Link to the Journal paper: Mass Conservation in Models in Lithium Metal Batteries
Electrochemical models at different scales and varying levels of complexity have been used in the literature to study the evolution of the anode surface in lithium metal batteries. This includes continuum, mesoscale (phase field approaches), and multiscale models. In this paper, using a motivating example of a moving boundary model in one-dimension, we show how battery models need proper formulation for mass conservation, especially when simulated over multiple charge and discharge cycles. The article concludes with some thoughts on mass conservation and proper formulation for multiscale models.
