Hyundai Mobis has found a new technology that acts as a fire extinguisher within the battery of an electric vehicle.
As the electric vehicle sector continues to flourish within the automotive industry, it's equally vital that the surrounding technologies evolve in step. In a significant breakthrough, Hyundai Mobis has announced the successful development of a battery-integrated fire extinguishing system. For the uninitiated, the company is a member of the Hyundai Motor Group, which focuses car parts and services.
Utilising heat-resistant materials, it has engineered a solution that not only delays thermal runaway but prevents it before it begins. The system incorporates a fire extinguishing agent with five times the capacity of a standard 3.3kg home fire extinguisher. According to the company, this material offers excellent permeability, insulation, and cooling properties, while also being environmentally friendly and safe for human health.
To manage any physical changes in the battery system, the software makes rapid and accurate decisions. The logic features multiple safety redundancies and a robust algorithm structure.Additionally, Hyundai Mobis has developed a new material known as the pulsating heat pipe, which is installed between battery cells. This pipe helps prevent battery overheating by effectively lowering the internal temperature of the battery system.
