Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an energy module having a plurality of energy generating cells, and at least one cooling plate having opposing surfaces. The cooling plate is disposed between an adjacent pair of the energy generating cells such that the opposing surfaces of the cooling plate are in contact with surfaces of the adjacent pair of energy generating cells. The cooling plate has at least one coolant flow channel configured to receive a coolant flow therethrough to limit propagation of heat from one to the other of either one of the adjacent pair of energy generating cells when either one of the adjacent pair of energy generating cells fails.
