Abstract

Although secondary batteries, called rechargeable batteries, are very important energy elements in modern society, their application is hindered by the typical nonlinear and irreversible characteristics. Precise monitoring of the state of health(SOH) for each battery cell on line is crucial for stable operation and proper management of them. This paper proposes diagnostic method of the SOH for a battery cell on line without interruption on its operation nor bad effect on its life. This paper practically diagnoses on 120 industrial batteries and provides some guide lines to decide whether to exchange or not.

현대사회에서 축전지라 불리우는 2차 전지는 그 용도가 중요하지만, 비선형적이고 다양한 파라메타에 따른 복잡한 특성 때문에 그 사용법에 있어서 발전에 제한을 받아왔다. 각 축전지 셀의 건강상태(SOH)를 실시간으로 정확히 파악하는 것은 장비의 안정된 운전과 원활한 관리를 위하여 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 축전지의 내부컨덕턴스를 측정하는 간접적인 방법에 의하여 장비의 운전이나 축전지의 수명에 영향을 주지 않고 납축전지의 건강상태(SOH)를 실시간으로 진단하는 방법을 제시하고, 실제로 120개의 납축전지에 대한 컨덕턴스 자료에 의하여 건강상태를 진단하고 교체시기를 판단한다.
