Abstract
A real time simulation of battery conditions is an essential step in the development of energy harvesting devices. Since it is not possible to have a direct measurement, the battery information, such as the remaining charge, need to be estimated by means of model-based estimation algorithms. Most of the existing models describing battery behaviour, are suitable only for a constant discharge current. This paper proposes a study of the dependence of the equivalent circuit model parameters on different discharge conditions. The model presented provides a powerful tool to represent the batteries’ behaviour in energy harvesting systems, involving continuous charge and discharge cycles. The extraction of parameters was performed, starting from a set of reference curves generated in Matlab Simulink environment, referring to Li-ion technology batteries. The parameters were extracted by means of a cascade of global and local search identification algorithms. Finally, the relations describing parameters’ behaviours as functions of the discharge current are presented.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
