Patent ID: 11215673

Abstract:
A battery module 1 includes a group battery 2 in which batteries 30 (31 to 33) are connected in series, and an assessment evaluation unit 3 configured to calculate respective states of health of battery cells 10, in which the group battery 2 includes label elements 20 respectively connected in parallel with the battery cells 10 and configured such that respective impedance characteristics of the batteries 30 differ from one another, and the assessment evaluation unit 3 includes a measurement unit 42 configured to measure a first Cole-Cole plot of the group battery 2, a first calculation unit 44 configured to decompose the first Cole-Cole plot into respective second Cole-Cole plots of the batteries 30, a second calculation unit 44 configured to calculate respective third Cole-Cole plots of the battery cells 10 from the second Cole-Cole plots, and a third calculation unit 45 configured to calculate respective states of the battery cells 10 from the third Cole-Cole plots.
