Re: [EVDL] Leaf Busbar Ampacity

Nonsense, the Leaf modules are internally parallelled, so every Leaf bus
bar and interconnecting wire alread carries the full ~250 Amps peak current.

Continuous power at highway speed is closer to about 20kW, so just over 50
Amps.

Internal resistance of the entire pack is about 0.1 Ohms.
This includes the 96 series cell pairs, the bus bars inside the modules
that connect the 4 cells together in 2s2p configuration, the 54 bus bars
that connect the 48 modules, the fused service disconnect and from the
contactors to the front plug, plus the 3 lengths of high voltage wire.

Just from a parts value it's probably worth $2000-$3000, but you'd have 
to find the right buyer.  I parted out the salvage EV (with damage to 
front & back ends) I bought to harvest my battery pack out of, and got 
around that much overall, after 8 months of labor selling parts on ebay 
/ craigslist.  [Definitely not worth a junkyards time to put all that 
effort into it...]

 From Beth's previous post on this car, we know that the car won't power up.

The leaf pack is fused with a 200 (or is it 225?) amp mid-pack fuse, so 
I'd say they are rated at around 200 amps + safety factor...


I used some (totally overkill) 1" wide by 1/4" thick copper bar stock 
when making my interconnects.


I was sizing for a 500 amp max draw using 3 parallel leaf modules.

That calculates out to 40.25 mm2 (yeah, changing units)
1 awg wire is 42 mm2.
BUT the busbar isn't insulated, and has a much larger surface area, so won't 
heat up as much.
1 awg wire is rated at 0.13 ohms/1000 ft.

It's about 1.25" between modules in a Leaf pack.
That comes out to 0.1354 ohms.
at 200A, there should be a voltage drop of 0.0027V, or 0.542 watts.

What I'm trying to figure out is if I need to stack several of them for the 
5p17s pack we are probably going to do for a friends truck.

Is that an 8' bed and including battery boxes under the hood?

My GC6 battery boxes were just a little too short to put the modules

If your battery boxes are deeper you can keep them upright (highly

Beware! Copper water pipe is not pure copper, but is composed of 
alloy, you won't be getting the conductivity of 99% copper. Also, 
crushing and drilling pipe is time consuming and messy, the drilled 
holes can't be properly deburred, and the possibility of 
corrosion/tarnish in the sandwiched interior surfaces is real.


>> The only purpose for the stock Leaf busbars was to tie the middle

> Why would you bother doing that?

These are used modules with a somewhat variable capacity remaining. I 
was able to test that capacity and pair weaker modules with stronger 
ones, creating a more robust pack assembly. Also, paralleling at the 
cell level means half as many BMS channels. You see this as a bug, I 
see it as a feature. A failing pair of cells in one module will be 
quite apparent in the performance of the tractor, which triggers 
diagnostic actions on the part of the owner/driver (me).


Maybe tying the center terminals together with a fuse is a more 
cautious approach. Using thin-ish wire would be a similar 
current-limiting technique.

I thought the Leaf modules were each 4s, similar to how a 7.2v Prius module
is 6s. I stand corrected. They are 2s2p.

They can be modded to 4s according to
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAznO_p_rEY

So, yes that does mean 228 amps at an 80 kW full throttle at 3.65 volts per

[EVDL] evdl sysmgr sez: I want 2005 back ... zoe as nano e-van

2020-08-02 Thread evln via EV



His reply was not about EVs but whingeing(complaining) about how 
life/use-of-the-internet has changed since 2005.

Some might think his post was about my use of that link over spending 
time providing a link that did not hit you in the face with a nag screen to
click 'agree' to read the page ...

Any EVangel considering doing what do to constantly search the EV 
newswires for weekly posting to the evdl, will have to endure these nag 
screens: less so in N.America, and much more so outside NA, especially
.uk and .eu sites. 

Harvesting personal data is nothing new. It goes back to the 1990s, when
the internet was not as widely used. Microsoft, aol, netscape, any many
others, were harvesting without telling you.

I'm assuming, .uk & .eu passed laws to tell you what they are doing and
force you to click agree to pay-the-piper so you can read the page. 
Folks, this is the search-effort I endure all the time.

BTW, when I choose the one of many links to the same story, I usually
choose the one that has the most information (meat) and images 
readers want to read/see. 

As always, if you do not want my posts, please know it is very simple 
to block them (on your side). I am banking that the evdl archives will
be of invaluable help to the public in the future (there is only about 1/3
of my free EV efforts in the archive, the 1st 2/3 since 1990 were 
thrown-away/purged ...  :sob: )

IMO, I wouldn't want to go back to 2005. It wasn't until 2010/11 that
automaker production EVs were offered for sale to the public. 

We have many freedoms here in N.America: the right to be a whingeing
old curmudgeon remembering & wanting his good old days of paper 
media, rotary dial telephones, 8track,cassette & betamax tapes, 
when there was no cell phones, atms, and single-sided 8" floppies 
were all-the-rage.

No Virginia, anyone wanting to live before today's internet, covid 
lockdowns, etc., should change their name to Sherman and seek out
Mr. Peabody, so they can ride the way-back machine to a time of
ignorant (bullwinkle-moose) bliss.

Disclosure: I don't sell Verizon, but recently I gave up my at&t 
(android 5.2 dual-core APU) phone that I was teathing off of for 
my internet connection, for the sweet yahoo/verizon $40/mo deal 
requring I also buy a $50 supported (5g capabile though currently 
running on 4g, andriod 9, quard-core APU) phone. 
Its faster, cheaper per mo., w/ (so-called) unlimited data. at&t 
treated me well for many years of searching the EV newswires, 
but their data plans just did not keep up with today's web page 
data demands (I would run up against at&t's 8gb data limit way 
before the end of the month because today's web pages have so 
many ads, and auto-stream videos, etc. that eat data voraciously).
Now, I search &search, play EV video streams without worrying.


Speaking of backward thinking, GM is thinking of spinning off 
their EV line, see

https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/general-motors/2020/08/01/gm-electric-vehicles-mary-barra/5549426002/
GM's Barra indicates consideration of electric vehicle spin-off
2020/08/01  General Motors should create a new electric vehicle company. 
That's one idea that came from GM's call with analysts this week after the 
automaker released its ...


IMO,it was dumb when GM assigned Saturn as EV1's brand, which 
eventually went no-where after the EV1s were crushed.
Also, haven't we learned anything that making EVs 
separate-but-not-equal, does not work?

I think this part of your post verifies David's concerns about Yahell 
very nicely. That's ~exactly~ his point, some of us draw a line at 
how much invasion of privacy we are willing to bear.


You want frustration? Try using the internet on dialup service, as I 
am frequently forced to do when the crappy satellite ISP is down. I 
have great appreciation for web pages and sites that are written with 
sparse code and load fast without gobbling up bandwidth - whether 
it's served up by satellite "broadband" or reliable dialup backup systems.


Bruce, nobody is denigrating you on your posts on behalf of the EVLN, 
you work hard at what you do, and I doubt that anyone here expects 
you to sanitize links you post other than to ensure that they are 
what you expect them to be.


For myself, I'm appreciative that David provided a more direct and 
less invasive link to the originating news organization's story.

Re: [EVDL] Leaf Busbar Ampacity

2020-08-02 Thread Lee Hart via EV

Mr. Sharkey via EV wrote:

Beware! Copper water pipe is not pure copper, but is composed of alloy,
you won't be getting the conductivity of 99% copper. Also, crushing and
drilling pipe is time consuming and messy, the drilled holes can't be
properly deburred, and the possibility of corrosion/tarnish in the
sandwiched interior surfaces is real.


Good points. Also, copper work-hardens easily, which makes it stiffer 
but a worse conductor. Coppper water pipe is hardened. As I recall, 
rigid copper water pipe is about 30% less conductive than soft copper 
sheet or wire with the same cross-section.



The only purpose for the stock Leaf busbars was to tie the middle
terminals of the paralleled modules together.



Why would you bother doing that?



These are used modules with a somewhat variable capacity remaining. I
was able to test that capacity and pair weaker modules with stronger
ones, creating a more robust pack assembly. Also, paralleling at the
cell level means half as many BMS channels. You see this as a bug, I see
it as a feature.


I think this is exactly why it is done. Saves money on the BMS, and lets 
the manufacturer use mismatched cells to produce a matched pair.



Maybe tying the center terminals together with a fuse is a more cautious
approach. Using thin-ish wire would be a similar current-limiting
technique.


This has been done. It does reduce the risk of a meltdown or fire in 
case one of the paralleled cells fails shorted. But the BMS needs to 
*know* that it has happened, to prevent overloaded the remaining cell 
and causing further damage.

I think this part of your post verifies David's concerns about Yahell

much invasion of privacy we are willing to bear.

You want frustration? Try using the internet on dialup service, as I am

Amen to that. I live in the middle of Minnesota. My internet choices are 
slow, and slower; and it's only gotten worse since the pandemic. Slowest

people send emails bloated with HTML, photos, etc.


Some web pages are now so big that they essentially paralyze my

the entire page loads and finally renders. I give up after 5+minutes and

Bruce, nobody is denigrating you on your posts on behalf of the EVLN,
you work hard at what you do, and I doubt that anyone here expects you
to sanitize links you post other than to ensure that they are what you
expect them to be.


Agreed. Bruce does a great job culling out the BS, and only reporting on 
the 1% of links with more promising content that we might like to check 
out. (The other 99% is *really* bad!)


But it is helpful when he or David can also provide less-invasive links.

Do Electric Cars And Monsoons Go Together? Myths Busted!
Jul 29, 2020 ... Tata Motors clears the air ... driving an electric car into
a pool of water doesn't cause any malfunction and doesn't conduct
electricity into the water around the vehicle. All systems inside the
battery pack have multiple layers of protective cutoffs which activate at
the first sign of water ingress. The main battery pack also has the ability
to isolate itself electrically from the rest of the car ...

Techno Systems Research, Sony holds only 8.6% of the automotive image sensor
market, although it is the largest supplier of these products in the
smartphone market. Similar projects are designed to change the balance of
power – after the Vision-S, a second prototype will be created, which will
receive even more Sony sensors ...

However, most of the commerical EVs sold in the USA seem to have very good 
protection on the high voltage wiring.
