Genetic algorithm
Genetic algorithm is a kind of optimization algorithm inspired by natural evolution process, which is often used to solve complex optimization problems.The basic idea is derived from Darwin's theory of evolution and simulates the natural selection and genetic mechanisms of biological populations.In genetic algorithms, solutions are encoded into chromosomes, each representing a candidate solution.Through continuous iteration, the algorithm uses selection, crossover and mutation to simulate the biological evolution process, making each generation of solutions more and more suitable for the optimization goal.Specifically, genetic algorithms include the following key steps: First, the potential solutions in the problem space are represented as chromosomes by randomly generating an initial population.Then, the fitness function is used to evaluate the fitness of each individual, and the parent individual is selected according to the fitness.Then, using crossover and mutation operations, a new generation of individuals is produced.After several rounds of iterative optimization, the algorithm will converge to the optimal solution or the set of solutions close to the optimal solution (Rahhal Jamous 2023).
As is shown in Fig. 1, genetic algorithm has a wide range of applicability, especially for solving complex multi-variable, multi-objective, nonlinear and non-convex optimization problems.In the design of the heat dissipation system of the lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles, genetic algorithm can be used to optimize the design parameters of the heat dissipation system, such as fan speed, heat sink layout to improve the heat dissipation efficiency and performance stability of the system.

Particle swarm optimization
Particle swarm optimization is an optimization algorithm based on swarm intelligence, inspired by the behavior of natural groups such as birds or schools of fish.In particle swarm optimization, a candidate solution is represented as an individual (particle) that moves through the solution space and constantly adjusts its position and speed to find the optimal solution.Each particle has its own position and speed, and the direction of movement is adjusted according to individual and global optimal.
Specifically, particle swarm optimization involves the following key steps: First, randomly initialize a group of particles, each representing a solution.Then, based on the current position and velocity of each particle, its mass is evaluated using the fitness function, and the individual optimal position is updated.Then, the velocity and position of the particles are adjusted by comparing the global optimal position and the individual optimal position.As the iteration progresses, the particle swarm gradually converges to the optimal solution or the set of solutions close to the optimal solution.
As is shown in Fig. 2, Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has faster convergence speed and better global search ability, especially for solving continuous, highdimensional, nonlinear and non-convex optimization problems.In the design of the heat dissipation system of the lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles, particle swarm optimization can be used to optimize the design parameters of the heat dissipation system, such as the layout and shape of the heat sink, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency and performance stability of the system (Huang et al. 2023).

Working principle of the heat dissipation system
The heat dissipation system plays a crucial role in the lithium-ion battery pack of electric vehicles, and its working principle is mainly to effectively dissipate the heat generated by the battery pack through heat and mass transfer to maintain the temperature of the battery pack within a safe range.Usually, the heat dissipation system is composed of components such as heat sink, fan, heat sink.First, the radiator transfers the heat generated by the battery pack to the cooling medium (such as air or liquid).The fan then carries the heat away by blowing air or liquid over the surface of the radiator.The heat sink increases the heat transfer efficiency by increasing the surface area.Throughout the process, heat is transferred from the battery pack to the cooling medium, and then transferred to the environment through the fan and heat sink, thus achieving the work of the heat dissipation system.The design of the heat dissipation system needs to consider a variety of factors, including heat dissipation efficiency, energy consumption, compactness to ensure that the battery pack can maintain the appropriate temperature under various working conditions to ensure the safety and stability of the battery pack.

Heat dissipation requirements of lithium-ion battery packs for electric vehicles
The heat dissipation requirement of the lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles is to ensure that the battery pack can maintain the appropriate temperature range during the working process to improve its performance, safety and life.The battery pack generates a lot of heat during charging and discharging.If the heat dissipation cannot be effectively dissipated, the battery temperature may be too high, resulting in serious Fig. 2 Computational process of particle swarm optimization problems such as overheating, aging, and even explosion of the battery.First of all, the high temperature will cause the chemical reaction rate of the materials inside the battery to increase, which will aggravate the aging process of the battery and reduce its life.Secondly, high temperature will affect the performance of the battery, resulting in a reduction in the battery's discharge capacity, reducing the vehicle's driving range and power performance.In addition, excessive temperatures may also lead to a reduction in the safety of the battery, increasing the risk of safety accidents, and posing a threat to passengers and vehicles.Therefore, the heat dissipation demand of lithium-ion battery packs for electric vehicles is very urgent.In order to meet this demand, it is necessary to design an efficient heat dissipation system, including components such as radiators, fans, heat sinks to effectively dissipate the heat generated by the battery pack and keep the temperature of the battery pack within a safe range.This can not only improve the working performance and safety of the battery pack, but also extend the service life of the battery pack and promote the sustainable development of electric vehicles (Dhawale et al. 2023).

Latest research progress
In recent years, the research of lithium-ion battery pack cooling system for electric vehicles has made remarkable progress.The latest research focuses on the development of efficient cooling materials, advanced cooling technologies, and intelligent control systems.Several studies have explored the application of novel phase change materials (PCM) and nanoseconds in heat dissipation, which have excellent thermal conductivity and heat capacity properties and significantly improve heat dissipation.In addition, micro-channel cooling technology has also received widespread attention, by integrating micro-scale cooling channels in the battery pack, heat transfer efficiency can be greatly improved.In terms of intelligent control systems, the Internet of Things (IoT) and machine learning algorithms are used to achieve real-time monitoring and dynamic adjustment of the heat dissipation system, further optimizing temperature management.Examples include using deep learning models to predict battery temperature changes and adjust cooling parameters in advance to reduce temperature fluctuations.These cutting-edge studies not only improve the safety and performance of the battery pack, but also extend the service life of the battery, providing solid technical support for the popularity of electric vehicles.
There are some limitations in the current literature on the research of the heat dissipation system of lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles.First of all, the optimization methods used in many studies are often based on experience and simplified mathematical models, which is difficult to fully capture complex thermal management dynamic processes, resulting in limited practical application effects of optimization results.Secondly, most of the existing researches focus on the application of a single optimization algorithm, and lack the exploration of integrated optimization of multiple algorithms.In addition, there are relatively few studies on intelligent control and real-time adjustment of the heat dissipation system, which cannot fully cope with the thermal management needs of the battery pack under different working conditions.By integrating genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), this study gives full play to their advantages and improves the optimization efficiency and accuracy.Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software is used to conduct detailed simulation experiments to accurately evaluate the influence of different design parameters on heat dissipation performance, which overcomes the shortcomings of traditional simplified models.In addition, this study also explores an intelligent control strategy based on artificial intelligence to realize real-time monitoring and dynamic adjustment of the cooling system, effectively improving the adaptability and stability of the system under different working conditions, thus solving the main limitations in the existing literature (Manage et al. 2023).

Model assumptions
(1) Heat dissipation system parameter independence hypothesis: Assume that the design parameters of the heat dissipation system (such as fan speed, heat sink shape) are independent of each other.Such assumptions enable the optimization algorithm to better explore the parameter space and find the global optimal solution.
(2) Convergence hypothesis of optimization algorithm: It is assumed that genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm can converge to a stable optimal solution after sufficient iterations.This hypothesis is based on the convergence theory of the optimization algorithm and provides a reliable theoretical support for the subsequent experimental design (Wang et al. 2023).

Model construction
Genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are selected to optimize the heat dissipation system of lithium-ion battery packs for electric vehicles, mainly based on their superior performance and applicability in solving complex optimization problems.Genetic algorithm (GA) can effectively explore and utilize the design space to find the global optimal solution by simulating the natural evolution process, including selection, crossover and mutation.Its diversified search mechanisms make it particularly suitable for nonlinear and multi-modal function optimization problems.Inspired by swarm intelligence, particle swarm optimization (PSO) guides particle swarm to the optimal solution through individual and global information sharing.PSO has the advantages of fast convergence and simple computation, which is especially suitable for continuous optimization problems.The combination of these two algorithms can give full play to the global search ability of GA and the local search advantage of PSO, and improve the efficiency and accuracy of the optimization process.The use of these two algorithms can quickly find efficient and reliable design schemes in complex cooling system design, and significantly improve the performance and stability of the cooling system.
To construct a model based on genetic algorithm, real number coding can be used to represent the design parameters of heat dissipation system for lithium-ion battery pack of electric vehicles.For example, if you have two design parameters, the fan speed X1 and the height of the heat sink X2, then an individual X can be represented as Fitness function ( f (X) ) should consider the performance indicators of the heat dis- sipation system, such as heat dissipation efficiency, temperature uniformity, etc.For example, if we want to minimize the temperature uniformity index (T std ) of the cool- ing system, the fitness function can be defined as: The initial population is randomly generated, the population size is N, and the design parameters X1 and X2 of each individual X are randomly initialized within a certain range.
Selection operation: Roulette selection method is adopted, and selection is made according to individual fitness.
Cross operation: Using a single point crossing method, the genetic information of two individuals is exchanged at a randomly selected crossing point.
Variation operation: Random perturbation of individual design parameters to increase the diversity of the population.
The iterative process of genetic algorithm can be expressed by the following formula: Selection operation: The selection probability p(X) is calculated according to the fitness of individual f(X), and then the individual selection is performed according to the selection probability.
Cross operation: Randomly select parent individuals for cross operation to generate new individuals.
Variation operation: Random perturbation of individual design parameters.
New entity generation formula: The genetic algorithm-based model constructed through the above steps can be used to optimize the design of the heat dissipation system of the lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles to improve the performance and efficiency of the heat dissipation system.
A model based on particle swarm optimization is constructed to randomly initialize a certain number of N particles, and each particle represents a design scheme of the cooling system.The position X(i,d) of each particle i is a D-dimensional vector representing the values of D design parameters.For each particle i, its velocity V(i,d) is randomly initialized so that each component (Vi, d) falls within a suitable range.For each particle i, its velocity and position are updated according to its current position X(i,d), individual optimal position (P{i}) , and global optimal position G.
In the whole particle swarm, the position of the particle with the best fitness is selected as the global optimal position G.
The position and speed of the particle are interactively updated until a stopping condition is reached (such as a maximum number of iterations or convergence of fitness values).
Update speed formula: (1) (2) (3 where W is the inertia weight, C1 and C2 are acceleration constants, (rand1) and (rand2) are random numbers, and d represents the DTH design parameter.For each particle i, update its individual optimal position (P{i}) If the fitness of the current position X(i,d) is better than the fitness of its individual optimal position (P{i}) , (P{i} = X{i}) is updated.
Update the position formula: The PSO based model constructed through the above steps can be used to optimize the design of the heat dissipation system of the lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles to improve the performance and efficiency of the heat dissipation system (Uzer and Inan 2023).

Parameter definition and initialization
Genetic algorithm (GA) model and particle swarm optimization (PSO) model are used to optimize the design of the heat dissipation system of lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles.In both optimization models, some parameters need to be defined and initialized in order for the optimization process to take place.As shown in Table 1.
The initialization of these parameters is the key to the successful implementation of particle swarm optimization algorithm, which needs to be reasonably selected and adjusted according to the actual problems and the characteristics of the algorithm.
In the parameter definition and initialization of genetic algorithm model, the selection and setting of parameters are very important.Population size determines the number of individuals in each generation, usually 50 or 100, to ensure sufficient diversity and a balance of computing resources.The crossover rate represents the probability of crossover operations, usually set between 0.6 and 0.9, to ensure efficient gene exchange between individuals and facilitate extensive exploration of the solution space.The variation rate is the probability of the variation operation, ranging from 0.01 to 0.1, to increase the diversity of the population by introducing random changes to avoid falling into local optimal.The number of iterations represents the number of iterations performed by the genetic algorithm, usually set to 100 to 1000 to ensure that the algorithm has enough time to search and optimize.The initialization and (4) adjustment of these parameters need to be optimized according to the actual problem and algorithm characteristics to ensure the efficient operation of the algorithm in different problems.Reasonable parameter setting helps to improve the global search ability and convergence speed of the algorithm, so as to find the best solution in complex optimization problems (Kou et al. 2024).
As shown in Table 2.By defining and initializing these parameters, we can carry out the optimization process in the genetic algorithm model and particle swarm optimization model to find the optimal design scheme of the heat dissipation system of the lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles.
In the experimental design part, in order to ensure the effectiveness and stability of genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm, we set key parameters in detail and provide reasons for selection.For the genetic algorithm, select a population size of 100, a crossover rate of 0.8, a variation rate of 0.05, and a number of iterations of 500.The population size of 100 can ensure sufficient individual diversity within the allowable range of computing resources, the crossover rate of 0.8 can better balance exploration and development, and the variation rate of 0.05 can moderately introduce randomness to prevent local optimization.For the particle swarm optimization algorithm, the number of particles is selected as 50, the initial value of inertia weight is 0.7, gradually decays to 0.4, and the individual learning factor and group learning factor are set to 1.5.The number of particles 50 can effectively control the computational complexity, the dynamic adjustment of the inertia weight helps to balance the global search and the local search, and the learning factor 1.5 ensures that the particles can effectively use individual and group information.In addition, the values of all parameters are verified by preliminary experiments to ensure that they are suitable for specific heat dissipation system optimization problems, thereby improving the optimization efficiency and reliability of the results (Su et al. 2023).

Optimization objectives and constraints
(1) Optimization objectives: Maximum heat dissipation efficiency: Heat dissipation efficiency is one of the important indicators to evaluate the performance of heat dissipation system.We hope to optimize the design and maximize the heat dissipation efficiency, so that the heat dissipation system can effectively dissipate the heat generated by the battery pack and keep the temperature of the battery pack within the safe range (Wang et al. 2023).
Minimize the temperature non-uniformity of the cooling system: The temperature non-uniformity of the cooling system will affect the operating stability and life of the battery pack.By optimizing the design, we hope to minimize the temperature heterogeneity of the cooling system, so that the temperature distribution of various parts of the battery pack is more uniform (Zeng et al. 2023).
(2) Constraints: Design parameter range restriction: The design parameters of the heat dissipation system, such as the fan speed and heat sink shape, may be limited in a certain range.In the process of optimization, it is necessary to ensure that the selected design parameter values are within a reasonable range.Heat dissipation efficiency constraints: The heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation system needs to meet certain requirements to ensure that the system can effectively dissipate heat.In the optimization process, it is necessary to ensure that the design scheme obtained can meet the requirements of heat dissipation efficiency.
Temperature safety constraints: The design of the cooling system needs to ensure that the temperature of the battery pack is within a safe range to avoid safety problems caused by overheating.In the process of optimization, it is necessary to ensure that the design scheme obtained can meet the temperature safety constraints (Chen et al. 2023).
During the simulation using computational Fluid dynamics (CFD) software, we set the simulation parameters in detail and verified the accuracy of the model used.The simulation software is ANSYS Fluent.The main Settings include: the SST k-ω turbulence model is used to simulate the complex flow and heat conduction process in the heat dissipation system to ensure the accurate capture of turbulence effects; Set the coolant flow rate to 1.35 L/min, inlet temperature to 25 °C, and ambient temperature to 20 °C to reflect the actual operating conditions.In order to improve the calculation accuracy, unstructured mesh is used for local refinement of heat sink and battery surface area.The boundary conditions include the battery surface set to a constant heat flux to simulate the heat generated when the battery is operating.In order to verify the model, we conducted grid independence verification, and gradually refined the grid to ensure that the results tended to be stable as the grid density increased.The results showed that the influence of grid density on the simulation results was within an acceptable range.In addition, the reliability and accuracy of the simulation model are verified by comparing the simulation results with the experimental data (such as temperature distribution and heat dissipation efficiency), thus ensuring the reliability of the simulation results (Yang et al. 2023).

Experimental environment and tools
In the research of the design of the heat dissipation system of lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles, it is very important to select the appropriate experimental environment and tools.The following section describes the experimental environment and tools in detail, including tables describing the features and applications of the selected tools.In order to realize the effective simulation of the battery cooling system, it is crucial to select the appropriate computational fluid dynamics software.The following table lists several commonly used CFD software, each with its own unique features and advantages for different simulation needs.As shown in Table 3.
As shown in Table 4. High-performance computing resources are essential for highprecision heat dissipation simulation and algorithm optimization.You must ensure that the laboratory has sufficient computing resources to support the complex computing needs.Typically, these resources include, but are not limited to, the following.
In the experimental design part, we chose genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm to optimize the heat dissipation system of lithium-ion battery packs for electric vehicles, mainly because of their significant advantages in solving complex nonlinear optimization problems.Genetic algorithm has powerful global search ability and can effectively avoid the dilemma of local optimal solution, while particle swarm optimization algorithm is good for its fast convergence and easy implementation.By combining the two algorithms, we hope to fully explore the design space and improve the optimization effect of the cooling system.However, there are limitations to these methods.Firstly, genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization algorithms may encounter the challenges of computational complexity and convergence speed when dealing with high-dimensional problems, which requires a lot of computational resources.Secondly, although the two algorithms have good global search capability in theory, the sensitivity of parameter Settings in practical applications may affect the final optimization effect, resulting in the need for multiple debugging and verification.Finally, the results of the optimization algorithm depend on the accuracy of the fitness function.If the fitness function cannot fully reflect the performance of the cooling system, the  actual effect of the optimization results may be discounted.Nevertheless, through careful parameter setting and model verification, we can maximize the advantages of these two algorithms and provide an effective optimization scheme for the design of heat dissipation system (Hendricks et al. 2023).

Data preparation and teleprocessing
Data preparation and teleprocessing are the key steps to ensure the accuracy of simulation experiment in the design and research of the heat dissipation system of lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles.The following is the detailed data preparation and teleprocessing section: (1) Geometric model establishment First, we need to build a three-dimensional geometric model of the lithium-ion battery pack for electric vehicles.This model includes a cell, a battery module, and an entire battery pack (Menz et al. 2023).
Figure 3 below shows the geometric size data of different types of battery modules.The battery cell has a relatively small size, with a length of 18.3 cm, a width of 6.4 cm, and a height of just 0.8 cm, making it suitable for compact electric vehicle applications.The battery module, as a combination of single batteries, has a significant increase in size, with a length of 46.7 cm, a width of 39.4 cm, and a height of 8.3 cm, which is suitable for power battery systems with high demand.The entire battery pack is a collection of modules with a further increase in length and width to 96.8 cm and 89.1 cm, and a height of 21.6 cm to provide the necessary energy output for the vehicle.Through the accurate measurement and calculation of these dimensions, the accuracy and rationality of the battery design can be ensured.As shown in Fig. 3.

(1) Grid division
Meshing the geometric model is a key step to ensure the simulation accuracy.The following table shows the grid division of different battery modules, including the number of grids and grid types.As shown in Fig. 4, grid number and mesh size data for different types of battery modules are provided.The number of grids of a single battery is 1286.3, and the mesh Fig. 3 Battery module geometry data size is 0.2 cm, which can ensure sufficient calculation accuracy without excessive increase in the calculation burden.The number of grids of the battery module has been increased to 3683.7, and the mesh size is 0.5 cm, which ADAPTS to the fine needs of the larger volume module.The number of grids for the entire battery group is 10,863.4and the mesh size is 0.8 cm, which is designed to balance the details of the simulation with the efficient use of computing resources.Correct meshing strategy is the basis of efficient and accurate simulation of battery heat dissipation performance, which has a direct impact on the subsequent optimization algorithm design and performance evaluation (Li et al. 2023).
When performing data reprocessing, the following detailed steps are mainly included: First, the data is cleaned, any errors or inconsistencies in the data are checked, and the problematic data points are corrected or deleted.This step involves detecting and processing missing values, duplicates, and outliers to ensure data accuracy and reliability.Secondly, unit conversion is carried out to convert all data into a unified unit system required by the simulation software.For example, all temperature data is converted to degrees Celsius, flow rate data to meters per second (m/s), and heat flux to watts per square meter (W/m 2 ) to avoid errors in subsequent analysis.Third, set the boundary conditions, set the appropriate physical and thermal boundary conditions for the heat dissipation model, such as the temperature, pressure, flow rate of the inlet and outlet, as well as the heat flux of the heat sink and the battery surface.These boundary conditions are determined according to the actual operating environment and design specifications, for example, the inlet temperature is set at 25 °C and the ambient temperature is set at 20 °C to reflect the actual operating condition.In addition, it is necessary to set the internal heat source according to the working characteristics of the battery pack to simulate the heat generation of the battery during the charging and discharging process.These detailed data preparation and pre-processing steps can ensure the accurate execution of the simulation experiment, reduce errors, improve the reliability of the simulation results, and provide a solid data foundation for the subsequent optimization analysis (Xu et al. 2023).

(1) Parameter settings Before the experiment, it is necessary to determine the key parameters of the design of the heat dissipation system, which include fan speed, heat dissipation material, heat dissipation shape, heat dissipation pipe layout.The parameters that need to be set also include simulated environmental conditions, such as ambient temperature, flow rate and type of heat dissipation medium.As shown in Table 5.
(2) Design of simulation experiment scheme According to the preset parameters, different experimental schemes should be designed, and the preset parameter variables should be recorded in detail in each scheme.These schemes may include modification of a single variable or combination optimization of multiple variables.The design scheme is used to evaluate the performance of the heat dissipation system under different working conditions, for example, changing the fan speed to observe its impact on the heat dissipation efficiency.As shown in Table 6.
(3) Simulation experiment execution The simulation experiments designed above were performed using selected CFD software, such as ANSYS Fluent or COMSOL Multiplicity.Numerical simulation was carried out for each experimental scheme, and key performance indexes such as temperature distribution and heat dissipation efficiency were recorded.After each simulation, data is collected and collated to prepare for further analysis.As shown in Table 7. (4) Data collection and teleprocessing After the experiment is completed, data including temperature field and flow field are derived from CFD software.The exported data is reprocessed, including data cleaning and formatting, to ensure data quality and consistency.As shown in Table 8.  (5) Analysis of simulation results Take advantage of statistical and data analysis tools, such as Python's Pandas and Diplomatic libraries, to conduct in-depth analysis of the collected data.Analyze the specific influence of different design parameters on the heat dissipation effect and evaluate the sensitivity of each parameter.As shown in Table 9.

Result analysis and verification
Result analysis and verification is a key step in the research process, which ensures the reliability of the experimental results and the effectiveness of the optimization algorithm.This stage includes in-depth analysis of thermal performance and validation of optimization algorithms to confirm the effect of improvement measures and the feasibility of practical applications.After the completion of the simulation experiment and data collection, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the heat dissipation performance.This includes evaluating temperature distribution, heat dissipation efficiency, and other relevant performance metrics.The temperature data recorded in the simulation experiment were statistically analyzed to determine the maximum, minimum and average temperature of the battery pack under different operating conditions.The heat dissipation efficiency is calculated according to the experimental data, which is the key index to measure the performance of the heat dissipation system.Heat dissipation efficiency can be determined by comparing the input energy with the heat energy removed by the heat dissipation system (Wang et al. 2023).As shown in Fig. 6 below.The application of optimization algorithm is the key to achieve the best heat dissipation performance.After applying genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization algorithms based on experimental data, the optimization results of these algorithms need to be verified: the cooling solution proposed by the optimization algorithm is compared with the baseline experimental results to evaluate the performance improvement before and after optimization.The results of comparative analysis should include the improvement of heat dissipation efficiency, the improvement of temperature control, and the optimization of other performance indicators.The computational complexity of the optimization algorithm is analyzed to determine the feasibility and efficiency of the algorithm.Evaluate the execution time of the algorithm to ensure that it is suitable for real-time or near-real-time system applications (Menz et al. 2023).
Statistical tests, such as T-tests or ANOVA, are performed to determine the statistical significance of the optimization results and the reliability of the algorithm.Verify the stability and consistency of the algorithm to ensure the effectiveness of the optimization results under different operating conditions and parameter Settings.Through these comprehensive result analysis and verification steps, we can ensure that the proposed cooling system design and optimization algorithm is not only effective in theory, but also can provide reliable performance improvement in practical application.These verification results will further support the conclusions of the research and provide scientific and technical innovations for the design of the heat dissipation system of lithium-ion battery packs for electric vehicles.
Grid independence verification is a key step to ensure the accuracy and reliability of simulation results in the design and research of electric vehicle Li-ion battery pack cooling system based on artificial intelligence optimization algorithm.When simulating heat dissipation systems using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, the battery pack and its heat dissipation components need to be divided into grids.To verify grid independence, we compare the simulation results of different mesh densities to ensure that mesh refinement does not significantly change heat dissipation performance indicators such as temperature distribution and heat dissipation efficiency.The specific steps include selecting a representative set of design parameters, gradually increasing the mesh density, and recording the key heat dissipation parameters at each mesh density.By comparing the simulation results under different mesh densities, if it is found that the results tend to be stable and have little change with the increase of mesh density, it is considered that the grid has reached independence, indicating that further refinement of the grid has limited influence on the results.This verification process ensures the accuracy of simulation results, avoids the waste of computing resources caused by excessive refinement of the grid, and provides reliable basic data support for optimal design.
