Li-ion batteries combine high energy materials with highly flammable electrolytes. Early and reliable fire detection is therefore a must when designing fire protection systems for Li-ion battery systems. Rapid extinguishing is also essential and can be ensured by the use of automated extinguishing systems using an appropriate agent.
With the advantages of high energy density, short response time and low economic cost, utility-scale lithium-ion battery energy storage systems are built and installed around the world. However, due to the thermal runaway characteristics of lithium-ion batteries, much more attention is attracted to the fire safety of battery energy storage systems.
High-quality fire extinguishing agents and effective fire extinguishing strategies are the main means and necessary measures to suppress disasters in the design of battery energy storage stations . Traditional fire extinguishing methods include isolation, asphyxiation, cooling, and chemical suppression .
To develop an appropriate solution for the specific application of managed stationary storage systems it was necessary to conduct a series of experiments and tests. Our work has shown that Li-ion battery energy storage systems can be a controllable application when it comes to fire protection.
Among them, the most common method in BESCs is the spraying method. There are several nozzles arranged inside the container, and the fire extinguishing agent is sprayed in an umbrella shape, covering a large area when extinguishing the battery fire. Long-term spraying has a good cooling effect .
When the high-temperature gas is emitted or burned, the tube melts and releases the fire extinguishing agent, thereby cooling the battery or extinguishing the fire in advance. In this way, a large amount of high-pressure fire extinguishing agent can be injected into the battery fire, which has a good fire extinguishing effect.
