based optimization can be used to find the design parameters that maximize the energy output of a lithium-ion battery for a constant 1C discharge. The example optimizes three parameters: the positive electrode's thickness and the active electrode material volume fractions of the two electrodes.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
