This presented work deals with the development of an automated station for the measuring of experimental cells of the Lead Acid Battery. The principle is to design a measuring station and make programs for cycling of cells in standard and PSoC modes.

The project considers realization system, which allows us to test six different operation modes on lifetime of accumulators. The system will be connected to computer, that will perform measurement of current and voltage and switch betwen charge and discharge modes. The measured values will be recorded in certain time intervals to computer memory. After some time these measured data will be analised and the most optimal operational mode will be set.

The system will link to computer, which will execute measurement current and tension and switch betwencharging and discharging modes. The measured values will record in someone time intervals in to computer memory. After someone time will analise these measured valuer and will provide optional operation mode.

This master’s thesis deals with lead acid battery in hybrid electric vehicles which operating at mode of partial state of charge (PSoC). In this mode, there is often a negative electrode degradation mostly due to irreversible mechanism of suphation. The idea of this work is detect ideal value of mechanical pressure exerted on active mass of negative electrode in combination with additives to prevent mechanism of sulphation and lead to increased cycle life of lead acid battery.

The most used type of the secondary energy sources is the lead-acid accumulator today. It is also used as a propulsion in hybrid electric vehicles. Functional principle stayed same as in foundation time, only parameters are still improving. Lifetime of lead-acid accumulator is influenced by used separator. The work deals with the description of properties of lead acid separators, methods of testing and evaluation of the suitability for use.

The aim of this thesis is the analysis of thermal processes in lead accumulators with oxygen cycle. The work is explaining the structure and principle of operation of the standard lead-acid battery and lead-acid battery with oxygen cycle. Generally are described thermal action inside a lead battery with oxygen cycle and the different types of heat generated during operation of the battery are discussed in detail. One chapter describes the practical experiments and their results.

This work aims on acumulators for hybrid vehicles and deals particularly with research of inner-resistance of the lead-acid batteries. There is a brief characterization of hybrid cars in first part of the tesis. Second part is dealing with design of experimental measurement setup for measurement of lead-acid electrochemical cells. Set of experiments on several cells was performed, description of experiments and results in graphical form are present.

Main goal of the diploma thesis is to examine lead-acid accumulator and to study cycling modes in different setups. Theoretical part describes history, types of maintenance-free batteries, degradation mechanisms and possibilities to remove them. Practical part involves the production of electrodes and experimental cell, composition of active mass and measurement of internal resistance. Different configurations for deep cycling are researched as well. The results of the work are summarized and commented at the conclusion of the thesis.

Hybrid electric vehicles use lead acid batteries operating under partial charge. Battery life of these batteries is dependent on the speed of development of lead sulphate (PbSO4) to the negative electrodes. Different admixtures are affected battery life. This work deals with the influence of titanium dioxide on the negative active material in lead battery. Mainly devoted to the influence of the applied pressure.

Lead-acid batteries are most used secondary electrochemical power sources. Their basic principle has remained the same for several years; only the operating parameters are in development. Lead-acid batteries are used in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), which operates in the partial charge PSoC. Sulphation is one of the possible failures lead-acid batteries in the HEV, especially the negative electrode. By adding additives to the negative active mass can reduce the rate of sulphation and increase ability to accept an electrical charge by negative electrode.
