1. Higher Energy Density
- Ternary Lithium Battery: Energy density typically ranges from 200-300 Wh/kg, which is higher than that of lithium polymer batteries.
- Lithium Polymer Battery: Energy density usually ranges from 150-250 Wh/kg.
- Advantage: The higher energy density of ternary lithium batteries means longer endurance for the same weight or volume, which is especially important for drones with high endurance requirements.
2. Longer Cycle Life
- Ternary Lithium Battery: With proper design, cycle life can reach 1000-2000 charge-discharge cycles with minimal performance degradation.
- Lithium Polymer Battery: Typically, after 300-500 cycles, the battery capacity begins to noticeably decline.
- Advantage: The longer service life reduces the frequency of battery replacement, thus lowering long-term usage costs.
3. Improved Safety
- Ternary Lithium Battery: With advanced Battery Management Systems (BMS), the likelihood of thermal runaway is lower, especially with the latest cell designs.
- Lithium Polymer Battery: While providing good discharge performance, it is more susceptible to swelling or even fire due to mechanical damage or overcharging/overdischarging.
- Advantage: Ternary lithium batteries are better suited for drones requiring higher safety and resilience.
4. Better Temperature Adaptability
- Ternary Lithium Battery: Performs better in extreme temperatures, especially in cold environments, maintaining stable performance.
- Lithium Polymer Battery: Performance significantly drops in low temperatures, which leads to reduced flight time.
- Advantage: Ternary lithium batteries excel in extreme environments, such as in polar regions, high altitudes, or harsh weather conditions.
5. Higher Cost-Effectiveness
- Ternary Lithium Battery: As technology advances, the production cost of ternary lithium batteries is gradually decreasing, offering better cost-effectiveness.
- Lithium Polymer Battery: Although flexible in design, the production process is complex, and custom designs can be costly.
- Advantage: In large-scale production, ternary lithium batteries offer a more favorable cost-benefit ratio.
6. Potential for Weight/Volume Optimization
- Ternary Lithium Battery: The higher energy density allows for a reduction in the number of batteries needed, thereby reducing the overall weight of the device.
- Lithium Polymer Battery: While design flexibility is a strength, the volume and weight quickly increase under high energy demands.
- Advantage: Ternary lithium batteries help achieve lightweight drone designs, enhancing both endurance and flight performance.
Applicable Scenarios
Ternary lithium batteries are more suitable for the following drone tasks:
- Long flight duration: Such as surveying, inspection, or logistics delivery.
- Extreme environmental operations: Such as in cold or high-altitude regions.
- High cycle frequency: Such as in industrial or commercial drone applications.
