    Abstract: The application discloses a battery pack, vehicle and control method for alleviating thermal runaway spreading of a battery pack. The battery pack includes a plurality of secondary batteries and a spray pipeline. A housing of the secondary battery includes a weakened portion, so that a heat flow resulting from thermal runaway of the secondary battery is able to break through the weakened portion to be discharged. The spray pipeline is corresponding to weakened portions of the secondary batteries and is arranged at a spacing B from the weakened portions of the secondary batteries. At least a portion of the spray pipeline corresponding to the weakened portions is a breakthrough region which is able to form an opening under an action of the heat flow. The spray medium in the spray pipeline is sprayed to a secondary battery in thermal runaway via the opening.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a spray system for a battery pack and a battery pack. The spray system includes a spray pipeline configured to circulate a spray liquid and form an opening when being heating, a liquid storage device communicating with the spray pipeline, and a driving device including a driving component and an elastic component connected to the driving component. The driving component, under an elastic force applied by the elastic component, drives the spray liquid in the liquid storage device to flow into the spray pipeline. In the present spray system, the spray liquid not only in the spray pipeline but in the liquid storage device can be discharged to spray, thereby improving the spray effect, preventing the heat flow generated when the one battery unit is thermally out of control from spreading to the adjacent battery units, and improving the safety of the battery pack.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of batteries, and provide a water cooling assembly, a battery pack, and a device in order to solve the technical problem of low cooling efficiency of a cooling assembly of a battery pack. The water cooling assembly is configured to cool a cell, and includes: a body portion having a cooling channel for receiving a coolant; a first connecting portion connected to the body portion and having a communication cavity for introducing or draining the coolant; and a second connecting portion arranged between the body portion and the first connecting portion and having an inner cavity for communicating the cooling channel with the communication cavity. An end face of the inner cavity close to the cooling channel has a cross-sectional area greater than that of an end face of the communication cavity close to the inner cavity.
