WEBINAR | A Cool Take on Hot EV Batteries: Navigating Thermal Propagation With CFD

Presented by: Lorenz von Roemer, R&D Engineer, Powertrain Research & Technology, IAV GmbH Kislaya Srivastava, Principal Engineer, Applications Group, Convergent Science In this webinar, Lorenz von Roemer and Kislaya Srivastava explore the extensive collaboration between IAV and Convergent Science focusing on thermal propagation prediction. Together, they are harnessing the power of validated simulation models to study thermal propagation, paving the way for the development and assessment of technologies aimed at preventing thermal propagation in electric vehicle batteries. Participants will learn and gain a deep understanding of the mechanisms of thermal runaway and propagation simulation in CONVERGE CFD software. The session introduces an integrated, widely validated simulation approach with CONVERGE, spanning from modeling the thermal runaway kinetics of different battery chemistries to the resulting 3D spatial temperature distribution and heat transfer in battery systems employing a variety of different materials. Attendees will also learn about IAV’s battery development and testing capabilities at both the cell and cell-assembly levels. Furthermore, the webinar highlights various technical strategies—such as immersion cooling, phase-change materials, and alternative battery cell gap-fillers—considered crucial for delaying or mitigating thermal propagation, thus both maximizing the safety of newly developed electrochemical energy storage systems and reducing the risk of recalls of vehicles in series production and the associated, typically huge, costs.
