Batteries for upcoming electric vehicle mobility : a literature survey

Abstract EN

The main problems electric vehicles are facing are the batteries, costs and charging facilities.

Because of the limit in range of BEVs the cars that going to be introduced into the market
most likely will be small city cars.

A battery is a device that converts chemical energy into
electrical energy and vice versa.

Usually it has two terminals–Positive Cathode and Negative
Anode.

During potential changing (charging or discharging) the system depends upon the
chemical reaction of electrolyte (liquid or paste solution).

Basically, electrolyte allows the
ions to flow between the two terminals (cathode and anode) or the battery active materials
which allows current to flow out of the battery to perform required work.

The uses of battery
are knows no bound.

For any electronic devices that needs high energy storage capacity
(electric vehicle, electric generator or IPS etc.

) or for any device that needs low energy output
(portable devices like cell phone, laptop etc.

), battery is used for either to storage energy or to
act as a power supply.

Along with technological improvement the storage capacity, size, life
time is improving also the new uses of batteries are also emerging day by day.

For our solar
car we are using battery for a media to store energy to have continuous output.

In order to do
that we need specific specification of battery to perform our task successfully which needs
clear understanding of its parameters as well as its nature of behavior.

In this paper we will try
to show the precise purpose and how we are expecting the battery to be executed through our
simulated data.
