Abstract:
Lithium-ion battery energy storage technology has emerged as the primary technological route for the development of new energy storage systems. However, frequent fire incidents in lithium-ion energy storage stations pose significant safety hazards. To analyze the patterns of gas generation of Lithium-ion batteries packs fire in an energy-storage cabin and to investigate the suppression effects of fine water mist fire extinguishing systems on this gas generation, the FDS software is used to model fires involving lithium battery cells and packs at a 1:1 scale in this study. The gas generation patterns under different water mist spraying parameters during the thermal runaway of lithium-ion batteries in an energy-storage cabin is investigated. The results indicated that as thermal runaway intensified and the fire spread, the production rates of CO and H₂ gradually increased, ultimately reaching gas fractions of 3.7 % and a concentration of 23 ppm, respectively. The suppression efficacy on gas generation is positively correlated with the spray flow rate, spray cone angle, and nozzle flow rate of the fine water mist, while it is negatively correlated with the droplet size of the mist. Additionally, the fine water mist system exhibits a significant suppression effect on gas generation. The research findings offer theoretical insights into the use of fine water mist fire extinguishing systems for controlling the generation of fire-induced gases and provide theoretical support for the safe design of energy storage stations. © 2025 The Institution of Chemical Engineers
