Cell Development
Battery cell development and industrialisation is inherently difficult to get right;
Challenge to establish clear cell design requirement and performance targets.
How do you down select the right materials and cell form factor for your application.
Multi-domain experience needed to develop cells; Electro-Chemistry, Mechanical, Electrical and Simulation Engineering.
How do you manging design and process changes as you scale from lab -> pilot -> industrialisation -> volume manufacture.
How do you manage the technology development to deliver the right product to the customer.
What is inside a battery cell?
Key thoughts and consideration in your cell development
Application and manufacturing demands are driving cell format evolution, materials selection as the need for cost reduction increases.
Choosing the right cell format for the target application really matters, many different pros and cons between cylindrical, pouch and prismatic cells.
Develop and innovate or get left behind in the race.
Make sure you consider the full cell life cycle in your design requirements; performance, manufacturing, circularity & recycling

Cell Rate Capability & Cycling
One of the first steps in the design process is to model expected C-rate capability, Charge/ Discharge Cycling
As you increase your c-rate demand on your cell the capacity can significantly reduce.
Understanding the voltage profile of your cell design in charge and discharge is vital to establishing the performance characteristics.
Energy vs Power Density Optimisation
Having clear understanding of the target applications demand / drive cycle will significantly aid the cell optimisation process. The graph below show how you can optimise for volumetric energy density or volumetric power density.
Cell Thermal Simulation
A fundamental component of the cell design process is understanding how the cell behaves under different demand and environmental conditions, the thermal response significantly affects the performance, cycle life, mechanical design and component selection of the cell.
