Do You Look for the Best battery cell design?
Find it with Batemo!
Challenge
Today, battery cell design is truly an art. It means to transfer cell design parameters to performance targets and vice versa. You must optimally balance the complicated interactions of all cell components that couple electrically, chemically, thermally and physically. This requires great expertise and deep know-how. Something that is missing when technology evolves fast – like in the battery cell design business.
This is true for many aspects of battery cell design. Let’s make some examples:
- Which electrode material is the best for my application?
- How does my A-sample perform in the upscaled target size?
- How should I design the cell to allow fast charging?
- Can I optimize my electrode microstructure?
- How does a multi-tab or tabless design influence the dynamic performance?
Finding reliable answers to these questions fast is difficult… very difficult.
Solution
You need the ultimate tool for battery cell design. And that is what the Batemo Cell Designer is. It combines Batemo’s modeling technology with an efficient methodology that leads to success.
The underlying idea is to never start from scratch but with your latest cell, electrode, electrolyte or material. First, we create a physical model for you – the most accurate available, guaranteed – and integrate it into the Batemo Cell Designer. Using the tool, you maximize your cell technology and build better battery cells with less resources a lot faster.
If you have a physical, parametrized and validated model…
…you can develop a methodology to design your next-generation battery cell on target.
Fast
Identifying the best battery cell design requires thousands of simulations. The Batemo Cell Designer runs within a full automation backend and simulates within seconds.
Physical
Varying battery cell designs with simulations requires to precisely describe all relevant electrical, chemical, thermal and physical processes inside the cell. The Batemo Cell Designer builds on Batemo’s unique modeling technology and gets the physics right!
Accurate
The Batemo Cell Designer builds on the Batemo Cell Model, the most accurate battery cell model there is – guaranteed! We always demonstrate the validity through extensive measurements that prove highest accuracy.
The methodology we apply is extremely thorough and novel in battery cell design. It combines Batemo simulations, prototyping and testing in the most efficient way possible.
-
We integrate the model of your cell into the Batemo Cell Designer.
-
You perform a simulation study using the Batemo Cell Designer to predict your performance targets under meaningful cell design parameter variations.
-
Build the next prototype and validate!
-
Iterate through the steps 1 to 3 until you reach your targets.
This is great but let’s get specific: In the graph below, you see the initial battery cell design of a real cell marked as a red diamond. The orange dots show other cells BATEMO worked with and demonstrates our deep know-how of the technological landscape. On that basis, we vary the battery cell design parameters and show in the red-to-green color-code area which targets of gravimetric energy density, gravimetric power density and charging time are reached.
The next prototype cell design for prototyping is marked as an orange star. The cell design is significantly better: energy density is about the same, but power density increases by about 30% and the charging time is almost cut in half.
So why wait? Get your hands on the Batemo Cell Designer or let Batemo Engineering do your initial design study so that you can take over from there. With BATEMO, you have the perfect partner to push your battery cell designs to the next level!
