Abstract: In order to optimize battery performance, different geometries have been evaluated taking into account their suitability for different applications. These different geometries include conventional, interdigitated batteries and unconventional geometries such as horseshoe, spiral, ring, antenna and gear batteries. The geometry optimization was performed by the finite element method, applying the Doyle/Fuller/Newman model. At 330C, the capacity values for conventional, ring, spiral, horseshoe, gear and interdigitated geometries are 0.58Ahm−2, 149Ahm−2, 182Ahm−2, 216Ahm−2, 289Ahm−2 and 318Ahm−2, respectively.
