From battery tests to battery emulation, and from single components to complete electrified powertrains, AVL E-STORAGE BTE offers you a comprehensive, versatile solution. Our robust and accurate tool features a unique model-based and predictive control strategy with outstanding stability. This supports realistic battery emulation and allows it to reproduce highly dynamic charge and discharge load profiles for battery testing.
We have designed the performance of E-STORAGE BTE to have minimal influence on test results, ensuring system and time accuracy for exact replays of driving profiles. This leads to a highly efficient testing process that saves time and reduces costs. Furthermore, you can use the system as a highly stable voltage source.
Replication of High Dynamic Profiles
With a current rise time below 2ms the device is ready to replicate highly dynamic load profiles without leaving gaps.
Replication of High Current Profiles
For configurations with parallelized output channels, replication of highly current and dynamic load profiles is possible.
Wide Variety of Customers with Different Demands
Different customers may have different demands for testing and the E-STORAGE BTE covers low power to high power demands with the given portfolio.
We have optimized the system’s control strategy to ensure realistic battery modelling when used as a standalone RT solution and when integrated into our automation platform. Our battery models MoBat behave like a real battery, at cell, module, and pack level. By applying different models, you can replicate test runs for multiple testing scenarios.
When we created the AVL E-STORAGE BTE, we put flexibility and automation at its core. Automated configuration changes in the Power Distribution Switch Box (PDSB) reduce test bed downtime and increase availability and utilization. This allows the automated switching between test beds as well as the parallelization of systems without any manual modifications
