Effective Battery Design and Integration of Cylindrical Cells for High Power Applications

To fulfill the far-reaching requirements of an effective battery design for high power applications, every single component, including their interactions with the battery module, have to be optimized. Without making compromises on battery safety, designing a compact battery module for Lithium-Ion cells is the main development target. To address customer demands and enable fast adoption of the technology in the markets, tough cost targets have to be met. Even though no design aspect can be ignored, a sufficient battery thermal management system (BTMS) is key to increase safety, fast charging capability and lifetime. Kreisel Electric’s battery design based on cylindrical cells and immersion cooling, answers all these questions and proposes new solutions on the design and material side.
