| Summary |
Thoroughly revised, comprehensive coverage of battery technology, characteristics, and applications. This fully updated guide offers complete coverage of batteries and battery usage--from classic designs to emerging technologies. Compiled by a pioneer in secondary lithium batteries, the book contains all the information needed to solve engineering problems and make proper battery selections. You will get in-depth descriptions of the principles, properties, and performance specifications of every major battery type. Linden's Handbook of Batteries, Fifth Edition, contains cutting-edge data and equations, design specifications, and troubleshooting techniques from international experts. New chapters discuss renewable energy systems, battery failure analysis, advanced lithium battery technologies, and new materials and component designs. Recent advances in electric motorcycles and general aviation electric aircraft are clearly explained, along with sections on maximizing re-chargeability, reducing cost, improving safety, and lessening environmental impact. Coverage includes: " Electricity, electrochemistry, and batteries " Raw materials " Battery components " Principles of electrochemical cell operations " Battery product overview " Electrochemical cell designs (platform technologies) " Primary and secondary batteries " Miscellaneous and specialty batteries (fuel cells, capacitors, metal/air) " Battery applications (EVs, grid storage, tools, medical) " Battery industry infrastructure (manufacturing, chargers, IP strategy). -- Provided by publisher |
