Addressing Challenges Involved in Developing Battery Management Systems Using Simulink

Overview

Battery management systems (BMS) ensure maximum performance, safe operation, and optimal lifespan of battery pack energy storage systems under diverse charge-discharge and environmental conditions. In this one-hour webinar, presented by MathWorks and ICAT ASPIRE, you will learn how to: 

• Model battery cell models as a function of battery charge, temperature and scale the cell model up to a battery pack
• Monitor cell voltage and temperature, estimate state-of-charge (SOC) and state-of-health (SOH) across the pack
• Control charging and discharging rates, balance SOC across the battery cells, and isolate the battery from source and load when necessary
• Use simulations to model feedback and supervisory control algorithms
• Generate production-quality C/C++ code for target embedded processors
• Perform Hardware-In-Loop testing using Speedgoat real-time hardware
