Abstract

Electric cars have undergone many developments in the current digital era. This is to avoid the use of increasingly scarce fuel. Recent studies on electric cars show that battery estimation is an interesting topic to be implemented directly. The battery estimation strategy is carried out by the Battery Management System (BMS). BMS is an indispensable part of electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles to ensure optimal and reliable operation of regulating, monitoring, and protecting batteries. A reliable BMS can extend battery life by setting voltage, temperature, and charging and discharging current limits. The main estimation strategy used by BMS is battery fault, SOH, and battery life. Battery State of Health (SOH) is part of the information provided by the BMS to avoid battery damage and failure. SOC is the proportion of battery capacity SOH is a measure of battery health. This study aims to develop a method for estimating SOH simultaneously using Coulomb Counting and Open Circuit Voltage (OCV) algorithms. The battery is modeled to obtain battery parameters and components of internal resistance, capacitance polarization and OCV voltage source. Several tests were implemented in this research by applying the constant current (CC)-charge CC-discharge test. The state-space system is then formed to apply the Coulomb Counting and OCV algorithms so that SOH can be estimated simultaneously. The OCV-SOC function is obtained in the form of a tenth order polynomial and the battery model parameters say that these parameters change with the health of the battery. The results of the model validation are able to accurately model the battery with an average relative error of 0.027%. Coulomb Counting resulted in an accurate SOH estimation with an error of 3.4%.
