    Abstract: Systems are disclosed for battery modules with cooling systems. In accordance with disclosed embodiments, the cooling system may be disposed against an external surface of a housing of the battery module. The cooling system may utilize a coolant to remove heat generated by cells within the battery module, to prevent the cells from aging prematurely. Embodiments of the cooling system may include cold plates, tubes, fins, and plates, or a combination thereof, which may route the coolant along the surface of the battery module housing. Such features may create a large effective cooling surface against the battery module housing to promote a high heat transfer rate from the cells to the coolant.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a battery module. The battery module includes a housing defined by one or more walls. A wall of the housing includes an opening configured to create a passageway between an interior of the housing and an exterior of the housing. The battery module includes a connector barrel disposed within the opening. The connector barrel is a hollow conduit with a first open end opposite a second open end, and the connector barrel is configured to receive a low voltage signal connector through the first open end and a vehicle control module connector through the second open end. An external surface of the connector barrel includes a pair of protrusions configured to enable intimate contact between the wall of the housing and the connector barrel.
