Abstract

A thermal model for the CPES IPEM Gen. II is presented. The selected approach is the simulation of the thermal behavior of an experimental IPEM testbed using the 1D finite difference method. An equivalent electrical network representation of the thermal behavior of the IPEM is developed using a 1D finite approach. The SABER circuit simulation tool is used to verify the behavior of our network model and compare its results with previously acquired temperature measurements from the experimental testbed. Both experimental and simulated responses are presented and compared.
