Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Lithium-ion batteries are a promising technology for achieving the goal of reaching net zero. Some of the challenges currently associated with batteries, such as lifetime and safety, are very dependent on operating temperature. A proper pack design and thermal management system can overcome some of these barriers and ensure that batteries operate safely.

In this Special Issue, we are looking to collect contributions in the following subject areas:

  • Multi-physics modelling of batteries (including the temperature impact);
  • Impact of battery internal structure on heat generation;
  • Impact of battery ageing on heat generation;
  • Impact of battery ageing on battery safety;
  • Thermal runaway modelling of a single cell or battery pack;
  • Battery pack design for mitigating/delaying thermal propagation;
  • Methodologies for manufacturing of faulty cells to trigger thermal runaway;
  • Battery heat release rate during thermal runaway for different chemistries/capacities/form factors;
  • Novel thermal management technologies specially for fast charging/ sever climate conditions (very cold/hot);
  • Battery management system for optimal battery performance;
  • Energy harvesting from battery packs.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Batteries is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

The purpose of this study is to examine the performance of a new cooling system whose mechanism is integrated with an immersion cooling system and a heat pipe mechanism. The study comprises an experimental test and a numerical analysis using the 1-D model. In the experiment, a metal heating block that simulated the pouch-type cell was used. It was composed of multiple heaters and thermal sensors, working as a heating model of the battery while observing the thermal behavior of the cell at the same time. The temperature of the heating block was influenced by the types of working fluid and wick structure, which are the key points of this system. Their role is to promote the heat exchange process by facilitating the evaporation and condensation processes. Their performance was evaluated based on different types of shapes and materials of wicks. The simulation model was designed and its feasibility verified with the experiment results. Furthermore, different types of dielectric working fluids and variations in porosities were examined through the simulation model, which are crucial to determining the characteristics of the wick structure.

This paper reviews recent advancements in predicting the temperature of lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles. As environmental and energy concerns grow, the development of new energy vehicles, particularly electric vehicles, has become a significant trend. Lithium-ion batteries, as the core component of electric vehicles, have their performance and safety significantly impacted by temperature. This paper begins by introducing the fundamental components and operating principles of lithium-ion batteries, followed by an analysis of how temperature affects battery performance and safety. Next, the methods for measuring and predicting battery temperature are categorized and discussed, including model-based methods, data-driven methods, and hybrid approaches that combine both. Finally, the paper summarizes the application of temperature prediction in a BMS and provides an outlook on future research directions. Full article
