Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 33Emergence of Elevated Battery Positioning in Air Cooled Battery Packs for Temperature Uniformity in Ultra-Fast Dis/Charging Applications(Elsevier, 2022) Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, ErdalPure electric vehicles (EVs) are gradually becoming major interest of research in worldwide. Battery cells in EV battery packs must be kept in between the desired operational temperature range (similar to 30 degrees C) and temperature should be homogeneous in packs to eliminate safety risks and prolong battery life. In this study, performance of a novel BTMS design was studied at various discharge conditions with fast and ultra-fast C-rate values. Cooling with natural convection exceeds desired operational temperature in the pack as well as forced air convection in Z-type manifold. Elevated battery positions yield flow resistance along the air channels in between battery cells to be uniform which yields flow rate sweeping the surface of each cell to be the same. Therefore, the maximum temperature in between cells decreases to less than 0.3K from the order of 12K. The temperature uniformity is essential for ageing and electrical resistance of cells to be homogeneous in a pack. In addition, heat transfer enhancement with various fin designs is documented as well as its effect on the temperature distribution. The accuracy of numerical studies is validated by experimental work. The results show that the peak temperature can be kept under the desired operational temperature with minimum deviation in the temperature difference for distinct operation conditions required for advanced electric vehicles (cars, airplanes, helicopters) with extreme charging and discharging capability.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 26Fuzzy Logic for Rainfall-Runoff Modelling Considering Soil Moisture(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2015) Tayfur, G.; Brocca, L.This study developed Mamdani-type fuzzy logic model to simulate daily discharge as a function of soil moisture measured at three different depths (10, 20 and 40 cm) and rainfall. The model was applied to 13 km2 size Colorso Basin in central Italy for a period from October 2002 to April 2004. For each variable of soil moisture, rainfall, and discharge, 9 fuzzy subsets were employed while 30 fuzzy rules, relating the input variables (soil moisture and rainfall) to the output variable (discharge), were optimized. The model employed the min inferencing, max composition, and the centroid method. The model application results revealed that Mamdani-type fuzzy logic model can be employed to incorporate soil moisture along with rainfall to simulate discharge. Using soil moisture measured at 40 cm soil depth along with rainfall produced better simulation of discharge with NS=0.68 and R= 0.82. The performance of the model was also tested against a conceptual rainfall- runoff model of MISDc (Modello Idrologico Semi-Distribuito in continuo). MISDc couples an event-specific component with a module for continuous time soil water balance for taking into account the variable antecedent wetness conditions. The MISDc model requires estimation of seven parameters and the measurements of the hydrometeorological variables such as rainfall and air temperature. The comparative study revealed that fuzzy model performs better in capturing runoff peak rates and overall trend of high and small flooding events. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2015.
