  • Safety: Excellent abuse tolerance and environmentally friendly
  • Life: Excellent calendar life, 10X cycle life vs. conventional lithium ion

As stated battery pack capacity required =18kwh

single cell capacity = cell volt x cell current =2.5 x3.3 = 8.25Wh

Assumption car range = 500km and volt req =500v

energy req per km= 18000/500 = 36kw/km

no. of cell in series(ncs) = volt req by car/ nominal voltage of cell 500/3.3 =152 cells in series required

no. of cell in parallel req total P=NO. OF cell in pARALLEL X NOMINAL VOLT X NO. OF cell in SERIES X NOMINAL CAPACITY

459036 = 18000/152X2.5X3.3 =14 CELLS

Battery pack total enErgy = ncp x ncs x volt of single cell x capacity of cell = 14 x152 x3.3 x2.5 = 18kwh

Battery pack capacity = ncp x capacity of cell = 14 x 2.5= 35 amphr

Total number of cells for battery pack = 152 x14 =2128 cell

Total volume of battery pack=2128*0.0345=73.3125 m^3.

Elements of a battery pack-

cell - A cell basically consist of Anode,Cathode,Seperator,positive cap,negative cap and shell.

Cell assembly - a battery can be assembles in various arrangment eg 7S3P OR 5S5P it is done ACQ to need of vehicle.

Cell Holder - The mainn function of a battery holder to keep cells fixed in place safely and securely also it is used to keep cells in a proper arrangement so that there will be a decrease innmechanical vibrations.

Electric connection- as cells are now hold by a holder a electrical connection is made between them there are many ways to connect two cell some are

1)Copper and Nickel Buses

2)MAGNETS

3)Spot-welding a Copper / Nickel sandwich

BMS - Battery management system (BMS) is technology dedicated to the oversight of a battery pack, which is an assembly of battery cells, electrically organized in a row x column matrix configuration to enable delivery of targeted range of voltage and current for a duration of time against expected load scenarios.

BTMS- Battery Thermal Management System is a complete thermal system solution that maintains the critical operating temperature ranges of vehicle batteries
