Hello, I am new here. A long time lurker and am not much of a fan of facebook groups.
I am currently building and designing a 20S7P Pack. It's using 45A Rated 2170 cells, Copper for the conductor 0.2mm in thickness. When designing this pack I designed it to have as much copper surface area as possible to handle the BMS that is 150Amps.
My question is, how does the amperage split across a pack? My current understanding is that is you had a 20S battery, with a 100 amp bms for example than each cell is only outputting 5A to achieve the 100 amp output.
How ever when I think of the voltage drop if you were to request 100 amps from a 20s1p pack it does not add up.
Series = Increased amperage same AH?
Parallel = Same amperage higher AH?
IS this the correct break down of how it works? Or would each cell need to be required to be able to output 100 amps a piece to handle this load? Thank you for any help in breaking this down and appreciate the information. I want to learn now before attempting to finish my build so I have a proper understanding.
