Abstract

To maintain the ideal battery temperature, the electric car battery cooling system is very important. Battery life will decrease if the battery is often operated at high temperatures. The battery cooling system in electric cars must be made to keep the battery from overheating. Battery performance and life can be improved by keeping it at an ideal temperature, therefore the battery cooling system plays an important role in the continuity and life of electric vehicles. Previous research has attempted to develop an electric vehicle battery cooling system with passive cooling using PCM. The results of using Phase Change Material (PCM) as a cooling medium for electric vehicle batteries can slow down the rate of increase in battery temperature, and with this method, the battery working temperature has not reached below 40℃. In this study, a hybrid cooling system for electric vehicle batteries was developed. The hybrid cooling system in question combines passive cooling in the form of PCM with active cooling in the form of liquid fluid circulation in the PCM. This study was designed using an experimental method, where a battery simulation will be made with a generation temperature reaching 35-65℃. The battery simulation will be covered with a container made of PCM material in the form of paraffin and TiO₂, then liquid fluid will flow inside the PCM to absorb the heat in the PCM due to battery performance. Several PCM concentrations will be tried to obtain an effective PCM composition. The results obtained show that the use of hybrid cooling in electric vehicle batteries has a better battery cooling effect compared to passive cooling and natural cooling and the battery temperature can be maintained below 35℃.
