A Study in Enhancing Battery Management Systems for Diverse Battery Types

Abstract

The rapid advancement of battery technology has led to an increasing interest in the utilization of various battery types for a wide range of applications. To optimize the performance, efficiency, and safety of these batteries, the implementation of an effective battery management system is imperative. Within the scope of this study, the battery management system responsible for overseeing the management of battery packs in electric vehicles is examined in terms of its utilization for monitoring fundamental conditions such as current, voltage, and temperature of batteries. Furthermore, the applicability of this battery management system in different types of battery packs is evaluated. With the aim of advancing the sustainability and efficiency of management systems capable of overseeing single-type batteries, the focus of attention lies in the capacity to manage diverse battery types. The developed battery management system is subject to testing on a variety of battery types, thereby investigating the methods by which these batteries can be optimally managed. The resultant data is collected within a computer-based environment, and analyses are conducted to derive findings from this information. This study illustrates the adaptability of the battery management system to varying current, voltage, and temperature parameters, enabling its effective deployment across different battery types. In this context, the potential to mitigate environmental pollution is envisioned through the implementation of more sustainable battery management systems.
