    A novel lifetime prediction method for lithium-ion batteries in the case of stand-alone renewable energy systems

    , Article International Journal of Electrical Power and Energy Systems ; Volume 103 , 2018 , Pages 115-126 ; 01420615 (ISSN) Astaneh, M ; Dufo López, R ; Roshandel, R ; Bernal Agustin, J. L ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    This paper presents a mathematical formulation of lithium-ion batteries, including aging and temperature effects. The model is developed by integrating the simplified single particle model (SSPM) and reduced-order model (ROM) to predict solid electrolyte interphase growth (SEI). Results show agreement with the experimental data at 25 °C operating temperature and moderate cycling currents. A maximum error of 3.6% in finding the battery discharged Ah is observed in harsh operating conditions, including 60 °C and approaching the end of life of the battery. Due to the typical operating conditions of stand-alone renewable energy systems, more accurate estimations are expected. Finally, this... 

    Cycling performance of LiFePO4/graphite batteries and their degradation mechanism analysis via electrochemical and microscopic techniques

    , Article Ionics ; Volume 28, Issue 1 , 2022 , Pages 213-228 ; 09477047 (ISSN) Sharifi, H ; Mosallanejad, B ; Mohammadzad, M ; Hosseini Hosseinabad, S. M ; Ramakrishna, S ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    In this work, cycling-induced aging occurring in 18650-type LiFePO4/graphite full cells at different C-rates is studied extensively. The mechanism of performance degradation is investigated using a combination of electrochemical and microstructural analyses. Half-cell studies are carried out after dismantling the full cells, using fresh and cycled LiFePO4 cathode and graphite anode to independently study them. The results show that the capacity of LiFePO4 electrodes is significantly recovered. The rate of capacity fading in the discharge state considered as irreversible capacity in the graphite is higher than LiFePO4 half cells, indicating a greater degradation in the performance of this...

    Study of the Surface Effect on the Behavior of a FG Multiphase Nano-sphere with Spherical Anisotropy due to Some Nonuniform Eigenstrain Field

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Shahryari, Benyamin (Author) ; Mohammadi Shodja, Hossein (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The elastic field is one of the challenges in optimizing the lifetime and capacity of the lithiumion batteries. Graphite nanoparticles have been widely used in Li-ion batteries, due to their mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. During the lithiation, chemical reactions occurred in the electrolyte, which forms a solid electrolyte interphase(SEI) in the surrounding of nanoparticles as well as stress fields inside the nanoparticles. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to examine the effects of the surface/interface on diffusion induced stresses(DIS) within core-shell nanosphere due to non-uniform distribution of eigenstrain fields. Due to the mechanical behavior of the phases,...

    Exact diffusion-induced elastic fields of a spherical core-shell nano-electrode li-ion battery via spectral theory

    Abstract
    In Li-ion batteries the interface between the nano-size spherical core graphite and its surrounding solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer, just inside SEI is susceptible to damage. Thus, accurate determination of the associated elastic fields is one of the challenges in optimizing the lifetime and capacity of Li-ion batteries. The required precision is achieved by considering the core graphite which belongs to the crystal class D6h as homogeneous spherically isotropic and SEI layer as functionally graded (FG) isotropic material. Moreover, to account for the surface/interface effects appropriately the core-shell nano-structure subjected to the diffusion-induced time-dependent nonuniform... 

    Antimony doped SnO2 nanowire@C core–shell structure as a high-performance anode material for lithium-ion battery

    Abstract
    SnO2 is considered as one of the high specific capacity anode materials for Lithium-ion batteries. However, the low electrical conductivity of SnO2 limits its applications. This manuscript reports a simple and efficient approach for the synthesis of Sb-doped SnO2 nanowires (NWs) core and carbon shell structure which effectively enhances the electrical conductivity and electrochemical performance of SnO2 nanostructures. Sb doping was performed during the vapor-liquid-solid synthesis of SnO2 NWs in a horizontal furnace. Subsequently, carbon nanolayer was coated on the NWs using the DC Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition approach. The carbon-coated shell improves the Solid-Electrolyte... 

    Insights into the efficient roles of solid electrolyte interphase derived from vinylene carbonate additive in rechargeable batteries

    Abstract
    Formation of unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layers lacking of thermal stability in non-aqueous electrolytes of rechargeable batteries is the main bottleneck for their long-life cycling, especially at elevated temperatures. Inclusion of a small dose of functional electrolyte additives into the batteries' electrolyte can be highly beneficial to surmount this issue. Of these additives, vinylene carbonate (VC) has drawn particular attention thanks to its high ability to build protective layers at anodes showing good integrity and outstanding thermal stability. In addition to its primary roles in present-day lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), VC additive has also been examined in other...
