The thermal runaway gas explosion hazard in BESS was systematically studied. To further grasp the failure process and explosion hazard of battery thermal runaway gas, numerical modeling and investigation were carried out based on a severe battery fire and explosion accident in a lithium-ion battery energy storage system (LIBESS) in China.
Here, experimental and numerical studies on the gas explosion hazards of container type lithium-ion battery energy storage station are carried out. In the experiment, the LiFePO 4 battery module of 8.8kWh was overcharged to thermal runaway in a real energy storage container, and the combustible gases were ignited to trigger an explosion.

Deflagration pressure and gas burning velocity in one important incident. High-voltage arc induced explosion pressures. Utility-scale lithium-ion energy storage batteries are being installed at an accelerating rate in many parts of the world. Some of these batteries have experienced troubling fires and explosions.
The external flame length was over 15 m. Therefore, high-temperature injury is the main factor in the risk of outdoor explosion in this accident. The accident consequence model was introduced into the cause analysis of the accident to seek possible battery failure prevention solutions.
Considering that gas explosion may cause thermal runaway of battery module in the actual scene, the existence of high-temperature zone may be longer and the temperature peak may be higher. After the combustible gas got on fire, the gases volume expanded by high-temperature compresses the volume of the surrounding gases.
