•    ‘Zero Inertia Driveline‘ (TU Eindhoven)
      •   from ‘ecodrive’ project (late 90’s);
          goal: decreased fuel consumption + emission
           • load levelling
              Engine operates at optimal point
              flywheel = peak power unit
           • Stop and Go regimes:
              uncouple & Shut down ICE at low speed
      •   spin-off DriveTrain Innovations (dtinnovations.nl)
      •   Slower rpm, ‘classical’ technology

•    mecHybrid project:
      •   DTI+CCM+SKF+TU/e+Bosch+PunchPowertrain
      •   develop lowcost flywheel system for small/medium cars
      •   ‘small’ size (150kJ;30kW braking/10kW motoring)
      •   Focus on energy management (DTC = DriveTrain Control)

Electrolytic capacitors
•    lot of different types
•    Aluminum capacitors most relevant for energy storage
      • capacity up to 20 mF
      • max voltage 400 à 500 V  2 in serie for industrial DC-bus
•    lifetime: 1.000.000’s of cycles, BUT depends from:
      temperature T
      •   Arrhenius approximation: lifetime halves every 10°C increase of T
•     amplitude ripple current IAC
      •   higher amplitude  shorter lifetime
•     frequency of ripple current (frequency of load/unload)
      •   higher frequency  higher lifetime
•     (smaller) effect of actual maximum voltage level
      •   Vmax higher  lower lifetime


                                                                                                    07-06-2012   40

Electrolytic capacitors: lifetime

•    strongly T and thus ESR-dependent (heating Q~ESR*IRMS2)
      • ESR = Equivalent Series Resistance
      • ESR ⇗⇗ at low frequencies (<100Hz)  Temp ⇗⇗  lifetime ⇘ ⇘
                 datasheets give data >50Hz or > 20Hz

                  much mechanical systems have cycles < 10Hz
                ESR-curves in data-sheet                                      extrapolation for low frequencies

Electrolytic capacitors: lifetime (cont’d)

•   ‘End of Life’ when any of the following conditions is reached:
     •   Core temp > 105 °C (85°C products)
                     > 120 °C (105°C products)
     •   ESR > 2 x initial ESR
     •   Capacitance change: decrease more than10 or 20% relative to initial value
     •   Leakage current < initial limit

•   Conclusion:
     •   Design with low ESR !!! However forced cooling often necessary
     •   Limit current in capacitors  ‘oversizing’
     •   Pay attention to balancing + limit inrush current at startup
         + safely unload capacitors at shutdown of the machine

•   Remark concerning supercaps: same thermal problem, however
     •   minor frequency dependency (ratio ESRDC / ESR1000Hz ≌ 2)
     •   mostly application with high power  high currents  forced cooling

Compatibility: Supercaps  DC-bus
•    Voltage match DC-bus – Supercaps:
      •   Supercaps require big voltage swings
          to fully exploit energy
           • Energy exchange  Voltage changes
           • Typical (maximum) voltage window: ½ Vmax to Vmax
      •   Limited voltage changes on DC-bus driveline (e.g. 550V to 750V)
•    Number of cells
      • Low cell voltage supercaps:
      • typical max. 2.5 – 2.7 V
      •  Put cells in series to match dc-bus

Elektrische energie-opslag: technologie

Electrolytic capacitors
→ Small energy density (indication: around 0,5 Wh/kg)
→ Very high lifetime possible (10 year and more / 100 millions of cycles possible)
→ high voltage per cell (typical 400V, up to >1000V for some types);
→ capacity per cell: 100 F < C < 10’s mF

Super-capacitors
→ High power density, low energy density
    Orders of magnitude: 5 Wh/kg, 6 kW/kg (depending on efficiency) at cell level)
→ High lifetime possible (500 000-1 000 000 cycles).
→ low voltage per cell (typical 2.7V);
→ capacity per cell typical 10's F < C < few kF

Batteries
→ high energy and energy density; rather low power characteristics
       (at cell level 50-150-200...400 Wh/kg possible depending on the batterytype)
→ Short lifetime (order of magnitude 500-2000 cycles for full charge/discharge)
→ low voltage per cell (typical 1.2 à 3.5 V)

Elektrische energie-opslag: topologie
DC-Bus + Storage technology (Energy storage directly on DC-bus)
→ 'passive' configuration

DC-Bus + DC/DC-Converter + Storage technology (Energy storage coupled to DC-bus via DC/DC
converter)

More difficult to indicate when to use and when not to use DC/DC-converter. Some guidelines:

Coupling via DC/DC-Converter allows for:
    → different (independent) voltage levels for energy storage components and drive DC-powerline
    → energy management ('active' control of the power flows)
             Control of power flows allows for fully use of potential of capacitor (deeper discharge possible),
             implement strategy (maximize energy recuperation, load leveling), better control of battery
SOC...
Choosing a dc-dc converter will be cost effective when having a big package of supercaps.
    → for small packages it is more difficult to say if a dc-dc converter is cost effective.
       (trade-off between price of the supercap package and price dc-converter)

Combination of technologies: Following topologies have been identified:
      DC-Bus + Batteries + Super-capacitors
      DC-Bus + Batteries + DC/DC-Converters + Super-capacitors
      DC-Bus + High energy batteries + DC/DC converter + High power batteries

    Elektrische energie-opslag: technologie Electrolyticcapacitors → Small energy density (indication: around 0,5 Wh/kg) → Very high lifetime possible (10 year and more / 100 millions of cycles possible) → high voltage per cell (typical 400V, up to >1000V for some types); → capacity per cell: 100 F < C < 10’s mF Super-capacitors → High power density, low energy density Orders of magnitude: 5 Wh/kg, 6 kW/kg (depending on efficiency) at cell level) → High lifetime possible (500 000-1 000 000 cycles). → low voltage per cell (typical 2.7V); → capacity per cell typical 10's F < C < few kF Batteries → high energy and energy density; rather low power characteristics (at cell level 50-150-200...400 Wh/kg possible depending on the batterytype) → Short lifetime (order of magnitude 500-2000 cycles for full charge/discharge) → low voltage per cell (typical 1.2 à 3.5 V) 07-06-2012 69 © 2012 Sirris – FMTC – VUB www.sirris.be www.fmtc.be mobi.vub.ac.be

    Elektrische energie-opslag: topologie DC-Bus+ Storage technology (Energy storage directly on DC-bus) → 'passive' configuration DC-Bus + DC/DC-Converter + Storage technology (Energy storage coupled to DC-bus via DC/DC converter) More difficult to indicate when to use and when not to use DC/DC-converter. Some guidelines: Coupling via DC/DC-Converter allows for: → different (independent) voltage levels for energy storage components and drive DC-powerline → energy management ('active' control of the power flows) Control of power flows allows for fully use of potential of capacitor (deeper discharge possible), implement strategy (maximize energy recuperation, load leveling), better control of battery SOC... Choosing a dc-dc converter will be cost effective when having a big package of supercaps. → for small packages it is more difficult to say if a dc-dc converter is cost effective. (trade-off between price of the supercap package and price dc-converter) Combination of technologies: Following topologies have been identified: DC-Bus + Batteries + Super-capacitors DC-Bus + Batteries + DC/DC-Converters + Super-capacitors DC-Bus + High energy batteries + DC/DC converter + High power batteries 07-06-2012 70 © 2012 Sirris – FMTC – VUB www.sirris.be www.fmtc.be mobi.vub.ac.be
