Because they produce so much heat, gasoline and diesel engines have a short self-destruct time if they are not adequately cooled. Of course, electric cars (EVs) don’t have that engine problem, but batteries still need to be cooled in order to maintain performance and lifespan.
Many electric vehicles don’t even have a grille, and those that do tend to have one more for aesthetic purposes than for air intake as is the case with conventional vehicles. You could think it makes more sense to preserve the grille and utilize it to cool the batteries, but this is rarely the case.
Instead, there are many thermal management strategies for preserving the appropriate battery temperature. Even though air is used, EVs are built with improved ways to provide air directly to the battery and any other parts that need ventilation.
The most effective approach usually isn’t a front grille. Due to the current flow and especially when the battery is being fast-charged, the battery will inevitably produce heat. Although liquid cooling is more complicated, it performs better than air cooling, which is easy to use and relatively cheap.
The Global EV powertrain cooling system market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
A brand-new cooling system for batteries has been launched by MAHLE, the expert in thermal management, or the heating and cooling of the vehicle’s interior and components.
Cooling presents a significant challenge, particularly for battery-powered electric vehicles that require quick charging.Immersion cooling is a crucial technology for the Stuttgart-based automotive supplier.
In order to ensure that the battery’s maximum temperature reduces significantly while charging and that the temperature is spread more evenly overall, an electrically nonconductive coolant circulates around the cells.
The time it takes for an electric automobile to charge is significantly reduced by immersion cooling.As a result, the batteries can be smaller, resulting in cheaper and more eco-friendly electric vehicles. With this technology, MAHLE is accelerating market penetration and broadening customer acceptance of battery-powered e-mobility.
