Meeting with Clarke Vandenhoven
We met with a Midnight Sun Alumni to review our modules designs from the module design sprint. Here are recordings of the meeting.
General Takeaways:
Use Hex configuration for cells, they allow more surface area of the cells to be cooled by active cooling
Don’t create air channels in the cell layout as that lets more of the air to move through the module without carrying away as much hot air
We should start manufacturing and testing before thinking of a bunch of thermal solutions, as we don’t know yet how big of an issue thermals will be. Prototyping will reveal to us a bunch more problems to work on.
