Main Day Two
Immersive cooling has been a hot topic for many years in the industry and it remains an important topic to keep up to
date with as trends evolve and progress is made in this area. Listen as this expert explores the latest progress in immersive
cooling:
Learn about the latest developments in immersive cooling
Discover how immersive cooling is used to manage the increased heat, maintain battery life and enhance safety
without increasing the size of the pack
Uncover novel battery system testing methods to validate the safety and performance of new emerging cooling
systems
Hear the latest on dielectric fluid formulation development as well as safety and performance testing of new
immersed module and the impact of the required immersion fluids on performance
Discuss where we are when it comes to immersive cooling? How far away is it from the mainstream and to what
extent have safety issues been resolved
Learn how far do we have to go in resolving the safety issues related to immersive cooling
Join this audience discussion and discuss and ask questions on the topic of Performance and Safety Benefits of
Immersive Battery Thermal Management.
Immersion cooling is a technology that enables ultra-fast charging of lithium batteries and provides an unprecedented level of safety. Using fluids developed by TotalEnergies, we will demonstrate the maturity of this concept through concrete examples.
Over the last years, the charging infrastructure especially the fast-charging infrastructure is growing. This will continue for the next years as well. Many experts work on increasing the efficiency of the power electronics used in charging stations and electric vehicles. But there will be a loss during charging in both the charger and the battery. The presentation will focus on that and give an example how much thermal energy is created during a fast-charging stop at a motorway and give suggestions, how to use these waste heat.
Introduction: What is the current situation of charging points in Germany?
Charging Management: How do current EV fast charge in terms of power and duration and how much thermal losses are created?
Waste Heat Recovery and Utilization: Examples of how to recover thermal losses. Requirements of additional connections between car and charging station and possible use cases for the recovered heat
Defining the status and future direction of vehicle electrification in the heavy-duty transport industry
Establishing which thermal management lessons and strategies can be brought from passenger vehicles to
commercial vehicles
Understand benefits of using thermal batteries and heat pumps for commercial vehicles
Which energy storage is most effective for heavy-duty trucks/long-haul commercial vehicles – is it fuel cell or
batteries or a combination of both, or some other solution?
The industry has moved from designing the e-motor as an individual component in the system, to adopting a system’s approach and designing the e-motor to fit into the wider system. Though beneficial in many ways, system integration can present some challenges to the motor producer, so it’s important for companies to know the most effective ways to design the e-motor in relation to the entire system.
Listen to this presentation and assess the most effective ways to design the e-motor for greater system efficiency:
Learn how to effectively design the combined unit of the motor, power electronics and the inverter
Evaluate the challenges related to system integration and the possible solutions
Discuss how to increase system efficiency through designing the e-motor in relation to the wider system
Unpack how and where inverters and motor controllers fit in the e-motor technology ecosystem
There has been a recent surge of new trends in manufacturing technologies like the X Pin, which use new concepts,
which are in turn influencing how e-motors are designed and offering new ways to optimise e-motor design.
Engage with the presentation and learn about the new trends in manufacturing technology and how these
technologies can optimise the e-motor:
Evaluate the new manufacturing trends and technologies which are being used to optimise the motor
Learn about new manufacturing technologies like additive manufacturing and how they are influencing the design
of e-motors and manufacturing costs
Discuss how these new technologies can be used to optimise the design of e-motors
After three days of learning, networking, and business development, it’s time to wrap up the 2024 conference. But
before we do that, let’s look at the future. With several technologies on the market and many optimisation strategies
currently working, even more are under research to push the boundaries of e-motor development and achieve better
efficiency, lower cost and improve performance.
Join experts for this grand finale discussion led by a panel of experts and visionaries from OEM, Tier-1 and Tier-2
companies as they forecast the future of e-motor technologies, which technologies they expect to see in the future
and how systems will be modified to make them more efficient.
