Experimental and simulation investigation on suppressing thermal runaway in battery pack

Abstract

Abstract In order to address the issue of suppressing thermal runaway (TR) in power battery, a thermal generation model for power batteries was established and then modified based on experimental data. On the basis of simulation calculations, a scheme was designed to suppress thermal runaway of the battery module and battery pack, and samples were produced for testing. The results of the test and simulation calculations were very consistent, confirming the accuracy of the simulation calculation model. The results of thermal runaway test also demonstrate that the measures designed to suppress thermal runaway are effective and meet the design requirements.
