[0002] The new energy battery tube-wrapped water cooling plate is a heat dissipation device used in new energy battery systems. It is usually composed of a water pipe network and a heat sink, and is used to cool the battery pack to maintain its appropriate temperature during operation. This water cooling plate conducts the heat generated by the battery into the water through water circulation, and then dissipates it to the external environment through the water pipe network. This system can effectively control the battery temperature, improve the efficiency and life of the battery system, and ensure its safety.
