    Enterprise Battery Intelligence for Mobility Electrification

    Electrification is the largest disruption to the transportation industry in its 125-year history – Enterprise Battery Intelligence software is key to the future of EV companies.

    With over 160,000 EV battery-related recalls in Q4 2020 alone, EV companies are investing billions of dollars in the facilities, teams and infrastructure needed to gain a deeper understanding of their batteries and how batteries impact their business. Developing, manufacturing and operating high-quality battery-powered products requires a deep understanding of battery behavior in real-world application settings. To do this well, EV companies must marshal mountains of data spanning the test lab, production line and vehicles operating in the field.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Enterprise Battery Intelligence software is key to your company’s future
    • Batteries can add tremendous value—or incur serious costs
    • A deep and holistic understanding of batteries is required to innovate, qualify new batteries and materials, ensure on-time product launches, reduce risk, determine resale/second-life value, increase ROI, among other business critical issues

    Electrolyte Flow Control to Reduce Dendrite and SEI Growth in Lithium Metal Batteries

    Dendrite growth in lithium metal batteries often leads to accelerated failure. SEI growth, breakage under excessive stress around dendrite tips, and re-growth on freshly exposed Li-surfaces leads to rapid capacity deterioration. Till date, a tough, mechanically stable SEI has been thought of as a necessity to prevent further SEI growth and to suppress dendrites. In this presentation, we will demonstrate that electrolyte flow can possibly eliminate dendrite growth, and also reduce SEI growth significantly, thus increasing stability and coulombic efficiency. The required electrolyte flow rates are low enough to be practically achieved by microfluidic pumping techniques.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Creeping normal electrolyte flow can eliminate dendrite growth
    • Creeping normal electrolyte flow increases the columbic efficiency and reduces SEI growth
    • Creeping parallel electrolyte flow significantly reduces dendrite growth
    • A mechanically stable tough SEI layer is not a necessity for stable dendrite free electroplating
    • Required flow rates may be achieved practically

    Battery Modeling – Electrical and Thermal Models

    Energy storage systems are widely used in many applications where the integration of such systems requires a proper design and sizing. To ensure a reliable design and operation of these systems for the above-mentioned applications, a system management including battery management and thermal management is indispensable. Such kind of system-level supervisors are based on efficient modeling approaches that include electro-thermal models. Electro-thermal model includes different models with different precision, where the higher model accuracy requires a higher computational effort and cost. In this webinar, different modeling methods based on the latest findings are explained and reviewed.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Battery thermal solutions: existing systems and trends
    • Electrical behavior modeling
    • Thermal behavior modeling
    • 1D thermal model
    • 3D thermal model
