Optimizing Thermal Management for a Sustainable Electrified Mobility Future

 

As the mobility industry shifts towards a greener future, the focus on electrification and effective thermal management solutions is paramount. Electric vehicles (EVs) and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) aircraft are at the forefront of this transformation, requiring innovative thermal management to meet sustainability goals.

Effective thermal management is critical in maximizing the efficiency of electric vehicles and aircraft. It plays a pivotal role in converting electrical energy stored in batteries into mechanical energy efficiently. Superior thermal management solutions ensure lower energy losses, leading to a significant increase in the range and lifespan of the powertrain. This translates into longer distances traveled by vehicles and extended range capabilities for aircraft, all while maintaining optimal performance.

Achieving Range and High Efficiency in Electric Mobility

 

Next-generation electric aircraft are revolutionizing aviation, setting the stage for sustainable medium- to long-distance air travel. In this electrified future, range becomes a critical performance metric, driving significant advancements in powertrain technology. Manufacturers are leveraging cutting-edge materials and innovative techniques to enhance system efficiency.

Current lithium-ion battery packs achieve remarkable performance levels, complemented by high-efficiency electric motors and inverters. However, these efficiencies rely on maintaining components within precise temperature ranges. Deviations can result in reduced battery cell performance, motor magnet demagnetization, and material degradation in inverters.

For electric aviation, ensuring the powertrain operates within its ideal thermal window is not optional—it is essential. This demand underscores the need for advanced, aviation-specific thermal management solutions to unlock the full potential of next-generation electric flight.
