Abstract

Li-air batteries are attracting much attention because of their relatively high theoretical energy densities compared to other types of batteries and storage devices. This interest in this area is driven not only by industries requiring high electric power such as the electric car industry who requires fundamental improvements in the current Li-ion technology in order to extend the driving range of current electric vehicles, but also by many low-power and portable electronics industries which require light, high-capacity energy storage devices. In this article we first make a comparative analysis between modeling and simulation (M&S) of semiconductor devices and the M&S of electrochemical systems, then discuss about the potential and limitations of Li-air batteries and show how computer simulations can help increasing even more the energy density and overcome some of the limitations of these batteries.
