In new energy vehicles, the electric motor, as the main power source, is developing toward high power density. However, its heat generation problem always affects the overall performance of the motor, so an efficient motor cooling system is especially important. In desert or water-scarce areas, liquid cooling cannot meet the needs of new energy vehicle motor cooling. When glycol or other liquid coolants are low or depleted, motor heat dissipation becomes less effective. Heat pipe is a heat dissipation technology with advantages such as fast thermal response and light weight. In this paper, by improving the heat pipe arrangement and reducing the overall mass of the heat dissipation system, a heat pipe optimization design based on a drive motor heat dissipation scheme is proposed, and the overall stability of the motor working under high temperature conditions is improved.

When driving a vehicle, reliable braking system ensures maximum human safety. Increasing vehicle speed under driving conditions generate heat due to the friction between rotating disc and pads. Elevated temperatures accelerate brake disc contact surface thermal deformation and shortens the service life. The particles formed as a result of high temperature and friction coefficient on the contact surface of the brake disc must not be emitted into the atmosphere. The ventilation system ensures that particles do not escape into the atmosphere by installing a car air filter system in the outdoor air flow duct. Minimizing the amount of heat and temperature on the contact surface of the brake disc in the ventilation system leads to an increase in the service life of the brake disc. The present research is essentially dealing with the modeling and analysis of solid and ventilated disc brake using ventilation system test rig.
