v0.5.0 - Battery module liquid-cooling network
Six-cell battery module liquid-cooling network
This release adds a toolbox-free thermal-network reference for a six-cell lithium-ion battery module with serial coolant flow.
Engineering capabilities
- resolves individual cell and coolant-segment temperatures
- represents nonuniform cell heat generation and nearest-neighbor conduction
- captures progressive coolant warming along the module
- compares cooling-flow sensitivity and identifies the hottest cell
- reports coolant-segment, cell, and module energy-balance residuals
- supports irregular timestamps and rejects malformed inputs
Validation
- all 14 MATLAB and Simulink repository checks pass on MATLAB R2026a
- citation metadata validated by
citation-file-format/cffconvert-github-action - Markdown link gate passed
See the battery module cooling example for assumptions, equations, usage, expected metrics, and limitations.
