contents The increasing adoption of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries in Electric Vehicles is driven by their affordability, abundant material supply, and safety advantages. However, challenges arise in controlling/estimating unmeasurable LFP states such as state of charge (SOC), due to its flat open circuit voltage, hysteresis, and path dependence dynamics during intercalation and de-intercalation processes. The Core Shell Average Enhanced Single Particle Model (CSa-ESPM) effectively captures the electrochemical dynamics and phase transition behavior of LFP batteries by means of Partial Differential-Algebraic Equations (PDAEs). These governing PDAEs, including a moving boundary Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE), require a fine-grained spatial grid for accurate and stable solutions when employing the Finite Difference Method (FDM). This, in turn, leads to a computationally expensive system intractable for the design of real-time battery management system algorithms. In this study, we demonstrate that the Finite Volume Method (FVM) effectively discretizes the CSa-ESPM and provides accurate solutions with fewer than 4 control volumes while ensuring mass conservation across multi ple operational cycles. The resulting control-oriented reduced order FVM-based CSa-ESPM is experimentally validated using various C-rate load profiles and its observability is assessed through nonlinear observability analysis. Our results reveal that different current inputs and discrete equation numbers influence model observability, with non-observable regions identified where solid-phase concentration gradients are negligible.
