Experimental analysis of lithium iron phosphate battery performances

In this paper a study and an experimental analysis on lithium iron phosphate battery under different operating conditions is reported in order to investigate its potential application to electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles. The analysis of unloading and loading characteristics and the energetic analysis of storage process efficiency have been developed. Unloading and loading characteristics, temperature sensitivity in a range of −15° C to +50° C have been determined. To evaluate lithium iron phosphate battery dynamic performance for electric vehicle application a typical dynamic load variations test has been conducted.
