Abstract
This article deals with the design and simulation of the 30 kW secondary source using high current lithium polymer batteries and the implementation of the battery management algorithm for discharge in pulsed loads. The designed source can deliver 4 kWh of energy continuously in 8 minutes. The main problem is the inability of the batteries to provide a pulsed current with a large amplitude due to the flatness and internal impedance of the battery pack, and therefore it cannot properly respond to a pulsed load with a low pulse width. Since supercapacitors can be charged and discharged quickly, one of the possible solutions to solve this problem is to parallel the supercapacitor with the battery pack. In fact, with this work, the constant current component is supplied from the battery and the variable current component is taken from the supercapacitor. In addition, the charge/discharge efficiency of the supercapacitor at high frequencies is much higher than that of the battery, and as a result, the losses of the entire system are reduced. The results of this paper show that paralleling the supercapacitor with the battery pack improves the health of the battery by 21% and also the temperature increase due to losses will be less by 55˚C, which will help the batteries to work longer and It helps to increase their lifespan.
