BATTERY COOLING SYSTEMS OF ELECTRIC VECHILES

To enhance electric vehicle battery performance, the Battery Thermal Management System (BTMs) plays a crucial role by regulating internal battery temperature within optimal limits. Among the key components, the cooling system is paramount in maintaining this temperature range. Various cooling techniques such as Air Cooling (AC), Liquid Cooling (LC), Refrigerant Direct Cooling (RDC), Phase Change Material (PCM) based systems, Thermoelectric Cooling (TC), Heat Pipe Cooling (HPC), and Hybrid Cooling (HC) have been employed in electric vehicles. This paper provides an exhaustive review of these cooling systems, delineating their respective merits and demerits. The findings offer valuable insights for researchers delving into electric vehicle battery cooling technology. Keywords: Electric vehicle, battery, cooling system, thermal management system.
