For many years, the various fluid loops have been dimensioned independently of each other, leading to cooling systems that could cope with extreme conditions but that were over-sized for normal day-to-day use. This has led to system inefficiency and increased fuel consumption.

With “Optimal Cooling,” TitanX looks at the thermal management of the powertrain as a whole to create and use components that act together to reject only the necessary heat. This is accomplished through commonizing heat loads into a single cooling fluid, and then optimizing the extraction of heat from this fluid to increase durability while reducing size and total cost.
