Battery model and control application calibration systems and methods

A method for calibrating a battery control system, comprising:

• determining, using a design device, a calibration current pulse;
• instructing, using the design device, a battery system corresponding with the battery control system to supply the calibration current pulse to a battery pack;
• determining, using the design device, a measured response of the battery pack resulting from supply of the calibration current pulse to the battery pack based at least in part on sensor data received from one or more sensors;
• supplying, using the design device, the calibration current pulse to a battery model corresponding with the battery pack;
• determining, using the design device, a modeled response resulting from supply of the calibration current pulse to the battery model;
• adjusting, using the design device, model parameters of the battery model, a control application used to determine the modeled response, or both when the difference between the measured response and the modeled response is greater than a difference threshold;
• and
• storing, using the design device, the battery model, the control application, or both in the battery control system to enable subsequent use during operation of the battery system when difference between the measured response and the modeled response is not greater than the difference threshold.

A tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing instructions executable by one or more processors of a design device, wherein the instruction comprise instructions to:

• determine, using the one or more processors, a calibration current pulse;
• instruct, using the one or more processors, a battery system corresponding with the battery control system to supply the calibration current pulse to a battery pack;
• determine, using the one or more processors, a measured response of the battery pack resulting from supply of the calibration current pulse based at least in part on sensor data received from one or more sensors;
• supply, using the one or more processors, the calibration current pulse to a battery model corresponding with the battery pack;
• determine, using the one or more processors, a modeled response resulting from supply of the calibration current pulse to the battery model;
• and
• adjust, using the one or more processors, model parameters of the battery model, a control application used to determine the modeled response, or both when difference between the measured response and the modeled response is greater than a difference threshold;
• and
• store, using the one or more processors, the battery model, the control application, or both in the battery control system to enable subsequent use during operation of the battery system when difference between the measured response and the modeled response is not greater than the difference threshold.
