A thorough literature review on air cooling and immersion cooling systems provided foundational insights that informed our approach. Cell-to-pack technology, a widely adopted strategy for electric vehicles, increases the energy and volumetric density of battery packs but requires robust thermal management to maintain temperature uniformity and ensure optimal battery performance. In our study, we developed a high-fidelity finite element model based on experimental data to predict temperature variations and energy consumption across different battery layouts and target temperatures. A Gaussian process-based surrogate model was used alongside a data-driven generative design method employing a variational autoencoder. This combination allowed for mining useful properties from a dataset of existing battery layout designs and performance metrics, facilitating the identification of optimal design configurations. The results demonstrate that our co-design approach not only enhances the effectiveness of immersion cooling systems by ensuring better temperature control but also reduces the system’s energy consumption by 13%. Additionally, candidate designs optimizing the layout decisions significantly lower the cooling costs by 90%, making this method particularly effective for managing the thermal environment of battery packs in electric vehicles.
