Abstract

A battery pack having a battery module and a cooling plate are provided. The battery pack has a bottom surface and a first plane that extends through the battery module parallel to the bottom surface. The cooling plate has a bottom pan and a top plate that are coupled together and extend along a longitudinal axis. The bottom surface of the battery module is disposed on the top plate. The bottom pan has a first cooling region with first and second flow path patterns therein that receive a refrigerant therethrough. The first and second flow path pattern are shaped and sized to maintain a temperature of first and second halves, respectively, of a cross-sectional area of the battery module within one degree Celsius of a first temperature level.
