Electric Motor Cooling: Tesla vs General Motors
Tesla and General Motors approach electric motor cooling in distinct ways, as revealed by an engineering firm's teardown of motors from the Tesla Cybertruck and Chevy Equinox.
Cooling an electric motor is a complex science that requires precise temperature control for each component. While the basic principle involves circulating liquid antifreeze through tubes and using a radiator with adequate airflow, the specifics can vary greatly.
- Tesla Cybertruck's electric motor was torn down by Munro & Associates, an engineering firm.
- Chevrolet Equinox's electric motor was also analyzed, providing insight into Detroit's approach to affordable electric powertrains.
Cooling an electric motor seems like a science that we've had down for years.
The teardown highlights the differences in cooling approaches between Silicon Valley's latest innovations and traditional automotive manufacturing.
Author's summary: Tesla and GM cool electric motors differently.
