Master Thesis Numerical and Experimental Investigations of an Air-Cooled Battery Thermal Management System(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2021) Çetkin, Erdal; Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, Erdal; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyElectric vehicles play an integral role in eliminating pollution related to transportation, especially if electricity is generated via renewable sources. However, storing electricity onboard requires many battery cells. If the temperature of the cells is not strictly regulated, their capacity decreases in time, and they may burn or explode due to thermal runaway. Battery thermal management systems emerged for safe operations by keeping the battery cell temperatures under limit values. However, the current solutions do not yield uniform temperature distribution for all the cells in a pack. Here, we document that constant temperature distribution can be achieved with uniform coolant distribution to the channels located between batteries. To this end, we performed both numerical and experimental investigations. The design process of the developed battery pack begins with a design used in current packs. Later, how the shape of the distributor channel affects flow uniformity is documented. Then, the design complexity was increased to satisfy the flow uniformity condition, which is essential for temperature uniformity. The design was altered based on a constructal design methodology with an iterative exhaustive search approach. The uncovered constructal design yields a uniform coolant distribution with a maximum of 0.81% flow rate deviation along channels. The developed design is palpable and easy to manufacture relative to the tapered manifold designs. The results also document that the peak temperature difference between the cells decreases from a maximum of 12 K to 0.4 K. Additionally, the developed design was simulated by using Newman, Tiedeman, Gu, and Kim (NTGK) electrochemical battery model, which provides more realistic results due to its heat generation approach in a battery cell. The electrochemical model was simulated with fluid and heat flow simultaneously at the battery pack level. The accuracy of numerical studies is validated by experimental work. The results show that the peak temperature can be kept under the desired operational temperature with a minimum deviation in the temperature difference.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 33Emergence of Elevated Battery Positioning in Air Cooled Battery Packs for Temperature Uniformity in Ultra-Fast Dis/Charging Applications(Elsevier, 2022) Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, Erdal; Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, Erdal; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyPure electric vehicles (EVs) are gradually becoming major interest of research in worldwide. Battery cells in EV battery packs must be kept in between the desired operational temperature range (similar to 30 degrees C) and temperature should be homogeneous in packs to eliminate safety risks and prolong battery life. In this study, performance of a novel BTMS design was studied at various discharge conditions with fast and ultra-fast C-rate values. Cooling with natural convection exceeds desired operational temperature in the pack as well as forced air convection in Z-type manifold. Elevated battery positions yield flow resistance along the air channels in between battery cells to be uniform which yields flow rate sweeping the surface of each cell to be the same. Therefore, the maximum temperature in between cells decreases to less than 0.3K from the order of 12K. The temperature uniformity is essential for ageing and electrical resistance of cells to be homogeneous in a pack. In addition, heat transfer enhancement with various fin designs is documented as well as its effect on the temperature distribution. The accuracy of numerical studies is validated by experimental work. The results show that the peak temperature can be kept under the desired operational temperature with minimum deviation in the temperature difference for distinct operation conditions required for advanced electric vehicles (cars, airplanes, helicopters) with extreme charging and discharging capability.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) Göçmen, Sinan; Güngör, Şahin; Çetkin, Erdal; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyElectrification 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 Citation - WoS: 75Citation - Scopus: 85Thermal Management System for Air-Cooled Battery Packs With Flow-Disturbing Structures(Elsevier, 2022) Çetkin, Erdal; Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, Erdal; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyLithium-ion battery packs are preferred in electrical vehicles (EVs) due to their efficient and stable characteristics. Battery thermal management systems (BTMS) have vital importance in EVs to keep batteries in the desired temperature range to maximize performance and lifetime. BTMS with air cooling is simpler and lighter relative to competing methods; however, low thermal conductivity and heat capacity of air necessitate thermal performance and pressure drop adjustments. This work offers a novel design method for cylindrical cells by evaluating the effect of various baffles (cylindrical, triangular, diamond and winglet) on the cooling performance and pressure drop of an air-cooled battery module with 12 21700 cylindrical cells. Thermal characteristics are simulated by the electrochemical-thermal battery model, the P3D multiscale model (modelling parameters for a commercial 21700 cell are documented) in COMSOL Multiphysics 5.5 and their accuracy is validated by experiments. As a result, baffles reduce the maximum temperature and temperature difference by 5% (1.8 °C) and 40% (1.7 °C), respectively, consuming 3.5 times more power than the base design. Delta winglets offer the optimum solution, reducing the maximum temperature and temperature difference by 2% (0.6 °C) and 15% (0.7 °C), respectively, with a 44% (0.12 W) rise in parasitic power consumption.Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 26Thermal Management of Electric Vehicle Battery Cells With Homogeneous Coolant and Temperature Distribution(American Institute of Physics, 2020) Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, Erdal; Güngör, Şahin; Güngör, Şahin; Çetkin, Erdal; Göçmen, Sinan; 03.10.

Furthermore, homogenous distribution of air is one of the limiting factors of the development of metal-air batteries. This paper also documents how air can be distributed uniformly to metal-air battery cells in a battery pack.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Experimental Investigation of Air Cooling With/Out Tab Cooling in Cell and Module Levels for Thermal Uniformity in Battery Packs(ASME, 2023) Göçmen, Sinan; Çetkin, Erdal; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyCatastrophic effects of global warming and environmental pollution are becoming more evident each day, and reduction in fossil fuel consumption is an urgent need. Thus, electric vehicles powered by sustainable energy sources are becoming a major interest. However, there are some challenges such as safety, limited range, long charging times, and battery life which are inhibitory to the adaptation of them. One of the biggest reasons for these challenges is the relationship between battery degradation and temperature which can be eliminated if batteries can be kept at the optimum temperature range. Here, the effects of three distinct (natural convection, forced convection, and tab cooling) methodology were experimentally compared at both the cell and module levels (six serial 7.5 Ah Kokam pouch cells, 1P6S) for thermal management of lithium-ion cells. The experiments were conducted at a discharge rate of 3C with ambient temperatures of 24 ◦C and 29 ◦C. The cell-level test results show that the tab cooling yields 32.5% better thermal uniformity in comparison to the other techniques. Furthermore, tab cooling yields better temperature uniformity with and without air convection as the hot spots occurring near the tabs is eliminated. For the module level, the forced air convection method stands out as the best option with a 4.3% temperature deviation between cells and maximum cell temperature of 39 ◦C. Overall, the results show that a hybrid approach with tab cooling would be beneficial in terms of temperature homogeneity especially in high capacity electric vehicle battery cells.
