“…It also indicated that the liquid medium performs an important function in the heat transfer by the comparison between MHPA‐air battery module and MHPA‐liquid battery module. Meanwhile, compared with the results previously reported, our experimental data show that the performance of our BTMS for the large‐capacity battery module with MHPA‐liquid is better.…”

Summary A proper and effective battery thermal management system (BTMS) is critical for large‐capacity pouch cells to guarantee a suitable operating temperature and temperature difference. Hence, in this paper, a micro heat pipe array (MHPA) is utilized to build the thermal management system for large‐capacity pouch cells. In order to study the property of BTMS in depth, experimental and numerical investigation are carried out by considering the C‐rate, working medium, air velocity and duty. The experimental results present that the Tmax can be maintained below 43.7°C and the ΔT is below 4.9°C at the discharge rate of 3C in the battery module with MHPA‐liquid. Moreover, the Tmax of the battery module with MHPA‐liquid falls as the air velocity increases. The simulation results show that the variation and distribution of temperature matched well with experimental results. It demonstrates that the MHPA‐based BTMS is viable and effective for large‐capacity pouch cell battery, even at high C‐rate and cycle duty.

Summary The performance of Li‐ion battery depends on the temperature. Active liquid cooling system can keep the battery temperature within an optimal range, but the system itself consumes energy. This paper reported the experimental work on the thermal performance of liquid cooling system for the battery module under different cooling schemes. It was hoped that energy consumption could be reduced as much as possible. Meanwhile, liquid cooling system could provide effective cooling for the battery module. Two identical real battery modules including 18 cylindrical cells (with and without cooling system) were manufactured for the validity of comparison. The 2 battery modules discharged at the discharge rates of 1C and 1.5C. Charge and discharge cycle test was also carried out. The results indicated that a simple hysteresis control cooling scheme could reduce the energy consumption effectively. The energy consumption was saved by 83.2% and 49% at the discharge rates of 1C and 1.5C, respectively. Meanwhile, the temperature of battery module was still kept within the optimal range. The maximum temperature appeared on different cells in the battery module during the process of charge and discharge. Thus, the temperature dynamic comparison mechanism was very necessary.

Summary The reliable protection of personal safety and vehicle service security has aroused the rising attention on battery thermal safety issues. This poses ongoing challenges for battery thermal management (BTM) to improve the safety by constantly learning and adopting advanced technologies from thermal management to thermal safety control. On the basis of electrochemical, mechanical, and thermo‐kinetic characteristics of battery behavior evolution under operational conditions of normal and abnormal, BTM with enhanced safety cannot only guarantee the battery operation performance but also improve thermo‐safety behavior with the heat transfer intensifying method. Additionally, via effective measurements to detect and warn the battery behavior evolution characteristics, the combination of emergency cooling, fire extinguishing, and thermal barrier adopted in BTM with enhanced safety can effectively and sufficiently suppress battery thermal overheating and its propagation. As concluded, the synthesized integration of basic BTM and its safety‐enhanced treatment can ensure the optimal working temperature range and prevent thermal overheating from propagation. Thus, the BTM system with enhanced safety has been a promising research priority. This article provides a comprehensive review on BTM with enhanced safety aiming to promote the battery application with high energy density, security, and cyclic stability served for electrification and intelligentization of automobiles. In addition, the summary of relevant research status and key technology is dedicated to improving BTM thermo‐safe design innovation and collaborative optimization, to fit with the sustainable development needs of the long‐term mechanism of energy conservation and green‐energy vehicles marketization.
