<p>A multi-cell monoblock battery (102) in which a plurality of electrochemical cells are disposed in a battery case (100). The battery case (100) includes one or more cell partitions (107, 109) which divide the interior of the case (100) into a plurality of cell compartments (105) that house the electrochemical cells. Preferably, one or more coolant channels (730) are integrally formed with at least one of the cell partitions (709). The coolant channels may have inlets (620A) and outlets (620B) disposed in the walls (813) of the battery case (800) so as to provide a cross-flow cooling design.</p> |
