Virtual Thermal Prototyping of the Power Module of the PCA-1 Drivetrain

The paper presents the use of the virtual prototyping method associated with the thermal analysis of the power module, which is part of the suspended battery drivetrain type PCA-1. The main objective of the analysis was to evaluate the thermal effects associated with the battery operation, in connection with the planned increase in the load parameters. The indicated power module will be adapted to cooperate with the wireless power supply module, enabling charging also while the drivetrain is in motion.
