In this study, the types and causes of failures in lithium-ion batteries are examined and solution suggestions are presented to eliminate the negative conditions or reduce their effects. Accordingly, external faults of the battery are categorized as mechanical, electrical and thermal, and the relationships between these faults are emphasized. Then, the thermal runaway situation that the faults cause to grow and the consequences of this situation were examined. Again, in the light of the reported data on battery-related electric vehicle accidents, the danger dimensions of the malfunctions are discussed. In addition, the latest version of the new generation preventive measures developed against these malfunctions in the literature is mentioned.

Lityum İyon Bataryaları İçin Güvenlik Riskleri ve Çözüm Önerileri

Öz

Bu çalışmada lityum iyon bataryalarda gerçekleşen arıza türleri ve nedenleri incelenerek olumsuz koşulları ortadan kaldıracak veya etkilerini azaltacak çözüm önerileri sunulmuştur. Buna göre bataryanın harici arızaları mekanik, elektriksel ve termal olarak kategorize edilerek bu arızaların birbiriyle olan ilişkileri üzerinde durulmuştur. Daha sonra arızaların büyüyerek oluşumuna sebep olduğu termal kaçak durumu ve bu durumun sonuçları incelenmiştir. Yine raporlanan batarya kaynaklı elektrikli araçlar kazalarının verileri ışığında arızaların tehlike boyutları ele alınmıştır. Ayrıca bu arızalara karşı geliştirilen yeni nesil önleyici tedbirlerin literatürdeki son haline değinilmiştir
