Adding new cell type
There are in total 4 types of cells
Cell_fit: this cell is used when fitting the characterisation parameters (see Characterisation parametrisation)Cell_KokamNMC: this cell has parameters for a high-power Kokam NMC cell and is used for cycling and degradation simulationsCell_LGChem: this cell has parameters for a high-energy LG Chem NMC cell and is used for cycling and degradation simulationsCell_user: this cell is made for the user to set his/her own parameters for his/her own type of cell (in the released code, the parameters are the same as the ones for the Kokam cell.
Users can make their own sub-class of Cell to implement another cell type. This class has to inherit Cell so that it can be used by the rest of the code. Additionally, the header-file structure must be corrected: the new cell type must include Cell_user.hpp in its header file, and in cycling.cpp and degradation.cpp the header type of the new Cell-subclass must be include instead of Cell_user (to avoid double- including header files).
The diagram below shows how the header-files are currently structured (the colours are for clarity only). The new Cell-subclass must be inserted to the right of Cell_user (which it has to include), and the lines to cycling.cpp and degradation.cpp have to come from the header file of this new subclass instead of from cell_user.hpp.
