An energy storage system may include a stack formed from a plurality of battery modules, a plurality of ultrasonic transmitting transducers, a plurality of ultrasonic receiving transducers, one or more excitation modules, one or more capture modules, and an ultrasonic battery management system. Each ultrasonic transmitting transducer and each ultrasonic receiving transducer may be acoustically coupled to a surface of a respective one of the battery modules. The excitation module may be electrically connected with the plurality of ultrasonic transmitting transducers, and the capture module may be electrically connected with the plurality of ultrasonic receiving transducers. The ultrasonic battery management system controller may be configured to initiate a battery module ultrasonic interrogation sequence. 一种能量存储系统可包括由多个电池模块形成的堆叠体、多个超声发射换能器、多个超声接收换能器、一个或多个激励模块、一个或多个捕获模块和超声电池管理系统。每个超声发射换能器和每个超声接收换能器可被声学耦合到电池模块中的相应一个的表面。激励模块可以与多个超声发射换能器电连接，并且捕获模块可以与多个超声接收换能器电连接。超声电池管理系统控制器可被配置为启动电池模块超声询问序列。
