  With the development of the automobile industry, Alternative fuel vehicle have become a force that cannot be ignored in recent years. With the increasing use of new energy vehicles, we often see news about the spontaneous combustion, explosion and other aspects of new energy vehicles.  The essence of new energy vehicle safety accidents is actually battery Thermal runaway. This paper briefly introduces the status quo of Thermal runaway, existing problems, problems to be solved, and technical measures and methods to be taken.   1 Thermal runaway Thermal runaway refers to the phenomenon of overheating, fire and explosion caused by the heat release chain reaction of the single battery, which causes the rapid change of the self temperature rise rate of the battery.   2 Existing problems With the continuous improvement of energy density of lithium-ion batteries, improving their safety is increasingly urgent for the development of electric vehicles. In practice, how to ac...

  Lithium batteries are one of the indispensable power sources in today’s aerospace industry, often serving as backup energy for various aircraft equipment startup, communication, and emergency response. They are important components of aerospace vehicles. However, in normal operation, lithium batteries are very sensitive to environmental temperature, and the impact of temperature is crucial during the battery’s cyclic use, but it is easily overlooked.   The battery capacity and charging and discharging characteristics will change with temperature, and high or low temperatures will seriously affect the performance and service life of the battery. Due to the long-term operation of aviation cobalt acid lithium batteries in unfavorable environments such as low voltage and low temperature, this will inevitably lead to a shortened cycle life of lithium batteries, which can seriously lead to battery scrapping or unpredictable losses. Therefore, it is necessary to study the temperatu...

  The power battery system is a key subsystem of electric vehicles, and its performance directly affects the power, economy, and safety of electric vehicles. Continuous charging and discharging during the use of power batteries can have an impact on the battery temperature, and high or low battery temperatures can affect the performance, lifespan, and safety of the battery system.  Therefore, the adaptability of lithium-ion batteries to temperature has become one of the key factors restricting their application in electric vehicles, and battery thermal management has become a key technology to ensure battery performance, service life, and safety.   The optimal operating temperature for power batteries is 15 ℃ C-45 ℃, and the actual operating temperature range is -30 ℃ -60 ℃. During winter operation, electric vehicles often experience a decrease in range.  The reason for this situation is that the discharge capacity of the power battery system itself in winter is lowe...

  As is well known, the safety of battery cells and battery packs during use has a significant impact on the safety of users. This project mainly studies the impact of lithium-ion cells and battery packs on users after being punctured by foreign objects. Lithium ion battery is a high-capacity rechargeable battery developed in the 1990s.  It can store more energy than nickel hydrogen battery. It has large specific energy, long cycle life, low self-discharge rate, and no memory effect. It can meet the needs of passenger vehicles with high requirements for volume, life, power, etc. It has become an ideal product for future pure electric vehicle applications. Not only in the electric vehicle industry, single or several dozens of batteries are favored by consumers, and lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in many industries.  However, regardless of the industry or user, there are high requirements for safety during use, especially for power battery systems that require ...

1  Analysis of the current application status of lithium-ion batteries The rapidly developing automobile industry has brought convenience to people, while its exhaust has become the main culprit of urban air pollution. On the other hand, as non renewable energy sources, the consumption of oil and natural gas is gradually increasing and will eventually dry up in the near future. Energy conservation and environmental protection have become very prominent social issues.   Electric vehicles (EVS) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVS) are developed to reduce the energy consumption and pollution caused by fuel vehicles. The advanced power batteries currently used in electric vehicles mainly include nickel hydrogen power batteries and lithium-ion power batteries. Lithium ion batteries have high specific energy, long lifespan, and high specific power. With the reduction of cost, they will gradually replace the current nickel hydrogen batteries as the main energy storage system for elect...

  Severe external conditions such as electricity, machinery, and heat are important factors that trigger safety issues in lithium-ion batteries, while safety issues such as ignition and explosion in lithium-ion batteries are generally attributed to thermal runaway.   For example, overcharging, internal short circuits, etc. can lead to thermal runaway and cause safety issues. When the safety limit is exceeded in the battery, thermal runaway of the battery can easily occur due to factors such as poor thermal stability of the separator and the possibility of intense oxidation reaction between the electrolyte and the positive electrode.   So the safety of lithium-ion batteries in thermal environments is an important aspect of lithium-ion battery safety research. This article will explore a new testing method for evaluating the safety of lithium-ion batteries when used under high temperature conditions.   1.Testing Methods At present, there are three main types of standar...
