Abstract

The increment in environmental pollution and the depletion of fossil fuels urge the automobile industry to shift its focus toward the Electric vehicle (EV) market. As the market for EVs grows, the mileage of an electric vehicle with a fully charged battery becomes more important. The mileage of an EV is directly affected by harsh driving conditions or ambient temperature. A proper thermal management system is highly needed in order to improve the mileage of the EV. Aside from the battery, the Induction motor (IM) is one of the most important components of an electric vehicle. It is the heart of the EV propulsion system. The present study concentrated more on the efficient cooling methodology of IM, which also directly influences the performance of the battery. The cooling water circulation mechanism is adopted for efficient cooling of the IM. The entire system is designed with ANSYS finite element software package. Through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), the entire thermal management system is analyzed. The numerical model is verified against the experimental setup and the results show a 0.2% of standard deviation. Additionally, the influence of the motor coolant’s mass flow rate on the pressure drop is investigated.
