With end user demand for H/EV’s growing exponentially across the globe, the greatest challenge to mass production and adoption continues to be cost and driving range with one charge, with the EV industry still competing with conventional ICE vehicles and low gasoline prices. Everything in the vehicle, from the Battery Pack, BIW, Powertrain, Materials and Thermal Management contributes towards or influences these two points – cost and driving range with one charge. 

Automotive IQ’s latest offering, Global Vehicle Electrification 2021: Cost & Driving Range Optimization Series, has been designed to deliver a series of concise, efficient and interactive events, showcasing real application presentations, focusing on everything in the vehicle, from the Battery Pack, Powertrain, Advanced Materials and Thermal Management.


Global EV Battery Technologies & Management Systems 2022, returns on on 22 & 23 March 2022, providing an important platforms for accelerating vehicle electrification, looking at ways to lower cost and increasing driving range, as well as addressing changing technologies and evolving chemistries - 8 solutions-rich presentations and discussions delivered over two days, accessible live and on-demand. 

AGENDA DAY ONE: TUESDAY, 22 MARCH, 2022

9:00AM - 9:40AM EST
HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY MONITORING SYSTEMS: HOW WILL THE CURRENT SENSOR BRING SAFETY & VALUE TO YOUR SYSTEM? 
The rapid evolution in the electrification of vehicles imposes to rethink the internal architecture and the way we develop battery systems. High voltage batteries and their peripheric components become key elements of the vehicle, given the driver’s need for autonomy.
Engineers are facing two main challenges: How to ensure the driver’s safety given the battery high voltage (+/-400V up to +/-800V) and how to mitigate the “range anxiety”?

These two topics will be addressed during the conference. Jeremie Piro will first cover reminders of BMS architecture and ISO26262 safety standard and illustrate his words through concrete use cases. Then he will highlight the key role of the current sensor to ensure the accuracy and the safety of your EV battery management.

9:40AM - 10:20AM EST 
BATTERY TECHNOLOGY CHALLENGES FOR COMMERCIAL HEAVY DUTY VEHICLES
- General challenges/differences of small vehicles vs heavy duty commercial vehicles
- Two solutions/approaches (pure BEV or H2 PHEV)
- Impact on battery technology from an engineering perspective
- Conclusions & long-term roadmap

Marco Karch- Lead, Battery Technology, E-Force One AG

 
10:20AM EST - 11:00AM EST
OPTIMIZED BATTERY MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS THROUGH SIMULATION

During this session, hear how introducing new processes and workflows using engineering simulation tools can optimize, validate and increase efficiency of your Battery Management System (BMS). Discover:


- The use of a cell selection tool to design a more efficient battery based on existing cells
- Workflows to calculate thermal fields within battery modules and packs to better manage the thermal properties of the battery
- How deriving Reduced Order Models (ROM) of the thermal behavior of the battery pack directly from a 3D field simulation causes system simulation of drive cycles to become more efficient
- Why Model-based system engineering and software development provides huge advantages for testing, code quality and optimization. And how designing the BMS software using this method allows for qualified C code consistent with the model, enabling a smooth integration with BMS system simulation
- The impact on the battery pack through structural and impact analysis, including adopting a new approach to thermal runaway to ensure vehicle and passenger safety.

11:00AM - 11:40AM EST
MORE ROBUST & REALISTIC BATTERY THERMAL MODELLING WITH PARAMETERIZATION
Battery thermal modelling is critical for the advance of energy storage systems and e-mobility, but a model is only as good as its parameters. 'Meta-analysis of experimental results for heat capacity and thermal conductivity in lithium-ion batteries: A critical review' provides the most critical review of thermal parameters to date, providing instructions on how to use these data in multi-scale models.

Hear from an expert as they discuss the article, and share critical gaps in knowledge and key research needs

CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS IN MATERIALS AND THERMAL MANAGEMENT- FOCUSING ON THE BATTERY MODULE 
Increased demand for worldwide (lithium-based) batteries are used in a wide variety of thermal conditions. To maintain optimal operation, a thermal management system is needed. Passive cooling systems contribute to the energy efficiency of the overall system by minimising auxiliary energy. The Talk will compare the temperature and the temperature differences inside a battery cell when using an PCM-based passive cooling system and an active air cooling.
