Abstract:In the fast-growing but also highly competitive market of battery-powered power tools, cell-pack-cooling systems are of high importance, as they guarantee safety and short charging times. A simulation model of an 18 V power tool battery pack was developed to be able to evaluate four different pack-cooling systems (two heat-conductive polymers, one phase change material, and non-convective air as reference) in an application scenario of practical relevance (the intensive use of a power tool followed by cooling … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
