Electric Vehicle is the need of an hour, as due to excessive usage of IC Engine vehicles has resulted in the depletion of the ozone layer to a significant level and fuel cost is increasing. With new technologies coming into the market, challenges come hand in hand because of Electric Vehicle. In comparison to IC Vehicle, areas of thermal management or the number of components for which thermal management needs to be done is higher and rather complex. As the thermal management system is the second highest energy consuming source after the powertrain of the electric vehicle, an efficient and reliable design is mandatory to ensure better range in an Electric Vehicle. Thermal Management of the Electric Vehicle has been identified as one of the critical parameters for balancing both cabin comfort as well as Battery temperature. One of the major concerns is meeting the Cabin comfort during colder weather with minimum energy consumption.
