Battery Management System in an Electric Car (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783668820968)

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2016 in the subject Engineering - Power Engineering, grade: 67/100, University of Leicester, course: Electrical & Electronics, language: English, abstract: It is believed that electric vehicles will be able to go toe-to-toe, or wheel to wheel, with internal combustion engine vehicles in as little as eight years. Some of the obstacles this industry could face is the battery lifespan and range of the vehicle. Currently, Lithium-ion batteries provide the best energy density and a longer lifespan for energy storage, however these batteries require a complex battery management system to help operate at their optimum level. This project dwells in to a basic battery management system to be used in a formula student electric car. The battery management system is custom built, making sure it adheres to the rules and regulations provided by the governing body of IMechE Formula Student. After the project completion, the system will become an integrated part of the race car which will compete at formula student UK. The possibility of it becoming the first ever British electric race car to pass scrutiny is very likely.
