Research on thermal runaway simulation of lithium battery energy storage system for naval platform

Objectives With the continuous advancement of high-energy weapon technology, energy storage systems are playing an increasingly important role in ensuring the stability of energy supply for naval platforms. Therefore, this paper conducts thermal runaway simulation research for lithium battery energy storage systems on naval platforms.

Methods Firstly, based on Fluent and Simulink software, simulation models of submerged and liquid cooled plate energy storage systems are constructed. Using the real working conditions of a specific vessel as an example, thermal runaway simulation experiments were carried out.

Results The results show that compared to the liquid-cooled plate method, the submerged cooling method exhibits superior performance in managing thermal runaway, better controlling temperature fluctuations, and maintaining system stability, making it more promising for naval platform applications.

Conclusions This research provides reference for the safety control technologies of energy storage systems for naval platforms.
