Mathematical analysis has been carried out for the heat transfer in lead-acid batteries designed for use in electric-vehicles. This analysis has shown that the heat generated in the battery during recharge cycles may cause a noticeable use of battery temperature in the absence of proper thermal management. Of the cooling methods examined, electrolyte circulation along the battery plates was found to be the most effective in removing heat and providing a uniform temperature field. Numerical solutions are provided for the engineering evaluation of heat-removal design during battery cycling processes.
