Numerical Study on Water-in-copper of High Power Electric Vehicle Charging Cable Assemblies
In case of high-power chaging for electric vehicles
the charging cable carries a high current and
at the same time
generates a significant amount of heat. The continuous accumulation of the heat will lead to the gradual rise of temperature
thus causing safety issues. For solving the problem
a direct contact‘water copper-in-cooper' cooling schems is proposed. A three-dimensional electric-thermal-fluid coupling model of the charging cable assemblies is set up by using Comsol Multiphysics finite element analysis software so to study the influence of channel gap
inlet velocity and inlet temperature on the temperature distribution of the cable assemblies. The results show that with the increase of the channel gap
the temperature of each part decreases
the average temperature of the fluid and of the center of conductor increases along the axial direction
and the temperature of the center of the conductor has little difference within the axial distance of 0-75 mm. With the increase of the inlet velocity
the temperature of each part decreases
and the average temperature of the fluid and of the center of the conductor increases along the axial direction. With the increase of the inlet temperature
the maximum temperature of each part increases linearly
and the average temperature of the fluid and the temperature of the center of the conductor increase at the same rate along the axial direction.
