Parameter Estimation of a Time-Dependent Lumped Battery Model
Introduction
This tutorial uses a “black-box” approach to define a battery model based on a small set of lumped parameters, requiring no knowledge of the internal structure or design of the battery electrodes, or choice of materials. The inputs to the model are the battery capacity, the initial state-of-charge (SOC), and an open circuit voltage versus SOC curve, in combination with load cycle experimental data.
Parameter estimation of the lumped parameters is achieved using the Parameter Estimation study step.
Model Definition
The model could be seen as a lumped version of a single particle model, modeling the transport of intercalated lithium in one of the electrodes. This simplification can be motivated as long as the battery is mainly governed by the diffusion process in one of the electrodes only. The single particle modeling approach is exemplified in the Application Library example Single Particle Model of a Lithium-Ion Battery.
This model uses the Lumped Battery interface and calculates the battery cell voltage Ecell (V) subject to an applied time-dependent cell current Icell (A). The parameters used in the model are described in Table 1. Additionally, the model requires the battery open circuit voltage data, EOCV (V), as function of state-of-charge.

Potential losses due to ohmic and Charge Transfer processes
The lumped voltage loss associated with ohmic process in the electrolyte and electrodes is given as,
where ηIR,1C (V) is the ohmic overpotential at 1C, Icell is the applied current, and the 1C current, I1C (A), is defined as,
where Qcell,0 (C) is the battery cell capacity.
The dimensionless charge exchange current J0 is used to define the lumped voltage loss associated with the charge transfer reactions (activation overpotential) on both the positive and negative electrode surfaces as
where R denotes the molar gas constant, T the temperature, and F Faraday’s constant.
Potential Loss due to diffusion processes
Concentration overpotential effects can be accounted for in the Lumped Battery interface either based on diffusion in an idealized particle or by using an RC pair (a linear resistor coupled in parallel with a capacitor). In this model, particle diffusion is considered. In this case, Fickian diffusion of a dimensionless SOC variable is solved for in a 1D pseudo extra dimension corresponding to the particle dimension of length 1 with X as the dimensionless spatial variable, using spherical symmetry (for spherical particles), according to
where τ (s) is the diffusion time constant. The interval represents an average particle of the electrode governing the battery, where X = 0 and X = 1 represent the center and surface of the particle, respectively.
The boundary conditions at the center and surface of the particle are as follows:
where Nshape is 3 for spherical particles. The initial cell state-of-charge is specified by SOC0. The surface state-of-charge, SOCsurface, is defined at the surface of the particle (X = 1). The average state-of-charge, SOCaverage, is defined by integrating over the volume of the particle, appropriately considering spherical coordinates, and is defined as

The lumped voltage loss associated with concentration overpotential is defined as,
Cell potential and Parameter Estimation
Finally, the battery cell voltage Ecell is defined as
Introducing the expression for ηconc, Ecell can also be defined as
The tutorial consists of three parts. In the first part, a lumped battery model (of capacity 12 Ah) is set up and run for a time-dependent battery current. In the second part, parameter estimation of the parameters ηIR, 1C, τ, and J0, is performed using experimental data. This is done using a Parameter Estimation study step using a Levenberg–Marquardt optimization solver. Note, the second part of the tutorial requires the Optimization module. In the third part, cell voltage prediction is performed using the optimized lumped parameter values that were obtained in the previous parameter estimation study, and compared with experimental data. The first two studies use a 300 s load cycle. The third prediction study uses a full load cycle with additional 300 s.
Results and Discussion
Figure 1 shows the modeled cell voltage using the fitted parameter values from Table 2 together with the experimental cell voltage and the corresponding open circuit voltage, for the 300 s load cycle.

Figure 3 shows the predicted cell voltage using the optimized parameter values from Table 2 together with the experimental cell voltage and the corresponding open circuit voltage, for the full 600 s load cycle. (Note that the first half (300 s) of the predicted cell voltage is exactly similar to Figure 1, as expected).

The standard deviation values of the modeled cell voltage from the experimental values for all the three studies is shown in Table 3. The standard deviation value of first Load curve simulation study is high, as expected, considering that default values of the lumped parameters are used to simulate the cell voltage. The standard deviation value of the second Parameter estimation study and the third Full load curve prediction study are much lower and nearly the same. (Note that the standard deviation calculation of the prediction study uses only the latter half of the full load cycle). The nearly identical standard deviation values of the second and third study indicate that the quality of prediction will be only as good as the quality of parameter estimation and optimization.
Notes About the COMSOL Implementation
In the model, the inverse of J0, invJ0, is used as fitting parameter. This is done in order to avoid division by 0 in the activation overpotential expression during the optimization process.
