Battery Modeling and Simulation

GT-SUITE offers a complete and flexible solution for modeling battery systems throughout all stages of the battery or electrified vehicle design process. In GT-SUITE, electrical-equivalent or electrochemical battery models can be discretized to calculate variations in current, temperature, and state of charge (SOC) at a module-to-module, cell-to-cell, or intracellular level.

GT-SUITE now integrates with AutoLion-GT, the industry-leading Lithium-ion battery simulation software. AutoLion-GT predictively models the electrochemical processes within Lithium-ion batteries.  Included with every installation of AutoLion-GT is a comprehensive electrochemical materials database, reducing the burden for laboratory testing of electrochemical properties.  AutoLion-GT empowers engineers to predictively model battery aging phenomenon as part of an integrated simulation.

Component-level studies, including battery temperature distribution and Battery Management Systems verification, are also performed using GT-SUITE.
