Parameter identification modeling the thermal behavior of batteries are reviewed with regard to thermal coupled battery models for the
thermal analysis of battery and battery thermal management system (BTMS). This review discusses various
modeling approaches, including simple battery models, electrical circuit models (ECMs), and physics-based
electrochemical models, focusing on the Newman P2D model. Thermal runaway model that is employed to
inform safety design for lithium-ion battery is also reviewed. In addition, the parameter identification methods
for these models are reviewed. The merits and drawbacks of each model are discussed in detail, and the com­

coupled with 3D thermal models. Based on the conclusions of these
studies, most of them pay more attention to the design of thermal
management systems and the improvement of cooling performance,
disregarding the electrochemical performance. Most battery thermal
management systems, including air cooling, liquid cooling, PCM, HP,
and hybrid cooling, can be solved using this coupled model. These
models generally have the following common assumptions [32,34,35]:

(1) The material properties of the battery are assumed to be inde­


pendent of temperature and SOC owing to their significantly
small variations.
(2) The heat generated inside the battery is uniformly distributed.
(3) The charging or discharging rate is constant.
(4) The radiation heat transfer inside the battery is ignored.

Based on these assumptions, the transport phenomena inside the


battery can be simplified to thermal diffusion with heat generation, as
