I strongly suspect that anything that would be useful would be specific
to batteries, and would perhaps be best done in batch mode to generate a
model that is then hand-tweaked and selected for use in xcos -- but I
say that in part because over the years I've come to dislike graphical
solvers. 

I think it's possible to build a subsystem out of blocks that can be
"masked" so that you can enter parameters in the usual way -- if you
could boil your battery model down so that it had a few parameters, you
could translate your measured data into parameters once, then use
parameterized blocks for the battery behavior.
