“…Compared with basic active BTMS, PCM adds extra weight to the whole structure. Considering the heavier weight and larger volume of hybrid BTMS, Ling et al [70] analyzed the influence of the composition of PCM, the set of the battery module, and the active cooling configuration on the heat-transfer capacity to minimize the mass of PCM used in BTMS. They found that the optimized design of this hybrid BTMS helps to save up to 94.1% in mass and 55.6% in volume of PCM.…”

The Li-ion battery is of paramount importance to electric vehicles (EVs). Propelled by the rapid growth of the EV industry, the performance of the battery is continuously improving. However, Li-ion batteries are susceptible to the working temperature and only obtain the optimal performance within an acceptable temperature range. Therefore, a battery thermal management system (BTMS) is required to ensure EVs’ safe operation. There are various basic methods for BTMS, including forced-air cooling, liquid cooling, phase change material (PCM), heat pipe (HP), thermoelectric cooling (TEC), etc. Every method has its unique application condition and characteristic. Furthermore, based on basic BTMS, more hybrid cooling methods adopting different basic methods are being designed to meet EVs’ requirements. In this work, the hybrid BTMS, as a more reliable and environmentally friendly method for the EVs, will be compared with basic BTMS to reveal its advantages and potential. By analyzing its cost, efficiency and other aspects, the evaluation criterion and design suggestions are put forward to guide the future development of BTMS.

“…Their results demonstrated that both the battery temperature ramp-up rate and the battery steady-state temperature were significantly reduced by the conjugated cooling, in comparison with single PCM or liquid cooling condition. Ling et al [267] investigated an optimization method, the response surface methodology (RSM) with PCM and liquid cooling integrated for LIB, which helped retain the PCM mass by up to 94.1% and the volume by up to 55.6%. Compared with the conventional LCS, the hybrid system is not only highly efficient but lightweight and flexible for the batteries with arbitrary shapes.…”

A Review on the Thermal Hazards of the Lithium-Ion Battery and the Corresponding Countermeasures

As one of the most promising new energy sources, the lithium-ion battery (LIB) and its associated safety concerns have attracted great research interest. Herein, a comprehensive review on the thermal hazards of LIBs and the corresponding countermeasures is provided. In general, the thermal hazards of the LIB can be caused or aggravated by several factors including physical, electrical and thermal factors, manufacturing defect and even battery aging. Due to the activity and combustibility of traditional battery components, they usually possess a relatively high thermal hazard and a series of side reactions between electrodes and electrolytes may occur under abusive conditions, which would further lead to the thermal failure of LIBs. Besides, the thermal hazards generally manifest as the thermal runaway behaviors such as high-temperature, ejection, combustion, explosion and toxic gases for a single battery, and it can even evolve to thermal failure propagation within a battery pack. To decrease these hazards, some countermeasures are reviewed including the application of safety devices, fire-retardant additives, battery management systems, hazard warnings and firefighting should a hazard occur.

“…It can define the influence of independent variables individually or in combination on a response or a set of responses of a process, and simultaneously optimize the levels of experimental variables to attain the optimal performance of the system. Some examples of the RSM applications of optimization of chemical or biomedical process are enzymatic processing [21,22], heat transfer with nano-fluid [23,24], micro-extraction for pre-concentration [25], ultrasonicated adsorption and extraction process [26][27][28], cooling strategy for Li-ion batteries [29] and fibre manufacturing [30][31][32][33]. RSM is used to approximate the functional relationship between the independent variables and the process response based on experimental data, and it is valuable in obtaining insight of variable contributions through the coefficients in the developed model.…”

Empirical modelling and optimization of pressure-coupled infusion gyration parameters for the nanofibre fabrication

2019

Pressure-coupled infusion gyration (PCIG) is a novel promising technique for economical and effective mass production of nanofibres with desirable geometrical characteristics. The average diameter of spun fibres significantly influences the structural, mechanical and physical properties of the produced fibre mats. Having a comprehensive understanding of the significant effects of PCIG experimental variables on the spun fibres is beneficial. In this work, response surface methodology was used to explore the interaction effects and the optimal PCIG experimental variables for achieving the desired morphological characteristics of fibres. The effect of experimental variables, namely solution concentration, infusion (flow) rate, applied pressure and rotational speed, was studied on the average fibre diameter and standard deviations. A numerical model for the interactional influences of experimental variables was developed and optimized with a nonlinear interior point method that can be used as a framework for selecting the optimal conditions to obtain poly-ethylene oxide fibres with desired morphology (targeted average diameter and narrow standard deviation). The adequacy of the models was verified by a set of validation experiments. The results proved that the predicted optimal conditions were able to achieve the average diameter that matched the pre-set desired value with less than 10% of difference.
