Project 1 - Simulating a BTMS
1.
2.Yes,it is ok to use solid material but choose according with electrode potential and chemical reactions.Yes of course diffferrent material have different thermal conductivity.So heat conduction varies with different material.Hence, material properties are relevant or irrelevant while performing a steady-state simulation.
3.


The results are mentioned above explains diipation of heat from battery cells.
4.I have used 500 iteration for convergence.
5.Element Length 4mm better accuracy, as it is universal that when divde the element with very less value and analyse will provide greater result on accuracy.
