NEW PRODUCTS AND PROCESSES FOR THERMAL MANAGEMENT OF ELECTRIC AND HYDROGEN VEHICLES (NUPROVEH)
Program: SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY DGA
Reference: IDMF/2021/012
RESOLUTION Date: 11/25/2021
Execution date: Jan 2021- Dec2022
The aim of the NUPROVEH project, carried out by VALEO and ITAINNOVA, is to continue advancing in sustainable and ecological mobility and to take a further step to develop products for electric vehicles powered by fuel cells and to make progress in the manufacturing processes of thermal systems to achieve efficient, competitive and reliable systems and processes.
General objective: To research and design the main products and processes necessary for the future industrialization of the main thermal components that will equip electric and hydrogen vehicles.
Specific objectives:
– Design and develop a heat exchanger for electric vehicle fuel cell (IPC) in stainless steel materials.
– Design the manufacturing processes of thermal systems for electric vehicles, to be located at the Zaragoza plant.
– Simulation analysis to validate the best layout of the heat pump manufacturing process and the creation of a Digital Conceptual Model of the manufacturing line (digital twin).
– Preliminary design to achieve the best possible assembly line configuration.
