Immersion thermal management systems are provided for managing thermal energy in a traction battery pack. An exemplary immersion thermal management system may utilize an edge cooling scheme in which a coolant contacts minor side surfaces (e.g., top, bottom, and ends) of battery cells of the traction battery pack but does not flow across major side surfaces (e.g., faces) of the battery cells. The edge cooling scheme provides adequate cooling without adding volume and mass to the traction battery pack.
