On Demand Webinar
Human thermal modeling automation is essential for developing efficient HVAC systems and ensuring passenger comfort inside a vehicle cabin. However, the manual effort required can be time consuming and repetitive. This includes defining boundary conditions, clothing layers, and human physiological properties. It also includes initializing human states and cabin temperatures, as well as preparing post-processing workflows.
In this on-demand webinar, we showed how CoTherm transforms these manual tasks into a streamlined, automated process for TAITherm cabin simulations. Specifically, we demonstrated how CoTherm leverages tools such as Human Thermal Clothing Manager (HTCM), Thermal Comfort Analysis Tool (TCAT), journals, and automated Thermal Reports. As a result, teams can eliminate repetitive tasks, improve consistency, and accelerate 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: See how journaling within CoTherm builds 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 Watch
- 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 who want to leverage CoTherm’s automation capabilities.
