Thermal modelling, simulation and investigation of cylindrical lithium‐ion batteries—A comprehensive study

The heat dissipation around battery cells should be thoroughly examined to keep the battery pack running properly. This article mainly focuses on the 3D analysis of thermal distribution in lithium‐ion battery (LIB; 14650, 18650 and 26650) with varied geometry sizes and the thermal distribution of LI...

Description
Summary:The heat dissipation around battery cells should be thoroughly examined to keep the battery pack running properly. This article mainly focuses on the 3D analysis of thermal distribution in lithium‐ion battery (LIB; 14650, 18650 and 26650) with varied geometry sizes and the thermal distribution of LIB packs (6s and 12s series) at different charge/discharge rate. It has been concluded that the capacity loss increases at higher SOC levels for the calendar aging as derived from the lumped model approach. Additionally, the rate of heat generation with the increase in battery size and its effect on the overall battery temperature has been observed. The proposed work has been simulated in COMSOL Multiphysics 5.6 for observing the temperature variations within the battery pack and the vital findings are stated from the conclusions.
