More Book Details

Description of the Book:

An investigation was made of the use of the FC-2 Liquid Ammonia Prototype Battery for short-life reserve primary battery applications. The completely self-contained unit, in a volume of 90 cu cm (5.5 cu in.), proved capable of operating for 5 min at a nominal 28 V, 1 A. Performance was satisfactory under simulated missile environments, including shock, vibration, spin, and temperature (-54 to +74C or -65 to +165F). An organic oxidant, m- dinitrobenzene (mDNB), is used as the cell cathode, and the reserve activation feature is provided by storing the electrolyte solvent, anhydrous liquid ammonia, in a separate compartment of the battery case. The basic electrochemical system is Mg/KSCN/NH4SCN-mDNB-C/stainless steel (Type 302). The measured volume enersity of this model for a 5 min discharge is 54 J/cu cm (0.1 Wh/cu in.), and weight enersity is 20 J/g (2.5 Wh/lb
