ABSTRACT

The aim of the INCOBAT project was to provide innovative and cost-efficient battery management systems for next generation of high voltage-batteries. INCOBAT proposes a platform concept that achieves cost reduction, reduced complexity, increased reliability, and flexibility while at the same time reaching higher energy efficiency. The innovations ensure a correct identification of customer needs and enable efficient integration into different platforms. The purpose of the innovation work packages s was to provide innovative outcomes, either as transversal innovation over the different technologies, or as technology innovation. The system architecture specification model used to model the BMS system as well as its direct environment resulted in 1132 model artifacts in total and 2206 connections between these elements, including and mapping functional, architecture and safety information. The development and validation plan provided guidelines for the different abstraction levels and components and also included relevant measures and test specifications.
