“…In indirect contact systems, the liquid is not in contact with the cells but the liquid passes through a conduct, in general cold plates [158][159][160][161][162] or tubes [163]. The main advantage of indirect contact cooling is that also non-dielectric fluids can be used.…”

Vehicle electrification demands a deep analysis of the thermal problems in order to increase vehicle efficiency and battery life and performance. An efficient thermal management of an electrified vehicle has to involve every system of the vehicle. However, it is not sufficient to optimize the thermal behavior of each subsystem, but thermal management has to be considered at system level to optimize the global performance of the vehicle. The present paper provides an organic review of the current aspects of thermal management from a system engineering perspective. Starting from the definition of the requirements and targets of the thermal management system, each vehicle subsystem is analyzed and related to the whole system. In this framework, problems referring to modeling, simulation and optimization are considered and discussed. The current technological challenges and developments in thermal management are highlighted at vehicle and component levels.

“…Given the risk of increased temperature non-uniformities, especially for the batteries that are close to the outlet of channeled liquid cooling systems, the authors propose heat transfer enhancement methods for the downstream batteries or multi-passage short channels to replace the long wavy single channel. Zhou et al [87] highlighted the possibility to use half-helical duct structures as a heat exchanger around cylindrical batteries, as shown in Figure 7. Some advantages of such a system are its compact structure, the improvement of heat transfer due to the mixing of fluid particles and the large number of possibilities regarding the number and location of inlet and outlet connections.…”

“…The mathematical model developed by Zhao et al [86] for simulating the thermal behavior of cylindrical batteries cooled by wavy channels with liquid flow show that at the correct fluid inlet conditions (0.5 m/s inlet velocity and 25 • C), the channeled liquid cooling system has the capacity to maintain maximum temperature below 35 • C and maximum temperature difference below 1 • C. Given the risk of increased temperature non-uniformities, especially for the batteries that are close to the outlet of channeled liquid cooling systems, the authors propose heat transfer enhancement methods for the downstream batteries or multi-passage short channels to replace the long wavy single channel.

In the current context of transition from the powertrains of cars equipped with internal combustion engines to powertrains based on electricity, there is a need to intensify studies and research related to the command-and-control systems of electric vehicles. One of the important systems in the construction of an electric vehicle is the thermal management system of the battery with the role of optimizing the operation of the battery in terms of performance and life. The article aims to critically analyze the studies and research conducted so far related to the type, design and operating principles of battery thermal management systems (BTMSs) used in the construction of various shaped Li-ion batteries, with focus on cooling technologies. The advantages and disadvantages of the individual components, as well as of the proposed BTM solutions, are extensively investigated, with regard also to the adaptability of these systems to the different Li-ion battery shapes. The information thus synthesized provides the necessary and important information and proposes future directions in research to those interested in this topic to be used to increase the efficiency of the thermal management systems of the battery (and with it the global efficiency of the electric vehicle).

Air‐cooling‐based battery thermal management system (BTMS) is a research hotspot for electric vehicles because of lower cost and simpler design. Past research works have immensely concentrated on the enhancement of heat removal from Li‐ion battery, but the minimum consideration has been given to minimize the parasitic power. In this paper, a novel procedure is proposed to predict the operating parameters (inlet velocity, working time of fan, and range of heat generation rates) of air‐cooling design for minimizing parasitic power and ensuring the battery temperature do not exceed the upper threshold limit simultaneously. Based on findings via computational fluid dynamics analysis, an empirical model of air‐cooling BTMS is further developed using an evolutionary approach of model selection criteria approximated genetic programming (MSC‐GP). The model is then optimized to determine operating parameters of air cooling which causes minimum parasitic power while keeping the average temperature of battery cells within the limit. Further, sensitivity analysis and parameter interaction (2D and 3D) analysis is also performed to study the effect and identify the contribution of various operating parameters on parasitic power. Operating time of fan has 49% influence on final temperature while inlet velocity has 36% influence only. However parasitic power is more sensitive to inlet velocity (77%) while operating time has 23% influence only. Finally, the optimal values of operating parameters for various heat generation rate per cell (function of discharge rate) are obtained. The optimized parasitic power was observed to be nonlinearly increasing with heat generation rate. Operating time of fan has 49% influence on final temperature while inlet velocity has 36% influence only. However, parasitic power is more sensitive to inlet velocity (77%) while operating time has 23% influence only.
