Enabling collection of data – from lab to field – to forecast battery ageing
Licentiate thesis, 2024
This is achieved by conducting a campaign of lab-based experiments to identify relevant degradation modes. Simultaneously a battery information format (BIF) suited for field application is developed within the scope of this thesis. The BIF is framed so as to respect both qualitative and quantitat- ive needs existing in battery powered applications and those from a broader informatics perspective. The knowledge about degradation modes are success- ively encoded into a graphical causal model (GCM) that is consequently used to define the binning scheme of the BIF-compatible histograms, enabling a memory-efficient data-collection strategy.
The method is showcased for a Hard Carbon and Na3V2(PO4)2F3 sodium- ion battery, utilizing 1 M NaPF6 as electrolyte, and identifying degradation using electrochemical techniques (e.g. galvanostatic cycling and electrical impedance spectroscopy), coupled gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry, in- frared spectroscopy, and EDX analysis. Subsequently the mentioned translation into a BIF-compatible data collection strategy is carried out. For next steps we suggest doing a field deployment of the strategy, either with the investigated chemistry or with commercial cells of a similar chemistry, so as to validate the BIF concept.
