LOW TEMPERATURE OPERATION OF BATTERIES

Abstract

Reported values for watt-hr/lb, cu in./lb, and $/lb were assembled for primary and secondary batteries for the temperature range +70 F to -65 F. The specific heat and thermal diffusivity of the BA-270/U battery was measured. The heat leak through electrical leads was analyzed. A computer program was prepared for calculating the time-temperature history of battery-heater insulation systems.
