Abstract

The need for effective EV charging stations has grown as a result of the electric cars' (EVs') explosive rise. By efficiently dissipating heat from the charging apparatus, the thermal management system keeps its constituent parts operating within safe bounds. A variety of cooling methods are investigated, including liquid, air, and PCM, and their efficacy is assessed using simulations. The study looks at heat flow, finds important hot spots, and suggests ways to improve cooling techniques using programs like Solid Works for design and Ansys for thermal analysis. The project's findings will help create a reliable, scalable, and energy-efficient thermal management system that will improve EV charging stations' longevity, performance, and safety. A battery thermal management system based on a charging station heat pump system is presented to improve battery charging efficiency during high-power direct current charging. Through the charging station heat pump system, the system supplies coolant at the proper temperature. It makes it possible to charge the battery at the ideal temperature, increasing charging efficiency and cutting down on charging time. The suggested system's temperature characteristics and charging time, as well as the original battery thermal management system based on the electric vehicle heat pump system, are examined under five distinct temperature conditions using numerical simulation software to model and analyze the two system models. In this paper we will discuss. Thermal management at charging stations.
