An Improved Balancing Strategy for Inductor-Based Balancing Circuit

In recent years, the rapid development of new energy vehicles has made the recycling and reuse of retired power batteries an urgent issue. The challenge in reusing retired power batteries is their inconsistency, which is commonly addressed using an active balancing circuit. This paper presents an improved balancing strategy for an inductor-based balancing circuit that increases the remaining charge of the battery pack after balancing, reduces losses, and shortens balancing time compared to the original balancing strategy. The effectiveness of the improved balancing strategy is demonstrated through simulation.
