Common#

This module provides common functionality for modeling battery systems in powertrains. It includes methods for battery sizing, performance calculation, condition management, and property computation that are shared across different battery chemistries.

The module contains functions for:

  • Appending and managing battery conditions during mission segments

  • Finding battery properties using Ragone curves

  • Calculating power and energy characteristics

  • Computing mass changes for metal-air batteries

  • Sizing battery modules based on mass or energy/power requirements
