Digital Twin Critical To Next Generation Thermal Management
Date posted: July 2024
Predictive thermal management (PTM) is emerging as one of the major trends in automotive technology this year. The Italian startup NEWTWEN is developing a software platform that generates digital twins of physical systems like electric motors and industrial power converters to run on the firmware of those systems. The platform provides virtual thermal sensors that can be used for real-time control improvements and optimisation.
Thermal Management Key to Next-Generation Chips Breakthroughs

Thermal management is critical to the development of electric vehicles (EV). To be able to deliver on consumer expectations, automotive OEMs and their suppliers have been focusing on integrating thermal management controls for the cabin, electric motor, batteries and power electronics into one optimised modular system.
Fast Charging Next-Generation EVs and Trucks Is A Major Thermal Challenge
Date posted: September 2023
With electric vehicle (EV) onboard chargers and DC fast-charging stations getting ever more powerful, managing heat in charger cables and systems is now the main potential point of failure. The industry has to mobilise resources to solve this bottleneck and scale up EV charging to the megawatt range.
