Sophia Liquid Cooling Energy Storage

What is liquid cooled energy storage?

Liquid Cooling: A Solution to Battery Heat Challenges Liquid-cooled energy storage systems tackle the issue of battery heat head-on by employing a specialized coolant, typically a mixture of water and glycol, to circulate through the battery modules.

What is a 5MWh liquid-cooling energy storage system?

The 5MWh liquid-cooling energy storage system comprises cells, BMS, a 20’GP container, thermal management system, firefighting system, bus unit, power distribution unit, wiring harness, and more. And, the container offers a protective capability and serves as a transportable workspace for equipment operation.

How does a liquid cooled energy storage system work?

Liquid-cooled energy storage systems tackle the issue of battery heat head-on by employing a specialized coolant, typically a mixture of water and glycol, to circulate through the battery modules. This coolant acts as a heat sink, absorbing the heat generated during operation and dissipating it away from the batteries.

How long is a 5MWh liquid-cooling energy storage cabin?

The layout project for the 5MWh liquid-cooling energy storage cabin is shown in Figure 1. The cabin length follows a non-standard 20’GP design (6684mm length × 2634mm width × 3008mm height). Inside, there are 12 battery clusters arranged back-to-back, each with an access door for equipment entry, installation, debugging, and maintenance.

What is a liquid cooling system?

This project’s liquid cooling system consists of primary, secondary, and tertiary pipelines, constructed by using factory prefabrication and on-site assembly within the cabin. The primary liquid cooling pipes utilize 304 stainless steel, whereas the secondary and tertiary pipes are made from PA12 nylon tubing.

Where is the liquid cooling unit located?

The liquid cooling unit, firefighting system, confluence chamber, and power distribution room are located at one end of the cabin, with the liquid cooling unit taking up the majority of the space. The liquid cooling piping runs along the bottom of the cabin, while the firefighting piping and wiring are laid out at the top.
