Life cycle assessment of a lithium-ion battery with a silicon anode for electric vehicles Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Maeva Philippot, Daniele Costa, Giuseppe Cardellini, Lysander De Sutter, Jelle Smekens, Joeri Van Mierlo, Maarten Messagie
New lithium-ion battery generations for electric vehicles are constantly being developed. Currently, batteries with silicon and graphite anode enter the market as third-generation batteries, with limited knowledge of their environmental impacts. This life cycle assessment study evaluates the impacts of the entire life cycle of a prototype lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (LiNi0.6Mn0.2Co0.2O2) battery with a silicon-rich anode using the ...

A lumped electro-thermal model for a battery module with a novel hybrid cooling system Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Jiacheng He, Md Sazzad Hosen, Rekabra Youssef, Theodoros Kalogiannis, Joeri Van Mierlo, Maitane Berecibar
An accurate thermal model is one of the keys to a thermal management system. However modeling of these battery modules based on lumped thermal model is challenging. The extension of the single battery model to a multi-battery model requires not only the connection between the electrical models of the multiple batteries, but also the consideration of the heat transfer between the batteries and the BTMS. In this paper, a lumped electrical-thermal ...

Equivalent Circuit Model for High-Power Lithium-Ion Batteries under High Current Rates, Wide Temperature Range, and Various State of Charges Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Danial Karimi, Hamidreza Behi, Joeri Van Mierlo, Maitane Berecibar

The most employed technique to mimic the behavior of lithium-ion cells to monitor and control them is the equivalent circuit model (ECM). This modeling tool should be precise enough to ensure the system’s reliability. Two significant parameters that affect the accuracy of the ECM are the applied current rate and operating temperature. Without a thorough understating of the influence of these parameters on the ECM, parameter estimation should ...

A Post-Mortem Study Case of a Dynamically Aged Commercial NMC Cell Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Md Sazzad Hosen, Poonam Yadav, Joeri Van Mierlo, Maitane Berecibar
Lithium-ion batteries are currently the pioneers of green transition in the transportation sector. The nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) technology, in particular, has the largest market share in electric vehicles (EVs), offering high specific energy, optimized power performance, and lifetime. The aging of different lithium-ion battery technologies has been a major research topic in the last decade, either to study the degradation behavior, identify ...

Thermal Management of the Li‐Ion Batteries to Improve the Performance of the Electric Vehicles Applications Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Hamidreza Behi, Foad Heidari Gandoman, Danial Karimi, Md Sazzad Hosen, Mohammadreza Behi, Joris Jaguemont, Joeri Van Mierlo, Maitane Berecibar
In recent decades, clean energy has been introduced as an alternative energy source. In this respect, the automobile sector, one of the world's most prominent industries, has significantly contributed to the problem. Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are among the most acceptable power sources for the automobile sector. Li-ion batteries benefit from high energy storage density, high cycle lifetime, and minimal self-discharge. Despite this, Li-ion ...

Optimal Sizing and Aging Investigation of Second Life Lithium-ion Battery Using Renewable Power Smoothing Stationary Application Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Abraham Alem Kebede, Md Sazzad Hosen, Theodoros Kalogiannis, Henok Ayele Behabtu, Towfik Jemal, Joeri Van Mierlo, Thierry Coosemans, Maitane Berecibar
Integration of large renewable energy sources (RESs) to the grid is aimed to solve the problem of shortage of power with the production of surplus
energy and satisfy the increasing demand. However, the intermittent nature of RESs is challenging to integrate with the grid system. Therefore, the utilization of storage batteries, particularly the re-use of retired electric vehicle batteries for stationary application is therefore a reliable ...

An Enhanced Phase Change Material Composite for Electrical Vehicle Thermal Management Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Hamidreza Behi, Danial Karimi, Mohammadreza Behi, Niloufar Nargesi, Morteza Aminian, Ali Ghanbarpour, Farid Mirmohseni, Joeri Van Mierlo, Maitane Berecibar

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery cells are influenced by high energy, reliability, and robustness. However, they produce a noticeable amount of heat during the charging and discharging process. This paper presents an optimal thermal management system (TMS) using a phase change material (PCM) and PCM-graphite for a cylindrical Li-ion battery module. The experimental results show that the maximum temperature of the module under natural convection, ...

Environmental impact of the second life of an automotive battery: Reuse and repurpose based on ageing tests Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Maeva Philippot, Daniele Mesquita Bordalo Da Costa, Md Sazzad Hosen, Anthony Senécat, Erwin Brouwers, Elise Nanini-Maury, Joeri Van Mierlo, Maarten Messagie
The growth of the electric vehicle (EV) market increases the interest in used batteries, making the evaluation of second life battery degradation and their environmental impact important to understand. This study assesses a nickel manganese cobalt (NMC)–lithium titanate oxide (LTO) battery using the life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology, considering two scenarios for the second life of the battery: the reuse in an EV or its repurpose as ...

Voltage Vector Redundancy Exploitation for Battery Balancing in Three-Phase CHB-Based Modular Energy Storage Systems Vrije Universiteit Brussel
