Laminar burning velocity of the dimethyl carbonate–air mixture formed by the Li-ion electrolyte solvent
(2020-08-21)
If a Li-ion cell fails and the electrolyte leaks out into air, a flammable premixed gas cloud can be formed. The electrolyte combustion energy is 65–70% of the total energy content of the cell. The main objective of this ...
Laminar burning velocity of gases vented from failed Li-ion batteries
(2021-06-10)
In the last decade, several fires and explosions caused by Li-ion batteries (LIBs) have been reported. This can be attributed to the thermal runaway and catastrophic failures of LIBs that release combustible gases, which ...
Numerical study of premixed gas explosion in a 1-m channel partly filled with 18650 cell-like cylinders with experiments
(2022-03-22)
Abused and defective Li-ion cells can cause a catastrophic failure of a Li-ion battery (LIB), leading to severe fires and explosions. In recent years, several numerical and experimental studies have been conducted on the ...
