The invention provides a battery cell modeling method. The battery cell modeling method comprises the following steps: S1, measuring the three-dimensional size of a battery cell; S2, extruding the battery cell along the thickness direction by adopting a first pressure head to obtain an F1-d1 curve of the battery cell; S3, calculating an equivalent sigma-epsilon curve of the battery cell; S4, selecting an equivalent material according to the equivalent sigma-epsilon curve, endowing parameters of the equivalent material to the battery cell model, performing benchmarking correction on a simulation curve F1'-d1' curve when the battery cell model is extruded by a first pressure head model, and establishing an equivalent stiffness finite element model of the battery cell; S5, extruding the battery cell along the thickness direction by adopting a second pressure head to obtain an F2-d2 curve; and S6, on the basis of the step S4, replacing the first pressure head model with a second pressure head model for simulation and benchmarking correction, and establishing a final battery cell equivalent mechanical model. According to the battery cell equivalent mechanical model established by the method, the simulation precision of the battery pack can be improved, the stress of the battery cell is evaluated more accurately by utilizing a simulation means, and the evaluation capability of the CAE technology on the safety of the battery pack is expanded.
