A battery cooling plate is a flat component manufactured from thermally conductive materials like aluminum or copper. Its function efficiently removes excess heat generated during the battery's fast charging and discharging processes. Two simple schemes will show what is a cold plate and the main principles of thermal management.
Cooling plates effectively manage temperature, enhancing battery system safety. By preventing overheating and thermal runaway events, cooling plates reduce the risk of battery fires or explosions, especially in high-stress environments like electric vehicles or grid storage systems.
Our production is geared to quickly manufacture high volumes of quality liquid cold plates, meeting continually increasing EV demands in the regions you need them. Replicated high volume EV battery cold plate manufacturing is available across North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe.
DL can predict the performance of new designs, suggest improvements, and generate novel design concepts, expanding innovation in thermal management systems. Manufacturing battery cooling plates requires producing components that effectively manage the temperature of battery systems.
Cooling plates play a pivotal role in ensuring the efficiency, safety, and longevity of high-power battery systems. However, the manufacturing process of these components is intricate, involving multiple advanced techniques to meet the specific requirements of different applications.
The serpentine design increases the contact area between the cooling fluid and the battery cells, promoting efficient heat transfer. The cooling plate's thermally conductive material provides heat to move away from the battery cells. When heat is generated within the battery during operation, it naturally flows towards areas of lower temperature.
