Karakterisering av batterisäkerhet (Swedish)
Abstract [sv]

Denna avhandling undersöker beteendet hos termisk rusning i cylindriska NMC811 litiumjonceller genom att analysera data erhållna via Accelerating Rate Calorimetry (ARC). Studien fokuserar på att analysera temperatur, tryck och massförlustandel vid olika laddningsgrader (SOC). Viktiga resultat inkluderar identifieringen av termoelementplacering som kritisk för noggrann temperaturdetektering, inverkan av SOC på intensiteten hos termisk rusning, och korrelationen mellan ventilationstryck och massförlust. Resultaten belyser vikten av flerparameteranalys vid karakterisering av termiska händelser och ger insikter för att förbättra batterisäkerhetsmekanismer. Forskningen bidrar till förståelsen av felmekanismer i högenergiceller och informerar framtida batteridesign och testprotokoll.

Abstract [en]

This thesis investigates the thermal runaway behavior of cylindrical NMC811 lithium-ion battery cells via analyzing the data obtained via Accelerating Rate Calorimetry (ARC). The study focuses on analyzing temperature, pressure, and mass loss fraction across various states of charge (SOC). Key findings include the identification of thermocouple placement as critical for accurate temperature detection, the influence of SOC on thermal runaway intensity, and the correlation between venting pressure and mass loss. The results highlight the importance of multi-parameter analysis in characterizing thermal events and provide insights for improving battery safety mechanisms. The research contributes to the understanding of failure mechanisms in high-energy cells and informs future battery design and testing protocols.
