Abstract

The rapid electrification of aerial transportation is driving the need for high-performance Li-ion batteries that can operate reliably under stringent thermal and safety constraints. The unique mission profile of electric Vertical Take-off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft necessitates a focused investigation into the thermal behavior and safety characteristics of these batteries. In this study, operando isothermal microcalorimetry is employed to examine the thermal evolution of Li-ion batteries under cycling conditions representative of eVTOL operations. These findings reveal that high-power discharge events—such as those during take-off and landing—shift the thermal response toward exothermic behavior, in contrast to the typically endothermic response expected under near-equilibrium cycling conditions. Additionally, the results suggest that advanced electrolyte formulations may help suppress excess heat generation, thereby improving battery safety. Notably, the calorimetric results exhibit a distinct thermal signature associated with lithium plating, offering a potential diagnostic for detecting Li plating during eVTOL operation. Overall, this study demonstrates the utility of isothermal microcalorimetry as a valuable tool for assessing thermal risks in Li-ion batteries for eVTOL applications, and highlights the importance of targeted design strategies to mitigate safety hazards during high-power demand scenarios.

eVTOL大功率锂离子电池的热动力学和镀锂检测
航空运输的快速电气化推动了对高性能锂离子电池的需求,这种电池可以在严格的热和安全限制下可靠地运行。电动垂直起降(eVTOL)飞机的独特任务要求对这些电池的热行为和安全特性进行重点研究。在本研究中,使用操作等温微量热法来研究锂离子电池在eVTOL操作的循环条件下的热演化。这些发现表明,高功率放电事件(例如在起飞和降落期间)将热响应转向放热行为,而不是在接近平衡循环条件下预期的典型吸热响应。此外,研究结果表明,先进的电解质配方可能有助于抑制多余的热量产生,从而提高电池的安全性。值得注意的是,量热结果显示出与镀锂相关的明显热特征,这为eVTOL操作过程中检测镀锂提供了潜在的诊断方法。总体而言,该研究证明了等温微热法作为评估eVTOL应用中锂离子电池热风险的有价值工具的实用性,并强调了在高功率需求场景下,有针对性的设计策略对于减轻安全隐患的重要性。
