Abstract:
1. An electrical energy storage device or an electrochemical energy generation device temperature altering system, comprising: a fluid flow system with a controllable flow coupled to a plurality of thermal control structures of a high thermal conductive material, the high thermal conductive material having a high k-value, the high k-value being greater than approximately 400 W/(m*K), the thermal control structures disposed adjacent at least a portion of the electrical energy storage device or the electrochemical energy generation device, the thermal control structures configured to provide heat transfer away from the portion of the electrical energy storage device or the electrochemical energy generation device; an electrical characteristic sensor coupled to the electrical energy storage device or the electrochemical energy generation device; and a controller configured with a control algorithm and configured to control the function of the control system with a controllable flow as a function of at least one state of the electrical energy storage device or the electrochemical energy generation device.
