What is a battery cooling plate?

The Construction of Battery Cooling Plates for Electric Vehicles. EV battery cooling plates regulate the temperature of the battery pack and some of the electronics by circulating coolant between two thin aluminum (Al) plates.

What is EV battery cooling system?

Electric vehicle drivetrains and advanced systems rely on the EV Battery Cooling System to maintain safe operating temperatures of the battery during rapid charging and lifetime operation. Without adequate EV battery thermal management system, vehicle performance is limited and runs higher safety risks. What do EV Battery Cooling Systems do?

How do EV battery cooling plates work?

EV battery cooling plates regulate the temperature of the battery pack and some of the electronics by circulating coolant between two thin aluminum (Al) plates. Coolant flow through stamped channels in the base plate requires a tight, hermetically sealed weld with the top plate to prevent fluid leaks.

What are EV battery cold plates?

Our compact aluminum EV battery cold plates minimize thermal management volume, allowing more space for denser, more powerful batteries. High efficiency liquid cold plate designs enable rapid cooling to maximize rapid charging.

What is Valeo battery cooling?

The battery cells are “bathed” in a non electrically conductive liquid, keeping the temperature balance of the pack. Valeo has teamed up with TotalEnergies to provide an optimized dielectric battery cooling solution for EVs, both performance, weight, carbon footprint and cost wise. Valeo thermal management contribute to the performance of an EV.

How does a battery cooling system work?

Traditional battery cooling takes the form of a plate, usually made of aluminum, with embedded channels for the coolant. The battery cells, which are usually surrounded by a metal sleeve, and the cooling plate are rigid. Direct contact - e.g. due to manufacturing tolerances - always results in an air gap and thus poor thermal conductivity.
