Accumulators secondary batteries

Accumulators in increased safety - e - cover traction batteries for locomotives in coal mines (see Fig. 6.4) as well as batteries for forklifts in chemical plants or other transportation vehicles running in hazardous areas powered by their own energy storage system. Much smaller accumulators are used as a mains-independent power source for handlamps and caplamps (Fig. 6.65) used in potentially explosive atmospheres. 

Accumulators shall be of the lead-acid, nickel-iron or nickel-cadmium type. For accumulators with a capacity exceeding 25 Ah (at the 5 hours rate) IEC 60079-7 and EN 50019 contain specific requirements for construction and

Fig. 13.33. Simplified energy-efficiency diagram for coal as the primary fuel for traction through liquefaction and electricity generation. The figures on each line are the approximate efficiencies for each process. The value of 0.8 for the storage and distribution of electrical energy contains the contribution from the efficiency of charging equipment. The value of 0.6 for the secondary battery (accumulator) combines the efficiency for storage (0.67) and electrical drive (0.9). (Reprinted from C. H. Hamann, A. Hamnett, and W.

It is interesting to note that, in contrast to chemical reactions, electrochemical cells can operate in principle against a positive AG if an outer current source is applied, driving the electrons in the opposite direction. This is the principle of the secondary batteries and electrochemical power sources, which can be charged and discharged to accumulate and release electrical energy. 

Secondary batteries, in which the conversion is reversible by supplying electrical energy to the cell and reversing the chemical changes. Secondary batteries are also called electric accumulators syn. electric storage batteries or storage batteries. 

Secondary Cells In contrast to what is the case in primary cells, it is mostly reversible processes that run at the electrodes of secondary cells (also called secondary batteries or accumulators). These cells are rechargeable. 

In the area of the Deutsche Telekom, most different battery systems are as shown in Figure 8.1. Primary batteries mainly are used in measuring instruments. Alkaline secondary batteries (accumulators) have a great importance in the area of communication technology, such as on mobile phones as well as on cordless phones. Still they are used as starter batteries for mobile network substitute installations (generator sets). 

Batteries and telephones were developed in the first half of the 19th century. The power supply of the telephone consisted at the beginning of its development of primary batteries. Initially the batteries were placed in the telephone users facilities and were called Ortsbatterie (stationary battery). In the course of further development, the batteries, now accumulators or secondary batteries, were installed in the central exchange office, in German im Amt, and therefore called Amtsbatterie (office battery). Until today the Amtsbatterie is retained from the subscriber.

AA-size cells constracted by Battery Technologies Inc. in the U.S. show very good endurance tests. These cells accumulate up to 400 cycles on the 24-Q test and up to 250 cycles on the 10-Q test. The Li-Mn02 cells developed by Sanyo Electric Co. in Japan are termed ML 2430 and ML 2016 with nominal capacity of 70 and 20 mA h, respectively. About 200 cycles are obtained at a capacity of 45 mA h. The flat-type battery ML 2430 with a nominal voltage of 3 V can operate over 3000 cycles at a low discharge capacity of 1 mA h. European efforts are also directed toward Li-Mn02 secondary batteries. Researches are developed by SAFT in France and Varta in Germary (see Table 11.7).
