Electrical Modeling of Lithium-Polymer Battery

Electrical modeling of lithium-polymer battery is very important for electric energy supply system. In this paper, electric equivalent circuit of lithium-polymer battery is proposed to simulate its dynamic characteristics. Maccor 8500 charge/discharge system is used to obtain the experimental data of lithium-polymer battery. Model parameters are calculated by using Matlab. This paper defines a R-C model for charging/discharging of battery and polynomial functions are used for OCV (Open Circuit Voltage) modeling. The proposed model is simulated with PSiM and then compared the simulation results with the experimental results to verify the validity of the proposed model.
