It is a solid reference on the simulation of battery dynamics based on fundamental governing equations of porous electrodes. Sections cover the fundamentals of electrochemistry and how to obtain electrochemical governing equations for porous electrodes, the governing equations and physical characteristics of lead-acid batteries, the physical characteristics of zinc-silver oxide batteries, experimental tests and parameters necessary for simulation and validation of battery dynamics, and an environmental impact and techno-economic assessment of battery systems for different applications, such as electric vehicles and battery energy storage.
The book contains introductory information, with most chapters requiring a solid background in engineering or applied science. Battery industrial companies who want to improve their industrial batteries will also find this book useful.
- Includes carefully selected in-text problems, case studies and illustrative examples
- Features representative chapter-end problems, along with practical systems and applications
- Covers various numerical methods, including those based on CFD and optimization, also including free codes and databases
Practicing engineers and graduate students, those with background in engineering or applied science. In addition, battery industrial companies who want to improve their industrial batteries
