Vehicle Thermal Management
The LMS Imagine.Lab Vehicle Thermal Management solution provides the appropriate tools and libraries to study all energy flows under the hood and within the cabin, contributing directly or indirectly to emissions, fuel consumption, engine performance and passenger comfort. It enables engineers to focus on interactions between all subsystems and to analyze the impact of strategies involving mechanical, thermal, fluid and electrical energies.
Features
- All standard types of heat exchange included (conduction, convection, radiation)
- Rigorous handling of thermal properties
- Seamless thermal models reduction
- Off-the-shelf models for VTM subsystems: vehicle model, Air-conditioning, exhaust, cabin environment, electric consumers, etc.
Benefits
- Get a cheaper alternative to prototypes
- Easily study subsystems integration
- Model into a single environment all types of energy flows under the hood and into the cabin
- Validate existing vehicle architectures in record times
- Anticipate architecture changes influence on potential gains in passenger comfort, fuel consumption and pollutant emissions
