Enhanced Cell Designs for Improved Internal Heat Transfer for High Rate and Power Capable, Large-Format Batteries Navy SBIR FY2015.1 Sol No.: Navy SBIR FY2015.1 Topic No.: N151-073 Topic Title: Enhanced Cell Designs for Improved Internal Heat Transfer for High Rate and Power Capable, Large-Format Batteries Proposal No.: N151-073-0229 Firm: K2 Energy Solutions, Inc. 7461 Eastgate Road Henderson, Nevada 89011 Contact: James Hodge Phone: (702) 478-3601 Web Site: www.k2energysolutions.com Abstract: K2 Energy Solutions already produces a line of high power cylindrical cells that have found use in a number of Navy pulse power applications. We will adapt this existing cylindrical cell lithium iron phosphate technology to design and fabricate a large, 25Ah, hard-cased prismatic cell capable of matching or exceeding the high power capabilities and long calendar and cycle life achievable in small cylindrical cells. Benefits: The large prismatic cells to be developed in this project will find application in a broad range of commercial applications, including hybrid electric vehicles, large vehicle starter batteries, and battery back-up systems.
