“…It is found that compared to natural air cooling, the hybrid BTMS reduces maximum temperature by 32.6%. Alihosseini et al [129] presented a BTMS where a water channel flows through the condenser section of the heat pipe, while the evaporation section is placed inside an aluminum plate between two battery rows for a better temperature distribution, as shown in Figure 15a. The presented system is able to maintain a constant surface temperature after three cycles, at the cost of 10% extra weight, compared to the situation without heat pipes.…”

In the current context of transition from the powertrains of cars equipped with internal combustion engines to powertrains based on electricity, there is a need to intensify studies and research related to the command-and-control systems of electric vehicles. One of the important systems in the construction of an electric vehicle is the thermal management system of the battery with the role of optimizing the operation of the battery in terms of performance and life. The article aims to critically analyze the studies and research conducted so far related to the type, design and operating principles of battery thermal management systems (BTMSs) used in the construction of various shaped Li-ion batteries, with focus on cooling technologies. The advantages and disadvantages of the individual components, as well as of the proposed BTM solutions, are extensively investigated, with regard also to the adaptability of these systems to the different Li-ion battery shapes. The information thus synthesized provides the necessary and important information and proposes future directions in research to those interested in this topic to be used to increase the efficiency of the thermal management systems of the battery (and with it the global efficiency of the electric vehicle).

The increase of electric vehicles (EVs), environmental concerns, energy preservation, battery selection, and characteristics have demonstrated the headway of EV development. It is known that the battery units require special considerations because of their nature of temperature sensitivity, aging effects, degradation, cost, and sustainability. Hence, EV advancement is currently concerned where batteries are the energy accumulating infers for EVs. This paper discusses recent trends and developments in battery deployment for EVs. Systematic reviews on explicit energy, state-of-charge, thermal efficiency, energy productivity, life cycle, battery size, market revenue, security, and commerciality are provided. The review includes battery-based energy storage advances and their development, characterizations, qualities of power transformation, and evaluation measures with advantages and burdens for EV applications. This study offers a guide for better battery selection based on exceptional performance proposed for traction applications (e.g., BEVs and HEVs), considering EV’s advancement subjected to sustainability issues, such as resource depletion and the release in the environment of ozone and carbon-damaging substances. This study also provides a case study on an aging assessment for the different types of batteries investigated. The case study targeted lithium-ion battery cells and how aging analysis can be influenced by factors such as ambient temperature, cell temperature, and charging and discharging currents. These parameters showed considerable impacts on life cycle numbers, as a capacity fading of 18.42%, between 25–65 °C was observed. Finally, future trends and demand of the lithium-ion batteries market could increase by 11% and 65%, between 2020–2025, for light-duty and heavy-duty EVs.

Purpose This study aims to capture the heat transfer and entropy generation characteristics of temperature-dependent nano-encapsulated phase change material (NEPCM) slurry in a hybrid wavy microchannel. In addition, the effect of substrate material combined with NEPCM slurry on conjugate heat transfer condition is captured for different microchannel heat sinks. Design/methodology/approach A novel “hybrid wavy microchannel” is proposed to enhance the overall heat transfer and reduce the pressure drop by combining wavy and raccoon geometry. NEPCM–water slurry is implied in the hybrid wavy, conventional wavy and raccoon microchannel. A user-defined function (UDF) is used to observe the effect of phase-change of paraffin material in thermophysical properties of NEPCM–water nanofluid. All three (hybrid, wavy, raccoon) microchannels are engraved on a rectangular substrate of 1.8 mm width (ωs) and 30 mm length (L), respectively. For hybrid, wavy and raccoon microchannel, waviness (γ) of 0.067 is selected for the investigation. Findings The result shows that NEPCM particle presence reduces the fluid domain temperature. The thermal performance of proposed Heat sink 2 is found better than the Heat sink 1. The effect of the geometrical modification, wall thermal conductivity, different volumetric concentrations of nanoparticles (ϕ ∼ 1 – 5%) and Reynolds number (Re ∼ 100 – 500) on thermodynamic irreversibility is also observed. Additionally, the effect of thermal and frictional entropy generation is reduced with a combination of NEPCM slurry and higher conductive material for all heat sinks. Practical implications A combination of NEPCM slurry with laminar flow microchannel cooling system emerged as a better alternative over other cooling techniques for higher power density devices such as microprocessors, electronic radar systems, aerospace applications, semiconductors, power electronics in modern electronic vehicles, high power lasers, etc. Originality/value The phase-change process of the NEPCM slurry is tracked under conjugate heat transfer in a hybrid wavy microchannel. Furthermore, the phase-change process of NEPCM slurry is captured with different heat sink materials (SS316, silicon and copper) under conjugate heat transfer situation for different heat sinks and concentrations (ϕ ∼ 1–5) of NEPCM.
