Uneven electrical current distribution in a parallel-connected lithium-ion battery pack can result in different degradation rates and overcurrent issues in the cells. Understanding the electrical current dynamics can enhance configuration design and battery management of parallel connections.
Conferences > 2014 IEEE International Elect... Large-format Lithium-ion battery packs consist of the series and parallel connection of elemental cells, usually assembled into modules. The required voltage and capacity of the battery pack can be reached by various configurations of the elemental cells or modules.
To meet the power and energy requirements of the specific applications, lithium-ion battery cells often need to be connected in series to boost voltage and in parallel to add capacity . However, as cell performance varies from one to another [2, 3], imbalances occur in both series and parallel connections.
Six battery packs (each containing two cells connected in parallel, as depicted in Fig. 5) were tested using the method described below. For further reference within this paper, two parallel-connected cells are called a “cell group”. The current to each cell and the temperature of each cell were recorded.
It is thus worth investigating if different configurations lead to different performance of the battery pack in presence of a mismatch in the cell characteristics. A simulation tool is developed in this work and applied to a battery pack consisting of standard 12 V modules connected with various serial/parallel topologies.
The cells are connected in parallel to fulfill higher current capacity requirements if the device needs a higher current, but there is not enough space available for the battery. That device can use the parallel configuration to fit high-current capability in a small space.
