文摘针对采用单一冷却方式的锂离子电池模组LIBM(lithium-ion battery module)冷却效果不佳的问题,提出了1种相变材料PCM(phase change material)风冷耦合电池冷却系统。讨论了不同入口空气风速IAV(inlet air velocity)、不同电池间隙BG(battery gap)和不同入口空气温度IAT(inlet air temperature)对LIBM内最高温度和最大温差的影响;以IAV、BG和IAT为设计变量,以最高温度和最大温差为目标函数,通过响应面模型对设计变量与目标函数进行了数值拟合;采用非支配排序遗传算法对响应面模型进行了优化预测;利用计算流体力学仿真对优化预测结果进行了验证。结果表明,经过优化后的冷却系统能将LIBM内的最高温度降低4.68℃(13.8%),最大温差降低0.57℃(30.3%)。
