When it comes to managing the thermal regulation of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), the debate often centers around two primary cooling methods: air cooling and liquid cooling. Each method has its own strengths and weaknesses, making the choice between the two a critical decision for anyone involved in energy storage solutions.
Yu et al. developed a three-stack battery pack with the stagger-arranged Lithium-ion battery cells on each stack with two options: natural air cooling and forced air cooling as shown in Fig. 2. The experimental results showed that the active air cooling method could reduce the maximum temperature significantly. Fig. 2.
Air-cooled systems use ambient air flow - fans or natural convection - to carry heat away from the cells. They are simple and low-cost, since no coolant, plumbing or pumps are needed. Air cooling avoids leak hazards and extra weight of liquids. As a result, smaller or lower-power battery installations often rely on air-cooled designs.
Disadvantages of Air Cooling Limited Cooling Capacity: Air cooling may not be sufficient for high-capacity BESS or in environments with extreme temperatures. The efficiency of air cooling is directly affected by ambient temperature, which can limit its effectiveness.
