The operating conditions of the battery in renewable energy systems affect its electrochemical behavior and degradation process. Recent research mainly estimates battery lifetime through conventional methods such as counting the number of equivalent battery life cycles or based on simple experimental models that may lead to optimistic predictions in battery service period. In this study, a reduced-order thermoelectrochemical-aging battery model is developed for the application of renewable energy systems and the battery degradation analysis is investigated by this model. The proposed microscopic model evaluates the effect of battery operating conditions such as state of charge, current and... 

Embedded systems usually have severe limitations on power consumption. One of the reasons is that many embedded systems are battery operated. On the other hand, the battery is a non-linear source of energy, where the lifetime depends on how the system drains power from the battery, or in other words, the battery lifetime is dependent on battery discharge current curve. The nonlinear behavior of batteries is due to their inherent characteristics, where the rate capacity and the recovery effects are believed as the two most well-known and important factors. Also, embedded systems are usually fanless with limited cooling equipment, therefore temperature management is a prominent issue in these...
