Assessing the suitability of H.E.L’s BTC-500 for small battery testing 

Assessing the suitability of H.E.L’s BTC-500 for small battery testing 

The constant pressure from the market to create more powerful batteries can result in unsafe situations. As a consequence, battery testing is crucial to obtain better batteries that can be operated safely. Adiabatic calorimetry is an incredibly powerful tool for identifying the temperature values at which a battery can be operated. The characterization of events, such as thermal runaways, can help identify the risks and establish mitigation strategies. However, choosing the right calorimeters can prove challenging because they are not sensitive enough for small batteries or cannot withstand battery failures. In this application note, we tested a very small battery (LP103035) in a large calorimeter (BTC-500).

How to use an isothermal calorimeter to characterize a gel battery

By using the iso-BTC – isothermal calorimeter, coupled with a charge/discharge unit, which is specifically designed for the testing of cells and battery packs. We could characterize a battery’s over a wide range of operational conditions.
