“…The results reveal that when the number of cooling pipes increases from four to ten, the battery's maximum temperature drops and the temperature distribution uniformity improves, but the flow pressure loss increases by 80 %. Mo et al [24] designed a new cooling plate using topology optimization (TO) method, as shown in Figure 2. The optimized cooling plate is numerically simulated and compared with the traditional linear cooling plate.…”

Lithium-ion batteries have the advantages of high energy density, high average output voltage, long service life, and environmental protection, and are widely used in the power system of new energy vehicles. However, during the working process of the battery, the working temperature is too high or too low, which will affect the charging and discharging performance, battery capacity and battery safety. As a result, a battery thermal management system (BTMS) is essential to maintain the proper ambient temperature of the working battery. Thermal management of power batteries is a key technology to ensure maximum battery safety and efficiency. This paper discusses the significance of thermal management technology in the development of new energy vehicles, introduces the main technical means of thermal management of lithium-ion batteries for vehicle, and focuses on the current state of research on the use of various types of heat pipes in lithium-ion batteries. Finally, the use of heat pipes in the thermal control of lithium-ion batteries is promising.

“…With the prosperity of 5G, arti cial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and smart cities, along with the extensive application of big data and cloud computing, continuous miniaturization and performance improvement have led to an exponential increase in power consumption and heat generation within the system. The increasing demand for heat dissipation poses more severe challenges to the structural design ( Shape optimization (Gkaragkounis et al, 2018;Zhou & Rozvany, 2015), parameter optimization (Diligenskaya, 2018;José S. Moita et al, 2018;Michalewicz, 1996), and topology optimization(Hao Li, 2019; Meng et al, 2021;Mo et al, 2021) are commonly used optimization methods for heat sinks.…”

Efficient heat sinks are the key components of heat dissipation devices. Although topology optimization can theoretically design high-performance heat sinks, screening a design domain in an open space is still a challenge. This work studies the topology optimization of three-dimensional (3D) heat sinks for LED chips using the variable density method, without considering air convection to save computing resources. A theoretical analysis proposes that the design domain should be approximately a hemisphere. Topology optimization is performed in three shaped design domains, namely cylindrical, conical frustum, and inverted conical frustum. By 3D printing three topology-optimized heat sinks, their actual heat dissipation effects on LED chips are compared. The experiment and simulation results consistently show that the heat sink in the conical frustum design domain has the best heat dissipation effect. Equipped with such a heat sink, a 5-W LED chip is 5.1°C cooler than that with the traditional finned heat sink. Our results show that a well-selected design domain can effectively balance the heat conduction and heat exchange, eventually leading to a better heat sink.
