Software Motor Company (SMC) and Ansys are collaborating to accelerate the development of ultra-efficient switched reluctance motors (SRMs) that solve critical noise vibration and harshness (NVH) issues. Traditional AC induction motors drive most of today’s power-hungry machines, including EVs. SRMs are more efficient, reliable, and durable, but to drive industry adoption, they must overcome NVH… Read more »

Accelerating battery development: Part 1 – ANSYS and computer aided innovation
ANSYS’s new release enables engineers to blend system simulation with a computational fluid dynamics approach.
Mitigating EV Battery Thermal Runaway Risks With Simulation Technology
Electric vehicle fires often become big news stories, but what actually causes them? A chain reaction inside the battery—called thermal runaway —causes the battery to generate excess heat and catch fire. Regulations have been put in place so that once a thermal runaway issue has been detected in the battery pack, occupants of the car… Read more »

Multiphysics analysis of traction motors: accelerating innovation in EV solutions
Sponsored by ANSYS.EV designers must address an increasingly complex matrix of engineering goals on tightening timelines. Optimized system design requires evaluation of many different concepts, topologies, and electronic interactions across disciplines. Considering the traction motor alone, there are several design decisions that impact the function of the entire vehicle. Engineers used to perform electromagnetic analysis… Read more »
GaN Systems and EPowerlab partner on new DC/DC converter
GaN Systems and engineering services firm EPowerlabs have partnered to develop a high-density DC/DC power converter (DDC48-1K) for a wide range of 48 V mobility applications for consumer, industrial and automotive customers. The companies say the new GaN converter is smaller and lighter than standard converters. The converter’s input range is 24-60 VDC, and the… Read more »
