A Recuperative cooling mechanism was designed to improve the battery life of an electric vehicle which suffers from premature aging or degradation due to the heat generation during discharging and charging periods and also improving the performance of the vehicle. The cooling effect is produced by the bleeding of the refrigerant from the refrigeration system, thereby increasing the cooling effectiveness and reducing the cost by eliminating the conventional cooling equipment. Several initial and final boundary conditions were set based on the past studies. The analysis revealed that the temperature across the surface of the battery is in the range of 20 – 25°C, which is in the safe operating temperature of the battery.
