Battery reliability balancing

Abstract

This project was performed to prove a new concept of battery management in the

battery pack of an electric vehicle or any high capacity multi-cell battery operated

machinery. This report includes the basic of how a battery management system

works and what are the current battery balancing techniques, it will identify some of

the problem of these balancing techniques and provide an unique solution to this

problem by introducing a new method of balancing of the cell which can be incorporated

into the current techniques in hope of improving the lifespan of the battery

pack.

The author will provide the reason of the components selected to be use to design the

circuitry and draw the schematic of the circuit which will be use in the experiment.

The connectivity test and functionality test will also be done to ensure the functionality

of the components in the circuit. The author will also be required write the software

to prove the idea of switching and data are to be logged for debugging of the

error of cell.
