Other fires in South Korea and elsewhere have involved explosions from other causes, including a vulnerability of some batteries to operate at abnormally high temperatures under certain fault conditions (Yonhap News Agency, 2020).
Some of these batteries have experienced troubling fires and explosions. There have been two types of explosions; flammable gas explosions due to gases generated in battery thermal runaways, and electrical arc explosions leading to structural failure of battery electrical enclosures.
Deflagration pressure and gas burning velocity in one important incident. High-voltage arc induced explosion pressures. Utility-scale lithium-ion energy storage batteries are being installed at an accelerating rate in many parts of the world. Some of these batteries have experienced troubling fires and explosions.
When a massive fire erupted at one of the world's largest lithium-ion battery storage facilities in Monterey County, it didn't just send plumes of smoke over nearby communities — it cast a pall over the future of California's clean energy industry.
The large explosion incidents, in which battery system enclosures are damaged, are due to the deflagration of accumulated flammable gases generated during cell thermal runaways within one or more modules. Smaller explosions are often due to energetic arc flashes within modules or rack electrical protection enclosures.
It should be noted that Li-ion batteries are composed of a variety of materials, and there are no direct tools available for modeling battery explosions. Hence, it is necessary to rely on key parameters that can effectively characterize this process, such as explosion equivalent.
