     Thermal Management Strategies in ICE and EV’s Content:  Introduction Why is it important to regulate thermals in vehicles? Thermal Management in IC Engines Thermal management in EV’s. References Introduction: Environmental limits for automobiles are evolving, posing new issues, particularly for internal combustion engines. With the same level of engine performance and thermal comfort, the goal is to reduce pollutant emissions and fuel consumption (and thus CO2 emissions). It's crucial to remember that vehicles are frequently utilized for short distances, and engines are typically operated at low loads and speeds. As a result, they are frequently employed at temperatures below their optimum and in transient thermal conditions. The combustion process is inefficient (due to the cold cylinder walls), post-treatment devices are ineffective, fuel consumption is high, and the passenger compartment cannot be heated during the warm-up phase. Then it's crucial to cut ...
