Zusammenfassung:A battery system is disclosed that includes a battery enclosure and a battery assembly contained within or substantially surrounded by the enclosure. The enclosure may include enclosure walls having fluid pathways defined therein. In an example, enclosure walls are formed from multiple instances of a repeating modular wall component. A cooling fluid may be circulated through the fluid pathways to provide thermal regulation of the battery assembly. The battery system may further include a manifold that distributes the fluid among the fluid pathways of the enclosure. The battery assembly may include one or more electric batteries. An example battery assembly includes a plurality of batteries that are organized into rows. These rows of batteries may be electrically interconnected with each other by electrically conductive strips to form a battery pack. The battery system may be used to provide energy storage within the context of automotive applications or other electronic systems.
