Material Detail

An interactive higher-education engineering simulation module for sizing residential Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and blackout emergency backup banks. Grounded in IEEE 485 stationary battery sizing methods, NFPA 70 / National Electrical Code (NEC) Article 702 optional standby systems, and U.S. EIA residential consumption baselines. Allows undergraduate engineering students and clean energy planners to model 24-hour critical household load schedules, dynamic Depth of Discharge (DoD 80%–90% LiFePO4 vs 50% Lead-Acid), inverter DC-to-AC conversion efficiencies, and inductive motor locked-rotor amp (LRA) inrush surges.
