I am building a 60kWh LiFePO4 battery bank to power the motor of a salt water boat. The normal discharge rate will be 0.125c and never more than 0.2c. I want to enclose the battery in a water tight and air tight polycarbonate case to prevent exposure to salt air. Do i need to worry about heat build up at this discharge rate?
I have built a small 60Ahr battery for a raft and placed it in an air tight ammo can. I have never noticed any heat build up. I'm just wondering if I can expect the same with a much larger battery.
Thanks
