The technical progress in its design, material selection, structural optimization, thermal management and safety performance has a crucial impact on the performance of the entire energy storage system. In recent years, with the rapid development of energy storage technology, the energy storage battery box technology has also been continuously upgraded to meet the growing energy density and safety requirements.
[0003] The structural design of the energy storage battery box must not only consider its mechanical strength and rigidity, but also the heat dissipation performance and electrical insulation. The common energy storage battery box structures on the market include but are not limited to aluminum alloy profile boxes, aluminum die-cast boxes, and flat-bottom boxes. For example, aluminum alloy profile boxes are widely used due to their good thermal conductivity and impact resistance. The aluminum die-cast box, due to its one-time molding process characteristics, reduces welding and other links while ensuring structural integrity, thereby improving production efficiency.
