Abstract
A system for controlling a cooling assembly of a battery system includes a sensor configured to indicate an increase in a loading on the battery system. The system also includes a controller communicably coupled with the sensor. The controller is configured to receive the indication of the increase in the loading on the battery system. The controller is also configured to generate a control signal to activate the cooling assembly to cool one or more components of the battery system based on the increase in the loading on the battery system.
Claims20
A system for controlling a cooling assembly of a battery system, the system comprising:
- a sensor configured to indicate an increase in a loading on the battery system;
- and
- a controller communicably coupled with the sensor, wherein the controller is configured to:
- receive the indication of the increase in the loading on the battery system;
- and
- generate a control signal to activate the cooling assembly to cool one or more components of the battery system based on the increase in the loading on the battery system.
A battery system comprising:
- one or more battery modules;
- a cooling assembly for the battery system;
- and
- a system for controlling the cooling assembly, the system including:
- a sensor configured to indicate an increase in a loading on the battery system;
- and
- a controller communicably coupled with the sensor, wherein the controller is configured to:
- receive the indication of the increase in the loading on the battery system;
- and
- generate a control signal to activate the cooling assembly to cool one or more components of the battery system based on the increase in the loading on the battery system.
A method for controlling a cooling assembly of a battery system, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a sensor, an indication of an increase in a loading on the battery system;
- receiving, by a controller, the indication of the increase in the loading on the battery system;
- and
- generating, by the controller, a control signal to activate the cooling assembly to cool one or more components of the battery system based on the increase in the loading on the battery system.
