Working Package 5: Validation Fire Tests

Aims:
  • Development of test concepts including the design of the fire load, the definition of installations and set-ups, specifications for ignition
  • Preparation of a measurement concept adapted to the test requirements as well as specifications for the safe conduction of the fire tests
Intended results:
  • Test concepts for conducting fire tests to validate the developed fire fighting, detection and activation systems for stationary and battery-integrated systems (for usage in WP 5.2 and 5.3)
Aims:
  • Validation of the battery-internal extinguishing system concepts
Intended results:
  • Report on the test results
    Evaluation of the performance of the tested battery-integrated extinguishing systems
    Chemical analyses of the fire residues as well as the contamination of the extinguishing media for usage in WP 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7
Aims:
  • Validation of the firefighting concepts for stationary applications
  • Generalization of the obtained results for relevant energy storage types
  • Collection of further scientific data from the fire tests for usage in further hazard prevention concepts
Intended results:
  • Analysis of the performance of extinguishing and detection systems and their interaction
  • Report on the test results
  • Chemical analyses of fire residues as well as contamination of extinguishing media for usage in WP 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7
Aims:
  • Development of simulation tools for the use in risk assessment and fire suppression planning
Intended results:
  • Report of results
  • Simulation tool (software)
