“…Thermal energy storage (TES) is an energy storage technology that absorbs the thermal energy by heating or cooling a storage medium, and this stored energy can be used later to produce a power source, or for heating or cooling in some applications [ 129 , 130 ]. TES are widely used in buildings and industrial processes.…”

This paper reviews energy storage systems, in general, and for specific applications in low-cost micro-energy harvesting (MEH) systems, low-cost microelectronic devices, and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). With the development of electronic gadgets, low-cost microelectronic devices and WSNs, the need for an efficient, light and reliable energy storage device is increased. The current energy storage systems (ESS) have the disadvantages of self-discharging, energy density, life cycles, and cost. The ambient energy resources are the best option as an energy source, but the main challenge in harvesting energy from ambient sources is the instability of the source of energy. Due to the explosion of lithium batteries in many cases, and the pros associated with them, the design of an efficient device, which is more reliable and efficient than conventional batteries, is important. This review paper focused on the issues of the reliability and performance of electrical ESS, and, especially, discussed the technical challenges and suggested solutions for ESS (batteries, supercapacitors, and for a hybrid combination of supercapacitors and batteries) in detail. Nowadays, the main market of batteries is WSNs, but in the last decade, the world’s attention has turned toward supercapacitors as a good alternative of batteries. The main advantages of supercapacitors are their light weight, volume, greater life cycle, turbo charging/discharging, high energy density and power density, low cost, easy maintenance, and no pollution. This study reviews supercapacitors as a better alternative of batteries in low-cost electronic devices, WSNs, and MEH systems.

The thermal management system has essential effects on the performance, life, and consistency of lithium-ion batteries. Compared with commonly used cooling methods, spray cooling has excellent performance and is now widely used in electronic equipment, metal processing, laser surgery, and other fields.However, there are few applications of spray cooling in the battery thermal management systems (BTMSs). With the increase of the charge and discharge speed and people's rising attention to the thermal runaway accidents of electric

“…The major problem of PCMs is their very low thermal conductivity, which limits their applications [25]. Therefore, other highly conductive materials, such as heat pipes [26], graphite [27], nanomaterials [28], nanofluids [29], copper foams [30], or aluminum foams [31], should be added to PCMs to cope with this drawback.…”

Lithium-ion capacitor technology (LiC) is well known for its higher power density compared to electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) and higher energy density compared to lithium-ion batteries (LiBs). However, the LiC technology is affected by a high heat generation problem in high-power applications when it is continuously being charged/discharged with high current rates. Such a problem is associated with safety and reliability issues that affect the lifetime of the cell. Therefore, for high-power applications, a robust thermal management system (TMS) is essential to control the temperature evolution of LiCs to ensure safe operation. In this regard, developing accurate electrical and thermal models is vital to design a proper TMS. This work presents a detailed 1D/3D electro-thermal model at module level employing MATLAB/SIMULINK® coupled to the COMSOL Multiphysics® software package. The effect of the inlet coolant flow rate, inlet coolant temperature, inlet and outlet positions, and the number of arcs are examined under the cycling profile of a continuous 150 A current rate without a rest period for 1400 s. The results prove that the optimal scenario for the LCTMS would be the inlet coolant flow rate of 500 mL/min, the inlet temperature of 30 °C, three inlets, three outlets, and three arcs in the coolant path. This scenario decreases the module’s maximum temperature (Tmax) and temperature difference by 11.5% and 79.1%, respectively. Moreover, the electro-thermal model shows ±5% and ±4% errors for the electrical and thermal models, respectively.
