Abstract

Batteries are a complex system. The performances of a battery depend not only in the kinetics of the active material but also of mass transport limitations. Thus, the way the active material is processed into a composite electrode as well as the cell characteristic can impact overall cell performances significantly. As lithium-ion battery is poised to become a multi-billion-dollar industry that span over portable electronics, electric vehicles and storage of renewable energy, qualitative assessment of these limitations is key for future improvement. As such, simulation has become an invaluable tool in the field of lithium ion battery research. The following chapter introduces the Newman volume average approach for lithium-ion battery simulation. Notably this includes the description of fundamental processes occurring during lithium-ion battery operation, typical characterizations methods to obtain key simulation parameters and a complete simulation example.
