Equivalent Circuit Models
Posted February 24th, 2009 by bdsmadmin
These models use common electrical components to represent batteries.
- Typically they run very fast and so are useful for use in larger design packages like PSPICE.
- Battery Design Studio® is useful for characterizing the performance of these models and regressing parameters.
NiMH
This model accounts for self-discharge and temperature effects. It has been used in battery management systems for estimation of state of charge.
Nelson
Two time constants with equilibrium voltage expression.
USABC Lumped Parameter Model
Model is very useful for analyzing data from hybrid pulse power characterization test..
NREL-2RC
Circuit has two time constants.
UCap3RC
Circuit with 3 time constants for modeling ultracapacitors.
Rint
Battery is modeled as resistor in series with a voltage source.
