The 1st half of Module 1 of the Master course covers the fundamentals of electrochemical cells, cell constructions, types of cell formats, cell materials, cell chemistries, electrochemical reactions in cells, cell terminologies, cell failure modes, and safety devices are discussed. Some fundamental calculations on parameters such as cell potential, capacity, and energy are also discussed by referring to the reduction potential chart. And the 2nd half of Module 1 describes lithium-ion cells in more detail. Various types of Li-ion chemistries are discussed along with their properties and characteristics. The fundamentals of electrochemistry such as Fick’s law of diffusion and Peeukert’s law are discussed briefly. By the end of the module, the learner will be able to get a good grasp of crucial electrochemical cell properties, behavior, and characteristics.
