Modeling cooling for UAM propulsion system using CFD : Electric motor and battery modules

Description

Urban Air Mobility(UAM) has recently emerged as the core of the new growth industry as technology demand and importance grow, and the electric-powered e-Propulsion system is drawing attention. However, research on this, especially the motor-inverter-centered e-Propulsion itself, remains incomplete.

Since the performance of the traction motor, inverter, and battery, which are core components, may be limited or damaged by heat, research on this is necessary. Accordingly, we intend to study the methodology for effective thermal management of parts of e-Propulsion using CFD.
