Abstract
The present invention provides a system and method for determining when a battery, or one or more batteries within a battery pack, undergoes an undesired thermal event such as thermal runaway. A sensor pack is mounted in close proximity to, or in contact with, an external surface of the battery or batteries to be monitored and communicates battery information, including battery compartment information, to a battery package monitor outside the battery compartment. Cloud connectivity can be provided via a mobile application to a battery thermal management package.
