SHUNT-CURRENT PROTECTED BATTERY SYSTEM

摘要

A tunnel protected electrochemical device 10 features channels 13 fluidically communicating between manifold 14, tunnels 18 and cells. The channels 13 are designed to provide the most efficient use of auxiliary power. The channels 13 have a greater hydraulic pressure drop and electrical resistance than the manifold 14. This will provide a design with the optimum auxiliary energy requirements.
