Immersion cooled battery solutions
Bespoke Electrification Solutions for OEMs and Suppliers
Unleash 48% more peak power and benefit from 40% faster peak charge rate with our revolutionary immersion cooled battery solutions.
Cutting-edge performance
Ricardo’s immersion cooled battery technology is being applied to applications in passenger vehicles, aircraft and commercial vehicles to name a few. Our innovative battery packs are proven to peak charge rate by 40% whilst delivering up to 48% higher peak power density.
As a leading global engineering consultancy with technical centres located globally, Ricardo is uniquely placed to deliver innovative solutions for a wide range of markets. Our Immersion cooled battery pack solutions are offered in the following market sectors: Passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, off-highway vehicles, high-performance vehicles, aerospace.
In addition to this our customers also include battery cell/pack suppliers and dielectric coolant suppliers where we can help them demonstrate the innovations offered by their products.
Safer charging
Immersion cooling has a number of benefits including increased pack longevity with up to 22% longer battery lifetime.
Benefit from longer range in a smaller package with Ricardo’s capability to fit more than 1000 cells in a module, yielding more energy in the same volume. Our battery technology is capable of lowering pack material cost and in turn vehicle cost.
As a result of Ricardo's experience in immersion cooling technology, clients benefit from rapid development times. Ricardo can develop an immersion cooled module from clean sheet in just 9 months, depending on requirements.
Our clients enjoy safer, more reliable vehicles as Ricardo testing has shown immersion cooling prevents thermal runaway, resulting in 2.7 times higher cooling capacity.
