Abstract
A debris capture device for use in a battery system includes a housing and a baffle arrangement. The baffle arrangement is sized and configured to capture debris that is greater than a threshold weight (e.g., 10 grams) and/or greater than a threshold size (e.g.; 0.25 inches (0.635 cm)) to prevent the debris from being exhausted out an exhaust system of the battery system. The present disclosure relates generally to thermal runaway debris capture systems, devices, and methods, and more specifically, to thermal runway capture devices for use in aviation systems.
