Data centres (DCs) and telecommunication base stations (TBSs) are energy intensive with ∼40% of the energy consumption for cooling. Here, we provide a comprehensive review on recent research on energy-saving technologies for cooling DCs and TBSs, covering free-cooling, liquid-cooling, two-phase cooling and thermal energy storage based cooling.
Yuan et al. reviewed the technical principles, advantages, and limitations of four major phase change cooling technologies in data centres, namely, stand-alone heat pipe cooling, integrated heat pipe cooling, two-phase immersion cooling and phase change cold energy storage.
3. Cooling methods and performance The cooling of DCs and TBSs is mainly achieved using computer room air conditioning (CRAC) units, which consists of a vapour compression refrigeration system for cooling and a cold/hot aisle layout (Fig. 3) (Nada et al., 2016).
TBSs are communication equipment centres that send, receive and exchange signals in an information transmission network. They have a higher internal heat density than most of general computer rooms and therefore generally need a cooling system with a higher cooling intensity.
It has been considered as one of the most promising energy-saving cooling technologies with more and more applied in large scale DCs. Two-phase cooling technology and TES-based cooling technology are relatively new.
To maintain the indoor temperature of DCs or TBSs, the computer room air conditioning (CRAC) system and chilled-water system have been developed which are energy intensive (Borah et al., 2015) and contribute more carbon emissions.
At present, the common lithium ion battery pack heat dissipation methods are: air cooling, liquid cooling, phase change material cooling and hybrid cooling.
Air cooling of lithium-ion batteries is achieved by two main methods: Natural Convection Cooling: This method utilises natural air flow for heat dissipation purposes. It is a passive system where ambient air circulates around the battery pack, absorbing and carrying away the heat generated by the battery.
This paper summarizes commonly used battery heat generation models and analyzes the temperature sensitivity of batteries. The main conclusions drawn from the review and analysis of existing battery cooling technologies are as follows: Air cooling technology is not effective for the thermal management of lithium-ion batteries.
For example, having inlets and outlets at each end of the battery pack can promote a more uniform air path, thereby effectively cooling the entire battery pack. Adjusting the spacing between battery cells promotes optimal airflow and ensures even cooling of each battery cell.
Several literature surveys related to battery cooling have been focusing on specific methods such as liquid cooling [34, 35], phase change material (PCM)-based cooling [36, 37], heat pipe (HP)-assisted cooling [38, 39], and their combination . The heat generation model for Li-ion batteries was reviewed by Liu et al. .
Battery cooling systems, integral to BTMS, are essential for maintaining optimal performance, extending battery lifespan, and ensuring uniform temperature distribution within battery packs. An efficient BTMS is designed to keep battery temperatures within a desired range, thereby enhancing performance.
Research indicates that air, liquid, PCM, and heat pipes can regulate battery pack temperature, but each method has its limitations. To mitigate these drawbacks, a hybrid cooling techniques was used. Among these, PCM is the most commonly integrated technique to enhance temperature uniformity in hybrid thermal management systems.

In this study, a liquid-cooling management system of a Li-ion battery (LIB) pack (Ni-Co-Mn, NCM) is established by CFD simulation. The effects of liquid-cooling plate connections, coolant inlet temperature, and ambient temperature on thermal performance of battery pack are studied under different layouts of the liquid-cooling plate.
The development content and requirements of the battery pack liquid cooling system include: 1) Study the manufacturing process of different liquid cooling plates, and compare the advantages and disadvantages, costs and scope of application;
