How much do different temperatures affect BMS performance?

The effect of different temperatures on the performance of BMS (Battery Management System) is significant in the following aspects:

1. Battery performance and safety:

– Temperature is one of the key factors affecting battery performance. Batteries have different internal chemical reaction rates under different temperature conditions, which directly affects their discharge capacity and charge/discharge efficiency. A high temperature environment will cause the temperature of the internal components of the BMS to rise, affecting its normal operation. Low-temperature environment decreases the battery’s electric capacity because low temperature slows down the rate of the internal chemical reaction of the battery and reduces the discharge efficiency of the battery, which leads to a decrease in the battery’s capacity.

2. Battery life:

– Battery life is closely related to the temperature of the environment in which it is used. Batteries that work under high temperatures for a long time will accelerate their aging process, reduce the number of charge/discharge cycles, and shorten the service life of the battery. Comparatively speaking, in a moderate temperature range, the battery can realize a longer cycle life.

3. Battery internal resistance and output power:

– When the battery temperature is too low, the viscosity of the electrolyte increases and the ionic conduction speed decreases, leading to a rise in internal resistance and a decrease in output power. And in a high temperature environment, the side reactions inside the battery intensify, which can damage the battery structure and reduce its electrochemical performance.

4. Risk of thermal runaway:

– High-temperature environments can exacerbate the self-discharge rate of a battery, reducing its charging efficiency and life, thus affecting the performance of the entire EV system. At extreme high temperatures, battery cathode materials begin to decompose and produce oxygen, and at temperatures above 200°C, the electrolyte decomposes and produces flammable gases, which can lead to thermal runaway.

5. Battery temperature difference:

– Battery temperature difference is mainly divided into the internal temperature difference of the battery and the temperature difference between the battery cells. Internal temperature difference is generally in the low temperature heating conditions or water cooling system high temperature cooling conditions, the battery module is in the unilateral heating or unilateral cooling, due to the battery monomer itself thermal resistance is large, there will be a large internal temperature difference. The reason for the temperature difference between the cells is that the temperature difference between the cells is mainly determined by the arrangement of the battery module and the structure of the battery thermal management.

6. Battery Thermal Management System (BTMS):

– In order to ensure that the battery operates within a reasonable temperature range and to reduce the risk of battery damage or explosion due to temperature runaway, the Battery Thermal Management System (BTMS) has emerged.BTMS controls the battery temperature by regulating the flow arrangement or flow characteristics of the cooling medium to ensure that the temperature of the battery fluctuates within a reasonable range, which results in a more efficient battery and a more stable performance.

To summarize, the impact of different temperatures on the performance of BMS is comprehensive, involving the safety, performance, life and thermal management of the battery and other aspects. Therefore, the design and operation of BMS must fully consider the temperature factor to ensure the best performance and safety of the battery system.
