DESIGNING A COOLING SYSTEM FOR AN ELECTRIC MOTOR THAT IS USED IN THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY

Abstract: The paper presents the design of a cooling system that is used for an induction electric motor used in the automotive industry in hybrid cars. The purpose of this project was to build a cheap and with a long-life span cooling system. The material chosen for this cooling system is aluminum because this material is widely used for cooling systems. Also, with the help of the 3D printer for the test part, a cooling system mock-up was built. The design of the cooling system was done using the Catia program and the Ansys program was used to analyze the flow regime. Key words: cooling system, electric motor, hybrid vehicles, 3D printer, pump, sensor.
