Battery & Motor Thermal Management for Electric Vehicles

The key element of an electric vehicle (EV) is the battery and batteries are known to produce heat during their charge-discharge cycle. An efficient thermal management system (TMS) is of paramount importance. The battery TMS affects the cost, life, and range of the EV. 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 importance of finding new methods for effectively and accurately designing TMS that control temperature and optimize the performance of Li-ion batteries. 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. A similar issue of heat (unwanted) exists in Motors as well, in this, we shall cover the Multiphysics simulation of Motors which shall include both electromagnetics and CFD Thermal studies of both air and liquid coolant motors.

NVH Refinement for Electric Vehicles

Replacement of traditional combustion engines with an electric powertrain, bring electro-mechanical induced tonal and high-frequency whine noise. In addition, tire and aerodynamic turbulent noise become more prominent in the absence of a standard Internal Combustion Engine. Also, the perceived sound quality imposes a new set of challenges. This leads to completely new methods of NVH refinement, keeping the decades of research aside. As it is important to address these issues at the design and development stage, adopting the new simulation techniques to manage future NVH challenges in e-Mobility is of the prime challenge to the traditional NVH engineers. In this webinar, we shall discuss some of those key NVH challenges specific to electric vehicles and appropriate simulation processes to develop countermeasures.

Increasing Design Optimization and Confidence Through Advanced Weld Fatigue Analysis and Simulation

Welding is a commonly used technique in different industries to join two metal parts. Parts that are welded, tend to fatigue in the welded regions, even in a well-designed structure. Therefore, it is necessary to make a fatigue assessment of the welded joints. The fatigue assessment of welded parts should be highly prioritized to ensure a good evaluation of the durability of the weld structure. There are different types of approaches that can be used to evaluate the fatigue life of welds. This presentation illustrates how different welding methods such as spot welds or seam welds are considered in nCode DesignLife software which can be used within the Altair partnership program. This webinar deals with Shell/Solids and Spot welds modeled with nCode DesignLife. It starts with the theoretical approaches, goes on with the modeling techniques and shows the results in DesignLife.

Introduction to Humanetics FE Dummy Models

An introductory webinar to Humanetics Finite Element (FE) Dummy Models, available through the Altair Partner Alliance. FE Dummy Models is a large suite of highly detailed and validated finite element crash dummy models to virtually simulate the behavior of the Anthropomorphic Test Dummies used in crash testing to evaluate the human injuries. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has been the trend in virtual crash design over the last two decades. The predictive capabilities of FEA allow engineers to fully analyze a crash event in a virtual environment. This potentially saves significant costs by better understanding vehicle and restraint performance upfront, and therefore limiting the number of physical tests that need to be executed and contributing significantly to the improvement of safety in the vehicles. Since 1995, Humanetics has developed a large suite of highly detailed and validated finite element crash dummy models to compliment physical product testing; these models are available in the codes most commonly used for crash simulation, including Altair’s RADIOSS.
