Abstract
A battery pack includes a battery module with a bottom surface, and a cooling plate with a sheet member that holds the battery module thereon. The sheet member has first and second flow channels extending substantially parallel to one another. The first flow channel is disposed closer to a first longitudinal edge of the sheet member than the second flow channel. The first flow channel has a first cross-sectional area and a coolant flowing through the first flow channel having a first velocity. The second flow channel has a second cross-sectional area that is less than the first cross-sectional area of the first flow channel such that the coolant flowing through the second flow channel has a second velocity that is greater than the first velocity.
