HIGH-VOLTAGE MAIN DAY 2

7:30 am - 9:00 am REGISTRATION OPENS & COFFEE IS SERVED

9:00 am - 9:10 am CHAIRPERSON’S REMARKS & RECAP OF DAY ONE

9:10 am - 9:50 am UNDERSTAND THE CHINESE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER’S POINT OF VIEW ON VEHICLE POWER SUPPLY & SCRUTINISE IF EUROPEAN COMPANIES SHOULD ADOPT THEIR APPROACH

Dr. Ayman Ayad - Expert for Power Electronics Simulation & System Engineer for HV Electronics in Electrified Vehicles, Vitesco Technologies
Mr. Yu Yang - Principal Technology & Market Analyst, Yole Group

KEYNOTE PRESENTATION LED BY A CHINESE DESIGN CENTER, FOLLOWED BY A KEYNOTE PANEL OF EUROPEAN VEHICLE POWER SUPPLY EXPERTS

Chinese OEMs are largely working on developing low-cost vehicles; they are equipped with converters that have 5-10% less efficiency, and lower reliability. However, they have lower costs and much better packaging density. The question for European companies how is; do we agree to this benchmarking?

  • This two-part session kicks off with a presentation led by a Chinese R&D design center, as they share their philosophy on vehicle power supply architecture.
  •  In the second half, European experts take the stage to debate whether there is value to be gained in following the direction Chinese companies are taking.

11:40 am - 12:30 pm LEARN HOW TO SUPPLY POWER TO SAFETY CRITICAL LOADS IN VEHICLES WITH HIGHER LEVELS OF AUTONOMY, INDEPENDENT OF VOLTAGE LEVELS

KEYNOTE PRESENTATION

Right here right now, independent of voltage levels, the industry is thinking about a higher level of autonomy in future vehicles, L3 and above. These higher levels of autonomy will require more electric power than ever before. Whether it’s for steering systems, braking systems, radars or computing elements, OEMs will have higher availability requirements for power supply systems and a greater need to have a safe, robust, and functionally-safe system, similar to those found in aircraft.

  •  This presentation takes a look at best practices for designing a power supply architecture, countermeasures and derive safety goals for future vehicles where loss of power is not an option.

3:40 pm - 4:20 pm INSIGHT INTO POWER ELECTRONICS OF THE INVERTER GROUP

PRESENTATION

  •   Gain insight into the most important modules in the vehicle and how they are transforming the electric power from the battery to the motor.
  •  Cooling solutions for the inverter 

4:20 pm - 4:40 pm COMFORT BREAK & FINAL OPPORTUNITY TO NETWORK WITH TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS

PANEL DISCUSSION

To deliver 800V power, wire harness thickness and protection also have to increase. But if increasing the diameter and thickness of the harness, increases the weight of the vehicle, this is not only a drawback for the vehicle’s mileage but also an added cost. How are OEMs going to safely high-voltage from the battery without adding more weight and cost?

  • This is a big challenge right now and a question experts address in this panel.
