This app demonstrates the Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) data processing and the fitting of the electrochemical data, particularly for Lithium-ion Capacitors (LICs) cell used in [1], using Nyquist plots and Genetic Algorithms. Through the data processing the equivalent circuit elements (R1,R2,C1,R3,W and C2) as shown in the figure are extracted. EIS is employed to diagnose degradation and estimate the State of Health (SOH) of LICs, as outlined in the attached paper.
Key Concepts:
- EIS: A method that measures impedance to analyze internal processes in energy storage systems like LICs.
- SOH Estimation: LICs degrade over time, affecting their capacity and performance. SOH helps monitor their health in real-time.
- Nyquist Plot: This graphical tool helps in visualizing the impedance data collected via EIS, showing how the internal resistance changes with aging.
How It Works:
- Upload Experimental Data: You can upload EIS data in .csv format.
- Plot the Data: The app plots a Nyquist curve based on the uploaded data and circuit parameters.
- Fit the Curve: Using Genetic Algorithms, the app fits a theoretical model to your experimental data, optimizing it to match key parameters like resistance and capacitance.
- Analyze SOH: By fitting the data and adjusting circuit parameters, the app estimates the SOH of LICs after having 5 different EIS at different 5 SOC.
