Initial Electrical Parameter Validation in Lead-Acid Battery Model Used for State Estimation

Online State Space Model Parameter Estimation in Synchronous Machines

The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach based on the Least Squares Error method for estimating the unknown parameters of the nonlinear 3rd order synchronous generator model. The proposed method uses the mathematical relationships between the machine parameters and on-line input/output measurements to estimate the parameters of the nonlinear state space model. The field voltage is...

The Application of Genetic Algorithms to Parameter Estimation in Lead-Acid Battery Equivalent Circuit Models

A Mathematical Model for the Soluble Lead-Acid Flow Battery

The soluble lead-acid battery is a redox flow cell that uses a single reservoir to store the electrolyte and does not require a microporous separator or membrane, allowing a simpler design and a substantial reduction in cost. In this paper, a transient model for a reversible, lead-acid flow battery incorporating mass and charge transport and surface electrode reactions is developed. The charge–...

Mass Lead Intoxication from Informal Used Lead-Acid Battery Recycling in Dakar, Senegal

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Between November 2007 and March 2008, 18 children died from a rapidly progressive central nervous system disease of unexplained origin in a community involved in the recycling of used lead-acid batteries (ULAB) in the suburbs of Dakar, Senegal. We investigated the cause of these deaths. METHODS Because autopsies were not possible, the investigation centered on clinic...
