Review Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13A Review on Battery Thermal Management Strategies in Lithium-Ion and Post-Lithium Batteries for Electric Vehicles(Yıldız Technical University, 2023) Güngör, Şahin; Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, ErdalElectrification on transportation and electricity generation via renewable sources play a vital role to diminish the effects of energy usage on the environment. Transition from the conven- tional fuels to renewables for transportation and electricity generation demands the storage of electricity in great capacities with desired power densities and relatively high C-rate values. Yet, thermal and electrical characteristics vary greatly depending on the chemistry and struc- ture of battery cells. At this point, lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are more suitable in most applications due to their superiorities such as long lifetime, high recyclability, and capacities. However, exothermic electrochemical reactions yield temperature to increase suddenly which affects the degradation in cells, ageing, and electrochemical reaction kinetics. Therefore, strict temperature control increases battery lifetime and eliminates undesired situations such as lay- er degradation and thermal runaway. In the literature, there are many distinct battery thermal management strategies to effectively control battery cell temperatures. These strategies vary based on the geometrical form, size, capacity, and chemistry of the battery cells. Here, we focus on proposed battery thermal management strategies and current applications in the electric vehicle (EV) industry. In this review, various battery thermal management strategies are doc- umented and compared in detail with respect to geometry, thermal uniformity, coolant type and heat transfer methodology for Li-ion and post-lithium batteries.Article Gemi Sevk Gücü ve Isı Transferinin Yapısal Gelişim Teorisi ile İlişkisi(TMMOB Gemi Mühendisleri Odası, 2022) Güneş, Ümit; Çetkin, Erdal; Şahin, BahriYapısal Gelişim Teorisi 1996 yılında literatüre kazandırılmış olup tabiattaki ve mühendislikteki tasarım prensiplerini açıklar. Teori, yeryüzündeki akış sistemlerini bütüncül bir şekilde ele alır. Akışın (hareketin) olmadığı yerde çoğu zaman canlılıktan bahsetmemiz dahi mümkün olmamaktadır. Akış sistemlerinin çözümünde anahtar davranış biçimi bu sistemlerin minimum dirençli yol ile hareketini sürdürmesidir. Belli bir zaman dilimi için minimum direnç ile hareket eden sistem zaman geçtikçe kendine yeni yollar (kanallar) bulmakta ya da bazı yolları hiç kullanmayarak yönünü değiştirmektedir. Yapısal Gelişim Teorisi ise hayati öneme sahip olan akış sistemlerinin fiziksel arka planını ortaya koymaktadır. Bu makalede özellikle mühendislik çözümlerinin başında gelen akış sistemlerinin yapısı (gemilerde kurulu ana makine gücü ve ısı transferi örnekleri özelinde) ve Yapısal Gelişim Teorisi’ne göre ilişkisi araştırılmıştır. Bunun için 1085 adet petrol tankeri için DWT ile bu tankerler için gerekli olan güç ilişkisi nonlineer regresyon ile analiz edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak gemilerdeki genel gelişimin ve ısı transferinin yapısal gelişim prensiplerine uygun şekilde gerçekleştiği gösterilmiştir.Article The Effect of Time Delay of Fluid Flow in a Vascularized Plate(MIM Research Group, 2018) Yenigün, Onur; Coşkun, Turgay; Çetkin, ErdalIn this study, we show the effect of time delay of coolant fluid flow into a vascularized plate on the peak temperature. Coolant flows along vascular channels which were embedded in a rectangular plate. Two kinds of vascular channel designs were investigated experimentally: parallel and tree-shaped. In the study, the peak temperatures were monitored and the coolant was pumped when the peak temperature reaches to 50°C, 70°C and 90°C. The performance comparison of two distinct designs is based on two criteria: the time required for the steady state condition after the coolant is pumped and the peak temperature after the steady state condition is conformed. The results show that the time required to reach steady-state condition increases as the time delay increases. The parallel and tree-shaped designs show similar performance (time required to reach steady state) with slightly improved performance in the tree-shaped design as the preset temperature for time delay increases. For instance, 4% decrease in the time required to reach steady-state with the tree-shaped design relative to the parallel design was achieved when the preset temperature for time delay is 90°C.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4The Effect of Cooling on Mechanical and Thermal Stresses in Vascular Structures(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2018) Çetkin, ErdalHere, we show how the vascular channel configuration and its shape affect the mechanical strength which is simultaneously subjected to heating and mechanical load. The material properties were defined as functions of temperature. The effect of channel cross-section on the coolant mass flow rate, peak temperature and peak stresses are documented. The results show that the resistances to flow of stresses and fluid is minimum with the circular channels while the resistance to the heat flow is the smallest with semi-circular channels. In addition, morphing the vascular design provides almost the smallest resistance to the heat flow with circular channels (0.3% difference in the peak temperature). This shows that even the convective resistances are the smallest with circular-cross section, overall thermal resistance is smaller in semi-circular design for the fixed fluid volume. The peak stress is smaller with hybrid design than the parallel designs for the entire pressure drop range. In addition, the effects of mechanical load, heating rate and reference temperature on the stress distribution are also documented. Furthermore, the thermal and mechanical stresses are also documented separately, and then compared with the coupled solution cases. The chief result of this paper is that for a coupled system minimizing only one of the resistance terms is not sufficient, all the resistances considered simultaneously in order to uncover the best performing design. In coupled solutions, we documented the simulation results with temperature dependent material properties and the resistances to the heat and fluid flow is affected by the mechanical deformations. In addition, the results show that the designs should be free to vary, the unexpected designs can be the best performing designs for the given parameters and constraints. Therefore, the design parameters based on the experience does not always yield the best performing designs as the objectives and constraints vary.
