Builder battery with differente capacties?

Is it possilble to use Build Battery or Simscape Battery and build a battery module with different capacities for each cells? For example, I want to build a module with 6 cells in parallel and then 4 series using different capacities for each cell.

Hi Victor,

The Simscape Battery Builder app offers a user-friendly interface for designing and simulating battery modules with varying cell capacities. Within the app, you can model each cell individually by specifying unique parameters, such as capacity, voltage, and resistance. This customization allows for the creation of realistic battery models that reflect diverse cell characteristics, essential for accurate simulation results.

After defining individual cells, the Battery Builder app enables you to configure them into desired series and parallel configurations. You can visually arrange cells, forming parallel groups of six with different capacities, and then connect these groups in series. This approach simplifies the process of designing complex battery modules, facilitating comprehensive performance analysis and optimization in a simulated environment.

Please refer to the foolowing documentation to understand more about the same:

Dear Shivan, I am trying to use the Batteruy Builder but I have noticed that it only permit to build parallel assembly for a same type of cell for example, if I created a cell_1, cell_2, cell_3 and cell_4 each one with a differente capacity, how can I use the four cells in the same parallel assembly?
