The Comparative Study on the Li-S and Li-ion Batteries Cooperating with the Photovoltaic Array
Open accessAbstract
The stationary photovoltaic array can be used to charge the different vehicle batteries and, in parallel, be used as a power source for the utility grid or standalone devices placed such as in campers. The main objective of the study was to compare chosen electrical characteristics of two assemblies with each containing the same PV array, boost converter and inverter, and a different battery, such as the Li-S one and the Li-ion one, respectively. Differences occurring during modelling of Li-ion and Li-S batteries were discussed. The model of the chosen photovoltaic array was used during analysis. The models based on electrical equivalent circuits for Li-ion battery and of Li-S battery were utilized during calculations. The models of the boost converter and boost inverter of known topology parameters were utilized during simulations. In the chosen performances (courses of voltages and currents versus time) obtained from the simulation of the sets composed of the Li-S battery cooperating with the boost inverter or the boost converter, only small differences or no differences occurred when compared to the case of the Li-ion battery.

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.
