However, previous research focused on investigations on cell level and disregarded the effects occurring in a module with multiple cells. Here, a novel design using thermally conductive plastics is shown to realize a tab cooling in a battery module. Simulations and experiments confirm the advantage of the uniform cell temperatures, but reveal new challenges as despite a symmetric cooling temperature differences between the cells arise. Also, the need for thermally optimized tabs to achieve an efficient cooling is proven in the module context.enVehicle PowerBatterytab coolingbattery modulethermally conductive plasticslithium-ion batteriespouch cellconference paper
