Thermal & Energy Management

Finite element and CFD simulation tools can be used to model and analyze the thermal behavior of various components such as engines, batteries, and power electronics.

These simulations can help to identify potential hot spots and optimize cooling systems to ensure components operate within safe temperature limits. They can also be used to investigate energy recovery and thermal management strategies such as waste heat recovery, exhaust gas recirculation, and active cooling systems.

By optimizing powertrain energy management strategies, automotive engineers can improve fuel economy, reduce pollutant emissions, and ultimately enhance vehicle performance.
