  • Abstract:
  • The global shift toward electric mobility has positioned lithium-ion batteries as a critical component in determining the performance, safety, and reliability of electric vehicles. These batteries exhibit high sensitivity to temperature variations, which significantly influences efficiency, degradation rates, and overall lifespan. To address these thermal issues, Battery Thermal Management Systems have been introduced to maintain battery temperatures within the optimal range of 15°C to 35°C. Among available techniques, liquid cooling has demonstrated superior effectiveness due to enhanced heat transfer capabilities and uniform temperature distribution across battery modules. Advancements in BTMS design are reviewed in this study, with a focus on liquid-cooled systems and findings from recent research and experimental analyses. Various coolant types, channel geometries, and configuration approaches are examined to evaluate thermal performance and system efficiency. The results highlight the importance of effective thermoregulation in promoting battery longevity and ensuring safety while recognizing trade-offs involving complexity, cost, and performance. Optimized liquid cooling systems, particularly those integrating microchannel configurations and phase change-assisted mechanisms, are identified as promising solutions for future BTMS development in EVs.
