Multi-objective topology optimization of cold plates for enhanced battery thermal management in electric vehicles by Yijun Wang, Minghao Yu, Haiyang Fan, Jae Dong Chung

“…This paper presents a multi-objective topology optimization (TO) approach for designing cold plates in battery thermal management systems (BTMS), with the aim of minimizing both average temperature and power dissipation. The TO model was benchmarked against two established designs: a straight-channel baseline model and the serpentine-channel cold plate used in the GM Volt EV. …”

Assessing the Impact of Cumulus Convection and Turbulence Parameterizations on Typhoon Precipitation Forecast by Yueya Wang, Haobo Li, Xiaoming Shi, Jimmy C. H. Fung

“…The improved forecasting ability is attributed to the RNA's capacity to model dissipation and backscatter. The RNA scheme can dynamically reinforce typhoon circulation with upgradient momentum transport in the lower troposphere and enhance the buoyancy by favorable heat flux distribution, which is conducive to developing heavy precipitation.…”
