Batteries are the key elements for the massive electrification of the transport sector. With the rapidly growing popularity of electric vehicles, it is becoming increasingly important to characterize the behavior of battery packs through fast and accurate numerical models, in order to support experimental activities. A coupled electro-thermal simulation framework is required, as it is the only way to realistically represent the interactions between real world battery pack performances and the vehicle-level thermal management strategies. The purpose of this work is to pave the way for a comprehensive methodology for the development of a supporting modeling framework, to efficiently complement experiments in the optimal design and integration of battery packs.
