🌱 Reducing Carbon Footprint in Automotive Development with Simulation Did you know that leveraging simulation in automotive development can significantly cut down CO2 emissions? While both simulation and physical tests are necessary in automotive development, leveraging simulation as much as possible can significantly reduce the overall carbon footprint of a project. The integration of advanced simulations can streamline the development process, reduce material consumption waste, and optimize designs for better efficiency and lower emissions in the final product. Here are the key benefits: 🚗 Reduction in Physical Prototypes: Simulations allow for extensive testing and validation without the need for multiple physical prototypes. This reduces the carbon footprint associated with raw material use, manufacturing and transporting these prototypes. 🌿 Energy Efficiency and Energy Use: Running a detailed vehicle simulation might consume several hundred kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity. In contrast, wind tunnel testing, crash testing, and other energy-intensive tests can consume thousands of kWh when considering all associated activities (setup, execution, and analysis). Therefore, replacing multiple physical tests with simulations can significantly reduce overall energy consumption and the correlated CO2 footprint. 🔍 Early Issue Detection: Simulations enable early detection and correction of design flaws, which can lead to more efficient and sustainable final products. Improved aerodynamics, weight reduction, and optimized battery design will contribute to lower emissions from the vehicles over lifetime. 📉 To put in perspective the Real-world Impact: up to 31 tons of CO2 savings* Material Savings: Up to 9.25 tons of CO2 reduction by minimizing prototype production. Energy Savings: Potential reduction of 22.5 tons of CO2 by cutting down on energy-intensive physical tests. Total Savings: Approximately 31.75 tons of CO2 per project. * Assumptions: Prototype Reduction: Reduction from 10 to 5 physical prototypes per project. Material Requirement: Each prototype requires 1 ton of steel. Energy Consumption for Physical Testing: 10,000 kWh per physical prototype. Energy Consumption for Simulations: 1,000 kWh per simulation, with 5 simulations replacing 5 physical prototypes. Simulation Hours: 100 hours per simulation, assuming an average power consumption of 10 kW per hour. CO2 Emissions for Steel Production: 1.85 tons of CO2 per ton of steel. CO2 Emissions for Energy Consumption: 0.5 kg of CO2 per kWh. At Henkel we are committed to Harness the power of simulation and material modeling, to drive innovation with sustainable solutions for E-mobility and EV Batteries while significantly reducing its environmental impact.🌍✨ #Sustainability #AutomotiveIndustry #Innovation #Simulation #CarbonFootprintReduction #Henkel
