New York, London and Stuttgart.

CD-adapco, the world’s leading supplier of CFD solutions to the automotive industry, will be demonstrating its revolutionary new battery simulation software at Engine Expo 2010.

Taking place the 22nd to the 24th of June at the Messe Stuttgart in Stuttgart, Germany, Engine Expo is Europe's most important international trade show for engine technology. Already regarded as a key event for car, bus and truck engine design and manufacturing, in 2010 the show becomes even more significant with the addition of a new pavilion dedicated to zero-emission powertrain technologies.

"It is difficult to find any auto OEM that does not have either electric vehicle (EV) in production or in advanced development," says Steve Hartridge, CD-adapco's Director for Electric and Hybrid Vehicles. "CD-adapco and Battery Design LLC formed a partnership in early 2009 to deliver an optimum fully coupled flow-thermal cell solution for large scale battery problems. I am delighted to be able to demonstrate this technology for the first time at Engine Expo.”

This revolutionary new tool will provide the automotive industry with the first comprehensive tool to enable the study of interactions between cells and batteries, and their automotive environment. Initial applications will focus on the critical thermal management issues that have a direct influence on both battery temperature and safety.

As well as battery modeling, CD-adapco will be demonstrating its unrivalled range of engine modeling capabilities and expertise, including specialist combustion and emissions models, dedicated solution environments for Internal Combustion Engines (ICE), after-treatment and fuel cells. Visitors to our booth will also have the chance to meet CD-adapco’s specialist engineers who have pioneered the use of CFD in areas such as ICE and Crankcase ventilation.
