Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of thermal management technology, and in particular to a method for optimizing the heat dissipation channel of a battery module based on a genetic algorithm. Background Art
[0002] With the large-scale development of new energy vehicles and energy storage systems, thermal management of battery modules has become one of the key technical bottlenecks restricting their performance, safety, and lifespan. Especially under complex operating conditions such as fast charging, high-rate discharge, and operation in high-temperature environments, the heat generated by the battery accumulates rapidly. If the heat dissipation path is not designed properly, it will lead to uneven temperature distribution within the module and an increased risk of local thermal runaway, further inducing battery capacity decay, reduced system efficiency, and even thermal failure. Therefore, how to improve the overall heat dissipation capacity and heat distribution uniformity of the battery module heat dissipation channel while meeting structural constraints, manufacturing feasibility, and energy consumption control has become a major technical challenge in the current field of battery thermal management.
[0003] In the prior art, the heat dissipation structure design of battery modules mostly relies on empirical rules or parameter sweep methods, and CFD simulation is used to assist in optimizing channel size and layout. Although such methods can obtain feasible solutions within the local parameter space, due to the large number of design variables, complex heat source behavior, and strict structural constraints, traditional optimization strategies generally have the following defects. First, there is a lack of modeling and dynamic response capabilities for the time-varying characteristics of battery heat sources. Most optimization methods are based on static heat source models for channel structure design, which cannot truly reflect the heat distribution evolution of the battery under different working conditions (such as charging, discharging, and static), resulting in deviations between the optimization results and the actual thermal field and poor generalization capabilities. Second, the global search capability of the optimization algorithm is limited and it is easy to fall into local optimality. Commonly used single-objective or heuristic algorithms are difficult to fully explore the optimal solution set in high-dimensional nonlinear structural space, especially when it is necessary to take into account multiple objectives such as thermal uniformity, structural complexity, and energy loss. The optimization efficiency is low and the result stability is poor. Third, there is a lack of systematic modeling of the channel structure perturbation mechanism and population generation method. The current design process mostly uses regularized parameter perturbations or template replacements to generate structural candidates. The structural diversity is insufficient and there is a lack of adaptive control mechanisms for topological paths, flow nodes, and channel density, which limits the search capabilities of genetic algorithms at the topological level. Fourth, the optimization closed-loop process is broken, and the design results are difficult to directly map to engineering manufacturable structures. Existing optimization results are mostly output in a graphical manner, without considering CAD convertibility and simulation verification traceability, which increases the product development cycle and the difficulty of engineering implementation. Fifth, there is a lack of a unified multi-physics field performance evaluation system and fitness function construction method. The coupling relationship between the three fields of heat, flow, and solid has not formed effective feedback in the optimization framework, resulting in a disconnect between the optimization process and thermal simulation, one-sided evaluation criteria, and it is difficult to reflect the comprehensive performance of channel design at the system level.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a battery module heat dissipation channel optimization design method based on genetic algorithm is a problem that those skilled in the art urgently need to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0136] During the simulation, the solid structure boundary is set as a combination of fixed boundary and symmetric boundary, and the initial condition is zero displacement state.
[0137] This implementation simulates the realistic physical response of each candidate structure under dynamic thermal load by inputting first-generation heat dissipation channel structure candidates into a three-dimensional coupled thermal-fluid-solid simulation environment and introducing the heat generation power matrix as a time-varying heat source boundary condition. Key metrics such as maximum temperature, average temperature, heat flux uniformity, pressure difference, and structural displacement are extracted from the simulation results to establish a multi-dimensional thermal-fluid performance index set. This fully reflects the thermal management effectiveness and structural stability of the channel structure in actual operation. This not only strengthens the physical foundation of fitness assessment but also improves the accuracy of the objective function response during the optimization process, providing refined and quantified physical support for the structural optimization results.
[0138] In this embodiment, the S5 specifically includes:
[0139] S51. Using a multi-objective genetic algorithm based on Pareto optimal sorting, normalize the thermal-fluid performance index set corresponding to each heat dissipation channel structure candidate in the first generation population structure, and calculate the heat flux density distribution uniformity index, structural complexity index, and pressure energy loss index based on the multi-objective optimization objective function set, and perform non-dominated level division and crowding distance calculation in the objective function space;
[0140] S52. Construct a ranking mapping relationship based on the non-dominated rank and crowding distance results, and use a tournament selection mechanism to select heat dissipation channel structure candidates in the Pareto front region from the current population as parent individuals;
[0141] S53, inputting the selected parent structure into the genetic operation module in the form of structural parameter encoding, using a uniform crossover operator to combine structural parameters among multiple parents, constructing a new topological structure perturbation combination, and performing a mutation operation based on the probability density function set by the perturbation parameter set to improve structural diversity;
[0142] S54. After the generation structure candidate is constructed, the heat generation power matrix is used as the heat source boundary condition, and a thermal-fluid-solid coupling simulation process is performed to extract its temperature field, flow velocity field, and structural response index to form a corresponding thermal-fluid performance index set;
[0143] S55. The offspring structural candidates and their thermal-fluid performance indicators are merged with the previous generation non-dominated structure set to form an intermediate population structure. The solution set distribution state of the population structure in the objective function space is optimized and screened again based on the Pareto ranking and crowding distance calculation. Several structural candidates with higher ranking levels and good solution set diversity are selected to form a new generation of population structure.
[0144] This implementation introduces a multi-objective genetic algorithm to normalize and non-dominatedly sort the thermal-fluid performance index set, and combines it with crowding distance to assess individual performance, effectively constructing an evaluation mechanism capable of balancing multiple performance metrics. Furthermore, a tournament selection strategy is employed to enhance the probability of retaining high-quality structures. A new generation of structural candidates is generated through uniform crossover of structural parameters and perturbation mutation. Simulation feedback is used to establish an intermediate population structure. Finally, a Pareto ranking is performed using a multi-objective function set to select the optimal structure. This significantly enhances the global search capability and multi-objective coordinated control capabilities of the optimization process, improving the diversity, stability, and physical feasibility of the optimization results.
[0145] In this embodiment, S6 specifically includes:
[0146] S61, set the iteration termination criterion, the iteration termination criterion includes the maximum number of iterations G max and the convergence threshold δ conv ;
[0147] S62. After each generation of new population structure is generated, perform non-dominated sorting on all heat dissipation channel structure candidates in the new generation population structure based on the multi-objective optimization objective function set, and extract the current generation non-dominated structure set. And compared with the non-dominated structure set saved in the previous iteration Compare and terminate the iteration process if any of the following conditions is met:
[0148] Current iteration number g≥G max ;
[0149] The change in the distance between the non-dominated structure sets of the current generation and the previous generation
[0150] S63. After the iteration termination criterion is met, a set of heat dissipation channel structure candidates with the highest non-dominated level is selected from the final generation population structure and output as a heat dissipation channel topology structure model with an optimal trade-off solution.
[0151] This implementation introduces a phased convergence judgment mechanism for each round of population structure evolution by setting a dual iterative termination criterion consisting of a maximum number of iterations and a convergence threshold. This mechanism dynamically monitors the distance between the current and previous generation's non-dominated structure sets, automatically terminating the evolution process when the number of iterations reaches its upper limit or when the optimal structure set stabilizes. This ensures that the optimization algorithm achieves a sufficient search while avoiding invalid iterations and wasted computational resources. Furthermore, after the iterations terminate, the optimal non-dominated structure is extracted from the final population as the output, enhancing the adaptive control capabilities of the optimization process and the stability of the final structure, ensuring the reliability of the optimization design results in terms of physical feasibility and multi-objective compromise performance.
[0152] Example 1:
[0153] To verify the engineering feasibility and actual performance improvement capabilities of this invention in the design of complex battery module heat dissipation channel structures, the research team, in collaboration with a large new energy vehicle manufacturer in East China, completed a complete optimization design practice on its thermal management simulation platform and production test line from August to September 2024. The company selected a 72S12P liquid-cooled module platform for the test, which uses high-energy-density square cells and has a system capacity of 83.2kWh. The module cooling structure is a composite layout of parallel channels at the bottom and auxiliary heat exchange paths on both sides. The initial design had multiple thermal management shortcomings, especially under high-temperature and high-rate conditions, which showed typical problems such as uneven heat distribution, excessive pressure drop, and complex structural layout.
[0154] The original design approach was based primarily on experience, with parameters adjusted through CFD simulation and relying on engineers to gradually adjust parameters. Actual evaluations showed that under high-rate 1.5C discharge, the core temperature of the module was significantly higher than the edges, with a maximum temperature difference of 13°C. Sudden changes in pressure drop occurred in localized channels, resulting in dead zones and a sharp drop in heat dissipation efficiency at the edges. Furthermore, on the manufacturing side, this irregular structure placed high demands on molds, extending the manufacturing cycle and increasing costs.
[0155] After introducing the proposed method, the module's operating data was first collected under four typical dynamic operating conditions: stable discharge at room temperature, high-rate rapid discharge, low-speed operation in urban congestion, and restart after high summer sun exposure. Under these conditions, time, current density, and cell internal resistance were measured to form a time-series thermal power function. This discretized thermal power matrix was then constructed to serve as the thermal boundary condition input for the optimization process.
[0156] Subsequently, a topological construction region was constructed based on the module's geometric boundary conditions and flow channel interface constraints. A perturbed structural template was established using parameters such as channel width, number of branch nodes, connection angle, and minimum spacing. A sinusoidal perturbation function was used to generate the initial population, and the thermal-fluid-solid simulation process was then initiated. During the simulation, the temperature distribution, pressure drop distribution, heat flux field, and structural response of each structure were extracted for the corresponding heat source input. Multiple indicators, such as heat flux uniformity, structural complexity, and flow pressure loss, were incorporated into the objective function set to form the optimization direction.
[0157] The NSGA-II multi-objective genetic algorithm was used for optimization. Within each generation, non-dominated sorting, crowding calculation, tournament selection, uniform crossover, and perturbation mutation were performed, ultimately selecting the optimal structural topology as the multi-objective Pareto front solution. The structure was modeled using CAD and imported into a CFD and structural strength simulation platform, forming a complete verification process.
[0158] The optimized structure shows stable improvement in both actual measurements and simulations. The following is a performance comparison between the present invention and the traditional design under different typical working conditions:
[0159] Table 1 Performance comparison between the present invention and the traditional structure under typical working conditions
[0160]
[0161]
[0162] As can be seen from the table above, in the normal temperature discharge scenario, the present invention controls the maximum module temperature within 43.1°C, reduces the pressure drop to 18.3kPa, and improves the heat flow uniformity index to 0.82, indicating that the cooling channel has formed a more balanced heat exchange capacity after structural perturbation optimization. Under high-rate discharge, the structure of the present invention effectively avoids heat accumulation, and the maximum temperature drops by nearly 7°C compared to the traditional structure, and the pressure drop is also reduced by 4.3kPa. The heat flow is more evenly distributed in the channel, and the structural complexity score drops to 0.62. The manufacturing end does not need to use special molds to quickly process, reducing costs.
[0163] Urban congestion scenarios are particularly challenging for the responsiveness of the heat dissipation structure under conditions of low flow rates and frequent thermal shocks. Due to the optimization of channel branches and symmetrical path control, the structure of the present invention achieves a more sufficient redistribution of the coolant, reduces the maximum temperature by 5.9°C, reduces the pressure drop by 2.7kPa, and the heat flow distribution is displayed as a continuous gradient change area in the simulation diagram. Hot spot faults rarely occur, and the system stability is significantly enhanced. Under the most challenging high-temperature exposure conditions, the structure of the present invention controls the extreme temperature of the traditional structure of 57.6°C to 50.8°C, and the pressure drop is controlled within 22.7kPa, effectively avoiding BMS alarms and performance degradation.
[0164] In terms of manufacturing feasibility, the proposed structure can be directly converted into a standard STEP format and imported into the company's existing integrated CAD-CAM tool chain. Compared to traditional structures, the number of path nodes is reduced by approximately 36%, resulting in a simpler CNC path, shortening the machining cycle from 13.4 days to 7.2 days, and reducing the process scrap rate from 7.3% to 1.6%. Furthermore, engineers stated that the proposed structure demonstrated good interface compatibility in 3D pre-assembly simulations, improving overall process stability.
[0165] Based on this data, the project's technical lead stated in their final report that this method not only optimizes the thermal performance of the heat dissipation channel but also significantly improves structural design efficiency and manufacturing feasibility, representing a promising technology path for intelligent design of thermal management structures. The company's management has decided to integrate this method into the standard process of its 2025 thermal system simulation platform, ensuring long-term use as a core module for channel structure optimization.
[0166] In summary, this embodiment clearly verifies the systematic optimization capability of the present invention under the constraints of multiple working conditions, dynamic thermal loads, and battery structure complexity. It has the advantages of realistic heat source modeling, efficient search path, intuitive and manufacturable structural output, and smooth engineering process docking. It is an innovative structural optimization technology with potential for actual engineering implementation.
[0167] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
