Course Overview

This course is focused on Battery Management Systems (BMS) for EV, Battery Pack Design and Modelling and Advanced Powertrain Development. The topics like battery basics, lithium-ion characteristics, thermal runaway and the functionality of BMS and cell balancing, protection, thermal management and CAN communication are covered in the course. Students will gain an overview of battery and BMS systems and learn about electrical and mechanical design using ANSYS software. They will also understand heat transfer and thermal design of battery packs, pack assembly and test and thermal analysis. The module also covers MATLAB/Simulink-based battery pack modelling. The course concludes with a case study on the powertrain of existing EV models.
