AB - In today’s competitive electric vehicle (EV) market, battery thermal management system (BTMS) designs are aimed toward operating batteries at optimal temperature range during charging and discharging process and meet promised performance and lifespan with zero tolerance on safety. As batteries primary function is to provide electrical power to operate electrical motors, it should possess inbuilt functions such as heating, cooling, insulation and ventilation to survive and emerge among competitors. This literature reviews various methods of cooling battery systems and necessity of thermal management of batteries for electric vehicle. Recent publications were summarized starting with conventional air cooling, liquid cooling and hybrid cooling which includes advanced phase change materials (PCM) and heat pipes. Also, eleven review articles were classified and reviewed in respective cooling strategies. In addition, experimental and numerical studies with flow path and geometrical optimization which enhances battery performance is given priority with key performance metrics or battery state of health (SOH) parameters such as reduction of maximum temperature (Tmax) and temperature difference among individual cells (ΔT) were explained in detail. Research gaps identified have been described in detail which will be eyeopener among research community and industry. Having a primary refrigerated liquid cooling system along with nanofluid-enhanced heat pipes as secondary cooling would be the most efficient way of cooling as both cabin and battery optimal operating temperature requirements fall in same range.
