Summary:

The cooling conditions of electric vehicles are completely different when compared to the cooling conditions of internal combustion engines for passenger cars, particularly the liquid flow rate and the coolant temperature. The electric vehicle has a flow rate of approximately 500 L/h at low coolant temperatures and the internal combustion engine may have a flow rate as high as 5 000 L/h at high coolant temperature. Without optimization the same size radiator for the heat dissipation for an internal combustion engine of 30 kW can only satisfy 3 kW of heat dissipation for the electric vehicle.We have developed two solutions to cool the electric vehicle:
