Abstract
This paper describes the basic model and simulation results of thermal battery. Voltage and thermal analysis is a critical part of thermal-battery design because of the need to maintain the inner temperature above the electrolyte melting point. Traditionally, battery design has depended on an empirical approach, in which prototype batteries are outfitted with thermocouples and the design of subsequent batteries is refined accordingly. We have developed the basic model that allows the design engineer to configure or modify a battery, quickly conduct a thermal analysis, and efficiently review the results. Based on performance tests, the thermal-battery model was established and the effect of design parameters on battery performance was analyzed.
