[OT] Formula E - Rapid Charging Pit Stops Secure Green Light - Racing Elite Formula 1, Motorsport, Racing

stage 1

[OT question] wasn’t there a thought to alternate the battery pack at some level of the escape? Or used to be that in a out of the ordinary sequence

stage 2

That used to be raised as a level masses of instances however finally it’s some distance succesful no longer feasible to originate a chassis which is willing to protect safety and enable easy catch admission to to swap the battery.

stage 2

They would also dangle deliberate it, however I bear no longer assume it could perhaps be coming, because or no longer it’s furthermore used to be a dead discontinuance for motorway vehicles, because or no longer it’s too pricey. So each and each from a marketing and marketing and the expertise transfer facet it wouldn’t bear grand sense

stage 2

Clearly they doubtlessly conception about it when the root of an electric single-seater racing sequence came up, however honestly the root used to be never deliberate critically.

The battery in these vehicles is mountainous heavy (250 kg) and it sits succesful on the ground of the vehicle lovely grand in the identical plot the catch aside an F1 vehicle would dangle its engine. So succesful the mechanical task of altering the battery would be too gradual and advanced. Now to no longer mutter what outcomes a swappable battery would desire to dangle on the chassis bear.

stage 1

450Kw (Up from 250Kw).
Recharging on the entrance and rear axle.
Energy birth handiest at the rear.
Recharge pitstops.
All on what are in actuality motorway tyres.

That sounds very fun.

stage 2

The tyres need an upgrade.

stage 2

Recharging on the entrance and rear axle.

That is what I’ve been searching forward to since the starting. Disgrace that the entrance axle’s allowed no force though. I deserve to note four wheel force beasts, however I bet that it could perhaps introduce crucial evils love torque vectoring that the FIA could perhaps also no longer desire to delve in.

stage 2

These vehicles cannot even bear it around Monaco. Why are they panicked about engine power of they cannot even take care of miniscule straights?

stage 1

30 seconds sounds love an sizable task. Most modern batteries dangle 28 kWh of usable power. Let’s retract that the gen 3 vehicles will furthermore dangle more a cramped more power, so the battery capability will be increased than half of of 28 kWh. That would be some distance beyond what most in style battery programs are in a space to full

stage 2

I bear no longer know sh*t about battery, power and stuff love this however what about of battery system which consist of more cells internal it and each single cell dangle neutral charging level. Additionally the charging station dangle neutral power provide for every battery cell.

I’m no longer that real in english, here is drawing for better clarification.

stage 2

Presumably which that it’s essential to retailer less power whenever you had been in a space to recharge , an much like in F1 if there used to be refueling which that it’s essential to retailer less gasoline

stage 1

Im alive to to note how they’re going to put into effect this to protect all americans qualified inquisitive about there could be going to be a moderately advantageous quantity of voltage flowing

stage 2

Voltage would no longer float. That would be love announcing gravity flows through a waterfall.

stage 2

The voltage is rarely truly truly that excessive. They discuss about 800-1000 volts. The Porsche Taycan furthermore makes use of an 800V system, so it mustn’t be an verbalize. That being stated, or no longer it’s furthermore typically the amperage that kills you

stage 1

This could perhaps also silent enable for more extremely tremendous vehicles as they’re no longer restricted by battery capability.

stage 2

Lighter vehicles perhaps to boot (when chassis 3 will get designed).

Either manner, a better power/weight ratio is welcome.

stage 1

With expected top power output will be 450kW, this could occasionally be very thrilling.

stage 2

They deliberate 600kW and later dropped it looks, 600kW would had been crazy, anyways now with 450kW they’ll comfortably escape at elephantine length Monaco or any FIA grade 2 circuits.

All it wants more is lower weight and better tyres.
