A liquid cold plate is a flat, channel‐equipped heat exchanger that mounts directly onto batteries or power modules, pumping coolant through internal passages to efficiently draw away heat, maintain uniform temperatures, and prevent thermal runaway in EVs, energy storage systems, and power electronics.
Cooling plates effectively manage temperature, enhancing battery system safety. By preventing overheating and thermal runaway events, cooling plates reduce the risk of battery fires or explosions, especially in high-stress environments like electric vehicles or grid storage systems. source: RSC Adv., 2017, 7, 14360-14371
