The thermal community is working to eliminate PFAS from cooling systems. Click for an interactive map of PFAS contamination
sites in the U.S.
technology comes new challenges,
particularly in the realm of cooling.
" Since thermal management today is
basically an interwoven spaghetti of all
these complex systems, we need to make
sure that we are putting together these
systems to drive for energy efficiency,
emissions regulations, and sustainability, "
Jayaraman said, adding that speed is
another necessary hurdle for industry to
clear. She opined that the industry's biggest
challenge right now is to increase
innovation as fast as possible to meet
global mandates, regulations, and customer
needs. To that end, model-based systems
engineering, AI, and ML experts are certain
to garner much attention at TMSS, where
many attendees hold better visualization
UPDATE
and shorter time to market as top priorities.
Meanwhile, for SAE Fellow G.D. Mathur,
Ph.D., P.E., the most immediate challenge
relates to per- and polyfluoroalkyl
substances (PFAS), a group of manufactured
chemicals traditionally present in mobile airconditioning
systems. PFAS are colloquially
referred to as " forever chemicals " due to
their nearly indestructible nature and have
been linked to negative health outcomes for
humans and animals alike. In the last year,
the U.S. EPA finalized a number of rulings
regarding the use and disposal of PFAS; as
such, the mobility industry is undergoing a
transformation to reduce and ultimately
eliminate its reliance on PFAS for cooling
systems.
