Battery Life PredictionπŸ”‹

The Hawaii Natural Energy Institute conducted an analysis on 14 NMC-LCO 18650 batteries, each with a nominal capacity of 2.8 Ah. These batteries underwent over 1000 charge-discharge cycles at a temperature of 25Β°C, using a constant current-constant voltage (CC-CV) charging method at a C/2 rate and a discharge rate of 1.5C.

Objective: Develop a predictive model for the remaining battery life of the batteries based on several features such as discharge time, voltage, charging time, etc.

Data:

The data includes measurements from charging and discharging 14 batteries until the remaining useful life is reached.

  • Cycle Index: number of cycle
  • F1: Discharge Time (s)
  • F2: Time at 4.15V (s)
  • F3: Time Constant Current (s)
  • F4: Decrement 3.6-3.4V (s)
  • F5: Max. Voltage Discharge (V)
  • F6: Min. Voltage Charge (V)
  • F7: Charging Time (s)
  • Total time (s)

The cycle count is recorded for each charge/discharge cycle. When the battery reaches a predefined lower charge capacity, the remaining useful life is set to zero and preceding cycles are recorded as 1, 2, 3...as the target variable RUL (Remaining Useful Life).

  • RUL: target

Methods:

  • Data cleansing, visualization (e.g., pair plots, joint plots), and exploration.
  • Application of multiple regression methods including Linear Regression, Multiple Linear Regression, PyTorch, and TensorFlow models.
  • Splitting data into training and testing sets.
  • Regression comparison
  • View Remaining Useful Life prediction versus measured values
