Statistical characterization of lithium-ion batteries using SystemC-WMS

The mismatch of the electro-chemical-thermal characteristics of lithium-ion cells represents a critical aspect in the use and control of a battery pack. When the cells are placed in series or in parallel the effect of the mismatch between the cells causes degradation of the performances of the battery pack. This paper presents a simulation environment for the analysis of the performances of a battery pack affected by mismatch of its cell parameters
