Page 32: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

General Sizing ConsiderationsGeneral Sizing Considerations

The battery must supply the DC power when:

1. The load on the dc system exceeds the maximum output of the charger

2. The output of the charger is interrupted3. The AC power is lost (may result in

greater dc power demand than item 2.)

Page 33: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Define the System LoadsDefine the System Loads

Continuous – energized throughout the duty cycle

Noncontinuous - energized only during a portion of the duty cycle, defined duration

Momentary - short duration loads not exceeding 1 minute at any occurrence.– Lead Acid: considered a full minute,1 minute– Nickel Cadmium: for loads < 1 sec, consider

1 second

Page 34: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Define Load & ApplicationDefine Load & Application

Steady Loads – typically Telecom, “long duration” 8 hour backupsKVA/KW Loads – typically UPS, “high rate, short duration” 15 minutes, KVA/KW ratingsStep Loads –Switchgear & Control –Utility Applications – “step loads” -combination of high rates and long duration

Page 35: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Load ClassificationLoad ClassificationThe loads applied to the battery are

either:– Constant power (inverters, dc/dc power

supplies)

– Constant resistance (dc motor starting, relays, contactors, lights)

– Constant current (running dc motors)

For Sizing purposes, loads are treated as Constant Power or Constant Current

Battery Size – Nominal RatingBattery Size – Nominal Rating

Ampere-hour: 8 hour capacity of a lead acid storage battery (in the US)

– The quantity of electricity that the battery can deliver in amp-hours at the 8 hour rate.

– Example: a “2000 Ampere Hour” battery will provide 250 amps for 8 hours to 1.75 volts per cell (2000/8 = 250 amps continuously for 8 hours)

Nickel Cadmium: 5 hour or 10 hour or 20 hour rate

Page 38: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Battery Size – Constant Power Rating

Battery Size – Constant Power Rating

UPS batteries are rated in Watts or kW– kW/cell x number of cells = kWb

For a specified time period to a specified end voltage, e.g.15 minutes to 1.67 volts per cell

Battery is typically sized for full load of the UPS system

Page 39: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Important Sizing ConsiderationsImportant Sizing ConsiderationsOperating Temperature

– Affects the available capacity– Size for the lowest expected

temperature– At high temperatures use the rated

capacity for 77° F– High temperature affects battery life– Cold temperature affects battery

capacity– For Nickel Cadmium- see manufacturer

Page 40: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Temperature Correction FactorsTemperature Correction FactorsFrom IEEE Std 485-2010

Page 41: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Important Sizing ConsiderationsImportant Sizing Considerations

Aging Margin – LEAD ACID:– Replacement criteria = 80% of rated

capacity.– Battery is defined at end of life at 80%

capacity– The initial rated capacity of the

battery should be at least 125 percent (1.25 aging factor) of the load expected at the end of its service life.

Page 42: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Important Sizing ConsiderationsImportant Sizing Considerations Aging – NICKEL CADMIUM:

– No defined end of life point– Capacity gradually decreases (linear)– 1.25 margin is typically used– Aging margins of 1.10 – 1.40 may apply

Page 43: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Important Sizing ConsiderationsImportant Sizing Considerations

Initial Capacity– Batteries may have less than rated

capacity when delivered. Unless 100 % capacity upon delivery is specified, the initial capacity can be as low as 90% of rated capacity (per IEEE-485)

– Typical UPS and Switchgear batteries ship at 100%; Telecom at 90%

Page 44: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Important Sizing ConsiderationsImportant Sizing Considerations

Nickel Cadmium

– For the float application (telecom, switchgear, UPS), make sure to use the data based on Constant Potential Float Charging.

Page 45: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Important Sizing ConsiderationsImportant Sizing Considerations

Design margin– It is prudent to provide a capacity

margin to the battery sizing for unforeseen additions to the dc system and less than optimum operating conditions.

– Typical design margins are 10-15%.

Page 46: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Battery SizeBattery Size Factors governing battery size:

– Maximum system voltage– Minimum system voltage– Correction factors (e.g. aging, temperature)– Duty cycle

If cells of sufficiently large capacity are not available, then two or more strings may be connected in parallel. The capacity of such a battery is the sum of the capacities of the strings.

Page 47: Stationary Battery Sizing - IEEE

Number of CellsNumber of Cells

The maximum and minimum allowable system voltage (“voltage window”) determines the number of cells in the battery.

When the battery voltage is not allowed to exceed a given maximum system voltage the number of cells will be limited by the cell voltage required for satisfactory charging.
