Manufacturer independent Battery Sizing according to IEEE Short description and important features

abacusIEEE: History abacusIEEE has several ancestors, stemming from the late 1990 years These versions share several characteristic properties Samba, Blanca and Ibis used by many battery customers worldwide Strict IEEE 485 Calculation (Lead-acid) One Battery Manufacturer only Strict IEEE 1155 Calculation (NiCd) Samba Curves 1997 Blanca IEEE Sizing 1998 Ibis IEEE Sizing 2002 Electrically Smallest Solution only Limited Export and Interoperability Users known to us include BENNING (Germany), E-ON (Germany), GUTOR (Switzerland)

abacusIEEE: Evolution abacusIEEE has evolved to a techno and commercial tool during the last decade There are several editions, both manufacturer dependent and independent abacusIEEE implements many extensions and has many new features Calculation Extensions to IEEE 485 and 1115 Unlimited number of Manufacturers Output Documents both technical and commercial FAAM Edition 2010 HBL Edition 2011 BENNING Edition 2008 Output Documents in arbitrary languages All possibly usable Batteries calculated PANASONIC Edition 2012 GAZ Edition 2015 FIAMM Edition 2011 Compare Results for different Manufacturers AEG Edition 2018 Output Documents exportable as HTML, PDF, DOC, E-Mail Link to Rack and Cabinet sizing software New Users (partly early test stage) include AMETEK, NORTHSTAR, VERTIV, YUASA

abacusIEEE: Editions abacusIEEE is available in two main editions Single Edition is for Battery Manufacturers and their Clients Premium Edition is for OEMs and Battery Traders Files and Exports interchangeable One Battery Manufacturer only Unlimited number of Manufacturers abacusIEEE Single Edition est. 1998/2010 abacusIEEE Premium Edition est. 2008/2014 Usually Open Redistribute License Usually Open Company License Find all Results for Distribute Manufacturer Compare Results for different Manufacturers Cheap Upgrade from Single to Premium is possible

abacusIEEE: Distributions abacusIEEE is available in two main distributions abacus4b is for bundling in big companies with very many users and needs installation abacus4u is for you in a smaller company with fewer users and needs no installation Files and Exports interchangeable Installed on every User‘s Computer Running on the PiSoftware Server abacus4b Setup Edition est. 2014 abacus4u Online Edition est. 2008/2014 Company-wide License usually Cheap individual Subscription model Updates for Software and Databases needed Software and Databases always up-to-date abacus4b Single Edition can be individually updated to abacus4u Premium Edition

abacusIEEE: User Interface design Language selection Ribbons instead of Menus Database tools Presentation of results very variable Multiple Documents simultaneously Font, font size and font style

abacusIEEE: Sizing Wizard, Battery Permanent instruction Select database (e.g. manufacturer) Clear orientation Select one or more battery types Filter for Battery type Electrode type Life time Outlet Application Additional settings

abacusIEEE: Sizing Wizard, Cells IEEE-Mode: ONE number of cells Minimum system voltage leads to Final voltage per cell Maximum system voltage leads to IEEE-ideal number of cells

abacusIEEE: Sizing Wizard, Cells Cell-Mode: Cells range given Minimum system voltage or Final voltage per cell given Number of cells variegated automatically Final voltage per cell or minimum system voltage will be calculated

abacusIEEE: Sizing Wizard, Cells Voltage-Mode: Voltages given Minimum system voltage or Final voltage per cell given Number of cells variegated. Final voltage per cell or minimum system voltage will be calculated Maximum system voltage and minimum number of cells given

abacusIEEE: Sizing Wizard, Load Power loads with KtP und RtP IEEE Load types Input with power factor, efficicieny and apparent power IEEE Random Load Comfortable Load input in table Load profile easily editable

abacusIEEE: Sizing Wizard, Custom Ambient temperatures Additional parameters: Design and Aging Custom sizing: Range of Parallel strings Custom sizing: State of Charge and Tolerance Mix blocks with various cell numbers

abacusIEEE: Sizing Wizard, Project Project data Additional data

abacusIEEE: IEEE Worksheet (HTML) Project data Header Load profile Normed calculation Random Load Recommended Battery

abacusIEEE: Report (HTML) Header Graphical load profile Recommended Battery Battery picture Additional data

abacusIEEE: Calculation control Progress indicator Remaining time Progress Calculations Failures, i.e. unsuitable batteries Success, i.e. usable batteries Cancel button Configurable summary

abacusIEEE: Result list Columns, hideable Sorting, e.g. Price or Workload Results freely groupable Synchronizing with CellView Sorting within groups Multiple grouping Selection of preferred result

abacusIEEE: BatteryExplorer (CellView) Additional freely configurable View of all Cellytypes for all manufacturers/databases Synchronizing with ResultList Sortable, groupable, exportable

abacusIEEE: Exporting ABACUS result as HTML, PDF and MS Word File Result Data for own further processing Grouped and sorted result list for further work, e.g. in calculation worksheet Grouped and sorted CellView list for further analysis, e.g. in calculation worksheet Export to custom database Launch Rack & Cabinet sizing software

abacusIEEE: Filtering Top Filter to hide uninteresting results Show all suitable Batteries and include their commercial data Show all suitable Batteries but hide their commercial data Show best Ten, best 100 or All results Show smallest suitable Battery for every Plate type and include Price Show smallest suitable Battery for every Plate type and hide Price Show only cheapest suitable Battery for every Plate type Show smallest suitable Battery for every Plate type and include all bigger Batteries which are not more expensive…

abacusIEEE: Quick Sizing Battery filter System voltages ONE input dialogue for all typical input parameters Load Type and Calculation mode Preselection of manufacturers and battery types Load profile
