Digital Battery Charging

PDF tutorial, Digital Battery Design (Part IV)

The range and charging speed of electric vehicles are decisive factors for the success of electromobility. In order to improve these parameters in a targeted manner, a deep understanding of the microstructural processes within the battery electrodes is required.

Since these processes are complex and difficult to fully understand experimentally, the GeoDict software enables digital, simulation-based analysis and optimization.

GeoDict enables for battery material design:

  • Visualize and analytically evaluate 3D scans of real electrode materials,
  • create statistical digital twins, and specifically modify material parameters such as binder content,
  • virtually simulate charging and discharging processes, and predict the effects of microstructural changes on charging behavior.

In this PDF tutorial you will learn step-by-step:

  • Set up digital battery: Build a virtual battery in the BatteryDict environment with predefined materials.
  • Simulate charging process: Perform a complete charging cycle with BatteryDict LIR.
  • Mesoscale analysis: Simulate charging behavior on a mesoscale with BESTmeso.
  • Model lithiation: Analyze the lithiation of a cathode with BatteryDict.
  • Compare charging behavior: Evaluate and compare different charging strategies and microstructures.

The tutorial is aimed at battery developers, engineers, and materials scientists who want to use digital tools to analyze and improve the charging behavior of modern batteries.
