“…Some researchers investigated the efficacy of a hybrid BTM system that combines active cooling with liquid and passive cooling with pure PCM or PCM with additives. It was observed that this hybrid technique can maintain the T max limit of battery cells within 319.5 K and ΔT max within 4.8 °C at high discharge rates of 2-4 C. [36][37][38] Figure 13 shows the battery module covered with PCM material, and a serpentine channel goes through the PCM material allowing liquid to flow. The PCM directly takes heat from the battery and the liquid transported the heat from the PCM material.…”

The lithium‐ion battery (LiB) is currently an essential part of electric vehicles (EVs). The popularity of LiBs among EV manufacturers is because of their long life, fewer memory effects, high specific energy density, and lightweight. However, temperature affects the LiB life and performance to a great extent. The burden on battery thermal management (BTM) is significantly increased by the need to increase battery capacity and decrease the battery charging time. Hence, reliable and effective BTM is the need of the hour. Herein, the current status of different battery cooling techniques has been discussed along with their merits and demerits. The main objective of this paper is to inform the readers and give them a clear understanding of various cooling techniques and their current status and highlight any novel approaches being used by the researchers to improve these cooling techniques. Future needs and opportunities in this field have also been discussed.

“…Batteries are the major components of an EV. For the enhanced output of the battery module of an EV, it is of utmost importance to maintain the temperature of the battery surface and the temperature gradient between cells within an optimum range [11]. The desired working temperature range for the battery pack of an EV is considered between 15 • C and 60 • C. Additionally, the temperature difference between any two battery pack cells is not advised to be increased above 5 • C [12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

Electric vehicles (EVs) have become a viable solution to the emerging global climate crisis. Rechargeable battery packs are the basic unit of the energy storage system of these vehicles. The battery thermal management system (BTMS) is the primary control unit of the energy source of the vehicles. EV performance is governed by specific power, charging/discharging rate, specific energy, and cycle life of the battery packs. Nevertheless, these parameters are affected by temperature, making thermal management the most significant factor for the performance of a battery pack in an EV. Although the BTMS has acquired plenty of attention, research on the efficiency of the liquid cooling-based BTMS for actual drive cycles has been minimal. Liquid cooling, with appropriate configuration, can provide up to 3500 times more efficient cooling than air cooling. Direct/immersive and indirect liquid cooling are the main types of liquid cooling systems. Immersive/direct cooling utilizes the technique of direct contact between coolant and battery surface, which could provide larger heat transfer across the pack; however, parameters such as leakage, configuration, efficiency, etc., are needed to be considered. Indirect cooling techniques include cold plates, liquid jackets, discrete tubes, etc. It could result in complex configuration or thermal non-uniformity inside the pack. The paper intends to contribute to the alleviation of these gaps by studying various techniques, including different configurations, coolant flow, nanoparticles, varying discharging rates, different coolants, etc. This paper provides a comprehensive perspective of various techniques employed in liquid cooling battery packs, identifying the shortcomings in direct/immersive and indirect liquid cooling systems and discussing their mitigation strategies.

Energy and environmental concerns are becoming more significant. Electric cars are expected to be the major mode of transportation in the near future, and lithium-based rechargeable battery packs are commonly used in them. Battery packs must be examined and adjusted on a regular basis to ensure the overall safety, efficiency, and dependability of the electric vehicle system. The batteries produce an enormous amount of heat, which is not taken out of the battery pack, which might shorten its overall life. Furthermore, in some severe cases, the heated environment caused by the heat generation can rise the temperature to a dangerous level, resulting in an explosion. Lithium-ion batteries have the benefits of high specific energy, high density of energy, long endurance, and extended shelf life when compared to other batteries. However, one of the most crucial factors to be considered is the battery's temperature. An overview of passive and active battery thermal management is given in the current study, along with a detailed discussion of their benefits and drawbacks.
