Newsletter 04/23



Dear Customer,


Today we cordially invite you to the PCIM 2023 in Nuremberg and the Battery Show 2023 in Stuttgart! These two leading exhibitions in the field of power electronics and energy storage provide a unique opportunity to discover the latest trends and innovations in the industry and engage with experts from around the world.

As a renowned research center for thermal management and cooling technologies, we will be showcasing three of our test rigs, which enable us to develop and validate solutions for efficient cooling of electronic components and batteries.


The PCIM 2023, taking place from May 9th to 11th, 2023 at the Nuremberg Exhibition Center, is an international trade fair for power electronics, intelligent drive technology, renewable energy, and energy management. Here, you will have the opportunity to learn about the latest developments in electromobility, renewable energies, power electronics, and energy management. You can find us in Hall 7, Booth 0-149.


At the Battery Show 2023 in Stuttgart, manufacturers, suppliers, and experts have the opportunity to exchange knowledge about the latest advancements in battery technology. You can find us from May 23rd to 25th, 2023 in Hall 6, Booth F64.


We are looking forward to personally meeting you at the exhibitions. Visit our booths at the PCIM 2023 in Nuremberg and the Battery Show 2023 in Stuttgart to learn more about our test rigs, portfolio, and innovative solutions.


Mark the dates in your calendar and plan your visit to the exhibitions. We are excited to meet you there!

New research project "CeCaS" launched - ZFW develops sustainable cooling concepts for automated vehicles


Automated and connected vehicles are gaining momentum. Currently, there is a lack of energy-efficient and cost-effective high-end computer platforms that can keep up with the requirements for computing power and complexity.


That's why we have launched the research project "CeCaS" in collaboration with 28 partners from the automotive industry.

The focus is on seamless performance and safety, and the future sustainability of the automotive industry!


Funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as part of "MANNHEIM2", we will be developing sustainable and scalable cooling concepts for central vehicle servers. As experts in thermal management, we will research and develop innovative solutions for efficient cooling of high-performance computers.


We are looking forward to collaborating with our project partners!

******************************

Furthermore, we would like to recommend our  ZFW Academy '23 - your opportunity for further education! On our website, you will find all the modules available.


In May we are offering you:


Module 09 - Thermal Analysis Methods, May 3, 2023, 08:15 - 11:30 am (online)
In this module, methods for thermal analysis of heat paths in electronic systems are compared, including the laser flash method, the steady-state cylinder method, the hot-wire method, and the thermal transient method, with a focus on measurement results, capabilities, limitations, and common errors in practical application.


Module 10 - RC modeling of thermal systems (LPTN), May 24, 2023, 08:15 - 11:30 a.m. (online)
The thermal behavior of electronic systems can be represented using an RC network (Lumped Parameter Thermal Network/LPTN), where components are considered as lumped masses and thermal resistances (Rth values) and heat capacities (Cth values) are assigned. The network allows for rapid thermal evaluation of load cases. We introduce possibilities, limitations, measurement methods, analogies, impulse responses, superposition principle, and Cauer-Foster transformation in relation to the RC network.

We look forward to your participation!
