Ternary lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have the advantages of high energy density and charging efficiency, they are preferred source for long-life new vehicles. However, when thermal runaway (TR) occurs in ternary LIB, an open flame is easily produced. The burning phenomenon intense, rapid TR propagation high; consequently, vehicle-level fire accidents induced. These become biggest obstacle restricting batteries’ development. Therefore, this study investigates behavior LIBs at cell module...
