Could some electronics guru please direct me to a SPICE model for a lead acid cell. I understand that PSpice comes with a model, but I do not use PSpice, and I hear that the library is encrypted.

LTspice group had a very active session on this.
the following is from

- V2.0 Helmut Sennewald 02/22/04
- Modified from NiMH.lib to simulate sealed lead-acid batteries; SgtWookie 11/3/2010
- Lead-Acid Battery
- Possible Parameters
- -------------------
- VCELL nominal cell voltage in volts, e.g. 2.133
- CAPAH cell capacity in Ah(ampere*hours), e.g. 7.2
- R_SER series resistance in Ohms, e.g 0.2
- SOC state of charge (0..1, .9=3Ddischarged, .95=3D50%, 1=3Dfull)
- CHEFF charging effeciency, e.g 0.7 means you need 1/0.7 times the
- ampere*hours to charge fully
- SELFDC self discharge per hour, e.g. 0.000042 if 3%/per month
- TEMPC Battery internal temperature in =B0C; e.g. 25 =3D 25=B0C
- I started with an old article from S.C.Hageman about a SPICE model for
- NIMH batteries. It's the model "NIMH" - PSpice Nickel-Metal-Hydride
- battery discharge simulator. Optimized for 4/5A and AA Standard Cells
- and discharge rates from 0C to 5C. It's for discharge only.
- First I did some little changes on this discharge model.
- Later, I started with further development to include a charging model
- for he battery too. The result is the new model NIMH_AA.

- The last table entry (1.1 -10) together with the clamped reverse voltage(D2)
- defines the battery voltage in reverse mode. If this entry is omitted,
- then the battery will clamp to zero volts.
