Abstract
A system for predicting degradation of a battery for use in an electric vehicle is presented. The system includes a computing device communicatively connected to at least a pack monitor unit, wherein the at least a pack monitor unit is configured to detect a battery pack datum of a plurality of battery modules incorporated in a battery pack. The computing device is further configured to receive the battery pack datum as a function of the at least a pack monitor unit, generate, as a function of the battery pack datum, a battery pack model associated with the battery pack of the electric vehicle, and determine a battery degradation prediction as a function of the battery pack datum and the battery pack model.
Claims20
A system for making a prediction related to a battery during use in an electric aircraft, the system comprising:
- a computing device communicatively connected to a pack monitor unit, wherein:
- the pack monitor unit is configured to detect a battery pack datum of a plurality of battery modules incorporated in a battery pack;
- and
- the computing device is configured to:
- receive the battery pack datum as a function of the pack monitor unit;
- generate, as a function of the battery pack datum, a digital twin comprising a battery pack model associated with the battery pack of the electric aircraft;
- receive periodic instances of battery pack data;
- and
- periodically update the digital twin as a function of the periodic instances of battery pack data.
A method for making a prediction related to a battery during use in an electric aircraft, the method comprising:
- detecting, by at least a pack monitor unit communicatively connected to a computing device, a battery pack datum of a plurality of battery modules incorporated in a battery pack;
- receiving, by the computing device, the battery pack datum from the pack monitor unit;
- generating, as a function of the battery pack datum, a digital twin comprising a battery pack model associated with the battery pack of the electric aircraft;
- receiving, by the computing device, periodic instances of battery pack data;
- and
- periodically updating, by the computing device, the digital twin as a function of the received battery pack data.
