Thermal Failure Criteria of the Battery Box

“…we will use maximum temperature as pass/failure criteria similar to FEA simulations…” - back this up w researchThe thermal failure criteria of the battery box is defined by a maximum system operating temperature.

Info

Temperature Limit of System: 45 °C
Reaching this limit will disable regen and solar for a short time until the pack is cool.

This value was determined based on the LG MJ1 (Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery) Datasheet. It can be found in Appendix 1 of the ASC 2021 VDR Battery Tech Report.
