Cylindrical geometry for battery cell

Since R2022b

Description

Use CylindricalGeometry to represent the geometry of a cylindrical battery cell. To specify the dimensions of a cylindrical geometry, use the Radius and Height properties.

Creation

Syntax

import simscape.battery.builder.*; cylinder = CylindricalGeometry
import simscape.battery.builder.*; cylinder = CylindricalGeometry(Name=Value)

Description

import simscape.battery.builder.*; cylinder = CylindricalGeometry creates a cylindrical geometry with default property values.

import simscape.battery.builder.*; cylinder = CylindricalGeometry(Name=Value) creates a cylindrical geometry with a specified radius and height using name-value arguments.

Properties

expand all

Radius of the cylinder, specified as a positive scalar or a simscape.Value object that represents a positive scalar with a unit of length. This value must be less than 0.5 meters.

If you set this property directly with a positive scalar value instead of using a simscape.Value object, the object converts the value to a simscape.Value object with meter as its physical unit.

Example: cylinder.Radius = simscape.Value(0.0105,"m")

Example: cylinder.Radius = 0.0105

Height of the cylinder, specified as a positive scalar or a simscape.Value object that represents a positive scalar with a unit of length. The length of the cylinder is aligned with the z-axis of the reference frame. This value must be strictly positive.

If you set this property directly with a positive scalar value instead of using a simscape.Value object, the object converts the value to a simscape.Value object with meter as its physical unit.

Example: cylinder.Height = simscape.Value(0.07,"m")

Example: cylinder.Height = 0.07
