The temperature of battery modules in electric vehicles (EVs) must be  controlled adequately to remain within a specified range for optimum  performance. In this research work, thermal management of battery modules  with phase change materials (PCMs) was investigated experimentally and  computationally. lithium ion battery pack cooled with a phase change  material (PCM) for removing heat generated during the battery charging and  discharging cycles. Computations and experiments were carried out to  estimate the heat transfer, solidification and melting characteristics of  the PCM used in the thermal management of a Li-Ion cell module. Four PCM’s  (GR44, RT50, OM35 and paraffin wax) with different melting temperature were  used for the study. Battery operating temperature and melting point are the  key parameters for selection of PCM. Experiments have been carried out only  for OM35 & Paraffin Wax, because PCM OM35 melting point is within the  battery operating temperature and Paraffin Wax for considering harshest  condition. PCM OM 35 melting temperature range is below 35˚C which is  accordance with a desire to keep battery temperature below 35˚C. Based on  experimental & simulation results, it was found that OM35 is keeping battery  temperature range minimal, which was the ideal for Li-ion battery thermal  management.
