Description#

An Electrochemical Device is a system composed of electrochemical components that enables energy storage, conversion, or chemical transformation. These devices integrate multiple structural and functional elements to facilitate electrochemical processes efficiently.

Guidelines for Use#

To represent an Electrochemical Device in the ontology, follow three key steps:

  1. Identify the Electrochemical Device Define the component using the ElectrochemicalDevice class and specify its type (e.g., Battery, Fuel Cell, Supercapacitor, Electrolyzer).

    {
      "@context": "https://w3id.org/emmo/domain/electrochemistry/context",
      "@type": "ElectrochemicalDevice"
    }
    
  2. Assign Properties Specify attributes such as Nominal Voltage, Capacity, Operating Temperature, and Efficiency.

    {
      "@context": "https://w3id.org/emmo/domain/electrochemistry/context",
      "@type": "ElectrochemicalDevice",
      "hasProperty": [
        {
          "@type": "NominalVoltage",
          "hasNumericalPart": {
            "@type": "RealData",
            "hasNumericalValue": 3.7
          },
          "hasMeasurementUnit": "emmo:Volt"
        },
        {
          "@type": "Capacity",
          "hasNumericalPart": {
            "@type": "RealData",
            "hasNumericalValue": 2000
          },
          "hasMeasurementUnit": "emmo:MilliAmpereHour"
        }
      ]
    }
    
  3. Link the Device to its Components Associate the device with its structural components, such as electrodes, separators, electrolytes, current collectors, and cases.

    {
      "@context": "https://w3id.org/emmo/domain/electrochemistry/context",
      "@type": "ElectrochemicalDevice",
      "hasElectrode": [
        {
          "@type": "Electrode",
          "hasActiveMaterial": {
            "@type": "LithiumCobaltOxide"
          }
        }
      ],
      "hasSeparator": {
        "@type": "Separator",
        "hasProperty": [
          {
            "@type": "Thickness",
            "hasNumericalPart": {
              "@type": "RealData",
              "hasNumericalValue": 25
            },
            "hasMeasurementUnit": "emmo:Micrometre"
          }
        ]
      },
      "hasElectrolyte": {
        "@type": "ElectrolyteSolution",
        "hasSolvent": {
          "@type": "EthyleneCarbonate"
        },
        "hasSolute": {
          "@type": "LithiumHexafluorophosphate"
        }
      },
      "hasCase": {
        "@type": "R2032"
      }
    }
    

By defining Electrochemical Devices in terms of their type, properties, and components, the ontology provides a structured and interoperable framework for modeling a wide variety of electrochemical energy systems.
