Conclusions Several large-scale lithium-ion energy storage battery fire incidents have involved explosions. 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.
Burning lithium-ion batteries release toxic gases like hydrogen fluoride and carbon monoxide, complicating firefighting. Even after appearing extinguished, residual energy can cause the battery to reignite. What is the biggest cause of a lithium-ion battery exploding?
In real scenarios, explosions are often caused by internal high temperatures or electric sparks generated by battery electrodes. To make the study more generalizable, the ignition location was designated as the center of the upper surface of the battery module ( x axis: 2.375 m, y axis: 0.5 m, z axis: 1.2 m).
Abstract: Lithium batteries have been rapidly popularized in energy storage for their high energy density and high output power. However, due to the thermal instability of lithium batteries, the probability of fire and explosion under extreme conditions is high.
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.

Lithium-ion batteries have a high energy density, storing significant energy in a compact space, making fires intense and hard to control. Overheating in one cell can trigger a chain reaction, leading to a rapid and uncontrollable temperature rise (called ''thermal runaway''), potentially causing explosions or fires.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely regarded as established energy storage devices owing to their high energy density, extended cycling life, and rapid charging capabilities. Nevertheless, …
