Abstract:
Embodiments describe a battery system that includes a first battery module coupled to a regenerative braking system and a control module that controls operation of the battery system by: determining a predicted driving pattern over a prediction horizon using a driving pattern recognition model based in part on a battery current and a previous driving pattern; determining a predicted battery resistance of the first battery module over the prediction horizon using a recursive battery model based in part on the predicted driving pattern, the battery current, a present bus voltage, and a previous bus voltage; determining a target trajectory of a battery temperature of the first battery module over a control horizon using an objective function; and controlling magnitude and duration of electrical power supplied from the regenerative such that a predicted trajectory of the battery temperature is guided toward the target trajectory of the battery temperature during the control horizon.

Claim (Index 18):
A method of testing a battery module, comprising:\n determining, using processing circuitry, a predicted driving pattern of an automotive vehicle in which a battery module is to be deployed; predicting, using the processing circuitry, operational parameters of the battery module expected to occur when the automotive vehicle performs the predicted driving pattern based at least in part on a control scheme implemented by the automotive vehicle; determining, using the processing circuitry, a predicted fuel economy contribution of the battery module based at least on a fuel economy model that describes a relationship between the predicted fuel economy contribution of the battery module and the operational parameters of the battery module expected to occur when the automotive vehicle performs the predicted driving pattern; determining, using the processing circuitry, a fuel economy contribution threshold associated with the automotive vehicle; and indicating, using the processing circuitry, that the battery module is suitable to be deployed in the automotive vehicle when the predicted fuel economy contribution of the battery module is greater than or equal to the fuel economy contribution threshold associated with the automotive vehicle.
