7.1.6 Vehicle Underhood Thermal Tutorial

Welcome to the tutorial of vehicle underhood thermal simulation to understand the temperature distribution across various components in a vehicle. This tutorial explains the steps to perform the underhood simulation using the Vehicle template.

The DrivAer car model is used in this tutorial.

This section covers Problem Overview and Post processing. For detailed tutorial, reach out to support@simerics.com.

This tutorial includes:

1. Problem overview: A description and schematic of the problem, explaining the conditions involved in the modelling.
2. Post processing: Analysis of the simulation results.

 

Prerequisite Step

1. Prepare watertight geometry for Exhaust Pipe and Fuel Tank as CHT solids.
2. CHT solids must be imprinted and that STL must be imported into Simerics-MP+.
