Introduction:
Thesis work is an excellent way to get closer to Scania and build relationships for the future. Many of today's employees began their Scania career with their degree project.

Background:
The input data and boundary conditions in a thermal CFD analysis is rarely 100% known. Parameters often have to be approximated or estimated. To increase the confidence of the output of a certain simulation method, these parameters have to be calibrated to test results from example cases.

Objective:

The purpose of the thesis work is to implement and evaluate structured ways to consistently and reliably calibrate a thermal CFD analysis to match test data.

Job description:

Measurements will be available on different configurations of high power automotive cables under electric load, free hanging horizontally in calm air.

  • Create CFD models representing the measurements.
  • Study data fitting methods.
  • Sort out data fitting methods that may be suitable for more or less automatic simulation model calibration.
  • Implement and evaluate these methods with respect to accuracy, speed, ease of implementation etc.
  • If time allows, evaluate one of the best suitable methods on a different problem
