A Review on the Battery Balancing and Reconfiguration Methods
Abstract
With the development of electric vehicles, battery cells are connected in serial/parallel to cope the energy and power demand. In such serial connected battery strings, the battery imbalance is inevitable. Battery balancing and reconfiguration methods are considered as the most important methods to keep the battery string in better performance. As a results, more and more literatures have been published recently. This paper tries to give a survey of the state-of-the-art methods of the balancing and reconfiguration. Their principal features are illustrated, and the main pros and cons are provided.
