Parameter effect quantification for a phase change material-based lithium-ion battery thermal management system

Abstract:
The influence of discharge rate, ambient temperature, and phase change material on the maximum temperature and the highest temperature difference was investigated. The maximum temperature of the battery was tested with and without phase change material under extreme discharge rates (4C and 5C) and ambient temperatures (310 K and 320 K). Results showed that a phase change material reduced the maximum temperature from 327.94 K to 306.45 K for a 14.6 Ah lithium-ion battery discharged at 5C-rate and 320 K. Quantitatively determined parameter effects revealed that the PCM parameter considerably had a remarkable influence on maximum temperature compared to discharge rate and ambient temperature. Moreover, the influence of ambient temperature on the maximum temperature was approximately 2.5 times greater than the C-rate, while the influence of ambient temperature on the highest temperature difference was approximately 50 times greater than the C-rate. The quantified parameter effects can be used to improve the phase change material-battery cooling system.

Phase Changes
A substance melts or freezes at a temperature called its melting point and boils or condenses at its boiling point. These temperatures depend on pressure. High pressure favors the denser form of the substance, so typically, high pressure...
