Energy Storage Systems Development:
Abstract
The goal of this work is to mature energy storage systems to both enable silent watch capability and increased survivability through power brick energy storage components for pulse power electromagnetic armor. This is accomplished through the maturation and demonstration of advanced ground vehicle energy storage devices such as advanced chemistry batteries, high energy density capacitors and power brick batteries for pulse power. This effort leverages commercial industry battery development efforts to reduce battery volume and weight while improving their energy and power densities. This effort also matures and optimizes 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 and optimize starting, lighting, and ignition functions. Coordinated work is also being conducted under PEs 0602601A and 0602705A.
