2022 Tesla Semi Specifications
In order that we can understand the specifications of the battery pack it is necessary to at first piece together the vehicle. Warning: this page is going to have updates/amendments over time and some values are likely to be an estimate. Specifications A typical single tank semi can do circa 550miles and tanks hold up … Read more
2022 Tesla Model Y 4680
Caution: This is a very difficult pack to reconcile the numbers around at the moment and so we are continually updating our calculations and estimates. We will get there, but it might take some time. Specifications: Assuming the 4680 cell from the Munro teardown is correct at 23.35Ah then we have the following parameters: Assuming … Read more
Tesla 4680 Cathode Porosity
Indicative numbers for the Tesla 4680 cathode porosity, estimated based on 2D images of the Batch 1 and 2 cells originally analysed for The Limiting Factor by the Laboratory for Energy Storage and Conversion, UC San Diego. This image analysis and estimation was performed by Addionics based on the original Tesla 4680 cell benchmarking. Analysis … Read more
Electric Vehicle On Board Charger
Current from the Grid (AC) goes through EVSE (Charging Station Either Level 1 or 2) through a connector to the On Board Charger. The Onboard Charger rectifies or converts the current into DC and sends it via the Battery Management System (BMS) to the Battery Pack
Tesla 4680 Cell
The Tesla 4680 cell has intrigued ever since it was announced. A cylindrical cell that is 46mm in diameter and 80mm high. Estimated Specifications: Capacity tests [6]: Capacity: 23.35Ah at 2.5A discharge ~C/10 Capacity: 20Ah at 25A discharge ~1C 26.5Ah (estimate based on 21700 5Ah volumetric energy density) and this fits with capacity of the … Read more
