This article presents a path planning strategy with ant colony algorithm for series connected batteries. The motive of this paper is the increasing need for efficient and fast equalization for Lithium-ion batteries. There are many great papers on the design of the equalization circuits. However, they lack the part of path planning strategy for the balancing circuits. To solve this issue, we adopt the graph model to represent the balancing paths among different battery cells and then construct two optimal models based on the best efficiency and speed, respectively. Finally, ant colony algorithm is used to solve these two models. This makes it possible to achieve different goals according to the practical operating conditions. We validate the function of the proposed path planning strategy through an example of 13 series connected battery balancing system.

Lithium-ion batteries are being implemented in different large-scale applications, including aerospace and electric vehicles. For these utilizations, it is essential to improve battery cells with a great life cycle because a battery substitute is costly. For their implementation in real applications, lithium-ion battery cells undergo extension during the course of discharging and charging. To avoid disconnection among battery pack ingredients and deformity during cycling, compacting force is exerted to battery packs in electric vehicles. This research used a mechanical design feature that can address these issues. This investigation exhibits a comprehensive description of the experimental setup that can be used for battery testing under pressure to consider lithium-ion batteries’ safety, which could be employed in electrified transportation. Besides, this investigation strives to demonstrate how exterior force affects a lithium-ion battery cell’s performance and behavior corresponding to static exterior force by monitoring the applied pressure at the dissimilar state of charge. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used as the primary technique for this research. It was concluded that the profiles of the achieved spectrums from the experiments seem entirely dissimilar in comparison with the cases without external pressure. By employing electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, it was noticed that the pure ohmic resistance, which is related to ion transport resistance of the separator, could substantially result in the corresponding resistance increase.
