Thermal Runaway of Energy Storage Battery
1.Possible causes of thermal runaway Energy storage batteries generally experience thermal runaway under abuse conditions, and common abuse conditions are divided into three categories: mechanical abuse, electrical abuse, and thermal abuse. The most common occurrence of thermal runaway due to electrical abuse. In abusive working conditions, lithium-ion batteries not only release reaction heat, ohmic heat, and polarization heat, but also include heat released by internal short circuits and heat released by reactions. The heat released by internal short circuits and side reactions (including SEI membrane decomposition, positive and negative electrode electrolyte reaction, membrane dissolution, electrolyte decomposition) is much greater than the heat generated under normal operating conditions, which can lead to a rapid increase in battery temperature and easily lead to uncontrolled heating (1) Mechanical abuse The main characteristic of mechanical abuse is the relative...
