Some current DO-160 qualified Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries often do not limit
charge current. A distinct difference in next-gen similarly qualified LFP batteries
is to enable the end-user to limit charge current by programming the
battery management system. There are clearly implications. Particularly for all
electric aircraft. A large 28VDC 40A-hr lfp battery might be good for 700A
continuous discharge and could draw 600A if fully discharged on a charge cycle.
If charged with a 400A starter-generator, this could put the generation system
into overload, and the limit is reached in seconds. Even a 50% discharged lfp
battery of this size draws huge charge currents for not insignificant durations.
It would be interesting to see the effect of critical utilisation equipment
hung off a bus with this issue. Thoughts?

What goes around . . . comes around . . .
Had some similar thoughts back in the hey-day
of wet ni-cads finding their way onto airplanes.
A number of airplanes suffered battery fires
due to high rate energy replenishment after engine
start. The same conditions contributed to
root cause. Smaller batteries with lower
thermal mass. Lower internal resistance
translating into a battery's willingness to accept
replenishment.
The 'fix' was to add crew monitored
battery temperature warning systems to
the airplane. Here's an example . . .
Emacs!
The idea was that when the yellow light
came on, the crew would disconnect the
battery from the bus until the temperature
fell to happier territory.
Back in those days, I was participating in
a series of design programs for alternator
and/or generator controllers. In numerous
design reviews I proposed that our product
included battery temperature monitoring
that would effect automatic bus voltage
reduction until such time that the battery
would again accept replenishment at the
high rate. Some of the twin turbine
a/c had DUAL 600A generators!
The idea was pushed aside as in the 'too
hard' pile. We'd have to re-qualify
a fleet wide array of controllers. Adding
the 'band-aid' to aircraft carrying ni-cads
was a much simpler solution.
In years since, improvements in lead-acid
technologies lowered cell impedances
to the point that RG batteries were
subject to discharge/recharge overheat
in a/c with large generators. So
lead-acid batteries began to sprout
connectors to carry temperature sensor
data to . . . you guessed it . . .
the cockpit mounted warning system.
Emacs!
So here we are again. Itty bitty LiPO4
cells quite capable of producing engine
cranking power are similarly at-risk
for reduced service life from a pair
of stresses. (1) high temperature
induced by extended current flows
with I(squared)R losses dumped into
very low thermal mass and (2) over
discharge below some voltage threshold
that trashes the chemistry.
Folks like Earth-X and TrueBlue have
built protections into their battery.
Why? Because the primary instigators
of risk to the battery (charging
system and battery contactor) have
no idea as to the battery's condition
hence not configured to do the
really simple job of mitigating
battery abuse.
In the OBAM aviation world, we have
opportunity to take the next step
in power system management and control.
It would be no big deal to build
alternator controllers that would
take battery chemistry and size
into account . . . totally eliminating
the need for temperature monitoring.
Similarly, a battery contactor controller
could be crafted to simply unhook the
battery when the voltage dropped below
some established limit.
Perhaps its time that the DC power system
be treated as an orchestra of components
that play well TOGETHER. Right now, the
players are marching to their own tunes
with nary a care for each other's limits
and needs.

have a question that's only somewhat applicable to E/AB aviation, apologies in
advance. But I think it points out a hole in my electrical understanding.
The characteristics of the lithium iron battery I'm running allow it to draw lots
of current really fast after the engine starts. If it has been a little while
since the last flight, the alternator is at max output for several minutes.
The alternator puts out all it can give, and it's less than the battery wants
to take.
Stepping out of the hangar, my tow vehicle circuitry includes a wire in the 7-pin
connector that provides alternator voltage to the trailer, intending to charge
a small battery for a breakaway emergency brake. If I install a larger battery
for other purposes, perhaps one like what is in the airplane, and connect
it to that line coming from the truck, it seems like it would almost certainly
open the fuse on that circuit during that initial high-draw stage.
These two scenarios had me thinking, what methods would one have to limit a hungry
battery's draw? I'm imagining some type of circuit that takes in 12-14 volts,
and puts out almost the same, but only at some specified number of amps. Almost
like a DC-powered battery charging circuit, rather than just putting the
battery on the bus directly.
Surely this has been solved in some off-the-shelf widget, but I haven't figured
out the words to google yet.

So why not try using diodes first before trying more complicated methods to reduce
the voltage and current. An assortment of diodes with various forward voltage
drops could be tried. Yes, it is trial and error. But so is finding the
ideal voltage output of a DC-DC converter.
By the way, it is physically impossible to reduce the battery charging current
without lowering the charging voltage that is connected to the battery.

No, these are intended to perform the
same function as breakers and fuses.
Placed in series with the power path
to an electrical load, they present
a low resistance at or below a certain
temperature. Should an overload occur,
they warm past the 'trip point' where
the resistance rises rapidly thus
mitigating the fault current.
See:
https://tinyurl.com/7vt49mw
https://tinyurl.com/y2uh3byy
The TC aircraft world flirted with these
critters on several occasions where
I participated . . . and there were
no doubt others.
There are several power distribution
products offered to the OBAM aviation
community that feature Polyfuses.
One of the earliest examples is the
EXPBUS
Emacs!
Greg Richter was a proponent of Polyfuses
in his designs. One proposal for light
aircraft power distribution took this
form:
Emacs!
(We had quite a discussion about both products
which have been archived on AeroElectric.com
if anyone is interested. Search on expbus
or polyfuse.
But suffice it to say that Polyfuses are not
well suited for protection of power distribution
feeders in aircraft. They are well suited to
protection of circuitry WITHIN an electro-whizzy . . .
indeed, they're sold by the millions for that
purpose. They've alos found utility on some
automotive applications . . . like providing
electrical limit stops for power windows.

close . . . the polyfuse maintains a low
resistance state BELOW some trip point
whereupon it reverts to a high resistance
state. Current flow never goes to zero and
the 'fuse' is held in the high-resistance
condition at some current value well below
hazardous.
To 'reset' a polyfuse, you have to remove
the current and allow the device to cool
whereupon the magic molecules re-arrange
to form the low-resistance matrix.

Hi All,
I am restoring and re-wiring a 1977 Pitts.=C2- The radios are a King KY97
a and a King 76c.=C2- Both have wiring going into a rack and some version
of molex pins in a plastic holder at the rear.=C2- When wiring my RV8, I
was using Garmin radios that all use more standard Sub-d pins and sockets.
I want to replace some wires and add a couple of circuits.=C2- I am reall
y unclear about how to remove and replace these pins and where I buy replac
ement pins.=C2-=C2-
I also want to put new RG400 for the wires to the antennae.=C2- There is
a right angle connector, but I am really unsure if I can remove the current
antenna wiring and replace them.=C2- Anyone with experience dealing with
these connectors?
Regards,
Michael WynnPitts S1-SRV 8Livermore, CA
