HEAT EXHANGER AND BATTERY SYSTEM INCLUDING SAME

A battery system includes a plurality of battery cells and a heat exchanger including a plurality of channels for transporting fluid. The channels extend generally along a first direction and are arranged along an orthogonal second direction. Each channel in the plurality of channels has a major surface disposed to contact the fluid. An integrally formed polymeric sheet extending along the first and second directions includes at least a portion of the major surface of each channel in the plurality of channels. A major surface of the heat exchanger is in thermal contact with a major surface of the plurality of battery cells.
