4 / 10

Your BSPD has been triggered although the driver did not touch the driving pedal. What could have gone wrong? (multiple choice)

5 / 10

Your head of powertrain has found a battery cell with excellent specifications and yet cheap. He decides upon a 142s2p accumulator configuration using the cells with a capacity of 5.8 Ah. The manufacturer specifies an internal impedance of 1.5 mOhm. However, after a while you notice the cells are of horrible quality and their real capacity varies significantly leading to an unbalanced accumulator.

He performed experiements to find an approximation of the cells SoC relation to their open-circuit voltage (EMF) as shown in the following figure:

Assume due to imbalance, exactly half of the accumulators cells are at 40% SoC and half at 80% SoC. What current will be drawn at the maximum allowed power usage? Give answer in Amps to nearest whole number

An air stream dot{M}_L = 5.5  kg/s, cp_L=1 kJ/(kgK) is to be heated in a plate heat exchanger from θ_L′=20∘C ′ to θ_L′′=150∘C. For this purpose, a flue gas stream dot{M}_R = 7.22, cp_R=1.1 kJ/(kgK) with a temperature of θ_R′=300∘C is available. The overall heat transfer coefficient is k=15 W/(m^2*K).
What is the required heating surface AAA if the fluid streams are arranged in counterflow?
