NORTHVILLE, Mich., April 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As the electric vehicle (EV) market continues to evolve, automakers remain focused on improving vehicle driving range to help address consumer adoption. Key enablers to improving range include both lightweighting of components as well as improving overall thermal management system efficiency.
Highlighting how Cooper Standard (NYSE: CPS) is addressing the evolving thermal management needs of the automotive industry, Dr. Brian J. Cardwell, senior director of advanced fluid handling, is presenting "Trends and Novel Solutions for Efficient EV Glycol Thermal Management" at the SPE's Plastics in Electric & Autonomous Vehicles Conference in Troy, Mich.
At 11:30 a.m. on Monday, April 8th in Conference Hall-I, Dr. Cardwell will present solutions that address the size and complexity of glycol thermal management systems, as well as novel integration opportunities to deliver improvements in overall system efficiency. He will highlight how Cooper Standard is using advanced modeling, vertical integration and lightweight thermoplastic materials to innovate a new family of scalable integrated fluid coolant control products called eCoFlow™.
"Simplifying vehicle thermal management systems and improving system efficiency are the keys to unlocking improved electric vehicle range, while also significantly reducing the cost of the battery," said Dr. Cardwell.
