This can be used to study and optimize the Battery Thermal Management System and other Thermal Management requirements arising in an electric vehicle which involves both active and passive cooling.

The importance of finding new methods for effectively and accurately designing TMS that control temperature and optimize the performance of Li-ion batteries. A battery TMS study or an EV TMS study involves the use of thermal and fluid physics and Altair’s AcuSolve (Computational Fluid Dynamics based Simulation Technology), was used to carry out this study. The battery TMS affects the cost, life, and range of the EV. An efficient thermal management system (TMS) is of paramount importance. The key element of an electric vehicle (EV) is the battery and batteries are known to produce heat during their charge-discharge cycle. On October 24th, Altair and CM labs will be holding an introductory webinar to Vortex® Studio Create, a simulation and visualization platform for the modelling and testing of mechatronic systems.īringing design ideas to life in an interactive multi-body dynamics simulation platform-engineers, product managers, and product stakeholders can evaluate design ideas and engage in immersive 3D product experiences, shortening the development cycle and encouraging innovation.īattery & Motor Thermal Management for Electric Vehicles With tools to support integration and distributed visualization, it is easier than ever to take simulations built on the desktop and deploy them to immersive simulators Vortex® Studio by CM Labs Simulations helps you create interactive virtual prototypes to refine product functionality with hardware- and driver-in-the-loop testing of 'smart' control systems. Performing in-the-loop system-level simulation and testing early in the design stage is key to enabling organization-wide creativity and placing the user at the heart of the engineering process.Īs mechatronic product complexity and control system sophistication increase, predicting system-level behaviour has become more challenging. A multidisciplinary system engineering approach is more critical now than ever. Product success is increasingly reliant on innovation. Introduction to Vortex® Studio by CM Labs Simulations
