      Sandy called structural batt pack a "brick" since revealed.
      I'm guessing it's structurally overkill based on what we see here, Elon said it was a C- iteration on an A fundamental design, bet they'll lighten it over couple yrs.

Longer range models are likely to continue using that chemistry, and the semi cannot use it due to weight restrictions.

    Do you think this pack design will be kept? What surprised me was to see the pack had the traditional side cooling line. After battery day, I feel consensus was for the 4680 cells to be cooled via the bottom, as that apparently is the more efficient way?
    What about weight of the battery pack? When unbolted what did the pack weigh in at? And how is that compared to other Tesla packs?

      @areitu ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If it's any indication, the Made In Texas Model Y weighs about 20 pounds lighter than the Made In Fremont models. The weight savings likely come from a combination of battery design changes and the gigacasting. My guess as to why Tesla designed the battery pack this way, is that it makes them quicker to assemble

    The bottom sheet metal is probably just as structural as the top sheet, but does not need to be glued because it has only stretching load. It has no reason to buckle.

    • @gehtdichnixan4704
      @gehtdichnixan4704 ปีที่แล้ว

      The pack's strength would greatly increase if the bottom was glued, too (sandwich structure). But as you say, it can't buckle, and also they need a side to vent the batteries. It makes sense to choose the bottom for this purpose. At this point, the lower sheet metal cover carries some load through the sides of the pack and is protective against rare impacts from below. The top carries much more loads from the seats and the passengers. Good design.

    • @vsiegel
      @vsiegel ปีที่แล้ว

      @@gehtdichnixan4704 I think it would not be stronger if the bottom part would be glues in this application.
      A sandwich structure is stiff against bending in both directions, but here we need only one direction because we know that our load is pressing down. A sandwich has two sheets that are strong against tension and against compression, but very weak against bending. We keep them from bending by putting a spacer in between.
      If you put a load on that sandwich, pressing down in the centre, it creates compression on the upper side and tension on the lower side. The tension also makes the lower sheet press against the spacer. There is nothing a glue could do in this situation. It is a sandwich structure that works only in one bending direction.

    • @gehtdichnixan4704
      @gehtdichnixan4704 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@vsiegel There are minor/edge load cases where a true sandwich would be beneficial: shear and torsion. But I guess these are negligible for a car and one would just accept slightly reduced rigidity in these situations.
      As for the sandwich in general: the outer sheets are only strong under compression if supported against buckling. But a one-sided spacer/stiffener suffices to this end, so again this battery pack is well designed.

    The Mica is a mineral that has always fascinated me. It is found all over California, I used to find and make jewelry out of it. Mica long ago was used in many products, first on boilers & stoves as windows to see if Pilot Lights were fluorescing. Then the electric industry used it in tubes prior to chips being invented, then the chip industry used it as well, and now Tesla. It great to see old technologies utilized it shows me that Tesla is turning over every stone to accomplish the mission.

    Excellent show as always. Couple of questions , first what happens when few cells deteriorate or die? from the designs seems that the whole battery pack needs to replaced as one unit.

      It is way cheaper to shred the pack than to try to repair it. If repairing a cell was cheaper, they would already do it in hybrid cars and phones. But since the operator cost is so high for a repair no one things about trying to repair it. Not to talk about certification cost / schooling cost / tools cost / work hours cost since it need to be done by a specialist / part cost safety hazard regulation etc. The pack probably cost Tesla like 12k USD, so it prob will cost 15k to the end user. If you think that replacing a single cell is going to be as cheap as replacing an engine(which easily can go above 7k USD without parts, just work hours) you free to open a shop and prove it.
