About This Book
This richly illustrated book written by Professor Kai Peter Birke and several co-authors addresses both scientific and engineering aspects of modern batteries in a unique way. Emphasizing the engineering part of batteries, the book acts as a compass towards next generation batteries for automotive and stationary applications. The book provides distinguished answers to still open questions on how future batteries look like.
Modern Battery Engineering explains why and how batteries have to be designed for successful commercialization in e-mobility and stationary applications. The book will help readers understand the principle issues of battery designs, paving the way for engineers to avoid wrong paths and settle on appropriate cell technologies for next generation batteries. This book is ideal for training courses for readers interested in the field of modern batteries.

m
of an element or compound will be able to provide a deeper insight than its specific capacity? The gravimetric energy density of an element shows how much energy per kilogram or gram can be stored, while its volumetric energy density shows how much energy per litre can be stored. In this regard these are the most important values to differentiate potential candidates for high-energy cells. To calculate the gravimetric energy density Em
of a single element or compound, the specific capacity Cm
is multiplied with the electrochemical series voltage U0, as shown in Eq. (1.6).![figure](https://book-extracts.perlego.com/979155/images/p4-1-plgo-compressed.webp)
