Energy Storage Systems Development:
Abstract
The goal of this work is to enable silent watch capability and improve survivability through energy storage components for electromagnetic armor. This is accomplished through the maturation and demonstration of advanced ground vehicle energy storage devices such as advanced chemistry batteries and ultra capacitors. This effort also leverages commercial industry battery development efforts to reduce battery volume and weight while improving their energy and power densities. Finally, it also develops a common specification for battery management systems to improve the battery state of charge indicator accuracy and battery state of health information to reduce the frequency of battery replacement, optimize starting, lighting, and ignition functions. Coordinated work is also being conducted under Program Elements (PE) 0602601A , project H91.
