Utility Vehicle Battery lei duh tan a tha ber
Riyadh-a fleet manager pakhatin thla 14 hnuah $180,000 man lead-acid battery a paih lai ka en a. Cold storage, shift thum, 15℃hnuai lam charge a hold thei lo . Sulfation chuan plate te chu a ei a. Thla 11-naah chuan a forklift-te chu half-shift-ah an limp tawh a.
Chu chu kum 2019 a ni a, chuta ṭang chuan a operation LFP kalpui turin ka pui tawh a ni. Tunah hian kum nga a ni tawh a, original pack-ah 87% capacity retention a awm tawh.
Spec Sheet-a buaina awm chu
Procurement tihsual ka hmuh tam zawk hi number dik lo zawn chhuahnaah a tla thla thin. Mi zawng zawng hian thil lei dawnin $/kWh-ah an fixate vek. Chu chu i hman tak tak tur atanga 35% vel a ni mai thei.
TCO breakdown hi a hnuah ka thleng leh ang, mahse a hmasa berin: cell matching. Hei hi sales literature-a lang ngai lo quality variable a ni a, supplier-te’n price point an hit a ngaih hunah corner an cut na hmun a ni.
Supplier kan audit hian cell matching tolerance hi ka zawhna hmasa ber a ni. First-tier siamtute chuan ±2.5% capacity leh internal resistance inang chiah chiah an match. Engvangin nge high-current application atan chuan capacity aiin internal resistance hi a pawimawh zawk? A chhan chu parallel cells mismatched resistance nei i neih chuan current hi a inthen vek lo. Resistance cell hniam zawk-resistance cell hian load tam zawk a la a, a lum chak zawk a, a upa chak zawk a, a tawpah chuan pack pumpui chu a hnuai lamah a hruai thla ta a ni. MIT chuan 20% resistance mismatch hian discharge rate sang takah cycle life 40% velin a ti tlem tih an document (sciencedirect.com).
Chu chu kum tam tak chhunga service life bo a ni a, a chhan chu mi pakhatin matching-ah cell khatah $3 a humhim vang a ni.
