Optimization of Existing Integrated BCS and AC Unit in Electric Vehicle

Abstract

As concerns about oil depletion and security of supply remain as serious as ever, and in the face of the consequences of climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions, the introduction of electric vehicles (EVs) was seen as an alternate technology that could lead to decarbonization. However, factors such as heat generation in battery limit weaken the performance under extreme driving conditions. Therefore, it is important to investigate the possible implication of heat generation on the various components of the battery and make the best course of action for them. Therefore, understanding the effect of temperature and accurately measuring the temperature inside the batteries is important for proper battery management.
