Thermal Systems & Management Systems

Providing thermal comfort to the occupants and thermal management of components in an energy efficient way has challenged the automotive industry to search for new and innovative approaches to thermal management. Hence, management of heat flow, coolant flow, oil flow, and airflow is extremely important as it directly affects the system performance under full range of vehicle operating conditions. The 31 papers in the publication describe new or revised techniques for methods or concepts to increase efficiency, improve occupant comfort, improve test methodology and minimize the environmental impact of the climate control system; and thermal management components addressing design and/or application topics.
