Abstract: A hub assembly for construction of a fan includes a hub plate having a front face, a rear face, and an annular surface extending between the front face and the rear face. The hub plate defines a hub assembly axis extending through the front face and the rear face which is configured to coincide with the fan axis. The hub assembly further includes a plurality of elongated root sections that are circumferentially spaced apart and extend radially from the annular surface. The elongated root sections have a substantially circular cross-section. The hub plate and the plurality of elongated spokes are unitarily formed.

Abstract: An energy storage device cooling system includes a housing, at least one energy storage device within the housing, and a coolant circuit including a first flow portion extending through the housing, the coolant circuit configured to supply coolant for heat exchange with the at least one energy storage device. The energy storage device cooling system also includes a chiller system including: a coolant supply, a heat exchanger, and an outlet in fluid communication with the first flow portion. The energy storage device cooling system also includes a controller configured to alter a function of the chiller system when a sensed temperature does not exceed a first temperature threshold.

Abstract: A heat exchanger adapted to be coupled with a platform is disclosed. The heat exchanger comprises two or more core units having an upper surface and a lower surface, the lower surface of each core unit being fixed to the platform. The heat exchanger further includes a plate disposed along the upper surface of the core units, the plate having a plurality of bend enhancement regions and a plurality of holes, each bend enhancement region being placed at a predetermined distance from the nearest adjacent holes, and a plurality of spacers interposed between the plate and the upper surface to couple the plate to the upper surface, the plurality of spacers adapted to provide offset between the plate from the core units. During operation of the heat exchanger, each bend enhancement region is configured to facilitate flexibility of the plate to accommodate any uneven expansion of the core units.
