% This example file calculates the cell voltage of a lithium-ion battery
|
|
% at given temperature, pressure, current, and range of state of charge (SOC).
|
|
%
|
|
% The thermodynamics are based on a graphite anode and a LiCoO2 cathode,
|
|
% modeled using the 'BinarySolutionTabulatedThermo' class.
|
|
% Further required cell parameters are the electrolyte ionic resistance, the
|
|
% stoichiometry ranges of the active materials (electrode balancing), and the
|
|
% surface area of the active materials.
|
|
%
|
|
% The functionality of this example is presented in greater detail in the
|
|
% reference (which also describes the derivation of the
|
|
% BinarySolutionTabulatedThermo class):
