A partition member has a thickness direction and a surface direction perpendicular to the thickness direction, and which separates single cells that make up an assembled battery in the thickness direction, or a single cell that makes up the assembled battery in the thickness direction and a member other than the single cells. The partition member includes, in the interior thereof, a fluid having a boiling point at normal pressure of 80° C. to 250° C., and a flow channel of the fluid extending along the surface direction. The fluid is held in a fluid holding part, and the fluid holding part is hermetically sealed by a packaging material.

An assembly comprising a housing (6) having walls (11) and containing groups of electrical cells (7). Each wall contains at least one space in which, at a given time, a flow of thermal fluid (F2) can be present.

The said space, and thus the corresponding wall (11), has a flow of fluid inlet and outlet. In a flow of fluid-tight manner, the flow of fluid inlet and outlet communicate with, respectively, a supply (25a) of thermal flow of fluid and a discharge (25b) of said flow of fluid, so that the flow of fluid can circulate in said space. Through the surrounding wall and said sealed communications, said space is physically isolated from the cells, so that the flow of fluid (F2) therein and the interior space (9) of the housing do not communicate. The wall (11) extends parallel to at least one of the lateral faces of at least one said cell (7).

Thermal regulation device intended for at least one electrical component whose temperature must be regulated, the thermal regulation device including at last a housing, a cover affixed to said housing and a first circuit, configured to allow circulation of a dielectric fluid. The housing includes at least a plurality of lateral walls delimiting an internal volume of the housing in which at least the electrical component extends. The first circuit includes at least one dielectric fluid supply duct formed between the housing and the lid, at least one of the lateral walls and/or the bottom wall having at least one orifice for spraying the dielectric fluid into the internal volume, which is fluidically connected at least to the supply duct.

A battery includes a battery cell, a box configured to accommodate the battery cell, a pipe configured to condense a gas inside the box to form a condensate, and a liquid collecting member provided between the battery cell and the pipe. The liquid collecting member is provided with an accommodating portion facing the pipe, and the accommodating portion is configured to collect the condensate.

A secondary battery module, a secondary battery pack, and a vehicle including the same are provided. The secondary battery module includes a plurality of secondary battery cells having a battery case in which an electrode assembly and an electrolyte are accommodated; a frame member supporting the plurality of secondary battery cells; and a cover accommodating the plurality of secondary battery cells and the frame member. The plurality of secondary battery cells have a water proofing structure.

A heat transfer device includes a bag and a working fluid. The bag includes a first sheet and a second sheet with edges that are sealed together. The working fluid is enclosed in the bag. The working fluid changes a phase thereof between gas and liquid. The bag includes a vaporizing portion in which the liquid-phase working fluid is vaporized and a condensing portion in which the gas-phase working fluid is condensed. The bag includes a two-phase flow channel in which liquid-gas two-phase slug flow including the liquid-phase working fluid and the gas-phase working fluid occurs from the vaporizing portion to the condensing portion. The two-phase flow channel is provided in an internal space of the bag.
