Transient electrochemical heat transfer modeling and experimental validation of a large sized LiFePO4/graphite battery

Both measurement and modeling of thermal performance in lithium-ion battery cell are considered crucial as they directly affect the safety. Even though the operation of a lithium-ion battery cell is transient phenomena in most cases, most available thermal models for lithium-ion battery cell predicts only steady-state temperature fields. This paper presents a mathematical model to predict the transient temperature distributions of a large sized...
