A Battery Energy Storage System container is more than a metal shell—it is a frontline safety barrier that shields high-value batteries, power-conversion gear and auxiliary electronics from mechanical shock, fire risk and harsh climates.
Each test included a mocked-up initiating ESS unit rack and two target ESS unit racks installed within a standard size 6.06 m (20 ft) International Organization for Standardization (ISO) container. All tests were conducted with an identical LIB configuration.
ISO container The simulated ESS was constructed in a standard 6.06 m (20 ft) International Organization for Standardization (ISO) shipping container. The standard exterior dimensions of such a shipping container are 2.43 m (8 ft) wide, 2.59 m (8.5 ft) high, and 6.06 m (20 ft) long.
1. Objective Lithium-ion battery (LIB) energy storage systems (ESS) are an essential component of a sustainable and resilient modern electrical grid. ESS allow for power stability during increasing strain on the grid and a global push toward an increased reliance on intermittent renewable energy sources.
Various laboratory- and industrial-grade sensors were used to characterize the gas composition throughout container. A National Instruments SCXI-1001 chassis, SCXI-1600 DAQ controller, SCXI-1102 voltage input multiplexer, and a SCXI-TC2095 thermocouple input module were used to collect the data from the listed sensors.
The test facility has a floor area of 36 m by 36 m (118 ft x 118 ft) with a 14.6 m (48 ft) ceiling. The exhaust system operated with a volumetric flow rate of 420 m 3 /min (14800 cfm).
