With the continuous development of the new energy vehicle market, the range has become a common focus of consumers and car companies. As an important part of the battery system of new energy vehicles, the weight of the New Energy Battery Tray has a direct impact on the range. Therefore, reducing the weight of the New Energy Battery Tray has become one of the effective ways to increase the range of new energy vehicles.
First, reducing the weight of the New Energy Battery Tray can significantly reduce the weight of the vehicle. The New Energy Battery Tray accounts for about 20% to 30% of the total weight of the battery system. The use of lightweight materials such as aluminum alloy can significantly reduce the weight of the tray, thereby reducing the weight of the vehicle. According to research, for every 10% reduction in the weight of the vehicle, the range can be increased by about 6% to 8%. Therefore, reducing the weight of the New Energy Battery Tray is of great significance to improving the range of new energy vehicles.
Secondly, the use of lightweight materials can also increase the energy density of the battery system. Lightweight materials such as aluminum alloys have higher strength and better thermal conductivity, which can improve the safety and stability of the battery system. At the same time, the use of lightweight materials can also reduce the volume and weight of the battery system, thereby increasing the energy storage per unit weight and improving the energy density of the battery system.
Finally, reducing the weight of the New Energy Battery Tray can also reduce the energy consumption of the vehicle. The reduction of the vehicle mass can reduce the rolling resistance and air resistance of the vehicle and reduce the energy loss during the vehicle's driving. At the same time, the use of lightweight materials can also improve the vehicle's transmission efficiency and braking performance, further reducing energy consumption.
In summary, the impact of reducing the weight of the New Energy Battery Tray on the cruising range of new energy vehicles is mainly reflected in reducing the mass of the vehicle, increasing the energy density of the battery system and reducing the energy consumption of the vehicle. Therefore, in the design and manufacturing process of new energy vehicles, attention should be paid to the lightweight design of the New Energy Battery Tray, and advanced lightweight materials and processes should be used to improve the cruising range and performance of new energy vehicles.
