Simulation of electrochemical behavior in Lithium ion battery during discharge process.

ABSTRACT: An electrochemical Lithium ion battery model was built taking into account the electrochemical reactions. The polarization was divided into parts which were related to the solid phase and the electrolyte mass transport of species, and the electrochemical reactions. The influence factors on battery polarization were studied, including the active material particle radius and the electrolyte salt concentration. The results showed that diffusion polarization exist in the positive and negative electrodes, and diffusion polarization increase with the conducting of the discharge process. The physicochemical parameters of the Lithium ion battery had the huge effect on cell voltage via polarization. The simulation data show that the polarization voltage has close relationship with active material particle size, discharging rate and ambient temperature.

Project description:Lithium-oxygen (Li-O2) batteries are nowadays among the most appealing next-generation energy storage systems in view of a high theoretical capacity and the use of transition-metal-free cathodes. Nevertheless, the practical application of these batteries is still hindered by limited understanding of the relationships between cell components and performances. In this work, we investigate a Li-O2 battery by originally screening different gas diffusion layers (GDLs) characterized by low specific surface area (<40 m2 g-1) with relatively large pores (absence of micropores), graphitic character, and the presence of a fraction of the hydrophobic PTFE polymer on their surface (<20 wt %). The electrochemical characterization of Li-O2 cells using bare GDLs as the support indicates that the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) occurs at potentials below 2.8 V vs Li+/Li, while the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) takes place at potentials higher than 3.6 V vs Li+/Li. Furthermore, the relatively high impedance of the Li-O2 cells at the pristine state remarkably decreases upon electrochemical activation achieved by voltammetry. The Li-O2 cells deliver high reversible capacities, ranging from ∼6 to ∼8 mA h cm-2 (referred to the geometric area of the GDLs). The Li-O2 battery performances are rationalized by the investigation of a practical Li+ diffusion coefficient (D) within the cell configuration adopted herein. The study reveals that D is higher during ORR than during OER, with values depending on the characteristics of the GDL and on the cell state of charge. Overall, D values range from ∼10-10 to ∼10-8 cm2 s-1 during the ORR and ∼10-17 to ∼10-11 cm2 s-1 during the OER. The most performing GDL is used as the support for the deposition of a substrate formed by few-layer graphene and multiwalled carbon nanotubes to improve the reaction in a Li-O2 cell operating with a maximum specific capacity of 1250 mA h g-1 (1 mA h cm-2) at a current density of 0.33 mA cm-2. XPS on the electrode tested in our Li-O2 cell setup suggests the formation of a stable solid electrolyte interphase at the surface which extends the cycle life.
