Temperature effect and thermal impact in lithium-ion batteries: A review
Open accessAbstract
Lithium-ion batteries, with high energy density (up to 705 Wh/L) and power density (up to 10,000 W/L), exhibit high capacity and great working performance. As rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries serve as power sources in various application systems. Temperature, as a critical factor, significantly impacts on the performance of lithium-ion batteries and also limits the application of lithium-ion batteries. Moreover, different temperature conditions result in different adverse effects. Accurate measurement of temperature inside lithium-ion batteries and understanding the temperature effects are important for the proper battery management. In this review, we discuss the effects of temperature to lithium-ion batteries at both low and high temperature ranges. The current approaches in monitoring the internal temperature of lithium-ion batteries via both contact and contactless processes are also discussed in the review.

The discharge capacity of a lithium ion battery will decrease as the temperature decreases at low temperatures, regardless of whether the cathode material is lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganate or lithium cobalt oxide.
“Through the comprehensive analysis of the above charts, it can be seen that regardless of whether the cathode material is lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganate or lithium cobalt oxide, the discharge capacity of a lithium ion battery will decrease as the temperature decreases at low temperatures [25,26].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
