  • Process: Define preparation (scope, tools, environment), execution (testing + data logging), and analysis (reporting).

  • Reports: Include equipment specs, test conditions, data, results, and recommendations (per GB/T 40090 requirements for traceability).

3.2 Data-Driven Testing

Build a unified data pipeline (battery temp, voltage, SOC, PCS efficiency, THD, etc.). Use AI (LSTM, random forests) and digital twins:

  • Example: CATL&rsquo;s AI predicts SOC errors <1% and SOH decay with >95% accuracy, issuing 7-day advance thermal runaway alerts.
