The 2022 Nissan Ariya has two battery pack sizes, 63kWh (66kWh total) and 87kWh (91kWh total). The vehicle is also available in 2WD and 4WD variants. The details around the battery specifications are very scarce and hence lots of gaps we need to gradually fill. However, I think this is worth sharing for the thermal … Read more
Looking at the pouch cell design and edge cooling evolution allows us to appreciated the importance of battery cell electro-thermal behaviour. Fundamentally pouch cells are made from multiple layers of active material all applied to copper and aluminium electrodes that are sandwiched and compressed together. The copper and aluminium electrodes have very good in-plane thermal … Read more
