Thermal Management of Electrical Vehicle Battery Sytems
Why Do You Need BTMS for Electrical Vehicles? The BTMS consists of more components than just the batteries. In most EVs there is an inverter for home charging that changes AC to DC. There is also an inverter for the output to the drive motor. There are temperature controls, heater, cooling devices, and fans. All of these components are part of a BTMS. Battery thermal management systems for electrical vehicles is a new concept for automotive engineers and consumers. Little is understood about requirements for maintaining optimal temperatures for efficient charging and operation of large battery packs required for electrical...
