Hello,

I have a few years of operational cell data, specifically cell voltage and ambient temperature, that I would like to use as the drive cycle input for a PyBaMM simulation via pybamm.step.voltage

Im breaking my simulation into daily experiment cycles where I create a pybamm.step.voltage(drive_cycle) step for each day with the time series voltage data for that day. Is there a way to also include the timeseries ambient temperature data as an input to the experiment?

I see that there is a temperature kwarg that can be provided to pybamm.step.voltage, but it looks like this can only be a fixed value?

temperature (float or string, optional) – The temperature of the step. If a float, the value is in Kelvin. If a string, the value should be a valid temperature string, e.g. “25 oC”.temperature (float or string, optional) – The temperature of the step. If a float, the value is in Kelvin. If a string, the value should be a valid temperature string, e.g. “25 oC”.temperature (float or string, optional) – The temperature of the step. If a float, the value is in Kelvin.

Is it possible to define this as a timeseries like I am able to do with the voltage profile that I provide to pybamm.step.voltage as a numpy array with a time and voltage column?
