A monolithic, mortar‐based interface coupling and solution scheme for finite element simulations of lithium‐ion cells

Abstract: Summary This work introduces a novel, mortar‐based coupling scheme for electrode‐electrolyte interfaces in 3‐dimensional finite element models for lithium‐ion cells and similar electrochemical systems. The coupling scheme incorporates the widely applied Butler‐Volmer charge transfer kinetics, but conceptually also works for other interface equations. Unlike conventional approaches, the coupling scheme allows flexible mesh generation for the electrode and electrolyte phases with nonmatching meshes at electrode‐… Show more

“…This allows flexible and independent grid generation on the two domains: a finer mesh in the solid domain, where strong interfacial gradients in Li concentration are expected due to its low solid diffusivity, and a coarser mesh in the electrolyte domain, where Butler-Volmer interface integrals are evaluated and then fluxes are projected onto the particle side through a discrete interface mapping. Fang et al [118] tested the mortar-based approach up to an interfacial node number ratio of 2.5:1, thus cutting the overall mesh requirements by one third, showing no numerical A c c e p t e d M a n u s c r i p t perturbations at the solid/electrolyte interface and resulting in spatial convergence in the same fashion of conventional matching-node coupling [118].…”

“…Equations (1), (3), (12), (16)(17), (20), (27) and (28) are coupled and highly nonlinear. Furthermore, the interface conditions, (55a-55b), (57) and (58a-58c) and many coefficients in the partial differential equations depend on the primary variables, introducing further nonlinearity to the system of equations.…”

“…In related work, reconstruction of the microstructure from X-ray tomography data has made simulations on realistic electrodes possible. 17,10,12 We note the work of Wang and Sastry 9 who studied the effective diffusivity and capacity for various idealized, close-packed, as well as experimentally imaged three-dimensional microstructures. Their work, however, neglected any mechanical influences.…”
