Active Battery Thermal Management within Electric and Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles

Thermal Management of Electrified Vehicles—A Review

“…In [75], an example of a mapped model of the thermal system of high voltage batteries is reported and the model is available in Matlab Simscape as built-in demo. 1D modeling of the thermal management circuits of batteries and electric motors and electronics is considered in quite a lot of papers [38,39,41,69,[76][77][78][79]. In such papers, models are usually implemented by handwritten equations or by using dedicated software for physical modeling (such as Matlab Simulink and Simscape [38,69], Amesim [39], Dymola [41], Engineering Equation Solver [76,77], Modelica [78,79]).…”

In [54,55,[80][81][82][83][84][85][86], models of the thermal management system of IC engines are proposed with particular focus on control implementation and optimization.…”

“…These models are typically 1D models developed by handwritten equations [36,37] or dedicated physical-modeling software, such as Simscape [38], Amesim [27,39], Modelica [40] and Dymola [41][42][43]. The vehicle powertrain and thermal systems are modeled and a given velocity profile, either from homologation or customized cycles, is applied.…”

Research on the heat dissipation performances of vehicle power battery pack with liquid cooling system

“…The findings revealed that improving the inlet flow could effectively decrease the maximum temperature and difference in temperature. Based on the field synergy principle, Xu [17] investigated the impact of velocity and temperature field amplitudes on the heat dissipation performances of a battery pack with and without vents.The findings suggested that sensible venting could cause flow fields both internal and external to work together to achieve the best heat dissipation effect.Yang [18] concentrated on the heat flow field of several air outlet techniques, and the results demonstrated that when the synergistic effect of the velocity field and temperature gradient field increased, the air-cooled battery pack's heat dissipation performance improved.Joshua Kurtis Carroll [19] evaluated series and parallel coolant loops by electronic valve technology to weaken the temperature difference of batteries in different modules and provided a new method for parallel coolant circuits. By adjusting and optimizing factors like coolant temperature and flow rate, Xu [20] discovered that the battery pack surface temperature and difference in temperature could be decreased.…”
