Battery Enclosure Presentation Members Brian Alano Jae Shin KorkutOzuyener Christopher Shelton Matt Zwiesler
Outline • Introduction • Planning • Design Specification • Competitive Benchmark • Concept Design • Product Evaluation • Impact Statement • Conclusion • Recommendation
Introduction • 462 Capstone design • Design of battery enclosure for Toyota Prius • Used with existing Hybrid technology to further improve car performance • Plug-in technology used to double overall vehicle performance
Planning • Schedule in Microsoft Excel • Calendar in Yahoo! batterybox group • Weekly team meetings • Weekly and daily status reports
Design Specification • Maintenance cost ($/year) • Total cost of prototype • Trunk space after installation (sq. in) • Number of battery modules that fit (#) • Max internal temp at max power draw (deg. C) • Explosive force experienced without fragmenting (kg TNT)
Competitive Benchmark • Hymotion • Pros • Compact • Appearance • Cons • No analysis • Stress & Thermal • No spare tire solution • No fans
Competitive Benchmark • Jerry’s Box • Pros • Cheap • Compact • Cons • Weak Material • No Analysis • Stress & Thermal • Dangerous • No fan
Concept Evaluation • Latch • High Strength Material • SS + Rugged Alloy Steel • High Holding Capacity • 7500 lbs • Easy to use • Simple design • Adjustable • Constraints • Interference check with trunk interior
Product Evaluation: Hand Calculations • Potential energy contained by batteries equal to 25.2 MJ • Laws of thermodynamics- pressure that results from complete release of energy equal to 21.58 ksi • 9.6” thick Al-7075T6 necessary • BlastWrap data indicates it can absorb 4.9 MJ • Leaves energy that could result in pressure of 17.38 ksi • 8.4” thick Al-7075T6 necessary • This is worst case scenario, and disregards any ventilation also
Product Evaluation: Hand Calculations • Rectangular pressure vessel calculations from ASME Boiler and Pressure Codes • 1/4” thick Al-7075T6 can handle 22.17 psi. • This equals about 25.82 kJ. • Added to energy absorbed by BlastWrap results in total energy designed enclosure can handle= 4.9258 MJ
Product Evaluation: Pro-E Mechanica • Hand calculated allowable pressure used • Bottom of enclosure used as it would experience largest moments • Symmetry- Forces applied to two sides • Static Pressure Analysis • Von Mises Failure Criteria • Max stress=60.33 ksi
Product Evaluation • Ansys Stress Analysis • Solid Brick 8 Node 45 • Aluminum 7075T6 • 1/10th Scale Model • Boundary Condition • Symmetry Geometry • Applied Pressure = 22.176 Psi • Ansys Model
Ansys Analysis • Free Meshing • Deformation
Ansys Analysis • VonMises Stress • c • Maximum Stress
Ansys Analysis • Conclusion • Maximum stress: 21226 psi • Max ultimate strength of material: > 75000 psi • The selected battery enclosure can withstand the calculated explosion force: 22.176 psi
CFD Analysis • Fluent mesh
CFD Analysis • 20C discharge rate
CFD Analysis • Velocity Streamlines
CFD Analysis • 20C discharge rate
Cost Analysis • Al-2014T6 much rarer than expected • Al-7075T6 is the strongest, then 2014T6, and then 2024T3. • even with a higher ultimate strength, the price of 7075T6 cheaper than that of 2024T3 • Aluminum 7075T6 chosen
Impact Statement • Enclosing the battery pack safely, securely, and conveniently • Protection from accidental battery explosion • Reduces customer’s budget • Safety concerns of Toyota Plug-in Hybrid customers • Safety concerns of Toyota manufacture
Conclusion • Satisfied the majority of our sponsor’s requirements • Fit in the trunk space and hold two battery modules inside safely and securely • Analysis • Hand calculations, Pro-Engineer analysis, Ansys analysis, and CFD analysis gave the team more confidence • Satisfied the cost requirement • will help the future product to be completed satisfactorily.
Recommendations • BlastWrap is such a new material, even they do not have many solid data points on their material • Design and conduct small scale tests, utilizing the BlastWrap during explosions • Compare results to other scaled explosion tests that do not utilize the BlastWrap. • Possibility to prove its efficiency and more • Different material could be chosen for the outside of the enclosure. • Cheaper, lighter weight • If tests show BlastWrap not as efficient • Choose stronger, heavier, more expensive material • Ensure customer’s safety.
Recommendations • Explosion analysis with software • Live demo • Dynamic analysis • Ansys Analysis Limitation • Explosion force simulation • Computer limitation • Redesign of ventilation system • Eliminate hot spots
