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).
