Communication - Prediction of thermal issues for larger format 4680 cylindrical cells and their mitigation with enhanced current collection

The paper numerically explores the electrochemical and thermal behaviour of a larger format 4680 cylindrical cell recently proposed by Tesla and explains the need to go "tabless." An idealized spiral geometry is used for 2D simulations with the traditional tab-based current collection meth...
