Research on the Prediction of the State-of-health of Starting Batteries of Diesel Engines

摘要

A study of state-of-health (SOH) prediction for diesel engine generator starting batteries is presented, the main purpose of which is to analyze the battery's state using the relationship between AC impedance and voltage. A sensing system capable of detecting battery open-circuit voltage and discharge current has been designed. The respective AC impedances at 100 and 50% battery SOH were obtained from a monitoring system, and linear regression was used to predict battery SOH. A new GS GTX7A-12B lead acid battery was used in the experiments and the results showed that there was a 11.265% difference between the actual battery SOH and that predicted by linear regression.
