National Renewable Energy Lab Panel to Present at coolingZONE 2014


cooingzone 2014 is honored to have a panel of five  speakers from the national renewable energy lab and their partners.  the topic of their talk will be, "battery thermal management in vehicles".  coolingzone 2014 is being held october 20-21, 2014.  click here for the main conference page and more information on registering and the full schedule.

batteries play a key role in the electrification of transportation.  as electrochemical devices, battery performance, safety, and life depend on temperature.  at high temperatures, although performance improves, batteries degrade faster and safety becomes a concern. at low temperatures, the battery capacity and resistance increases leading to lower energy and power capabilitiestherefore, thermal management of the battery pack becomes very important to achieve the intended performance and durability.  

in order to design properly sized and cost-effective battery management (btm) systems, appropriate experimental and simulations tools need to be used.  in this track, we will provide an introduction of lithium ion technologies for electric drive vehicles and how temperature affects them.  various types of battery thermal management will be discussed.  we will also discuss the experimental tools such as calorimeter and thermal conductivity meters and simulation tools such as electrochemical-thermal models and computer aided design tools.

objectives of this track:  

  • introduce electric vehicle batteries and why their thermal management is needed for sustained performance and longevity.
  • discuss the experimental and simulation tools available to design improved thermal management systems

dr. ahmad pesaran, a pioneering expert in battery thermal management, will chair this panel. speakers in this two hour track include:

  • kandler smith, nrel, ”ev batteries & impact of temperature”

  • ahmad pesaran, nrel, “overview of battery thermal management” [track chair]

  • peter ralbovsky, netzsch instruments, “experimental tools for btm”

  • ibrahim yavuz, ansys inc., “simulation tools for btm”

  • zhongying(john) shi, general motors, “using modeling tools for design of battery thermal management systems ”
