Excerpt

The article presents a collaborative project between KTM and CADFEM to develop a multiphysics simulation workflow for the thermal management of traction batteries in electric motorcycles. The primary goal is to enhance the performance and quality of motorcycle batteries through efficient thermal management. The project involves the creation of a scalable simulation system that integrates various computational models to realistically simulate physical phenomena. This system includes sub-modules for heat generation, temperature distribution, and heat dissipation, which are coupled at the system level. The use of advanced tools such as Ansys Twin Builder and Model Reduction Inside Ansys enables the team to significantly reduce computation time and improve the accuracy of the simulations. The article also covers the validation process, which includes matching with both constant current and dynamic discharge measurements, and the application of the model to predict various scenarios and optimize design decisions.
