Abstract: Disclosed are a system for and a method of determining the cause of a defect of a battery, which is specifically attributable to a human error, through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The system includes an impedance measurement unit for measuring an impedance value of a battery while sequentially applying AC current signals of respective frequencies to the battery, a controller for determining the cause of the defect of the battery on the basis of the measured impedance value, and a table in which each of impedance value ranges is associated with a cause of a defect. The controller determines a cause of a defect of the battery by comparing the measured impedance value and each of the impedance value ranges.

Abstract: A battery management apparatus for a vehicle includes a battery, an alternator, a battery detection unit, a battery controller generating an initial state of charge by using initial state information of the battery at startup, generating an internal resistance of the battery using a voltage value and a current value of the battery, generating a first state of charge by using a driving state information of the battery, a battery charging efficiency, and the initial state of charge when the startup is off, generating a second state of charge by using the off state information of the battery when the off time after the start-off is greater than or equal to the reference time, and resetting the battery charging efficiency based on the first and second state of charge, and a vehicle controller for receiving the battery charging efficiency from the battery controller, and controlling the alternator based thereon to charge the battery.

Abstract: An electrolyte composition for a lead storage battery and a lead storage battery using the same are provided. More particularly, the electrolyte composition of a lead storage battery and the lead storage battery using the same improve stratification of an electrolyte without use of a separate mechanical device by using a natural stirring effect caused by a specific gravity difference between a dispersant having a specific gravity of from about 1.02 to about 1.35 and an electrolyte including distilled water and sulfuric acid. Due to the reduction in mechanical components, the electrolyte composition for a lead storage battery and a lead storage battery disclosed herein have enhanced durability compared to conventional batteries.
