Optimizing of coupled phase change materials and liquid cooling thermal management for Li-ion battery pack
The rapid augment of electric vehicles (EVs) intensifies the requirements for advanced battery performance in terms of high discharge rates, long cycle life, and high energy density. To ensure the safe operation of high-rate discharge batteries, a hybrid battery thermal management system (BTMS) integrating phase-change material (PCM) and liquid cooling is proposed, which adopts multi-fin channel wrapped cells and multi-layer PCM mixing to achieve better thermal performance of the battery pack at a high discharge rate. The thermal performance of packs with air-cooled, liquid-cooled, PCM-cooled, and coupled BTMSs are evaluated and compared, and effects of liquid-cooling configurations, PCM layer thickness, coolant flow rate, and ambient temperature on thermal regulation are tested. The results demonstrate the coupled BTMS's potential to improve battery safety and performance, providing a viable solution for thermal management in EV batteries operating under high discharge rates. Furthermore, a thermal management approach with good working performance and high efficiency is identified. The coupled BTMS battery pack exhibits better performance and temperature uniformity, i.e., Tmax = 36.13 °C and ΔT = 4.04 °C, at discharge rate 5C. It provides a feasible solution for the safe operation of power battery at a high discharge rate.
