temperature. It is difficult to obtain the more important internal temperature that reflects the actual electro
chemical reaction status inside the battery. Herein, a prediction model for cylindrical 18,650 lithium-ion bat
teries is established to reveal the internal temperature under various boundary conditions. Firstly, T-type
thermocouples are inserted into the battery to obtain the internal and surface temperature. The characteristics of
the battery temperature variation at different discharge rates under different cooling conditions are analyzed in
detail. Then, the calculation model of the battery internal temperature under different cooling modes is estab
lished by using the thermal network method. Finally, the accuracy of the prediction model is verified by the
experimental data. The results show that the internal temperature at the positive terminal is higher than that in
other parts. From the perspective of safety, this temperature can be used as a target parameter for the battery
thermal management system and is also suitable as a warning parameter to monitor the battery thermal
runaway. The battery internal temperature prediction model can achieve a high calculation precision based on
the thermal network method. The absolute and mean square deviations can be controlled within 1.5 ◦ C and
0.8 ◦ C under the discharge rate of up to 1.5C and 1C pulse discharge. It provides high precision and reliable
calculation method for the internal temperature prediction of power batteries in electric vehicles under daily
driving with low discharge rates.
