In this paper, the phase change material passive thermal management system for the lithium ion battery module is established, in which the mock-up battery is used to replace the real battery for the simulation. The temperature rise characteristics of the battery and the melting process of the phase change material in the passive thermal management system are determined through the numerical simulation. The effect of the filling amount of the phase change material on battery thermal performance is also analyzed.
