New system predicts lithium-ion battery thermal runaway using infrared hotspots

Researchers have developed a novel two-stage early-warning system to detect thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries, particularly under mechanical stress. The system leverages infrared hotspot dynamics to estimate localized thermal instability, which is then combined with other sensor data for a warning horizon of up to 20 frames. This approach has demonstrated a high ROC-AUC of 0.908, outperforming direct multimodal fusion and providing an average lead time of 14.8 frames, allowing for earlier intervention by battery management systems.

    Infrared Hotspot-Guided Early Warning of Lithium-Ion Battery Thermal Runaway Under Mechanical Abuse

    arXiv:2608.20383v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mechanical abuse can trigger thermal runaway (TR) in lithium-ion batteries through localized heat generation before sensor signals become decisive. This paper proposes a two-stage early-warning approach that estimates localized th…
