Update on 787 Battery Problems
I just read the 18 March 2013 issue of Aviation Week. On pages 28-29,
there are two articles on the 787 battery investigation results and proposed fixes. What caught my eye, and apparently that of the investigators, was that there was never an all-up test of the 787 battery charging system with the actual Yuasa-made production battery. They were tested independently, but there is no record of them ever being tested together. Anyway, the fixes are basically to isolate the cells better so if one self-destructs, it cannot take the other cells with it, venting of smoke overboard, better electrical insulation all around, and a lot of black-box data recording so they can figure out root cause next time.
