Requirements for the layout of temperature sensors in energy storage containers

What temperature should the ESS container be operated at?

It is recommended that the ESS container used in this study be operated at 35~75% humidity and 18~28 °C. Figure 2 shows an example of the relative humidity, temperature of the container, and battery cell temperature during summer. In this example, the set temperature of the air conditioner inside the ESS container was set to 21 °C.

What is the operating environment of an ESS container?

The operating environment of an ESS must be managed within the operating range provided by the manufacturer. It is recommended that the ESS container used in this study be operated at 35~75% humidity and 18~28 °C. Figure 2 shows an example of the relative humidity, temperature of the container, and battery cell temperature during summer.

Where should a temperature sensor be located?

Temperature sensors must be located on the top side of each hot and cold aisle within the BESS container. This positioning ensures accurate temperature readings that reflect the variations in the container, which are critical for controlling the HVAC system.

Should energy storage systems be a container-type package?

(This article belongs to the Section Environmental Sensing) The implementation of an energy storage system (ESS) as a container-type package is common due to its ease of installation, management, and safety.

How do I ensure a suitable operating environment for energy storage systems?

To ensure a suitable operating environment for energy storage systems, a suitable thermal management system is particularly important.

How do you manage temperature inside an ESS container?

Changes in humidity and temperature during the operation of the air conditioner in the ESS container. The general method for temperature management inside an ESS container is to maintain the room temperature near the set temperature by operating the air conditioner at all times.
