Generally, the characteristics of battery cover has been effected on the expected life span and durability of battery. In this study, the heat shield performance of battery cover was investigated experimentally. Also, the cooling effect of battery for each conditions(material and structral conditions of battery cover) was investigated. As the results, the heat shield performance for heating case is excellent in the case of thickness increasing of battery cover. The characteristics for heating case is more effected on the thermal damage than that of cooling case.
