Abstract
A battery pack includes a battery pack housing defining an interior region with first and second interior spaces and an intermediate space. The battery pack housing includes inlet and outlet apertures communicating with the first and second interior spaces, respectively. The battery pack has a battery module disposed in the first interior space having a first battery cell and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger defines a first flow path portion therethrough. The battery pack has a fan assembly disposed in the intermediate space having a first electric fan, and a thermally conductive housing disposed in the second interior space that defines a second flow path portion. The first electric fan urges air to flow through the inlet aperture, the first flow path portion, a portion of the first electric fan, the second flow path portion, and the outlet aperture.
