This paper is a comprehensive numerical investigation of the optimization of thermal management systems of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) through the synergistic integration of phase change materials (PCMs) and fin geometries. The parameters are used in a DFN and 0D thermal model, and the model was tested against experimental data from. . A multi-physics model for a cylindrical Li-ion battery has been developed by coupling a model of the thermal distribution in the radial direction to an electrochemical P2D model. The model can predict both terminal voltage and surface temperature, which has the advantage that it can be readily. .
