The Dual Battery Management System (BMS) with continuous regeneration has a sophisticated energy management strategy, which allows for a significant range extension without merely doubling the physical battery capacity.
The Dual BMS doesn't just store energy; it actively manages it. It uses a combination of batteries and ultra capacitors to balance energy storage and delivery.
Ultra capacitors are excellent at quickly absorbing and releasing energy, which makes them ideal for capturing the energy that would otherwise be lost during driving, not just during braking events.
Continuous Regeneration:
Unlike traditional systems that primarily capture energy during braking (regenerative braking), the Dual BMS continuously captures energy during normal driving conditions as well.
This includes energy from deceleration, going downhill, and even when there is excess power generation from the vehicle's alternator.
The continuous regeneration means that the system is always working to convert kinetic energy back into electrical energy, keeping the batteries charged for longer periods.
Efficiency and Range Extension:
The system's efficiency, assumed to be 90%, means that most of the energy captured is converted back into usable electrical energy, with only a 10% loss to heat or other inefficiencies.
With a 10% efficiency gain from continuous regeneration, the vehicle can extend its range by 30 miles for every 300 miles driven, which is a conservative estimate.
After accounting for the tapering effect during charging, the total range with the Dual BMS is estimated to be 570 miles.
Non-linear Range Improvement:
The improvement in range is not linear because it doesn't rely solely on increasing battery capacity.
The system's ability to regenerate energy continuously allows it to maintain a higher state of charge over time, which translates to an extended range.
This means that the vehicle can travel nearly twice as far on a single charge compared to the base range, without the need for double the battery capacity.
Operational Excellence:
For power professionals and consumers alike, the Dual BMS represents a leap forward in operational excellence.
It assures a constant state of preparedness for peak demands and energy recovery, which is crucial for applications like regenerative braking systems.
The strategic energy management leads to reduced charge cycles and wear on batteries, enhancing sustainability and reducing the total cost of ownership.
The Dual BMS with continuous regeneration is more than just an incremental improvement over traditional systems; it's a transformative approach to energy management in electric vehicles. By optimizing the timing and flow of energy, it leads to exponential improvements in availability and efficiency, ensuring that the vehicle can go further on a single charge and that the energy storage components have a longer lifespan.
