Thermal management of lithium ion batteries
Dr Gregory Offer speaks on the thermal management of lithium ion batteries
Dr Gregory Offer presents the work of the Electrochemical Science and Engineering group on the thermal management of lithium ion batteries, including the Cell Cooling Coefficient and how to design better cells in the AABC Europe: Battery Engineering Symposium, January 2021

The Cell Cooling Coefficient for Lithium Ion Batteries
Our latest research on developing a new metric: the Cell Cooling Coefficient
The cell cooling coefficient is a metric which can aid the design of the next generation of battery packs and highlight the importance of good thermal management across the battery industry.
Selected open access publications: The surface cell cooling coefficient, The tab cell cooling coefficient and How to cool Li-ion batteries
