Can a mechanical exhaust ventilation system prevent explosions in Li-ion-based stationary battery energy storage systems?

This work developed a performance-based methodology to design a mechanical exhaust ventilation system for explosion prevention in Li-Ion-based stationary battery energy storage systems (BESS).

Can explosion prevention system remove battery gas from the enclosure?

The evolution of battery gas in Fig. 13, Fig. 14 shows that the explosion prevention system can remove the battery gas from the enclosure. The 3D contours of battery gas can also help identify local spots where battery gas can concentrate.

What causes fire & explosion inside a Bess enclosure?

The leading cause of fire and explosion inside a BESS enclosures is the release and ignition of combustible vapors from an overheating battery.

Does a lithium-ion energy storage unit need explosion control?

To address the safety issues associated with lithium-ion energy storage, NFPA 855 and several other fire codes require any BESS the size of a small ISO container or larger to be provided with some form of explosion control. This includes walk-in units, cabinet style BESS and buildings.

What are the risks of thermal runaway propagation in lithium-ion battery systems?
