Journal Article
Sen, S., Mahdi, J. M., Talebizadehsardari, P., La Rocca, A., & Cairns, A. (2025). Enhanced thermal management of lithium-ion pouch cells via hybrid approach of phase change material-liquid cooling. International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 165(A), Article 108997

Effective thermal management is crucial for safe, high-performance operation of lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles (EVs). However, conventional passive or active cooling methods alone struggle to provide sufficient heat dissipation while main...
