Abstract
In this study, in order to improve the quality issue and component characteristics of the battery module, which is one of the major parts of the electric vehicle. The structure is reinforced by using the composite material and the mechanism structure optimization of Hybrid concept which can overcome the disadvantages of single material was performed and the performance was compared. For this purpose, figure out the main design variables of composite materials according to Classical Laminated Plate Theory (CLPT) and the algorithm for predicting composite material properties have been studied. Based on the mechanical properties of the designed composite materials, finite element analysis (FEM) and the performance of the battery module was verified. Consequently, according to the verification result, Hybrid Battery Module reinforced with Selective Composite Patch can reduce the weight by 30% and reduce the product thickness by 32.5% compared with the existing Al battery module and proved the merit of Hybrid structure such as maintaining impact performance.
