Novel Operating Modes for the Charging of Lithium-ion Batteries by Berliner, Marc D, Jiang, Benben, Cogswell, Daniel A, Bazant, Martin Z, Braatz, Richard D

“…The approach is demonstrated for three models of various complexity: a thin-film nickel hydroxide electrode model, a Single-Particle (SP) model, and a Porous Electrode Theory (PET) model. The hybrid fast charging algorithm is shown to be slightly suboptimal for the thermal SP model in some cases, which is not of practical importance for NMPC.…”
