About ISEAFrame
The ISEA Battery Framework is a real time capable simulation framework written in C++. It allows coupled electrical-thermal simulations of single storage systems (e.g. lithium ion batteries or double layer capacitors) or complete storage system packs. These packs may consist of arbitrary but reasonable series and parallel connections of single storage systems. The electrical simulations are based on impedance based modeling, the thermal simulations on the finite volume method (FVM). The simulation framework can be used for the following purposes:
- Development and testing of battery management systems (BMS). Particularly it is possible to investigate the BMS behavior in an error case of the storage system (e.g. short circuits or thermal issues).
- Dimensioning, development and testing of storage system packs. I.e. it is possible to evaluate and optimize pack geometry, electrical and thermal topologies as well as optimized cooling properties for a storage system pack for given requirements.
- Since the simulation framework is real time capable it can be implemented on a Hardware in the loop platform (HIL) to estimate crucial states of storage system packs used in electric vehicles (e.g. state of charge, state of health, state of function). A quick and accurate parameterization of the implemented model can be achieved by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and time domain measurements (TDM).
For electrical parameter identification the FittingGUI is suggested. The author of the FittingGUI worked very close with the development team for implementation of electrical equivalent circuits.
