Sandia Energy – Sandia Wins Funding for Two DOE-EERE Computer-Aided Battery-Safety R&D Projects
Two recent energy storage modeling and simulation (mod/sim) R&D proposals developed by Scott Roberts (in Sandia’s Thermal/Fluid Component Sciences Dept.) have been funded. Sandia’s participation in these research activities stems from an ongoing Laboratory-Directed Research and Development (LDRD) joint computational/experimental project led by Anne Grillet (also in Sandia’s Thermal/Fluid Component Sciences Dept.) that is exploring degradation mechanisms in lithium cobalt oxide systems at the individual-cathode-particle level.
