To enhance the thermal safety of lithium-ion battery packs, this paper proposes a liquid-cooled thermal management structure with bionic channels resembling leaf veins. The thermal performance of the model is analyzed and optimized using the fluid dynamics software STAR-CCM+. Using the polar-variance method in orthogonal testing, the effects of multi-parameter coupling, including the number of cooling plate channels N, the channel width W, and the inlet flow rate Q, on key factors such as the maximum battery temperature Tmax, the average temperature Tavg, the surface temperature difference ΔT, and the cooling hydraulic pressure drop Δp are investigated. The results show that N and Q are the primary factors affecting cooling performance, with W being a secondary factor. The optimal overall performance of the cooling plate is achieved at N=12, W=8 mm, and Q=25 g/s. After optimization, the leaf-vein-like cooling plate shows a 1.32% reduction in Tmax, a 0.64% reduction in Tavg, and an 88.2% reduction in Δp compared to the S-type channel cooling plate.
