To enhance user convenience and compete with their gasoline counterparts, EVs need fast charging methods to achieve equivalent refueling times. However, fast charging can adversely affect the health and cycle life of the battery due to excessive temperature rise resulting in accelerated degradation of the battery chemistry. Especially in subzero conditions, the chemical reactions are much slower, resulting in increased internal impedance. This leads to a higher rate of temperature rise in battery temperature and eventually faster battery degradation. This thesis proposes a closed-loop Multistage-constant-current, Temperature-controlled (MCC-TC), Health-conscious Fast Charging strategy, which modulates the charging current considering the battery temperature as feedback. The experimental validation on an automotive grade battery cell depicts lower temperature rise and rate of temperature rise following the MCC-TC charging algorithm compared to the conventional Constant-Current Constant-Voltage (CC-CV) charging algorithm.","abstract_html":"The economical operation and wider adaptability of an electric vehicle (EV) is highly governed by the energy storage system used in the vehicle.
