Liquid Cooled EV Battery Module - Conjugate Heat Transfer Analysis

About this project

Inspired by this article https://insideevs.com/news/339220/tesla-model-3-battery-can-transfer-twice-the-heat-of-model-s-p100d/ this project goal is to evaluate the difference in cooling effectiveness between series and parallel cooling tube of an EV Battery Module. The cooling strategies used to maintain the battery under 40C are cooling tubes places between the rows of cells. Inside the aluminium channel extrusions flows a coolant made of water and glycol.
