The battery liquid cooling heat dissipation structure uses liquid, which carries away the heat generated by the battery through circulating flow, thereby achieving heat dissipation effect (Yi et al., 2022).
Discussion: The proposed liquid cooling structure design can effectively manage and disperse the heat generated by the battery. This method provides a new idea for the optimization of the energy efficiency of the hybrid power system. This paper provides a new way for the efficient thermal management of the automotive power battery.
Bulut et al. conducted predictive research on the effect of battery liquid cooling structure on battery module temperature using an artificial neural network model. The research results indicated that the power consumption reduced by 22.4% through optimization. The relative error of the prediction results was less than 1% (Bulut et al., 2022).
In conclusion, the cooling structures proposed in this study can effectively enhance the temperature uniformity of battery module and reduce the BTMS weight ratio, and the design of cooling structure can provide a guidance for the battery thermal management system design.
To verify the effectiveness of the cooling function of the liquid cooled heat dissipation structure designed for vehicle energy storage batteries, it was applied to battery modules to analyze their heat dissipation efficiency.
Based on previous study, a novel lightweight liquid cooling structure with thin plate and slender tube for prismatic batteries was developed in current study to control the temperature of the battery module, and to reduce the weight of BTMS for prismatic battery.
