Abstract: In electric vehicle applications, lithium-ion batteries are usually used in parallel connections to meet the power and energy requirements. However, the impedance and capacity inconsistencies among the parallel-connected batteries (P-LiBs) can lead to uneven current distribution, resulting in accelerated aging andsafety issues.
Although the voltage of parallel batteries is the same, the current of cells may be different due to inconsistent parameters. In future research work, the parameter inconsistency is considered in the modeling, which will help to establish a more accurate battery pack model.
Internal resistance variation among parallel cells can result in branch current inconsistency and then uneven heat, which further causes temperature inconsistency. Internal resistance variation can cause voltage inconsistency of series connection. Uneven temperature can result in further voltage variation.
Inconsistency mechanism of batteries is described from manufacture and use. Evaluation methods of battery inconsistency are systematically reviewed. Inconsistency improvement measures are compared and discussed. Consistency optimization scheme under fixed topology is validated. Future research challenges and outlooks are prospected.
