Abstract
This abstract presents a novel approach to fire prevention and detection in electric vehicles (EVs), highlighting the challenges posed by their high-voltage battery systems. The proposed system integrates advanced fire detection technology, such as infrared sensors and thermal imaging, with automatic gas release mechanisms triggered upon fire detection to manage the temperature of the electric engine and suppress fires effectively. The chosen gas serves a dual purpose of reducing oxygen levels to suppress fires and maintaining the engine’s temperature within safe limits. While offering benefits like increased fire safety and reduced damage, challenges related to gas selection, release mechanisms, and system integration require careful consideration for ensuring overall safety and reliability. Despite these challenges, the development of such an advanced system signifies a significant advancement in enhancing the safety of EVs, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the electric engine’s required temperature during fire incidents for the future of EV safety.
