Proposal for the final draft REESS pass/fail requirements under test procedures for assessing risks associated with electrolyte leakage and gas venting, for incorporation into the proposed electric vehicle safety GTR.

EVS TF5 draft text as agreed to date for a test procedure to assess the performance of the REESS in the event of thermal runaway by a single cell. The intent is to safeguard against thermal propagation that could result in a system fire or explosion.

NHTSA note proposing that the specific battery SOC measurement procedure be determined by manufacturer in accordance with the battery design.

Report of the telephone conference devoted primarily to advancing work on the motorcycle OBD GTR.

Proposed text for a sequential testing program to test the Battery Management System (BMS) response at the safety boundary limits of the REESS during operation. The test evaluates the ability of the vehicle’s BMS to safely monitor and control the REESS under external inputs such that there is no damage to the REESS and no hazardous conditions arise.

Task force chairman’s review of the current text and action items.

Tyre rolling resistance falls outside the scope of UN R0 because this attribute is used in the calculation of C02 emissions and IWVTA does not include UN R83 or UN R101.

China positions on the justification and development of thermal propagation testing.
