With the vigorous development of new energy industries, battery systems are concerned as core components of the new energy industries, and the performance requirements of people on the battery systems are higher and higher. However, the battery system generates a large amount of heat during charge and discharge, and excessively high temperature affects battery performance. Therefore, the design of the heat dissipation system is critical to the battery system.
Common heat dissipation methods include air cooling, liquid cooling, phase change materials, heat pipes, and the like, wherein the liquid cooling technology has the characteristics of mature application, good cooling effect, and the like, and is widely used in heat dissipation design of battery systems. In the prior art, when a battery system is radiated by adopting a liquid cooling technology, the system level radiation is mainly adopted, namely, a whole liquid cooling plate is arranged at the bottom of a box body of the battery system; module level heat dissipation, namely the liquid cooling plate is arranged in a module shell (comprising a lower shell and a side plate) and the like. Because traditional liquid cooling structural design is comparatively simple, arrange the monoblock liquid cooling board in battery system bottom or a face of module in general, it only dispels the heat to a face, and the heat dissipation area is too single. Meanwhile, as heat conduction needs to pass through a plurality of surfaces, the heat transfer efficiency is inevitably reduced, so that the heat dissipation effect of the whole battery system is poor and the internal temperature difference is large.
The inventor finds that, in the related art, because the liquid cooling structure is simple, the liquid cooling structure is often only a single plate, the heat dissipation surface is single, the heat dissipation in multiple directions of the battery module cannot be satisfied, and the problems of small effective heat dissipation area, low heat dissipation efficiency, large temperature difference at different positions and the like of the battery module are caused, and the service life of the battery system is seriously influenced by the problems.
In view of this, in the disclosed embodiments, a battery case and a battery module including the same are provided.
In a first aspect, fig. 1 is an exploded view of a battery case according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 1, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a battery case including a flow channel plate 10, a plurality of liquid cooling plates 20, a fixing plate 30, and a plurality of partition plates 40. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the accommodating portion 60 is provided inside the partition plate 40 corresponding to the liquid cooling plate 20, and the liquid cooling plate 20 can be inserted into the accommodating portion 60, and the liquid cooling plate 20 is inserted into the accommodating portion 60 corresponding to the partition plate 40, so that the effective heat dissipation area of the liquid cooling plate 20 and the electric core set in the accommodating space defined by the adjacent partition plate 40 can be increased, thereby reducing the temperature difference inside the battery module when the liquid cooling circulation is performed inside the battery module, and improving the space utilization rate and the integration of the battery module.

The first flow channel and the second flow channel are both used as flow channels of cooling liquid; the first openings 11 and the second openings 12 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence manner to be connected with the liquid cooling plate 20 to form a complete loop; in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the spacing lengths between the plurality of first openings 11 and the spacing lengths between the plurality of second openings 12 are not limited, and the spacing lengths may be equal or different, and are related to the sizes of the battery cells to be mounted;
for convenience of description and understanding, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first port 13 of the first flow passage is taken as an inlet port of the cooling liquid, and the second port 14 of the second flow passage is taken as an outlet port of the cooling liquid; of course, it is understood that the present disclosure is not limited to the locations of the inlet and outlet ports for the cooling fluid, such as: the first port 13 of the second flow passage may be used as a liquid inlet port of the cooling liquid, and the second port 14 of the first flow passage may be used as a liquid outlet port of the cooling liquid.
The liquid cooling plates 20 are arranged side by side along the length direction of the flow channel plate 10, and each liquid cooling plate 20 has a third flow channel (not shown in the figure), and a liquid inlet 51 and a liquid outlet 52 of the third flow channel are respectively communicated with a group of correspondingly arranged first openings 11 and second openings 12. The arrangement is such that the third flow channel forms a passageway with the first and second flow channels;
as shown in fig. 1, the battery case provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes six liquid-cooled plates 20 arranged side by side along the length direction of the flow channel plate 10, and the following description will be given by taking as an example that the cooling liquid flows through only the first liquid-cooled plate 20 of the six liquid-cooled plates 20 arranged side by side along the length direction of the flow channel plate 10:

The number of the liquid cooling plate 20 and the partition plate 40 in the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited, and depends on the number of the electric core groups, for example: as shown in fig. 1, the liquid cooling plates 20 and the partition plates 40 are six, and the adjacent partition plates 40 define five accommodating spaces in which five electric core sets can be placed.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, through inserting liquid cooling plate 20 into accommodating portion 60 corresponding to partition plate 40 that sets up, make partition plate 40 except having the function of preventing short circuit from taking place between the electric core group of adjacent setting, can also make the effective heat radiating area increase of liquid cooling plate 20 and electric core group contact, make liquid cooling plate 20 arrange the position even and deep, thereby when liquid cooling circulation is carried out in battery module inside, reduce the inside temperature difference of battery module, promote battery module space utilization and integrated nature.
In some examples, the coolant may be a glycol-based solution, but the kind of the coolant is not limited in the disclosed embodiment.
In some examples, the receiving portion 60 of the partition 40 may be formed by an aluminum extrusion process, so that the partition 40 has good quality and high mechanical properties, and the partition 40 is not easily deformed and damaged when the liquid cooling plate 20 is inserted into the receiving portion 60 of the partition 40; meanwhile, the process flow of the separator 40 formed in this way is simple, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, only the liquid inlet assembly 70 is in communication with the first port 13 of the first flow passage, and the liquid outlet assembly 80 is in communication with the second port 14 of the second flow passage, but it should be understood that this is only one connection manner, for example: the inlet assembly 70 may be in communication with the first port 13 of the second flow path and the outlet assembly 80 may be in communication with the second port 14 of the first flow path. The connection manner is only required to enable the cooling liquid to flow into the first flow channel/the second flow channel from the liquid inlet assembly 70 and finally flow out from the liquid outlet assembly 80 through liquid cooling circulation, and the disclosure does not limit this.
As shown in fig. 1, a battery case provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure includes six liquid-cooled plates 20 arranged side by side along a length direction of a flow channel plate 10, and is described below by taking as an example that an inlet liquid assembly 70 is communicated with a first port 13 of a first flow channel, an outlet liquid assembly 80 is communicated with a second port 14 of a second flow channel, and cooling liquid flows through only a first liquid-cooled plate 20 of the six liquid-cooled plates 20 arranged side by side along the length direction of the flow channel plate 10:
