Involt — Advanced Technologies

SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE

Vehicle Electrification & Energy Storage

Specialized expertise at the intersection of mechanical, electrical, and thermal engineering.

Vehicle electrification and energy storage system integration present challenges that go well beyond component selection.

Vehicle architecture, mechanical and electrical interfaces, thermal constraints, system safety, and validation strategies must all be considered together.

Involt supports development teams in the engineering and integration of these systems, combining design, analysis, prototyping, and validation.

Our objective is to contribute to technically coherent solutions that reflect project requirements and their intended operating environments.

01 / ARCHITECTURE

Electric Vehicle Architecture

Defining systems and interfaces from the earliest stages of development.

The architecture of an electrified vehicle depends on interconnected decisions involving component placement, subsystem interfaces, packaging constraints, energy management, and mechanical integration.

A structured approach helps address these interactions before they become major development constraints.

Areas of Expertise

  • Electric Vehicle System Architecture & Integration
  • Component Packaging & Space Constraints
  • Mechanical, Electrical & Thermal Interfaces
  • Requirements Analysis & Integration Constraints
  • Technical Coordination Between Subsystems

02 / HIGH VOLTAGE

High-Voltage Systems & Electrical Integration

Considering electrical requirements within the complete system architecture.

High-voltage system integration requires an understanding of interfaces, physical constraints, and the safety requirements applicable to the project.

Architecture decisions must account for the mechanical environment, associated components, and validation needs.

Areas of Expertise

  • High-Voltage System Architecture
  • Electrical Component Integration
  • Electrical-to-Mechanical System Interfaces
  • Packaging, Accessibility & Protection Constraints
  • Support for Verification & Validation Requirements

03 / ENERGY STORAGE

Battery Integration & Energy Storage

Integrating energy storage as a system, not an isolated component.

Integrating a battery into a vehicle or specialized equipment involves mechanical, electrical, and thermal interactions.

Packaging, mounting, protection, cooling, and serviceability requirements directly influence design decisions.

Areas of Expertise

  • Energy Storage System Architecture & Integration
  • Battery Mechanical Packaging & Interfaces
  • Integration Constraint Analysis
  • Thermal & Accessibility Considerations
  • Prototype Engineering & Validation Support

04 / THERMAL

Thermal Management

Understanding the thermal interactions that influence system behavior.

The performance of electrified systems depends in part on their thermal environment.

Heat management must be considered throughout system architecture, sizing, component placement, and validation planning.

Areas of Expertise

  • Thermal Analysis & Simulation
  • Cooling & Heat Transfer Studies
  • Thermal Interface Integration
  • Thermal Considerations for Batteries & Electrical Components
  • Correlation Between Numerical Results & Test Data, When Available

05 / BMS & CONTROLS

Battery Management & Control Systems

Connecting control functions to system requirements.

Battery Management Systems (BMS) and control functions play a central role in the operation of energy storage systems.

Their integration requires an understanding of electrical interfaces, available data, and functional requirements.

Areas of Expertise

  • Battery Management System (BMS) Integration
  • Control System Interfaces
  • Functional & Integration Requirements
  • Coordination Between Components, Signals & System Functions
  • Verification & Validation Support

06 / CHARGING

Charging System Integration

Aligning charging interfaces with the overall vehicle architecture.

Charging system integration requires consideration of electrical interfaces, physical packaging, communication requirements, and application-specific constraints.

These elements must fit within the broader architecture of the electrified system.

Areas of Expertise

  • Charging Component & Interface Integration
  • Electrical Architecture Considerations
  • Functional & Communication Interfaces
  • Packaging & Accessibility Constraints
  • Support for Validation Planning

APPROACH / PROCESS

An Integrated Approach, From Digital to Physical

Electrification brings together multiple engineering disciplines that must advance in coordination.

A thermal constraint can influence mechanical packaging. An electrical requirement can change the system architecture. A physical test can reveal behavior that needs to be reflected in numerical models.

Involt's approach aims to maintain continuity between disciplines and throughout the development process.
