SEI Base Model#

class pybamm.sei.BaseModel(param, domain, options, phase='primary', cracks=False)#

Base class for SEI models.

Parameters:

param (parameter class) – The parameters to use for this submodel
options (dict) – A dictionary of options to be passed to the model.
phase (str, optional) – Phase of the particle (default is “primary”)
cracks (bool, optional) – Whether this is a submodel for standard SEI or SEI on cracks

Extends: pybamm.models.submodels.interface.base_interface.BaseInterface

get_coupled_variables(variables)#

A public method that creates and returns the variables in a submodel which require variables in other submodels to be set first. For example, the exchange current density requires the concentration in the electrolyte to be created before it can be created. If a variable can be created independent of other submodels then it should be created in ‘get_fundamental_variables’ instead of this method.

Parameters:: variables (dict) – The variables in the whole model.
Returns:: The variables created in this submodel which depend on variables in other submodels.
Return type:: dict
