Energy Research Corporation has developed a simulated passenger electric vehicle test for its Nickel-Zinc secondary battery that could be adaptable to other battery systems. From published use patterns of conventional vehicles a typical trip distribution pattern has been established. Batteries are tested at various depths of discharge under typical electric vehicle loads to simulate distribution of trips from 25 to 100 miles. The test time is accelerated by eliminating rest periods between simulated trips (discharges) so that the equivalent of one year's driving can be accumulated within 42 days. The test pattern and initial results of first generation Nickel-Zinc cells presented. (ERA citation 08:026602)
