Type 0185

Number
185

Name
Lead-acid Battery

Description
TYPE185 is a quasi-static mathematical model of lead-acid battery, or Pb-accumulator. The model uses a simple equivalent circuit that relates the electrical currents, voltages, resistance (related to the concentration-overvoltage), and capacity. The main features of the model include gassing current losses, polarization effects (during charging and discharging), and calculation of equilibrium voltage at various states of charge (Saupe, 1993; Ulleberg, 1998).

Constant battery temperature (20 C) assumed throughout the model.
