Computational Fluid Dynamics is really the only answer to do so, but the first problem you’ll run into is efficiency. Large electric vehicles require large

Session Details Speaker(s): Mohamed Hussein,Omar Zohni Date: February 04, 2026 Video Recording Presentation Slides Session Abstract Running a simulation is not just about hitting Run. In design, what you see is what you get. In simulation, what you get is what you set up. In this session, we will reveal 20 essential Dos and Don’ts every analyst and designer should know to boost accuracy, save compute time, and avoid common pitfalls. We will cover: • Choosing the right mesh element type • Solver

Session Details Speaker(s): Ionela-Alexandra Gaza,Mugurel-Liviu Balan Date: February 04, 2026 Video Recording Presentation Slides Session Abstract This session will present a comparison between thermal simulation results and real measurements from the DropCoal experiment installed on the International Space Station (ISS). DropCoal is a device that performs multiple liquids coalescence in microgravity. Being a controlled environment, a stringent requirement is that the housing maintains a touch
