Abstract:
A method for assessing performance of a thermal management system configured for thermally managing a battery pack of an electric vehicle. The method may include determining a voltage response of the battery pack while subjected to a test load and generating a thermal assessment for the thermal management system based on the voltage response and/or resistivity values derived therefrom.
Abstract:
A battery assembly includes a plurality of stacked battery cartridges. Each battery cartridge includes a first receptacle unit, a battery cell stack, and a second receptacle unit positioned within first receptacle unit. The battery cell stack includes a first battery cell, a second battery cell, and a foam layer interposed between the first battery cell and the second battery cell. The battery cell stack is positioned within the first receptacle unit, with the second receptacle unit compressing the battery cell stack. The battery module assembly also includes a receiving assembly that holds the plurality of battery cartridges.
Abstract:
A method of assembling a battery module assembly includes a step of preparing a plurality of battery cell stacks. Each battery cell stack is constructed by positioning a pre-compressed foam unit interposed between a first battery cell and a second battery cell. Each battery cell stack is positioned in a receiving frame. After such positioning, the pre-compressed foam unit of each battery cell stack is expanded.
