What You Need to Know: Thermal Management for Commercial Electric Vehicles
Every Electric Vehicle requires thermal management for the battery pack and power electronics for optimal operation. Careful management of temperatures can improve range, charging time, and minimize damage to critical vehicle subsystems to extend vehicle life. …
How It Works: Battery Thermal Management System
The Li-Ion battery cells used in today’s commercial electric vehicles are sensitive to temperature which will impact performance of the battery pack including range, voltage efficiency, charge time, and also improve cycle life of the battery pack. …
How It Works: Electronics Cooling Package
On a Commercial Electric Vehicle, the inverter, converter, OBC (On board charger) and traction motor will self-heat during operation. To improve performance, durability and safety, it is important to manage the temperature of these critical assets known as the power electronics. …
Thermal Management Unlocks Safety, Dependability, Range, and Longevity for Commercial Electric Vehicles
Humans have designed and built motorized vehicles for more than a century. Deciding which method of propulsion to use did not start as a question about environmental impact, but rather as a pragmatic tradeoff between technical feasibility, availability of the fuel source, and safety. Although electric vehicles (EVs) appeared as early as 1886, most models have been powered by the internal combustion engine (ICE). …
