Accelerating Cabin Comfort: Automating Human Set-up and Post-Processing Webinar
Thursday, May 21, 2026 | 9:00 - 10:00AM ET
Thermal modeling of humans inside a vehicle cabin is essential for developing efficient HVAC systems and ensuring passenger comfort. However, the manual effort required to define boundary conditions, clothing layers, and human physiological properties as well as initializing human states, cabin temperatures, and preparing post-processing workflows can be time consuming and repetitive.
Join us for a webinar showcasing how CoTherm transforms these manual tasks into a streamlined, automated process for TAITherm cabin simulations. We’ll demonstrate how CoTherm leverages tools such as Human Thermal Clothing Manager (HTCM), Thermal Comfort Analysis Tool (TCAT), journals, and automated Thermal Reports to eliminate repetitive tasks, improve consistency, and accelerate your workflow.
Key Takeaways:
- Automated Human and Cabin Set-up: Efficiently define clothing definitions using HTCM, manage pre-conditioning of both humans and cabins, and automatically generate Berkeley setpoints.
- Scalable Workflows: Learn how to use journaling within CoTherm to build repeatable, scalable workflows that can be applied across different vehicle models and simulation scenarios.
- Automated Post-‑Processing: Instantly turn simulation data into actionable human thermal comfort insights using TCAT and Thermal Reports.
Who Should Attend:
- Thermal, HVAC, CFD, and Simulation Engineers looking to reduce manual set-up time and accelerate cabin simulation processes.
- Automotive OEMs & Suppliers developing cabin comfort solutions and seeking more efficient ways to integrate human thermal modeling.
- Researchers & Validation Engineers developing simulation and validation methods that want to leverage CoTherm’s automation capabilities.
