Usage histogram
A compact record, kept by the BMS, of how long or how much charge the battery has spent in each bin of temperature, SOC, current or C-rate. Instead of storing years of raw data it summarises the load spectrum, which feeds warranty decisions, second-life assessment and aging-model calibration.
- Also called
- load spectrum, load collective, residence-time histogram
Example
Data, communication and electronics: an example situation
2500 in a log might mean 25.00 °C, 2.5 V or raw counts. Units and scale must accompany the value.
Read Usage histogram alongside Aging model in this context. A model that predicts capacity fade and resistance growth as functions of time, temperature, SOC and throughput. Empirical models fit power laws and Arrhenius terms to test data; physics-based models simulate the SEI, plating and cracking mechanisms themselves.
Use in Lemonergy
Separate quantities from encoding and transport.
This is a reference concept. No executable Lemonergy block has been verified for this term.
