5. Conclusions A parametric study of the explosion resulting from gases vented from the failure of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is undertaken in this study, and the effects of various parameters such as the vent size, battery chemistry, and the state of charge (SoC) on the EVA and NFPA reduced pressure are scrutinized.
The batteries have the maximum pressure at 100% SoC which also reduced as the SoC decreased. This result, therefore, shows that the severity of the explosion resulting from a LIB failure is more intense when the battery has higher energy stored in it. Fig. 7.
Specifically, the exposure of LIBs to abnormal operating circumstances may initiate a series of self-sustaining exothermic reactions inside the enclosure of a battery, thereby significantly increasing the internal temperature and pressure of the battery cell.
Conclusions To better understand potential exposures, the characteristics of aerosols emitted by lithium-ion battery explosions were studied by SEM and EDS. The SEM and EDS analyses showed that the NMC, LFP, and LTO battery explosions emitted abundant aerosols in the respirable size range.
