2.1. Experimental test The “U” air duct type experimental test setup of the air-cooled energy storage battery thermal management was built, which mainly including energy storage battery packs (dummy battery packs), DC power supply, fan, anemometer, Agilent data logger, computer and insulation air duct.
When the energy storage battery is in the limit working condition of 2C, and the maximum temperature of the BTMS under the four air duct types exceeds the safe temperature range of the battery. It is necessary to need to increase the air flow rate and decrease the temperature of air to enhance the cooling performance of the BTMS.
Experimental and simulative results showed that the system has promising application for massive energy storage. Traditional air-cooled thermal management solutions cannot meet the requirements of heat dissipation and temperature uniformity of the commercial large-capacity energy storage battery packs in a dense space.
Dongwang Zhang and Xin Zhao contributed equally to this work. Battery energy storage system occupies most of the energy storage market due to its superior overall performance and engineering maturity, but its stability and efficiency are easily affected by heat generation problems, so it is important to design a suitable thermal management system.
Yu et al. developed a three-stack battery pack with the stagger-arranged Lithium-ion battery cells on each stack with two options: natural air cooling and forced air cooling as shown in Fig. 2. The experimental results showed that the active air cooling method could reduce the maximum temperature significantly. Fig. 2.
