In this study, the thermal runaway of NCM and LFP batteries were compared and analyzed through numerical analysis under various conditions. Comparing the thermal runaway of the NCM622 (18650) battery cell and the LFP (18650) battery cell through oven test simulation, the LFP battery did not show thermal runaway, whereas the NCM622 battery temperature increased to 710℃ in 12 minutes. To observe the thermal runaway and propagation of the prismatic LFP battery cell, the internal temperature was set at 200℃ and the oven test simulation was conducted. It was found that thermal runaway occurred at 391℃ after 47 minutes. As a result of observing thermal runaway propagation by placing five NCM622 and LFP battery cells, the thermal runaway propagation was clearly observed in the case of the NCM622 battery, but in the case of the LFP battery, thermal runaway was not observed after the first cell. From the third battery cell, it was confirmed that the temperature change was very insignificant, and through this, it is considered that the LFP battery is relatively safe compared to the NCM battery in terms of the thermal runaway propagation of the battery.

This paper presents the methods for the modeling and parameter optimization of the electric vehicle battery. The state variables of the battery are defined, and the test methods for battery parameters are presented. The state-space equation, which consists of four state variables, and the output equation, which is a combination of to-be-determined parameters, are shown. The parameter optimization method is the key point of this study. The least square of the modeling error can be used as an initial value of the multivariable function. It is equivalent to find the minimum value of the error function to obtain optimal parameters from multivariable function. The SIMULINK model is presented, and the 10-hour full operational range test results are shown to verify the performance of the model. The modeling error for 25 degrees is approximately 1% for full operational ranges. The comments to enhance modeling accuracy are shown in the conclusion.

In this paper, a fuel cell battery charger system, which is capable of bi-directional power transmission without built in battery, has been designed and fabricated. Performance and states of the notebook battery in bi-directional power transmission using the manufactured system have been tested. Before initializing the fuel cell charging system for 1 minute, the system received 10 W of electric power from notebook battery. Then the fuel cell charging system has been normal charging to notebook battery by 50 W. As a result of the experiment, the state of the notebook battery discharged less than 5% at the initial charging time, but then it has been charged. This results proves bi-directional power transmission in notebook computers increase the availability of fuel cell chargers.

A lithium-ion battery is a rechargeable battery that uses the reversible reduction of lithium ions to store energy and is the predominant battery type in many industrial and consumer electronics. The lithium-ion batteries are essential to ensure they operate safely. We conducted an exposure assessment five days after a fire in a battery-testing facility. We assessed some of the potentially hazardous materials after a lithium-ion battery fire.We sampled total suspended particles, hydrogen fluoride, and lithium with real-time monitoring of particulate matter (PM) 1, 2.5, and 10 micrometers (㎛). The area sampling results indicated that primary potential hazardous materials such as dust, hydrogen fluoride, and lithium were below the recommended limits suggested by the Korean Ministry of Labor and the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists Threshold Limit Values. Based on our assessment, workers were allowed to return to work.

As part of the green growth, The Green Car has attracted wide attention. Types of the Green Car are Electric Vehicle, Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle, Hybrid Electric Vehicle, Fuel Cell Vehicle and Clean Diesel Vehicle. Of these, The electric vehicle is equipped with the BDU(Battery Disconnecting Unit). BDU is supplying stable battery power and blocking it to protect electrical system of the electric vehicle. The BDU consists of electric components such as current sensor, fuse and pre-charge resistor. These must pass Voltage withstand test, Salt mist test, Thermal shock test, Vibration test and Short-circuit test commonly to verify reliability of the electric components. In addition, The current sensor should be verified whether normal operation. The breaking capacity of fuse should be verified. The durability of pre-charge resistor should be verified by supplying battery power and blocking it repeatedly. The reliability of BDU as well as the electric vehicle is secured by verifying the reliability of electric components. In addition, It will contribute to the acceleration and promotion of Green Car Technology.

In this paper, the vibration load and analysis results for automotive battery supporter were performed to provide efficient vibration tolerance performance prediction methods for single-product vibration tolerance testing, and the major influencing factors and considerations for setting up single-unit vibration tolerance tests were reviewed. A common applicable standard load was applied to efficiently predict the performance of single-unit vibrations through the frequency response analysis technique. The results similar to test results can be predicted by checking vulnerable parts of the vehicle components for vibration loads and applying scale factor to standard loads. In addition, it was confirmed that the test conditions with a frequency generating the same durability severity as the endurance test are needed for accurate prediction of the durability of the single-unit vibration tolerance test conditions, and the acceleration and frequency with the conditions that there is no significant nonlinear phenomena in the vibration system are established during the single-unit vibration tolerance test conditions.

본 논문은 리튬이온전지의 불꽃방전에 의한 폭발위험성에 관한 연구로서 휴대용기기의 전원으로 사용되는 리튬이온전지(일반용, 노트북용)를 시료로 선정하고, 폭발성 시험가스인 메탄, 프로판, 에틸렌, 수소를 대상으로 IEC형 불꽃점화 시험장치를 이용하여 불꽃점화실험을 실시하여 불꽃방전에 의한 폭발위험성을 규명하였다. 또한, 사고 시 단락전류에 의한 자체점화 가능성을 확인하고자 열화상카메라를 이용하여 온도변화를 측정하였다. 실험결과 리튜이온전지는 폭발성가스가 존재하는 폭발위험장소에서 사용할 때는 안전에 각별히 주의하여 사용 설계되어야 한다.

국방 분야에서 유도무기와 같은 일회성 무기체계는 제작 후 오랜 기간 보관되어지기 때문에 수명 예측이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 유도무기에 사용되는 리튬 2차 전지에 대해 수명을 확인하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 연구를 위해 5년 이상 무기체계에 탑재되어 사용된 리튬 2차 전지를 확보하였으며, 비기능 검사를 수행하여 외적인 변화나 고장이 발생하였는지 확인하였다. 비기능 검사가 끝난 후 리튬 2차 전지의 성능 측정을 위한 방전 시험을 실시하였으며, 방전 시험 시 전지를 규격에 맞추어 충전한 후 방전 시험을 실시하였다. 방전 시험을 통해 초기 충전 전압, 방전 시간, 전지 온도 등을 측정하였으며, 이를 기존에 측정된 데이터와 비교하여 성능 변화 경향을 확인하였다. F-검정과 일원분산분석(One-way ANOVA, Analysis of Variance), 회귀 분석을 통해 노화가 발생하였는지 확인하였으며, 회귀 분석을 통해 측정된 근사식을 통해 리튬 전지의 수명을 추정하였다. 분산분석 결과 p-value 값이 기준값 0.05보다 작은 것을 알 수 있었으며, 일정 시간이 경과하였을 때에 전지의 성능이 15% 이상 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 성능 변화는 리튬 폴리머 셀의 물성 변화로 인해 일어나는 것으로 추정된다.

As ESS safety issues increase recently, there is a need to more precisely monitor the temperature of the ESS. In this paper, DTS technology for temperature monitoring of ESS batteries is introduced and the temperature measurement principle is explained. The temperature of the battery module is measured using the DTS system, and the thermal deviation between battery cells inside the battery module is analyzed. In order to analyze how thermal imbalance affects the charging and discharging performance of the battery, an accelerated degradation test was conducted. Cycle life characteristics analysis, battery surface temperature change, and AC impedance characteristics were conducted to analyze how the performance of battery cells differs according to temperature conditions.
