Heat is a roadblock in acheiving the power, safety and compactness required for demanding off-highway applications. Motors, power electronics and batteries are all limited by heat. Air cooling is simple to implement and robust, but linited in performance. On the other hand, liquid cooling, adopted in the automotive sector, is performant but its limited robustness and complexity prevent its adoption in industrial equipment. This session will describe the thermal challenges in electrification, compare the leading thermal management solutions, and propose novel strategies that deliver the performance of liquid cooling but with the simplicity of air cooling.

• Thermal challenges in the electrification of industrial equipment and vehicles
• State-of-the-art of cooling technologies for batteries, motors and electronics
• The trade-offs in choosing a thermal management approach for your application
• Novel thermal management solutions that deliver the performance of liquid cooling, but with the simplicity of air cooling
• Be inspired to push the boundaries of electrification, where heat is not a roadblock!
