The simscape equivalent circuit battery has a bunch of parameterized cells. I am using the molicelI NR_21700_P45B lithium ion battery. The in built data set has 101 state of charge breakpoints, and 7 temperature levels. So, the R0 value has a matrix of size 101x7. However, the overpotential (R1-C1, R2-C2, R3-C3) has the size 7x3. Obviously, when I run the model, I get the following error : size of First polarization resistance, R1(SOC,T) must be equal to length of State of charge breakpoints for resistance, SOC by length of Temperature breakpoints for resistance, T.
I have read the model documentation clearly, there is a part where a hint of how to use the values properly is given: The software does not parameterize the change in series resistance with the battery cycle life and the dynamic RC network parameters. Instead, the software sums the net resistance of the RC network resistors to the series resistance of the specific parameterized data. To populate the RC parameter data, subtract the net RC network resistance from the series resistance data.
This description to me is not very clear. The model contains the following data heads: Instantaneous resistance, R0 (SOC, T), first polarization resistance R1(SOC, T) and Tau, if I use one time-constant dynamics, which are of my interest. There is nothing mentioned explicitly about a series resistance from which the net RC resistance is to be subtracted. A demonstration of how to use this will be useful.
