Lithium-ion battery thermal-electrochemical model-based state estimation using orthogonal collocation and a modified extended Kalman filter

This paper investigates the state estimation of a high-fidelity spatially resolved thermal- electrochemical lithium-ion battery model commonly referred to as the pseudo two-dimensional model. The partial-differential algebraic equations (PDAEs) constituting the model are spatially discretised using Chebyshev orthogonal collocation enabling fast and accurate simulations up to high C-rates. This implementation of the pseudo-2D model is then used in combination with an extended Kalman filter algorithm for differential-algebraic equations to estimate the states of the model. The state estimation algorithm is able to rapidly recover the model states from current, voltage and temperature measurements. Results show that the error on the state estimate falls below 1 % in less than 200 s despite a 30 % error on battery initial state-of-charge and additive measurement noise with 10 mV and 0.5 K standard deviations.Comment: Submitted to the Journal of Power Source

An effective spectral collocation method for the direct solution of high-order ODEs

This paper reports a new Chebyshev spectral collocation method for directly solving high-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The construction of the Chebyshev approximations is based on integration rather than conventional differentiation. This use of integration allows the multiple boundary conditions to be incorporated more efficiently. Numerical results show that the proposed formulation significantly improves the conditioning of the system and yields more accurate results and faster convergence rates than conventional formulations

A new approach for solving nonlinear Thomas-Fermi equation based on fractional order of rational Bessel functions

In this paper, the fractional order of rational Bessel functions collocation method (FRBC) to solve Thomas-Fermi equation which is defined in the semi-infinite domain and has singularity at $x = 0$ and its boundary condition occurs at infinity, have been introduced. We solve the problem on semi-infinite domain without any domain truncation or transformation of the domain of the problem to a finite domain. This approach at first, obtains a sequence of linear differential equations by using the quasilinearization method (QLM), then at each iteration solves it by FRBC method. To illustrate the reliability of this work, we compare the numerical results of the present method with some well-known results in other to show that the new method is accurate, efficient and applicable

Boundary knot method: A meshless, exponential convergence, integration-free, and boundary-only RBF technique

Based on the radial basis function (RBF), non-singular general solution and dual reciprocity principle (DRM), this paper presents an inheretnly meshless, exponential convergence, integration-free, boundary-only collocation techniques for numerical solution of general partial differential equation systems. The basic ideas behind this methodology are very mathematically simple and generally effective. The RBFs are used in this study to approximate the inhomogeneous terms of system equations in terms of the DRM, while non-singular general solution leads to a boundary-only RBF formulation. The present method is named as the boundary knot method (BKM) to differentiate it from the other numerical techniques. In particular, due to the use of non-singular general solutions rather than singular fundamental solutions, the BKM is different from the method of fundamental solution in that the former does no need to introduce the artificial boundary and results in the symmetric system equations under certain conditions. It is also found that the BKM can solve nonlinear partial differential equations one-step without iteration if only boundary knots are used. The efficiency and utility of this new technique are validated through some typical numerical examples. Some promising developments of the BKM are also discussed.Comment: 36 pages, 2 figures, Welcome to contact me on this paper: Email: [email protected] or [email protected]
