The battery pack in this research consists of dozens of a small battery for energy storage. And this battery pack charges and discharges repeatedly at high capacity (25 ~ 50 V, 25 ~ 100 A). The high temperature which can be generated in this process has a bad effect to the lifetime and efficiency of batteries. Moreover these factors are related with maintenance cost. Therefore, we need to assess the thermal performance of the battery pack in advance using the experimental or numerical analysis. In this research, we analyzed voltage and surface temperature of one cell battery to calculate heat transfer using the numerical analysis. And the temperature of the battery surfaces and inside of the pack was also analyzed. As a result, we found out the appropriate pack structure which stacked five modules.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop tin oxide-flash composite for lithium Ion polymer battery. Tin oxide is one of the promising material as a electrode active material for lithium Ion polymer battery (LIPB). Tin-based oxides have theoretical volumetric and gravimetric capacities that are four and two times that of carbon, respectively. We investigated cyclic voltammetry and charge/discharge cycling of SnO-flyash/SPE/Li cells. The first discharge capacity of SnO-flyash composite anode was 720 mAh/g. The discharge capacity of SnO-flyash composite anode 412 and 314 mAh/g at cycle 2 and 10 at room temperature, respectively. The SnO-flyash composite anode with PVDF-PMMA-PC-EC-$LiClO_4$ electrolyte showed good capacity with cycling.

This paper presents an improved method to determine the internal parameters for improving accuracy of a lithium ion battery equivalent circuit model. Conventional methods for the parameter estimation directly using the curve fitting results generate the phenomenon to be incorrect due to the influence of the internal capacitive impedance. To solve this phenomenon, simple correction procedure with transient state analysis is proposed and added to the parameter estimation method. Furthermore, conventional dynamic equation for correction is enhanced with advanced RC impedance dynamic equation so that the proposed modeling results describe the battery dynamic characteristics more exactly. The improved accuracy of the battery model by the proposed modeling method is verified by single cell experiments compared to the other type of models.

An accurate state-of-charge (SOC) estimation ensures the reliable and efficient operation of a lithium-ion battery management system. On the basis of a combined electrochemical model, this study adopts the forgetting factor least squares algorithm to identify battery parameters and eliminate the influence of test conditions. Then, it implements online SOC estimation with high accuracy and low run time by utilizing the low computational complexity of the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) and the rapid convergence of a particle filter (PF). The PF algorithm is adopted to decrease convergence time when the initial error is large; otherwise, the UKF algorithm is used to approximate the actual SOC with low computational complexity. The effect of the number of sampling particles in the PF is also evaluated. Finally, experimental results are used to verify the superiority of the combined method over other individual algorithms.

Rate constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the nucleophilic substitution reactions of p-and m-nitrophenyl 2-furoates (4 and 5, respectively) with alkali metal ethoxides ($EtO^-M^+$) in absolute ethanol at 25$^{\circ}$C. The reactivity of $EtO^-M^+$ toward 4 is in the order $EtO^-K^+$ > $EtO^-Na^+$> $EtO^-Li^+$ > $EtO^-K^+$+ 18-crown-6 ether. This is further confirmed by an ion pairing treatment method. The present result indicates that (1) ion paired $EtO^-M^+$ is more reactive than dissociated $EtO^-$ ; (2) the alkali metal ions ($K^+,\;Na^+,\;Li^+$) behave as a catalyst; (3) the catalytic effect increases with increasing the size of the metal ion. A similar result has been obtained for the reaction of 5, however, the catalytic effects shown by the metal ions are more significant in the reaction of 5 than in that of 4.

본 연구에서는 카본전극의 표면개질에 따른 리튬이온 전지의 전지특성 변화에 대해서 연구하였다. 즉, mesocarbon microbeads(MCMB) 카본에 에폭시 수지(resin)를 코팅시킴으로서 카본전극 표면에 개질시켰으며, 이에 따른 전극의 전기화학적 특성을 고찰하였다. 에폭시 수지에 의한 카본의 표면코팅은 30%의 H$_2$SO$_4$용액에서 2시간 동안 refluxing한 MCMB를 에폭시 수지를 용해시킨 THF(tetrahydrofuran) 용액에 넣어 혼합함으로써 MCMB 표면에 에폭시 수지가 코팅되도록 하였다. 이렇게 에폭시 수지가 코팅된 MCMB를 약 1000-130$0^{\circ}C$로 열처리하여 고분해능 투과전자현미경으로 관찰한 결과, 코팅층은 비정질 카본 구조를 갖게됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 에폭시 수지에 의하여 코팅된 MCMB는 코팅되지 않은 MCMB보다 더 높은 BET 비표면적을 나타내었다. Li/MCMB 전지 cell을 만들어 충방전시험을 수행한 결과, 에폭시 수지에 의하여 코팅된 MCMB로 만든 전극이 더 우수한 충방전 용량과 싸이클 특성을 나타내었다. 에폭시 수지 코팅으로 전극 표면을 개질시킴으로서 전지특성이 개선된 원인에 관하여 에폭시 코팅의 결정구조와 전극계면에서의 부동태 피막(passivation film) 형성과 연계하여 논의하였다.

In this work, soft carbons produced by pyrolysis of petroleum and coal-tar pitch were used as the negative electrode for Li-ion batteries. We studeid the charge/discharge capacity and the interfacial reaction of these electrodes by constructing a half cell. Charge/discharge property was studied by a constant-current step and the interfacial reaction between the electrolyte and the surface of a carbon electrode was studied by the cyclic voltammetry. The initial charge/discharge capacity for the coal-tar pitch carbon increased exceedingly with the heat treatment temperature. On hte other hand, the capacity of the petroleum pitch carbon increased with temperature up to 1000$^{\circ}C$, thereafter decreased continuously. While the charge capacity decreased with the cycle number, the reversibility increased above 90%. In addition, the thermal stability and crystallization of petroleum and coal-tar pitches were analyzed by TGA and XRD, respectively.

Li ion battery have many advantages such as high energy density, high voltage and low self discharge, so it will replace conventional Ni/Cd battery. But, charge-discharge characterization of Li battery is controlled by weight ratio of electrodes (Cathode/Anode). So, we performed a study on relation between charge/discharge characterization and weight ratio (cathode/anode).
