Immersion cooling is known for high efficiency and excellent temperature uniformity. To address the high energy consumption of secondary cooling loops in vehicles for cooling immersion oil, this paper proposes a method of immersion coupled cooling tubes. Battery heat is directly absorbed by the immersion liquid and rapidly dissipated via cooling water in the S-type cooling tube(SCT). This work investigated the effects of structural parameters, immersion fluid medium, and operating parameters on the cooling performance of the BTMS. The results showed that the fin height(h_(f)) has no significant effect on the cooling performance. Both Transformer Oil and HFE-7100 delivered outstanding thermal management, reaching a maximum of 36.73℃ and 41.39℃ while maintaining narrow temperature differences of only 3.70℃ and 2.09℃ apart, respectively. When the ambient temperature reached 40℃ and HFE-7100 was used as the immersion liquid, the maximum temperature difference remained consistently below 3℃. Subsequently, a sensitivity analysis was conducted on the respective influential parameters. It was found that inlet water temperature(T_(in)) and immersion fluids exert the most significant influence on the system performance. Finally, different immersion cooling schemes were compared, which demonstrated the advantages of the system proposed in this study under harsh condition, thereby supporting the application of different schemes under various scenarios. It can be directly integrated with the vehicle-mounted cooling circuit system, thereby reducing energy consumption and weight, and offering new insights for research on thermal management systems for EVs.展开更多

文摘The geological structure of coal seams in China is remarkably varied and complex,with coalbed methane reservoirs marked by significant heterogeneity and low permeability,creating substantial technical challenges for efficient extraction.This study systematically investigates the impact of liquid nitrogen immersion(LNI)on the coal’s pore structure and its mechanism of enhancing permeability with a combination of quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)analysis,nitrogen adsorption experiments,and fractal dimension calculations.The results demonstrate that LNI can damage the coal’s pore structure and promote fracture expansion through thermal stress induction and moisture phase transformation,thereby enhancing the permeability of coal seams.The T_(2)peak area in the NMR experiments on coal samples subjected to LNI treatment shows a significant increase,the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET)specific surface area decreases to 6.02 m^(2)/g,and the Barrett-Joyner-Halenda(BJH)total pore volume increases to 14.99 mm^(3)/g.Furthermore,changes in fractal dimensions(D_(1)rising from 2.804 to 2.837,and D_(2)falling from 2.757 to 2.594)indicate a notable enhancement in the complexity of the pore structure.With increasing LNI cycles,the adsorption capacity of the coal samples diminishes,suggesting a significant optimization of the pore structure.This optimization is particularly evident in the reconstruction of the micropore structure,which in turn greatly enhances the complexity and connectivity of the sample’s pore network.In summary,the study concludes that LNI technology can effectively improve the permeability of coal seams and the extraction efficiency of coalbed methane by optimizing the micropore structure and enhancing pore connectivity,which offers a potential method for enhancing the permeability of gas-bearing coal seams and facilitating the development and utilization of coalbed methane.
