This paper explores a novel alternative to sensing battery current by measuring terminal voltages and cell temperatures and using an unknown input observer to estimate the battery current. An accurate model of a LiFePO 4 cell is created, validated, and then used to characterize a model of the proposed current estimation technique.
We use copper foil with a thickness between 0.125mm-0.5mm and a width from 30mm to 150mm to make copper flexible busbars, also called flexible copper shunt. This kind of laminate shunt has great flexibility and is usually used for thermal expansion joints in copper bus bar systems, transformer connections, and rotary connections for high-voltage switch gears.
The model used a number of battery parameters as the input variables including battery surface temperature, battery current, battery state of polarization with varying time constant, and battery SOC. The model was used to estimate the battery terminal voltage. It was observed that a short time after an abrupt shift in current, a small time constant was

The present study describes the sustainability of friction stir welded (FSW) busbar at different C-rates by simulating a Li-ion battery attached to a busbar, then correlating the heat generation of simulation results with an experimental result at 1, 1.5, and 2C-rates.
Current Carrying Capacity: Busbars must withstand high currents during EV operation. Copper has the best current carrying capacity, followed by aluminum and tin-plated copper. Weight: Lighter busbars reduce overall vehicle weight, contributing to increased range. Aluminum is the lightest, followed by tin-plated copper and copper.

This article develops representative busbar circuits with different fidelities to simulate the behavior of cells within a battery module and analyses the influence of cell-to-cell
One of the key components of Li-ion batteries is the busbar, which plays a crucial role in ensuring efficient and safe operation of the battery.What is a Busbar?A busbar is a thick, flat metal strip used to conduct electricity within a battery pack. In lithium-ion batteries, busbars are typically made from copper or aluminium and are used to connect the individual cells within the battery
Therefore, current limit estimation or State of Power (SoP) estimation is a continually evolving map. Typically the time window will be from 1 second to 30 seconds for an electric vehicle. References. Sagar Bharathraj,

More than one is a battery. To say a group of cells have "cell terminals" is confusing; do you mean "battery terminals?" 9 cells in series = 2mΩ * 9 = 18mΩ. 3.65V*9/.018Ω = 1825A max possible short-circuit current. If they have to deliver this >50% of the time then look for buss bars which can handle about that much current to keep heating

The current is an estimated continuous rating and plotted versus the cross-sectional area in mm 2. The gradient of the “straight line fit” shows that 5.9A/mm 2 is a rough estimate for copper busbar size. However, to be on the safe side of this I would initially size at 5A/mm 2 before doing the detailed electrothermal analysis.
The gradient of the “straight line fit” shows that 5.9A/mm 2 is a rough estimate for copper busbar size. However, to be on the safe side of this I would initially size at 5A/mm 2 before doing the detailed electrothermal analysis. An important aspect to consider in all busbar designs is to consider the environment and the materials.
Compared to copper busbars aluminium offers a weight and cost save, but requires an increase in cross-sectional area of ~62%. Hence aluminium busbars need more volume for packaging. The highest conductivity is achieved by high purity aluminium (purity of 99.9 wt% Al and higher) in soft temper.
There was no substantial literature on the busbar attached with a Li-ion battery. Hence, the present study details the application of an effective FSWed Al-Cu busbar to a Li-ion battery pack. The FSW busbar has advantages over other welding techniques in the perspective of mechanical and electrical properties.
Thus, the sample S 3 had a microhardness of 238 HV and a grain size of 7.85 μm, resulting in a smaller electrical resistivity of 2.87 10−5 Ω cm. The busbar with Al-rich (Al 2 Cu) IMC exhibits bad electrical properties with an electrical resistivity of 4.29 10 −5 Ω cm, which is 33.1% higher resistive than the Cu-rich (Al 4 Cu 9) IMC.
Thus, the specific contact resistances for the busbars S 1, S 2, and S 3 are determined to be 3 × 10 −8 Ω m 2, 2.7 × 10 −8 Ω m 2, and 2.5 × 10 −8 Ω m 2, respectively, during the simulation. Fig. 2, Fig. 3 illustrate the discharge and charge simulation contours at the end of 20 min at 1, 1.5, and 2C-rate, respectively.
