Integration issues of lithium-ion battery into electric vehicles battery pack
TL;DR: In this article, the integration of Li-ion battery into an EV battery pack is investigated from different aspects, namely different battery chemistry, cell packaging, electric connection and control, thermal management, assembly and service and maintenance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface engineering for phase change heat transfer: A review
Daniel Attinger,Christophe Frankiewicz,Amy Rachel Betz,Thomas M. Schutzius,Ranjan Ganguly,Arindam Das,Chang-Jin Kim,Constantine M. Megaridis +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors make the argument that optimum surfaces need to address the specificities of phase change heat transfer in the way that a key matches its lock, which calls for the design and fabrication of adaptive surfaces with multiscale textures and non-uniform wettability.

Phase-change materials (PCM) for automotive applications: A review
TL;DR: An extensive review of a battery thermal management systems (BTMSs) such as phase-change materials (PCMs) in the state of art is proposed, based on previous reviews to help to update the thin number of references.
