When it comes to managing the thermal regulation of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), the debate often centers around two primary cooling methods: air cooling and liquid cooling. Each method has its own strengths and weaknesses, making the choice between the two a critical decision for anyone involved in energy storage solutions.
Air-cooled systems use ambient air flow – fans or natural convection – to carry heat away from the cells. They are simple and low-cost, since no coolant, plumbing or pumps are needed. Air cooling avoids leak hazards and extra weight of liquids. As a result, smaller or lower-power battery installations often rely on air-cooled designs.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are essential for storing energy and ensuring its availability when needed. However, like all electronic systems, batteries generate heat during operation, especially when discharging or charging at high rates. Effective cooling is crucial to maintain the efficiency, safety, and longevity of these systems.
Park theoretically studied an air-cooled battery system and found that the required cooling performance is achievable by employing a tapered manifold and air ventilation. Xie et al. conducted an experimental and CFD study on a Li-ion battery pack with an air cooling system.
They showed that at 1C current rate, the average temperature and temperature difference reduce around 43.7% and 65.9%, respectively, compared to the module without any cooling system. E et al. analyzed the influence of different parameters on the cooling performance of a battery thermal management system with a liquid cooling system.
In the study of Park and Jung , authors compared the air cooling and direct liquid cooling with mineral oil for thermal management of a cylindrical battery module. Their results indicated that for the heat load of 5 W / c e l l, the ratio of power consumption is PR = 9.3.
