Parameterization of an electrical battery model for dynamic system simulation in electric vehicles

This article describes the parameterization of a simple, dynamic single cell battery model for cell and system simulation. It is shown how to parameterize the model based on basic electrical tests and publicly available data such as data sheets. The performance of the parameterized model is validated with test results gained from two different cycles with the li-Tec HEA 40 High Energy Cell. Additionally, it is shown how the model can be extended to consider basic aging effects.
