A group of researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology-Guwahati (IIT-G) has developed a method of boosting the efficiency of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries utilized in electric vehicles (EVs).
The superior approach can exactly estimate the state of cost (SOC), some of the necessary inner points of a battery, the group from the institute’s Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering mentioned.
The analysis by Professor Somanath Majhi, Associate Professor Sisir Kumar Nayak and analysis scholar Gautam Sethia was revealed in IEEE Transactions on Circuit and System I: Regular Papers, a scientific journal.
The SOC signifies the remaining cost that may be withdrawn from a battery earlier than it will get absolutely discharged. “The knowledge of remaining capacity helps optimise a battery’s capacity utilisation, prevent its overcharging and undercharging, increase its lifespan, reduce cost, and ensure the safety of the battery and its surroundings,” Prof. Majhi mentioned.
Lithium-ion batteries are most well-liked in cellphones and laptops for their low carbon emission, excessive power density, low self-discharge charge, and low upkeep value. They are additionally being extensively utilized in EVs, built-in good grids and microgrids of renewable power sources.
“The EVs are becoming the most suitable alternatives to the conventional fossil fuel-based vehicles. The battery acts as the prime energy source of electric vehicles. The precise estimation of SOC that cannot be directly measured by any sensor plays a vital role for their efficient operation,” Prof. Majhi mentioned.
