Do the cells manufacturers Sony, Samsung and LG recommend any minimum air gap between cells in a battery pack?
I have checked a couples of data sheets and I couldn't find anything.
Thanks
Even when nearly the whole case surface is the cathode / negative ?liveforphysics said:and ideally no cell wrappers
If you have cell holders that guarantee no cell contact, the insulation wrap is useless and unnecessary as electrical insulation, and only serves to trap heat inside.john61ct said:Even when nearly the whole case surface is the cathode / negative ?liveforphysics said:and ideally no cell wrappers
I would have thought electrical insulation would be useful there,
if it were bad enough to do that, it'd also probably damage the wrap, and short teh cells anyway. Or cause the interconnects to touch each other or the cell cans / etc, and short them.john61ct said:Wouldn't extreme shock / vibration / accident void that guarantee?
john61ct said:So you think even the thin plastic type is significantly insulating?
Just haven't seen many setups with bare metal cylinder walls

Are there light potting compounds with thermal conductivity greater than air?
No possibility of using convection / active ventilation then right?
