The external environment (which controls the temperature, voltage, and electrochemical reactions) is the leading cause of internal disturbances in batteries . Thus, the environment in which the battery operates also plays a significant role in battery safety.
Battery power has been around for a long time. The risks inherent in the production, storage, use and disposal of batteries are not new. However, the way we use batteries is rapidly evolving, which brings these risks into sharp focus.
The inconsistency of the initial conditions and their working conditions of various single cell, the inconsistency of the battery pack would aggravate, resulting shortened service life, accelerated the degradation of capacity and power performance, etc. , , ; sometimes even leading serious thermal runaway accidents.
To reduce the safety risk associated with large battery systems, it is imperative to consider and test the safety at all levels, from the cell level through module and battery level and all the way to the system level, to ensure that all the safety controls of the system work as expected.
Voltage and temperature are the two factors controlling the battery reactions. Safety accidents are accompanied by continuous heat and gas generation, which causes battery rupture and ignition of the combustible materials , , .
An overview of battery safety issues. Battery accidents, disasters, defects, and poor control systems (a) lead to mechanical, thermal abuse and/or electrical abuse (b, c), which can trigger side reactions in battery materials (d).
