Electric Cars
To combat global warming and reduce carbon emissions, countries are increasingly promoting electric cars. This surge in electric vehicle sales highlights their growing importance in the global market. Key components of electric cars, like battery modules and intelligent driving systems, face overheating issues due to high-speed operations. Effective heat dissipation technology and material selection are crucial for addressing these challenges in emerging technologies.
Thermal Utilization in Electric Cars
The core components of electric cars generate significant heat during operation, which can impact efficiency, stability, and safety. Effective heat dissipation is crucial to prevent overheating and ensure the reliable performance of systems such as battery modules, driving assistance systems, voltage converters, and in-car entertainment. Therefore, tailored heat dissipation solutions are essential for maintaining optimal operation and safety in electric vehicles.
In-car Entertainment System
Car entertainment systems, with their multifunctionality and efficiency, face significant heat issues, particularly with image processing chips. High-definition audio and video require effective thermal management using high-conductivity thermal pads to transfer heat to heat sinks, or heat pipes to distribute concentrated heat. This helps maintain a stable and efficient entertainment experience.
As assisted driving functions advance, ADAS systems become more complex, handling data collection, analysis, and control through electronic control units (ECUs). Effective temperature control is crucial to prevent system failures due to overheating and ensure reliable operation.

Battery Module
Temperature significantly impacts battery life and charge/discharge efficiency. Waste heat from the battery is transferred to the outer casing through conduction for heat exchange. Single-dose thermal conductive glue or dual-dose thermal sealing glue is used between batteries to maintain effective temperature control.
