Research abstract
THE FEASIBILITY OF A SELAED AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE BATTERY FOR MISSILE WARHEAD APPLICATION IS INVESTIGATED. THE PROBLEM OF SELF-DISCHARGE IS APPROACHED BY STORING THE ELECTROLYTE SEPARATELY AND TRANSFERRING TO CELLS UPON ELECTRIC ACTIVATION. HIGH VOLUMETRIC POWER DENSITY IS ACHIEVED BY THIN SPIRAL-WRAP PLATES. DETAILS OF ELECTROLYTE CONFINEMENT AND TRANSFER, AND OTHER FEATURES OF CONSTRUCTION ARE PRESENTED.
