Abstract

The bottleneck of electric road vehicles lies in the low energy density, high costs, and limited lifetime of the battery cells contained in a high-voltage battery pack. As the battery pack is a complex system that consists of various components, an efficient design is crucial for the success of electric vehicles. To ensure the safe and reliable operation of the energy storage system, the single components such as the housing, the battery modules, the cooling system, as well as a battery management system have to fulfill challenging requirements. The main target of the battery pack design is to reduce the costs of the individual components and increase the energy density on a system level without affecting the safety and lifetime.
