In the heat management structure of the new energy automobile power battery, 1) the liquid cooling plate is arranged above the battery module, and the battery core is subjected to more direct heat control in a direct cooling bus bar mode. Because the battery core electrode lug is directly connected with the inside, the heat management is more efficient. 2) When a certain electric core takes place the thermal runaway, the heat insulating board of the positive both sides of electric core can greatly slow down heat transfer to the electric core of thermal runaway adjacent position, simultaneously, the design of cavity fin makes heat accessible electric core side transmit to adjacent module with slower speed, supplementary dilution heat under the prerequisite that does not take place the thermal runaway and spread. Finally, when thermal runaway happens, the control system increases the flow rate of cooling liquid in the liquid cooling plate, the battery core lug is directly connected with the inside of the battery core, and heat can be rapidly taken away by a method of cooling the busbar above the lug. 3) The liquid cooling plate in the battery pack has the functions of heat management, thermal runaway extinguishment, cooling and drainage. Liquid cooling board has the flue that can put out a fire, takes place thermal runaway when certain electric core, and inside chemical reaction can produce a large amount of high temperature combustible gases, and electric core top relief valve is opened, and gas is released to the outside. This portion of the gas will be directed and pass through the mesh flue, which effectively suppresses open flames. High-temperature gas can be cooled down by the water-cooling board fast, and the gas density that is reduced the temperature will reduce by a wide margin to this effect that reaches reduction battery package internal pressure has more reduced the possibility that the combustible gas catches fire after contacting oxygen. 4) The battery pack shell is hollow, and a plurality of air holes communicated with the inside of the battery pack are formed in the inner side of the battery pack shell. As a post thermal runaway exhaust passage. When a certain electric core is out of control due to heat, the discharged gas enters the outside of the battery module after being extinguished and cooled by the flue in the water cooling plate, enters the hollow gas channel of the shell through the gas hole under the action of pressure, and is finally discharged to the environment directionally from the tail of the shell of the battery pack. Longer passages may further reduce the gas temperature. Further, the hollow-out structure compensates the influence of the hollow space on the strength of the shell.
When the new energy automobile power battery heat management structure is structurally arranged, a plurality of parts of the new energy automobile power battery heat management structure are uniquely improved, and main innovation points are embodied in three aspects: firstly, there is the smoke evacuation passageway that can put out a fire on the liquid cooling board. When certain electric core of battery module takes place thermal runaway, inside chemical reaction can produce a large amount of high temperature combustible gas, and electric core top relief valve is opened, and gas is released to the outside. The gas is guided directionally and discharged through the smoke exhaust channel in the liquid cooling plate, and the net structure can effectively restrain open fire, effectively control fire behavior and guarantee the safety of batteries and personnel. Simultaneously, high-temperature gas can be cooled off by the liquid cooling plate fast, and the gas density of being reduced in temperature will reduce by a wide margin to this effect that reaches reduction battery package internal pressure, the possibility of having a fire after the combustible gas contact oxygen has more been reduced. Secondly, the top of the busbar arranged on the electrode lug of the battery cell is attached with an insulating heat-conducting piece (a heat-conducting silica gel sheet can be selected for use), the liquid cooling plate is arranged on the insulating heat-conducting piece, and a heat insulation plate is arranged between the battery cell and the battery cell in the battery module. In the charging and discharging process, the redundant heat generated in the battery core is transmitted to the liquid cooling plate through the top bus bar, so that the heat management effect is achieved. Simultaneously, in case certain electric core takes place thermal runaway, because the existence of the heat insulating board between electric core and the electric core, trouble electric core heat will be with the speed transmission of extremely slow to the module in adjacent electric core, and the vast majority of energy is taken away by top liquid cold drawing. Further, separate by the cavity aluminum hull between module and the module, the heat in the trouble electricity core also can be with this slow transmission to adjacent module, and then takes away by the water-cooling board. And thirdly, the shell of the battery pack is hollow, and a plurality of air holes communicated with the inside of the battery pack are formed in the inner side of the shell. As a post thermal runaway exhaust passage. Certain electric core takes place thermal runaway, and the gas of its emission gets into battery module outside after putting out a fire, cooling through the discharge fume channel in the liquid cooling board, gets into the hollow gas passage of casing through the gas pocket under the effect of pressure, discharges to the external environment by battery package casing afterbody orientation at last. Longer passages may further reduce the gas temperature. Further, the hollow-out structure can compensate the influence of the hollow on the strength of the shell. The thermal management structure of the new energy automobile power battery is simple in structure, can effectively guarantee thermal management during normal charging and discharging of the battery, and can be used for thermal runaway emergency treatment, so that thermal management of a battery pack and thermal runaway fire extinguishing, cooling, spreading prevention and directional exhaust are taken into consideration, and the overall safety is improved.
The present invention has been described in connection with the accompanying drawings, and it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed, but is intended to cover various modifications, changes and equivalents of the embodiments of the invention, and its application to other applications without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
