Larson [email protected] Felienne Hermans [email protected] Delft University of Technology Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science July, 2014 FOREWORD This report serves as the official end deliverable for the TI3800 Bachelor Project. This project, also referred to as “Bachelor Eindproject” or “BEP”, is the course that finishes the Bachelor of Computer Science at Delft University of Technology. It is carried out by groups that are given the assignment to work together like a software development team, producing a real product to be used by a real client, solving a real- world problem. In this sense all knowledge that is gained in the three year studies is needed to successfully finish this project. In the case of our team, we have done a very practical project at the Nuon Solar Team. In short: our goal was to reengineer an existing telemetry application for the chase car of the Nuon Solar Car. The contents of the Bachelor Project were revealed on February the 17th. After that, the project would officially start on the 21th of April (Week 17). However, as this team needed more time for both research and development, it was decided to start on the 11th of March (Week 11). Furthermore, the project has unofficially been extended with one week, to be finished at the 11th of July (Week 28). During these weeks our team has been present full time at the Delft University of Technology, mostly at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science and often at the Nuon Solar Team workplace. We would like to thank the following persons in particular: Nicolas Dintzner, for being the best coach we could imagine: critical, supportive, smart and with a great sense of humor. We could not have wished for anyone better. Rune van der Meijden, for giving us helpful feedback, support and stories about the Nuon Solar Team. Noud Brasjen, for being present at numerous extensive sessions to give us a deeper understanding of his code and our purpose. Bart Koek, for doing the best he could to arrange us work spots and valuable time with the Nuna solar car. Arie van Deursen, for giving us a lot of support on making our code extensible, maintainable and simply looking more structured than ever before. Martha Larsson, for always answering our urgent questions about applying the general Bachelor Project rules to our special project.

  • Battery Management System Voor Nuna
    Vakcode: EE3842 Battery management system voor Nuna Spanningsmeting, voedingscircuits en PCB-ontwerp Datum: 18-06-2014 Auteurs: L.M. Middelburg 4182111 D.M. van Willigen 4171993 Delft University of Technology Samenvatting Dit document beschrijft het ontwerpproces van een deel van de subsystemen uit het Battery Management System wat voor het bachelor eindproject is uitgevoerd. Voor het ontwerp van het BMS is een modulaire master-slave topologie gebruikt. De behandelde subsystemen zijn de spanningsmeting, de voeding, het PCB-ontwerp en de CAN-isolatie. De belangrijkste problemen in deze subsystemen bij het huidige BMS zijn dat de afzonderlijke cellen een ander spanningsniveau krijgen, dat het BMS de cellen te snel ontlaadt en dat de communicatie via CAN niet optimaal is. Na onderzoek bleek dat de eerste twee problemen werden veroorzaakt door niet prakti- sche waarden voor de ingangsimpedantie voor de afzonderlijke cel aansluitingen. Het gekozen ontwerp voor de spanningsmeting maakt daarom gebruik van een multiplex topologie, dus een hoge ingangsimpe- dantie wanneer het BMS uit is. De implementatie hiervan wordt verzorgd door een IC. Gemeten is dat de ingangimpedantie van de ontworpen spanningsmeting in de orde ligt van tientallen MW. Voor de voeding is gebruik gemaakt van twee buck-converters, omdat de CAN communicatie galvanisch gescheiden dient te zijn. De converters zijn ge¨ımplementeerd met IC’s als switch en bereiken efficienties¨ van 80% en 55% in het toegepaste bereik. Tevens zijn de rimpelspanningen 70mV en 24mV voor respec- tievelijk de PCB- en de CAN-converter. Gezien de context waarin dit ontwerp plaatsvindt, is er tijdens het ontwerp steeds op gelet om energiever- liezen zo gering mogelijk te houden.

  • CONVERTER DESIGN for Nuna Maximum Power Point Tracker
    Farnaz Nassiri Nia Aarnoud Tjerk Sluimer CONVERTER DESIGN for Nuna Maximum Power Point Tracker TU Delft Faculty of EEMCS July 2, 2012 2 Abstract he world is rapidly moving towards a greener future, a mainstay of which is solar energy. Hence, maximum power point trackers, or T MPPTs for short, are an indispensable component, since these devices provide one with the capability to fully maximize the achievable power from solar cells in a system. A symbol of the greener world that is evolving around us is the biannual World Solar Challenge, where state-of-the-art solar powered cars race against one another through the deserts of Australia. This thesis forms the link between these two elements: to design an MPPT optimally suited towards the requirements of the Nuna Solar Car. Commercially available MPPTs are not particularly well suited for the specific demands of such a bleeding edge race. They are mostly designed for high power or low voltage systems. The MPPT designed during this thesis is optimized for high efficiency and other requests stated by the Nuon Solar Team members. The design of the MPPT has been split into several parts. This thesis is focused on the converter within the MPPT. It presents the result of research, design exploration, simulation and testing. The results obtained with the prototype that has been built show the designs correctness and conformance to the requirements, with an efficiency of up to 98,5%. 3 4 Preface s part of the Bachelor program Electrical Engineering at the EEMCS faculty of Delft University of Technology, a research project has been A performed for the course Bachelor Afstudeer Project, or BAP for short.
