A MANUFACTURER'S GUIDE TO EV THERMAL MANAGEMENT & SENSOR TECHNOLOGY

What's one of an electric vehicle's worst enemies?

Unregulated internal temperatures. And yes, that includes those considered cold.

Take a deep dive into the world of EV thermal management and the necessary sensors for keeping temperatures in check. Our Manufacturer's Guide to EV Thermal Management & Sensors Technology takes a deep dive into:

EV design considerations for thermal management
Sensor integration
Thermal runaway prevention
& Much more

Thermal runaway is one of the most damaging EV battery thermal events. As the transportation and industrial markets embrace the use of lithium-ion battery power, the needs for diagnostics are evolving as well. Current Li-ion battery technology utilizes volatile electrolytes and metals that under certain extreme and rare conditions, can fail to control internal electrolytic reactions, resulting in the cell venting, and in severe cases evolving into a thermal runaway at temperatures that can result in a cascade failure of the pack in a deflagration event.
