Typhoon HIL Battery – Modeling and Application
There are 3 points at the battery's discharge curve (Figure 1) that are used by the
equations:

Typhoon HIL Battery – Modeling and Application
Basic Parameters:
1. Battery type: typhoon models 4 most common battery types: Lead-Acid, Lithium-ion,
Nickel-Cadmium and Nickel-Metal-Hydride. Fifth option that can be chosen is user
defined.
2. Nominal voltage: as it says, it is the nominal voltage of the battery.
3. Capacity: is the rated capacity of battery.
4. Initial SOC: is the initial state of charge of the battery.
Advanced Parameters:
Advanced parameters are enabled if as a battery type an user defined option is chosen. This
allows the user to shape the battery discharge curve according to his needs.
1. Full charge voltage: percentage of the nominal voltage of battery when it is fully
charged, this number is always larger than 100%
2. Nominal discharge current is defined as a percentage of the rated capacity/1h.
3. Internal resistance
4. Capacity at nominal voltage: percentage of the rated capacity.
5. Capacity at exponential zone: percentage of the rated capacity.
