Project scope
- What is the main goal for this project?
-
Following are the goals of this project that needs to be achieved through software simulations:
- Smooth flow of coolant within the thermal management loop without high pressure build up.
- Pressure should not exceed 110000 pascals within any thermal management loop component at any given point of time.
- Cell temperature within the battery module to stay within 20-25C no matter outside temperature levels.
- Flow rate of coolant should not exceed 1.6litres/minute at any given point of time.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
The project would include the following activities to be conducted:
- Understanding the battery module engineering specifications and thermal management coolant material specifications.
- Understanding the battery module thermal management loop and its components.
- Undertaking coolant flow simulations through simulation software within temperature range of -30C to 40C.
- Undertaking simulations through software to understand temperature convection within the above temperature range during charging and discharging scenarios.
- Understanding coolant flow pressure scenarios within the thermal management loop.
- Finding solutions to create smooth flow and effective thermal management functioning to achieve cell temperature of 20-25C.
Students would need to submit and upload the following deliverables:
- Images/screen shots from the software of the simulation results in any format.
- Simulation results/data in CSV or excel format.
- Two page report highlighting and summarizing the results of the simulation.
- A copy of each to also be emailed to mayank@fetherstill.com
