Electric vehicle energy storage housing chassis

What is a chassis (1) battery housing?

In Chassis (1) battery housings are incorporated into the structural domain of a vehicle model, providing a parts consolidation solution compared to simple addition within a ladder frame chassis. Here, methodology tunability is also discussed and used to develop various alternative chassis concepts.

Can a ladder frame chassis be used for EV powertrain components?

Replacement of a conventional ladder frame chassis for integration of electric vehicle powertrain components (battery housings and motors). This case study explores the lightweight design of an EV chassis with integrated modular battery housings.

What is an EV battery enclosure?

(Novelis) EV battery enclosures are a hotbed of subsystem design, materials innovation, and vehicle integration. Whether you call them packs, boxes, or trays, the structures that envelop and protect EV battery cells and their supporting electrical and thermal-management hardware are among the industry’s top subsystem priorities.

What are EV chassis designs?

Optimized EV chassis designs with distributed batteries of various specifications initialized by two kinds of common battery designs: a 25 cylinder cells with a diameter of 278.8 mm and b 16 cube cells with a dimension of 350 mm \ (\times\) 270 mm

How can EV chassis improve mechanical properties?

By solving the optimization problem, an EV chassis with distributed various specification batteries can be obtained, which exhibits better comprehensive mechanical properties than that with centralized uniform specification batteries under the same battery capacity and structural weight.

Which EVs use a multi-material battery enclosure?

Bucking that trend is GM’s 9000-lb. (4082-kg) Hummer EV, which uses a multi-material battery enclosure. Tesla also has reduced the amount of aluminum in the battery enclosure for the Model 3 and Model Y compared to what was used in its S and X models.
