O1 JUN 1987 SECTION 3 DEFINITIONS 3.1 BATTERY A battery for use on space vehicle

15、s is an assembly of battery cells electrically connected in series to provide the desired voltage. Generally, the cells are physically integrated into either a single assembly or into several separate assemblies connected in series. The battery may also include one or more attachments such as electr

16、ical bypass devices, heaters, strain gauges, temperature sensors, or thermal switches. 3.2 BATTERY CAPACITY (C) The “nameplate“ or “rated“ nickel-cadmium battery capacity is denoted by C. It is the minimum number of ampere-hours that a battery, that has been charged at C/10 amperes for 16 f. 2 hours

17、, is required to provide when discharged at C/2 amperes to an average cell voltage of 1.0 volts, at beginning of life (initial battery acceptance test). Both the C/10 charge and the C/2 discharge are with the battery at a stabilized ambient O temperature of 22 3 degrees C. 3.3 BATTERY CELL A battery

18、 cell is a single unit device that transforms chemical energy into electrical energy at a characteristic voltage when discharged. Battery cells covered by this standard are hermetically sealed, contain nickel and cadmium electrodes, and have passed formal acceptancs test requirements. 3.4 BATTERY CO

19、NDITIONING MODULE A battery conditioning module is a ground support apparatus that performs the function of discharging a battery, through the battery main power connectors, or discharging individual battery cells, through a wiring harness connected to each of the battery cell terminals, at specifie

20、d controlled discharge currents. A number of battery conditioning modules currently in use have the battery discharging as well as the charging function packaged in a single unit. 3 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-DOD-STD-1578B (USAF)

21、 O1 JUN 1987 3.5 BATTERY SET A battery set is the complete complement of two or more nickel-cadmium batteries installed in the same space vehicle. 3.6 CELL ACTIVATION The addition of potassium hydroxide (KOH) electrolyte to the nickel cadmium cell during final assembly and test constitutes cell acti

22、vation. 3.7 C/n CHARGE OR DISCHARGE CURRENT The charge or discharge current for a battery is defined as C/n amperes where C is the rated battery capacity in ampere-hours and n is any value for elapsed time measured in hours. For example, a discharge current of C/2 for a 16 ampere-hour rated battery

23、is a discharge current of 8 amperes. 3.8 COLD STORAGE Cold storage for nickel-cadmium batteries that are not in use is long term storage where the temperature environment is controlled between -10 degrees C and +5 degrees C. 3.9 DEPTH OF DISCHARGE The depth of discharge for a battery that has been c

24、harged at least to its rated capacity (C) is the ratio of capacity removed during discharge to the rated battery capacity (C) expressed as a percentage. 3.10 DESTRUCTIVE PHYSICAL ANALYSIS Destructive physical analysis of a battery cell is a systematic, logical, detailed examination of the cell, incl

25、uding examination and measurement during various stages of physical disassembly, and subsequent chemical, electrochemical, and metallurgical analysis. 3.11 HIGH RATE CHARGE A high rate charge current is the current sequence used to recharge a battery to its rated capacity. 4 Provided by IHSNot for R

27、ch as dry nitrogen. Usually an inert gas pressurizing system is used to maintain a positive pressure of approximately +125 millimeters vertical water column above ambient conditions. If an adequate purge is not provided, the seal integrity may be the most important feature, since the partial pressur

28、e of water vapor, or other contaminants, across the seal is independent of the internal pressure of the inert gas. 3.13 QUIESCENT PERIODS Quiescent periods are the periods of time during either ground or on-orbit operations that a charged battery is not in active use, that is, it is not being discha

29、rged or recharged except for possible trickle charge. 3.14 RECHARGE RATIO The recharge ratio for a battery is the number of ampere-hours returned to the battery by high rate charging, exclusive of trickle charge, divided by the number of ampere-hours removed from the battery during the preceding dis

30、charge. 3.15 RECONDITIONING Reconditioning of a nickel-cadmium battery is a discharge-charge sequence intended to minimize degradation of the battery electrical performance. The process involves the discharge of the battery at a C/100 rate or less, to an average cell voltage of 1.0 volts or less. Th

31、e subsequent charging process should be sufficient to restore the rated, or actual measured capacity, whichever is greater, and to conpensate for charge inefficiency. 3.16 SHORTING PLUG A shorting plug is a device that provides a current path across the terminals of each individual cell of a fully d

32、ischarged nickel-cadmium battery in order to finally discharge all .battery cells and maintain a shorted condition at the cell level. Shorting plugs are generally connected to an intermediate mating connector mounted on the battery case, or on the space vehicle structure, where the intermediate conn

33、ector leads form a wiring harness that is in turn connected to each of the battery cell terminals. 5 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-DOD-STD-1578B (USAF) O1 JUN 1987 3.17 STATE OF CHARGE The state of charge of a battery that has been

34、charged at least to its rated capacity, is the ratio of the rated battery capacity (C) minus capacity removed, to the rated battery capacity (C), expressed as a percentage. Thus, the state of charge is 100 percent minus the depth of discharge. 3.18 TRICKLE CHARGE A trickle charge current is a low ra

35、te charging current usually used following a significantly higher charge current to offset open circuit stand losses that would occur in the absence of the lower rate trickle charge current. 6 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-DOD-STD-3
