Özet:

Due to concerns about global warming, environmental damages from fossil fuels, and greenhouse gas emissions, electric vehicles have been taken place of internal combustion motor vehicles day by day. Being the main energy source for electric vehicles, the batteries have some limitations to give certain operations for safe driving. The battery management systems (BMSs) play a vital role in order to overcome these limitations, protect the battery and ensure more reliable driving for electric vehicles. This paper reviews the papers about the battery management system and its sub-issues including battery monitoring, battery safety, vehicle internal-external communication, cell balancing, state estimations, thermal management, and topologies. The methods about such issues have been compared in terms of merits-demerits and qualitative factors. Since electric vehicles will be the transportation vehicles for the future and domestic production has been started in our country, the authors consider that it is necessary to improve the Turkish literature on electric vehicles and conduct academic studies. The authors consider that this study will contribute to the Turkish literature and gaining some perspective to the designers, researchers, producers, and companies that work in the field of the battery management systems.
