Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Advanced rechargeable batteries are crucial for an industrial and social evolution toward a sustainable society. Among battery technologies, lithium-based batteries have seen tremendous growth in recent years, but further technological advancements are expected for emerging battery applications such as the Internet of Things, electric mobility, and stationary energy storage. This Special Issue invites articles on innovative developments for “Battery Systems and Applications” with a special emphasis on emerging battery systems and applications that improve performance, safety, and environmental sustainability.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Integration of battery cells into a battery system, including mechanical, electrical, and thermal aspects;
  • Adaptation of battery system design to novel cell chemistries (advanced lithium-ion, solid-state cells);
  • Applications for lithium batteries, including portable applications, e-mobility (EV), stationary (energy storage technology), satellites/aerospace applications;
  • Battery applications in the field of Internet of Things (IoT): wearable battery solutions, medical, industrial, smart home, energy storage, etc.;
  • Design, control, and optimization of battery management systems (BMS);
  • Cell, module, and system-level performance monitoring;
  • Innovative charge/discharge management systems.

Along with global efforts to reduce the carbon footprint, electrification of powertrains is occurring in various applications, certainly including transportation systems. One of the most important components is an electric energy storage system, i.e., a battery pack. Regardless of battery form factors, such as cylindrical, pouch and prismatic type, it is critical to maintain the safety of the battery module/pack by monitoring the conditions of each and every battery cell of the battery pack. It becomes even more critical as the battery cells are used over many charging and discharging cycles. Thermal runaways of the battery packs can even be triggered by a single faulty battery cell which degrades in an unexpected manner and speed compared to the neighboring battery cells, resulting in extreme fire hazards. Typically, this faulty cell with an abnormally increased internal resistance can be detected using a voltage sensor or a temperature sensor. However, in this study, instead of depending on those sensors, activities of cell balancing switching devices are used to identify a degraded cell compared to other cells in a relative manner. A currently proposed faulty cell detection algorithm was developed through multiple simulations with Matlab Simulink®, then, a simple BMS prototype was built and tested as a proof of concept.

The global initiative of decarbonization has led to the popularity of renewable energy sources, especially solar photovoltaic (PV) cells and energy storage systems. However, standalone battery-based energy storage systems are inefficient in terms of the shelf and cycle life, reliability, and overall performance, especially in instantaneous variations in solar irradiance and load. In order to overcome this, a combination of a supercapacitor and battery-based hybrid energy storage system (HESS) is considered as an emerging and viable solution. The present work proposes an optimally tuned tilt-integral (TI) controller to develop an efficient power management strategy (PMS) to enhance the overall system performance. The controller parameters are tuned by optimization of the time-domain design specifications using a gradient-free simplex search technique. The robustness of the proposed TI controller is demonstrated in comparison to PI and fractional-order PI (FOPI) controllers. Furthermore, extensive experimentation was carried out to analyze the effectiveness of the proposed approach for DC bus voltage stabilization and state-of-charge (SOC) management under varying operating conditions such as solar irradiance, load, temperature, and SOC consumption by battery.
