Abstract
A rechargeable battery module includes a plurality of unit cells arranged at particular intervals; a heat sink plate mounted between the plurality of unit cells and adapted to dissipate heat generated by the plurality of unit cells; and at least one cooling channel positioned on a first side of the heat sink plate or penetrating through the heat sink plate and adapted to circulate a coolant. A method for dissipating heat from a plurality of unit cells arranged at particular intervals includes providing a heat sink having a channel adapted to circulate a coolant; positioning a heat sink between neighboring ones of the plurality of unit cells; and supplying a coolant to the channel.
