About the course: The objective HVAC modeling to analyze the various loads acting on the vehicle such as metabolic load acting on the cabin based on the weight, height, and Dubois area of the passenger, Radiation load (direct radiation load based on the transmissivity, surface area, and the angle of incidence the sun’s race, Diffuse radiation due to diffuse radiation per unit area as per the ASHRAE handbook and the reflected radiation load acting on the HVAC system due to the ground reflectivity, angle of incidence of the sun’s rays and the transmissivity of the vehicle body), the ambient load acting on cabin due to the ambient temperature and the car surface area and Ventilation load based on the mass flow rate of ventilation. The battery sizing including the HVAC load, Cabin temperature variation based on the loads, and analysis of the energy consumption variation based on the different ambient temperatures will be discussed in the course.

About the course: The objective of the course is to understand various losses occurring in a motor (Copper, Hysteresis, Iron, eddy current, Switching, friction, and windage losses) and Battery (cell power losses due to the internal cell resistance, and Battery pack power loss based on the number of cells connected in series and parallel in the battery pack) to model the motor and battery cooling to size the coolant mass flow rate for both motor and battery cooling. In the course, we will be focusing on the motor, battery temperature for both passive and active cooling systems to analyze the amount of battery energy consumption.
