 Simulate generic battery model to charge & discharge using UDDS data.   SIMULINK MODEL : Simulink file https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vLIxCS0DpHAuOjMa9mXXRzNwtfbgeuTR/view?usp=sharing   WORKING & STEPS INVOLVED: The above model shows the battery discharge using the UDDS drive cycle.  In this…

To Make a MATLAB model of fuel cell-powered electric vehicle and comment on results Fuel cell-powered electric vehicle : The common type of PEMFC is mostly used in the HEV. Fuel cell vehicles produce electricity using a fuel cell-powered by hydrogen, rather than drawing electricity from only a battery. The fuel cell stack…

OBJECTIVE-1: What is coulomb counting?    It is one of the methods in the estimation of SOC. The Coulomb counting method measures the charge & discharge current of a battery and integrates the charging & discharging current over time, to estimate SOC. `SOC(t)=SOC(t0)-int((n(t)*I(t))/(Qn))*dt` Qn…

  OBJECTIVE-1: How does the weakest cell limit the usable capacity of the battery pack? The weakest cell limits the usable capacity of the battery pack. This is due to the fact that any capacity mismatch between cells and SOC levels in a series connection of cells results in a reduction of overall pack capacity. Cell…

OBJECTIVE-1: To Prepare a report summarizing thermal management techniques for electric car battery packs.   Need of thermal management: The battery pack & battery safety, performance of both power and capacity and lifespan is determined by the temperature, where the temperature is controlled and there is no risk…
