| Abstract Scope |
One of the technical hurdles in widespread adoption of electric vehicles is the extreme fast charging of lithium-ion batteries under 15 minutes. The major reason is under fast charge of high energy density battery the degradation accelerates that could also lead to safety hazard. This is caused due to lithium plating on the graphite surface due to thermodynamic limit of lithium transport in graphite electrodes. In this talk we will present multiscale simulations of electrochemistry that models transport through graphite microstructures. We will study the kinetic and thermodynamic behavior across the interfaces that detect the environment and conditions at which lithium plating occurs. |
