This study is to investigate convection cooling performance of the Secondary Battery of Electric Vehicle without heat sink. Research is focused on the comparative study on cooling between forced convection and natural convection cooling. Selected local locations for various temperature distributions had shown in the flow domain. Final temperature on the cell surface has been compared by forced convection with natural convection. According to the results of velocity and temperature distributions in the fluid domain, Buoyancy appear by density difference in the natural convection. Apparent vortex was detected in the fluid domain for forced convection. According to calculations of convective heat transfer coefficient between cell and atmosphere in the battery pack, average value of more 70-78% heat transfer coefficient increased by forced convection than natural convection. Average temperature value of the cell surface decreased up to 46.50% by forced convection. Due to vortex by air, cooling performance of forced convection is excellent. In addition, cooling on edge of the battery is better than heat source location.
