Novel In-Cell Instrumentation Methods for Large Format Prismatic Battery Cells project

WMG正在开发未来的“智能电池”技术，包括直接嵌入电池结构中的新型传感、数据处理和控制方法。特别感兴趣的是内部温度，压力，机械应力和电极电位的原位测量。这个博士生项目将把我们目前的研究扩展到更大规格的电池，这越来越多地成为许多应用的选择格式。更大的尺寸将意味着在一系列用例中需要不同的传感器技术，包括材料表征，性能和安全评估。NPL将提供密切的监督和访问技术专家的诊断，测试协议和模拟主导的设计新的锂离子电池技术和系统。

WMG are developing future "smart battery" technology that includes novel sensing, data processing and control methods embedded directly within the structure of the battery. Of particular interest is the in-situ measurement of internal temperature, pressure, mechanical stress and electrode potential. This PhD studentship will expand our current research into larger format batteries, which are increasingly the format of choice for many applications.The larger size will mean that different sensor technologies are required across a range of use-cases including material characterisation, performance and safety evaluation. NPL will provide close supervision and access to technology experts on diagnostics, testing protocols and simulation-led design of new lithium ion battery technology and systems.
