- BatEval - Study on different battery technologies for IoTPublication . Duque, Afonso Serra; Viana, Paula Maria Marques Moura GomesNowadays, all electronic devices need a power supply to function as intended. This source can be the power grid, which runs through the domestic or urban electricity supply, or a portable power supply for devices that can be used on a day-to-day basis in any location. From the latter, batteries have emerged that are used in devices such as smartphones or power tools. These are capable of storing energy in a reduced format, thus increasing the mobility of these devices. In this work we provide an analysis of two types of batteries: those that are available for sale on the market, and those that are still being developed by laboratories or companies. These batteries differ one from the other, especially in terms of their chemistry and size, as well as other electrical parameters such as voltage and capacity. After analysing the existing chemistries on the market, an algorithm was developed to select the battery that best suits the specifications of the project the user is working on. This algorithm takes into account parameters such as an operating temperature range (minimum and maximum limit), as well as the desired capacity and mass of the desired battery.
