In a high-temperature environment, the heat transfer performance inside the module is deteriorated, the charging efficiency and the cycle life are significantly reduced, and safety problems such as combustion or explosion can be induced.
For an energy storage power station, the number of internal batteries is huge, chain reaction of peripheral batteries is easily caused after the batteries are out of control due to heat, and a battery system is continuously cooled to effectively control fire. In order to ensure the safety of the battery system, a heat dissipation protection device needs to be arranged in the independent energy storage space to prevent the battery from causing fire due to excessive heat accumulation. The most effective fire prevention cooling mode of prior art route is immersion liquid cooling, and the coolant liquid directly carries out the heat exchange with the battery, realizes the temperature control of battery, makes the battery work at suitable temperature, prolongs the life of battery. When thermal runaway of a battery occurs, thermal spread of the runaway battery can be suppressed. However, the cooling liquid has a considerable problem of compatibility with battery parts, and the battery parts are corroded by long-term immersion, thereby damaging the structure. Meanwhile, the immersed liquid-cooled cooling liquid easily causes heat accumulation, and threatens the service life and the safety performance of the battery.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects in the prior art, the invention provides a cooling system for a battery module.
The invention also provides a method for cooling the battery module by using the cooling system.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
a battery module cooling system comprises a box body, wherein a plurality of battery modules are arranged in the box body, a siphon groove with a downward opening is formed between every two adjacent battery modules, a siphon liquid discharge pipe corresponding to the siphon groove is arranged in the siphon groove, and the siphon groove and the siphon liquid discharge pipe form a siphon structure; the height of the liquid inlet of the siphon liquid discharge pipe is consistent with that of the battery module; and the top of the box body is provided with a cooling liquid spray head, and the cooling liquid spray head is connected with a liquid inlet pipeline.
Preferably, the siphon grooves penetrate through the front wall and the rear wall of the box body to separate the adjacent battery modules; correspondingly, the siphon liquid discharge pipe penetrates through the front wall and the rear wall of the box body and is connected with the front wall and the rear wall of the box body in a sealing mode.
A method for cooling a battery module by using the cooling system comprises the following steps:
after the charging and discharging process of the battery module starts, the spray head is opened to spray and cool the battery module, sprayed cooling liquid is continuously accumulated in the box body, fully contacts with the battery module and absorbs heat generated by the module, when the liquid level of the cooling liquid reaches the height of the liquid inlet of the siphon liquid discharge pipe, siphon occurs, and at the moment, the cooling liquid which is subjected to heat exchange with the battery module is quickly discharged through the siphon liquid discharge pipe; simultaneously, new coolant liquid constantly mends through the mode of spraying to this circulation realizes the cooling to battery module.
The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows:
according to the cooling system for the battery module, on one hand, the battery module is continuously cooled in a spraying mode, so that thermal runaway is prevented; on one hand, a siphon type independent space is arranged for each module, sprayed cooling liquid is collected and immediately discharged when the cooling liquid submerges the battery modules, and the cooling liquid is prevented from being in contact with the battery modules for a long time;
the siphon principle is designed on the box body for containing the battery module, so that the cooling liquid after heat exchange can be effectively discharged out of the box body in time, the heat accumulation is avoided, the problem of compatibility between the cooling liquid and battery parts can be effectively solved, and the parts are prevented from being corroded due to long-time soaking; liquid is replenished in a spraying mode, so that the contact area between the cooling liquid and the battery module can be increased, the battery module can exchange heat more comprehensively, and the heat exchange efficiency is improved;
the design of siphon device not only plays the effect of keeping apart two modules, can also effectively prevent the long-time contact of coolant liquid and battery part.
