Abstract

This study numerically evaluates the heat transfer characteristics of a 360-Wh Li-ion battery pack. The analysis was done in ANSYS CFX using different cell arrangements, cell holders, and case materials for a personal mobility device program. A total of four cases of cell arrangements were considered, along with various materials for both the cell holder and the case, such as polypropylene, aluminum, and magnesium alloy. Out of the four cell arrangements, model 2 showed the best heat transfer performance, while aluminum showed the best heat transfer performance for the cell holder and case.

본 논문은 퍼스널 모빌리티에 사용되는 360 Wh급 리튬이온 배터리 팩의 성능 및 안정성 확보를 위하여 리튬이온 배터리 팩의 열전달 특성에 관하여 상용수치해석 프로그램인 ANSYS v17.0의 CFX를 이용하여 수치적으로 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 퍼스널 모빌리티에 사용되는 360 Wh급 리튬이온 배터리 팩의 배터리 셀 배열을 4가지 경우로 변경하고, 배터리 셀 홀더에 사용되는 재질과 배터리 팩 케이스에 사용되는 재질을 각각 Polypropylene, Aluminium, Magnesium alloy로 변경하였다. 그 결과 배터리 평균 온도는 배터리 셀 배열이 Model 2 일 때 가장 낮게 예측되었으며, 배터리 셀 홀더와 배터리 팩 케이스 재질 변경에 따른 배터리 평균 온도는 대부분의 경우 Aluminium 일 때 가장 낮게 예측되었다. 퍼스널 모빌리티에 사용되는 360 Wh급 리튬이온 배터리 팩의 열전달 성능은 배터리 셀 배열과 배터리 팩 케이스 재질에 많은 영향을 받았으며, 배터리 셀 배열 Model 2와 배터리 팩 케이스 재질이 Aluminium 일 때 가장 높았다.
