Am installing a 36V 60 amp Daly BMS 10s on a freighter tadpole trike, the maximum load will be 30 amps at between 41 and 38 volts or 1200 watts max for very short bursts only at startup and on hills.
How much temperature rise to I need to allow for the BMS, it will be fixed to the floor of the trike in a plywood sandwich that forms the floor of the trike, I would like to glue it to the plywood beside one of the 5 Nissan Leaf modules that will be the battery in the trike floor. The trike is a fair weather only fun ride, but would like to at least partially close the edges of the plywood box. I could leave the edges open, or fit a couple of small muffin fans, they would not affect range at all. In fact the range is limited by my ability to sit on the damned saddle<grin>
Feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
