Patent attributes
An electrochemical battery system includes at least one electrochemical cell, a thermal control system operably connected to the at least one electrochemical cell, a memory in which a physics-based model of the at least one electrochemical cell is stored and in which program instructions are stored, and a controller operably connected to the at least one electrochemical cell, the thermal control system and the memory. The controller is configured to execute the program instructions to identify a first requested operation, obtain a first generated target temperature which is based on the physics-based model and the identified first requested operation, and control the thermal control system based upon the obtained first target temperature while controlling the at least one electrochemical cell based upon the identified first requested operation.
