Butler Volmer#

class pybamm.kinetics.SymmetricButlerVolmer(param, domain, reaction, options, phase='primary')#

Submodel which implements the symmetric forward Butler-Volmer equation:

\[j = 2 * j_0(c) * \sinh(ne * F * \eta_r(c) / RT)\]

Parameters:

param (parameter class) – model parameters
domain (str) – The domain to implement the model, either: ‘Negative’ or ‘Positive’.
reaction (str) – The name of the reaction being implemented
options (dict) – A dictionary of options to be passed to the model. See pybamm.BaseBatteryModel
phase (str, optional) – Phase of the particle (default is “primary”)
