BMW Liquid Cooled Commuter Scooter
BMW Motorrad’s new scooter has more than a 60-mile range and a recharge time of around three hours. The bike’s specs are possible thanks to an innovative design that uses the aluminum battery casing in lieu of a main frame. While the electric motor and electronics are liquid cooled, the battery itself is air cooled in order to save space. Learn more from Wired. … [Read more...]
New Technology Improves Electric Car Batteries
Unveiled last year by the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), the Large-Volume Battery Calorimeter (LVBC) is a crucial tool in helping automakers get the batteries they need for the next generation of electric vehicles that can deliver the range, performance, reliability and safety drivers expect. The LVBC is designed to precisely measure … [Read more...]
Nanotechnology Converting a Car’s Waste Heat into Electrical Power
Up to 60 percent of each $4 gallon of gas is wasted, lost as heat that pours out of the exhaust pipe. The technology to collect some of that heat and convert it back into electricity that can recharge the battery exists, but it’s still a work in progress. The solution lies in thermoelectric devices. A material whose response to a change in temperature generates electric … [Read more...]
