Multi-part reference electrode diagnostics: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Contact degradation in high-voltage strings causes localized heating and premature pack failure, which is mitigated by real-time impedance sensing at the cell-interconnect interface. This diagnostic precision prevents thermal runaway and extends the operational life of the traction battery.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Multi-part reference electrode diagnostics?

Undetected cooling system failure

(37)evidences

Thermal and mechanical stresses cause internal deformations or cooling system malfunctions that lead to catastrophic battery failure. Early detection of these physical changes prevents thermal runaway and extends operational lifespan.

Inaccurate charge capacity estimation

(22)evidences

Hidden degradation and impedance shifts within battery cells lead to unreliable performance data. Accurate diagnosis prevents premature failure and optimizes power delivery in vehicle environments.

Undetected electrical leakage paths

(8)evidences

Undetected thermal and mechanical coupling defects lead to premature cell failure. Reliable diagnostics prevent thermal runaway and structural degradation.
