Cut-off voltage and usable capacity

Energy capacity does not represent well the energy content of electrochemical sourcesBatteries can not be discharged down to zero voltage unless being permanently damagedCut-off voltage: knee of discharging curve at which battery is considered as fully discharged, so called 100% depth of discharge (DoD)Usable energy capacity and usable coulometric capacity before cut-off

Discharging/charging current

For batteries, energy capacity and coulometric capacity vary with their discharging current, operating temperature, and ageing

The battery capacity is determined with constant current discharge-charge testsIn a typical constant current test, the battery is initially fully charged and the voltage equals the open-circuit voltage V0c.A constant discharge current is applied. After a certain time tf, called the discharge time, the voltage drops to the cut-off voltage and the battery is empty.

Discharging/charging current

The discharge time is function of the discharge current. The phenomenon is often described using the Peukert equation :

‘n’ is the Peukert exponent which varies between 1 and 1.5 (e.g. in VRLA n~1.35)

This equation also express the dependency of the battery capacity on the discharge current. If the capacity is Q2* for a current I2*, the capacity for a discharge current I2 is

7

Discharging/charging current

Instead of discharge current, a non dimensionsional value called C-rate is used

The C-rate current is defined as the current I0 that discharges the battery in one hour and which has the same value as the battery capacity Q0=CC.The C rate is often written as C/k where k is the number of hours need to discharge the battery with a C-rated current, i.e. c=1/k current, a current k times lower than the rated current I0.

Example: C/5 rate for a 5 Ah battery means that kCn = 1/5*5=1A

CC (and also the EC) decreases with the increasing C rate

nI k C=

State-of-charge

The residual coulometric capacity is termed as the State-of-Charge (SOC)SOC defined as the percentage ratio of residual coulometriccapacity to usable coulometric capacity

State-of-charge and energy capacityIn case of charge, the state of charge must take into account the fact that a fraction of current I2 is not transformed into charge due to irreversible parasitic reactions.It is often modeled using the charging or coulometric efficiency

State of charge and energy capacity

Energy density

Energy densities = usable energy density per unit mass or volume

Gravimetric energy density or specific energy: [Wh/kg]Volumetric energy density [Wh/l]

Gravimetric energy densityThe more important because of weight penalty on consumption and driving rangeKey parameter to assess suitability to EV

Power density

Power density = deliverable rate of energy per unit of mass or volume

Specific power [W/kg]

Power density [W/l]Specific power is important for EV applications because of acceleration and hill climbing capabilityFor batteries, specific power vary with the level of DoDSpecific power is quoted with the percentage of DoD

Cycle life

Cycle life: number of deep-discharge cycles before failure Key parameter to describe the life of EV sources based on the principle of EV storageCycle life is greatly affected by the DoD and its is quoted with the percentage of DoD.

Example: 400 cycles at 100% DoD or 1000 cycles at 50% DoD

For energy generation rather energy storage, the life is definedby the service life in hours or kilohours

11

Energy efficiency

Energy efficiency is defined as the output energy over the input energyFor energy storage source, the energy efficiency is simply the ratio of the output electrical energy during discharging over the input electrical energy during charging.

Typically for batteries in the range of 60-90%

Charge efficiency defined as the ratio of discharged coulometriccharge Ah to the charged coulometric capacity Ah.

Typically for batteries in the range of 65-90%

For EV, energy efficiency is more important than charge efficiency

Energy efficiency

The energy or power losses of batteries during charging discharging appear in the form of voltage losses. Thus the efficiency of the battery during charging / discharging can be defined any operating point as the ratio of the cell voltage V to the thermodynamic voltage V0.

12

Energy efficiency

The terminal voltage is a function of the current, the energy stored or the SOC. The terminal voltage is lower in discharging and higher in charging than the electrical potential produced by chemical reactions.The battery has a high discharging efficiency with a high SOC and a high charging with a low SOC. Thus net cycle efficiency is maximum around the middle range of SOC

Cost

Cost includes: initial (manufacturing) cost + operational (maintenance) cost

Manufacturing cost is the most important one

Cost is a sensitive parameter for EV sources because it is a penalty with respect to other energy sourcesCost in €/kWh or $/kWhPresently cost in the range of 120 to 1200 €/kWh

Increase S: surface area of the electrode / electrolyte specific surface

For activated carbon, S depends on the micropores amount (<2nm)S~1000 m²/g 1000 F/g

SupercapacitorsCapacitors with double layers are limited to 0,9 volts per cell for aqueous electrolyte and about 2.3 to 2.3 V with non aqueous electrolyte Because the double layer is very thin (couple of nanometers), capacity per area is high: 2,5 to 5 µF/cm²With material with a high active area (1000 m²/g) like activated carbon one gets a capacity about 50 F/g

1000 m²/g x 5µ F/cm² x 10000 cm²/m² = 50 F/g

Assuming the same amount of electrolyte as carbon, one gets a capacity of 25 F/gHowever, the energy density is rather low: <10 Wh/kg (remind VRLA ~ 40 Wh/kg)

Ecoefficiency: global index which accounts for both:Environmental impacts: CO2 + emissions + noiseUser satisfaction criteria (US): composite index that assesses the ability of the vehicle to meet customer’s expectations about his transport needs: Performance + Daily Cost…

Fair comparison between antagonist constraints is provided by using an optimization approach

Flywheels

FlywheelsPrinciple: Storing energy as kinetic energy in high speed rotating disk

Idea developed 25 years ago in Oerlikon Engineering company, Switzerland for a hybrid electric bus

Weight = 1500 kg and rotation speed 3000 rpm

Traditional design is a heavy steel rotor of hundreds of kg spinning at ~1.000 rpm.

Advanced modern flywheels: composite lightweight flywheels (tens of kg) rotating at ~10.000 rpm

Flywheels

A rotating flywheel stores the energy in the kinematic form

Jf= moment of inertia and ωf= rotation speed

The formula indicates that enhancing the rotation velocity is the key to increasing the energy storage. One can achieve nowadays rotation speed of 60,000 rpmFirst generation flywheel energy storage systems use a large steel flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings.

Newer systems use carbon-fiber composite rotors that have a higher tensile strength than steel and are an order of magnitude lighter.

FlywheelsA typical system consists of a rotor suspended by bearings inside a vacuum chamber to reduce friction, connected to a combination electric motor/electric generator.

FlywheelsWith this current technology it is difficult to couple directly the flywheel to the propelling system of the car.One would need a continuous variable transmission with a wide gear ratio variation range.The common approach consists in coupling an electric machine to the flywheel directly or via a transmission: One makes a ‘mechanical battery’The electric machine functions as the energy input / output portconverting the mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice-versa
