Full Scale Battery Fire Test Plan Systems Working Group Harry Webster, FAA November 16, 2011

Full Scale Battery Tests Purpose: To document the characteristics of large battery fires in a realistic aircraft environment. Test article: FAA Fire Safety 727 freighter Class C compartment with Halon 1301 suppression Class E main deck compartment, no suppression Fire hardened with cargo liner material Fully operational air-packs Extinguishment system: CO2 and water spray

FAA Fire Safety 727

Full Scale Battery Tests Fire load: 5000 cells in original fiberboard packing Adjacent flammable materials: 18”x18”x18” cardboard boxes with shredded paper Cell types: Lithium-ion, type 18650 Lithium metal, type 123 Mixed (AA size) Nickel Cadmium Nickel metal hydride Alkaline

Full Scale Battery Tests Test locations Forward Class C compartment Main deck Class E compartment Ignition sources Nichrome wire in adjacent box with shredded paper. Simulate fire from external source Cartridge heater replacing a single cell Simulate a cell in thermal runaway

Full Scale Battery Tests

Full Scale Battery Tests Measure: Propagation of thermal runaway within the battery shipment Spread of fire to adjacent combustibles Smoke density Smoke penetration into the cabin and cockpit Temperatures Pressure Compare: Baseline (no cells), cell chemistries, ignition sources

Full Scale Battery Tests Considerations Compartment loading Full compartment will increase smoke density Containerized or palletized cargo Aircraft emergency procedures Air-pack setting Test article limitations Temperature limits Pressure limits

Full Scale Battery Test Matrix Cargo compartment location Test 1. Baseline (no cells) Test 2. 5000 mixed NiCad, NiMH, Alkaline, Cartridge heater Test 3. 5000 mixed Adjacent fire Test 4. 5000 lithium-ion, cartridge heater Test 5. 5000 lithium-ion, adjacent fire Test 6. 5000 lithium metal, cartridge heater Test 7. 5000 lithium metal, adjacent fire

Full Scale Battery Test Matrix Main deck location Test 8. Baseline (no cells) Test 9. 5000 mixed, cartridge heater Test 10. 5000 mixed, adjacent fire Test 11. 5000 lithium-ion, cartridge heater Test 12. 5000 lithium-ion, adjacent fire Test 13. 5000 lithium metal, cartridge heater Test 14. 5000 lithium metal, adjacent fire.
