Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a wall element (10) for the construction of a housing to accommodate an energy storage device or to create a cooling plate, comprising a base plate (2) and a flow channel (4) formed in the base plate (2) with a flow cross-section for a cooling medium (6) to flow through, an inlay (8) being disposed in the flow channel (4) in order to reduce the flow cross-section.
Claims21
A wall element for construction of a housing comprising:
- a base plate comprising one or more subplates;
- a flow channel formed in the base plate with a flow cross-section for a cooling medium to flow through;
- and
- an inlay disposed in the flow channel in order to reduce the flow cross-section, wherein the inlay comprises turbulators to generate turbulence in the cooling medium, wherein the turbulators are designed in such a way that a pressure drop generated by the turbulators in the cooling medium flowing through the flow channel is less than 10% compared to the pressure drop that occurs when cooling medium flows through the flow channel at the same volumetric flow rate without turbulators,
- wherein the inlay is configured to define the flow channel between the inlay and a subplate of the one or more subplates or to divide the flow channel into multiple subchannels disposed parallel to one another and being fluidly connected to each other via a recess in the inlay forming a flow passage element.

A wall structure comprising a plurality of wall elements, wherein one or more of the plurality of wall elements comprises:
- a base plate comprising one or more subplates;
- and a flow channel formed in the base plate with a flow cross-section for a cooling medium to flow through, wherein an inlay disposed in the flow channel in order to reduce the flow cross-section and wherein the inlay is configured to define the flow channel between the inlay and a subplate of the one or more subplates, wherein the inlay comprises turbulators to generate turbulence in the cooling medium, wherein the turbulators are designed in such a way that a pressure drop generated by the turbulators in the cooling medium flowing through the flow channel is less than 10% compared to the pressure drop that occurs when cooling medium flows through the flow channel at the same volumetric flow rate without turbulators.
