In the DaCCCar (Darmstadt Circular Changeable Car) project, we are focusing on vehicle concepts for longevity. An alternative battery concept consisting of two batteries with different characteristics can be a solution for a longer lifetime of the vehicle itself. The derivation of requirements and the development of the battery concept are key for further evaluation.
Task description
- Conceptualization of a dual-battery system according to the FZD research vision for sustainable premium cars
Task details
- Research literature on battery technologies and relevant design parameters for vehicle batteries
- Definition of a reference scenario for testing
- Definition of safety, durability and assembly requirements for a dual-battery system
- Concept development including selection of key battery parameters (e.g.chemistry, capacity, C-rate, cost, weight)
- Virtual design of the dual-battery system
- Discussion of advantages and disadvantages of the approach and the results
NOTICE: All projects and theses at FZD can be done in English or German, as prefered.
