In the wake of increasing cases of Li-ion battery fires, we study the performance of different thermal barrier materials for preventing thermal runaway (TR) due to cell-to-cell thermal runaway propagation. In this study, firstly, we characterize the performance of the available thermal insulating materials through a blow torch test.
Hybrid and battery electric vehicles that use lithium-ion cells require that these cells are maintained at specific ambient temperatures. "Thermal runaway" occurs as a result of the rapid rise in temperature within one of the battery cells. One of the greatest challenges for battery design engineers is to manage heat.
However, the advancement of LIB technology is hindered by the phenomenon of thermal runaway (TR), which constitutes the primary failure mechanism of LIBs, potentially leading severe fires and explosions. This review provides a comprehensive understanding of the TR mechanisms in LIBs, which vary significantly depending on the battery’s materials.
In view of the limited literature on the usage of commercially available thermal barrier materials in the battery pack to prevent cell-to-cell thermal runaway propagation, we characterize the thermal performance of different materials and the usage of selected materials in a battery pack-level overheating test.
Preventing battery thermal runaway by transferring energy from cells at risk to the battery pack to mitigate the runaway potential. It detects cells at risk of thermal runaway in a battery pack and then transfers the energy from those cells to the battery pack using existing systems like coolant loops, heating elements, and charging circuits.
1. The interstitial gaps between the cells must be higher to accommodate thicker thermal barrier material to prevent TR due to cell-to-cell thermal runaway propagation. 2. The cell must be fully contained by the barrier materials from all directions, especially in the lateral or x-y directions.
