transfer of the PCM. The thermal performance of the TPMS-based BTES system is studied by simulations and
experiments. The results demonstrate that the composite P-IWP type TPMS sheet structure improves the effi
ciency of the PCM latent heat utilization. The enhanced heat transfer method based on traditional Kelvin type
metal foam structure cannot make full use of the latent heat of PCM. Compared with the P type TPMS, the
melting time of the PCM in the case of P-IWP type TPMS reduces by 30.8 %. The battery temperature in the case
of P-IWP types TPMS decreases by 12.2 % and 11.3 % than that in the case of PCM-only at 1C and 2C discharge
rates, respectively. In addition, the experimental results of the cycle process indicate that the TPMS-based BTES
system reduces the temperature rise of the battery and increases the duration of the unit temperature drop.

discharge rate are depicted in Fig. 10. In the cases of PCM-only and
Kelvin type lattice, the PCM does not completely melt during the 2C
discharge process. The minimum liquid fraction of the PCM for the PCM-
only and Kelvin type lattice are 0.049 and 0.337, respectively. The
traditional Kelvin type lattice can slightly enhance the local heat transfer
of the PCM but cannot make the PCM completely melt at 2C discharge
rate. Compared with the traditional Kelvin type lattice, the P and P-IWP
type TPMS structures provides larger heat transfer area, which can make
full use of the latent heat of the PCM. In the cases of P type TPMS and P-
IWP type TPMS, PCM completely melts in 1785 s and 1236 s. Compared
with the case of the P type TPMS, the melting time of the PCM in the case
of P-IWP type TPMS reduces by 30.8 %. The numerical results indicate
that the composite P-IWP sheet structure significantly enhances the local
heat transfer of the PCM and reduces the melting time of the PCM in the
BTES module.
Since the value of the effective thermal conductivity of composites
falls between the Wiener bounds, the effective thermal conductivity of
the composite TPMS sheet structure and PCM can be calculated by an
empirical model [41,42].
