| Abstract | This research fellowship aims to address the significant challenges in the development of secondary batteries, particularly the risks of spontaneous combustion and explosion due to thermal runaway. By focusing on improving battery thermal management systems, this research seeks to control temperatures within safe limits and ensure temperature uniformity between batteries. Oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) present a promising solution for efficient thermal management due to their high heat transfer c |
