Thermo-hydraulic performance of Lithium Battery in extreme weather conditions

The project is part of ‘InfiniBatt’ which is a smart battery system designed and developed by Motsai. This particular task for intern students aims to investigate the thermal simulation modeling of large range temperature (-40C~50C) controlled battery systems, with an emphasis on optimizing their performance, efficiency, and safety. The study involves the development and implementation of advanced thermal models to accurately predict the thermal behavior of these systems under extreme conditions. The project will simulate and use the finite volume analysis (FVA) tools to create detailed 3D models that account for the complexities of the battery’s geometry, material properties, and thermal management components. These solutions will be crucial for the creation of future connected systems, where effective thermal management is essential to maintaining the reliability and longevity of batteries.
