Abstract
The main barriers to increased market share of HEVs and commercialization of plug-in HEVs are the cost, safety, and life of lithium-ion batteries. Significant effort is directed to address these issuers for lithium-ion cells. However, even best cells when integrated into packs for vehicles may not perform as well because of the environment that vehicles operate. In this paper, we will discuss mechanical, electrical, and thermal integration issues and interface with vehicle that could impact the cost, life and safety of the system. We compare advantages and disadvantages of using many small cells versus a few large cells, and using prismatic cells versus cylindrical cells.
