Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of lithium - ion batteries, in particular to a liquid - cooling pipeline for a battery energy - storage container. Background Technique

[0002] The cooling system of an electrochemical liquid - cooling energy - storage container mainly consists of a liquid - cooling unit, first - level, second - level, and third - level liquid - cooling pipes, and a liquid - cooling plate at the bottom of the liquid - cooling battery box. The antifreeze circulates in the liquid - cooling unit, pipelines, and liquid - cooling plates to achieve the effect of heat exchange.

[0003] In the existing battery box body for heat dissipation, the farther the battery box is from the liquid - cooling unit, the greater the flow resistance of the flow channel. The flow - resistance difference between the battery boxes near the liquid - cooling unit and those far from it is relatively large, resulting in differences in the flow rates flowing into the battery boxes at different positions, thus leading to temperature - difference problems and easily causing thermal runaway.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a liquid - cooling pipeline for a battery energy - storage container to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

The flow resistance difference between the battery box near the liquid cooling unit and the battery box far away will become smaller, and there will be no difference in the flow rate flowing into the battery boxes at different positions, so there will be no problem of temperature difference and it is not easy to cause thermal runaway.
