Abstract
All electronic devices on the market must operate in their intended environment without interfering with other components. Regulatory bodies impose requirements to ensure electromagnetic compatibility of electronic components. In addition to the regulatory requirements, customers in the automotive industry often impose stricter requirements. Electromagnetic simulations are a key tool in reducing the development time of automotive components. Simulating the design allows for performing cost-performance optimization and what-if analysis early in the design stage. Processes for electromagnetic and circuit analysis, virtual prototyping, development and troubleshooting of automotive components in Rimac Technology using CST Studio Suite are presented. Electromagnetic simulations of battery packs for electric vehicles are presented. Examples of magnetic field, impedance profile, cable assembly and enclosure analysis are given. Interpretation of the results is discussed.
