The battery pack capacity C bp [Ah] is calculated as the product between the number of strings N sb [-] and the capacity of the battery cell C bc [Ah]. The total number of cells of the battery pack N cb [-] is calculated as the product between the number of strings N sb [-] and the number of cells in a string N cs [-].
The energy content of a string E bs [Wh] is equal with the product between the number of battery cells connected in series N cs [-] and the energy of a battery cell E bc [Wh]. The total number of strings of the battery pack N sb [-] is calculated by dividing the battery pack total energy E bp [Wh] to the energy content of a string E bs [Wh].
The total number of strings of the battery pack N sb [-] is calculated by dividing the battery pack total energy E bp [Wh] to the energy content of a string E bs [Wh]. The number of strings must be an integer. Therefore, the result of the calculation is rounded to the higher integer.
The required battery pack total energy E bp [Wh] is calculated as the product between the average energy consumption E avg [Wh/km] and vehicle range D v [km]. For this example we’ll design the high voltage battery pack for a vehicle range of 250 km. The following calculations are going to be performed for each cell type.
The battery pack will be designed for an average energy consumption of 161.7451 Wh/km. All high voltage battery packs are made up from battery cells arranged in strings and modules. A battery cell can be regarded as the smallest division of the voltage. Individual battery cells may be grouped in parallel and / or series as modules.
In this high-level study, following typical components of battery packs have been taken into account: Master BMS, slave BMS, thermal management in form of a cooling plate with coolant and E/E box including switches, fuses and other electrical components.
Pack Volumetric Energy Density
Pack Volumetric Energy Density is the total nominal energy of the battery pack divided by the volume it occupies. The battery pack volumetric energy density is a simple calculation: The easiest is to perhaps just look at the best and worst of the Wh/litre values:
