摘 要:We have developed efficient numerical algorithms for solving 3D steadystate Poisson-Nernst-Planck(PNP)equations with excess chemical potentials described by the classical density functional theory(cDFT).The coupled PNP equations are discretized by a finite difference scheme and solved iteratively using the Gummel method with *** Nernst-Planck equations are transformed into Laplace equations through the Slotboom ***,the algebraic multigrid method is applied to efficiently solve the Poisson equation and the transformed Nernst-Planck equations.A novel strategy for calculating excess chemical potentials through fast Fourier transforms is proposed,which reduces computational complexity from O(N2)to O(NlogN),where N is the number of grid *** involving the Dirac delta function are evaluated directly by coordinate transformation,which yields more accurate results compared to applying numerical quadrature to an approximated delta *** results for ion and electron transport in solid electrolyte for lithiumion(Li-ion)batteries are shown to be in good agreement with the experimental data and the results from previous studies.
