Abstract

A simplified battery thermal model is firstly built in this work. And based on the model of battery pack, the finite volume method is used to simulate temperature distributions in the battery pack at different charging rates; it is found that the simulation results and experimental measurements have a good consistency. Considering concentrated heat and uneven thermal distribution in the battery pack, optimization solutions have been proposed, which are active convection cooling and improving batteries arrangement. An effective control strategy is determined according to simulation results and analysis of the temperature distribution. The strategy is verified by the experiment that the temperature of the battery pack can be controlled within a certain range in the operating conditions.
