A digital twin approach to improve the performance of EV battery cells.
Battery cell design optimization is intricate, involving a multitude of design parameters such as cell geometry, electrode micro-structure, and materials properties. These parameters often have conflicting effects on key requirements. For example, increasing electrode thickness can enhance energy density but may come at the expense of fast-charge capability.
In this 60-minute webinar, Xavier Conqui and Aziz Abdellahi from Simcenter demonstrate the effectiveness of an incremental engineering approach using digital twins in optimizing battery cell design against vehicle requirements.
With a focus on the electrochemical performance of battery cells, the experts will demonstrate how a digital twin approach helps to navigate the complexity of battery cell design optimization. They will delve into the crucial factors that shape EV battery requirements, including fast-charge capability and energy density.
