Get a quoteUneven electrical current distribution in a parallel-connected lithium-ion battery pack can result in different degradation rates and overcurrent issues in the cells. Understanding the electrical current dynamics can enhance configuration design and battery management of parallel connections.
To meet the power and energy requirements of the specific applications, lithium-ion battery cells often need to be connected in series to boost voltage and in parallel to add capacity . However, as cell performance varies from one to another [2, 3], imbalances occur in both series and parallel connections.
The physical model was developed to simulate the operation of the parallel-connected packs. The experimental results and simulation indicate that with different degraded cells in parallel, there could be capacity loss and large difference in discharge current, which may cause further accelerated degradation and more serious inconsistency problem.
By looking at the current gradient between cells, they concluded that connecting more cells in parallel can reduce the probability of inconsistency and thus prolong the pack’s lifetime. However, this conclusion may not hold true when the capacity range of cells in each parallel connection is not the same.
This phenomenon suggests that matching internal resistance is critical in ensuring long cycle life of the battery pack. Bruen et al. investigated the current distribution and cell temperature within parallel connections.
It may be successful with an old and new pack but I personally would only join them if the cells had lived similar lives together. Otherwise one pack will just be dumping energy into the other pack to keep them both at the same voltage level. Thanks for contributing an answer to Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange!
