摘要

An encapsulation apparatus (illustrated in fig. 6) is provided for a thermal management system (410) for at least one battery (412). The apparatus comprises a housing (416) including an inner wall (418) defining a receptacle (434) for the battery (412). The inner wall (418) is positioned in thermal contact with the battery (412). The housing (416) further comprises an outer wall (420) in spaced-apart relationship with the inner wall (418) to define an enclosure (424) therebetween for receiving a phase change material (426).
