Design of Lithium-Ion Battery for Formula Student Electric

Click here for detailed report of the battery design.

This entry illuminates my contribution to IIT Bombay Racing, where I spearheaded the evolution from an existing battery design to a complex parallel configuration of cells. Collaborating with M Danish, we capitalized on a plan for new battery cell set acquisition. Navigating intricate challenges, we achieved remarkable results, notably significantly lowering battery pack heat generation based on the design (theoretical value of 50%) and compacting the pack volume by nearly one-third. This accomplishment underscores our commitment to intricate problem-solving and innovation and our team’s dedication to advancing sustainable automotive technologies on both the theoretical and practical fronts.
