This Intelligence Set includes the latest edition of automotive engine cooling systems, plus supplier profiles for Behr, Calsonic, Delphi, Denso, Modine, Valeo and Visteon.

At over 1,500 words longer than just-auto's last edition, this report provides a detailed review of the global market for vehicle engine cooling systems, providing top level market fitment, volume and value forecasts from 2005 to 2016.

Given the current state of the industry, just-auto has completely revised its estimates and forecasts of the OE engine cooling market volumes and values. This report therefore sets out our revised forecasts for engine cooling for passenger car vehicle assembly in North America, Western Europe and Japan from 2005 through to 2016. In addition, and given the sheer volatility of the global economy at present, we have set out an ‘expected-’, ‘best-’ and ‘worst-case’ scenario applied to OE passenger car radiators and engine cooling modules. On balance, we believe this will provide a more realistic framework for our component forecasts.

Our forecasts are not extrapolative but dependent on the underlying drivers of supply and demand. They are largely based on interviews with our extensive international network of industry contacts. This allows us to consider and explain the meaning and implications of industry events.

Report extract: Although hybrids have not really created a substantial change in the heat transfer philosophy of the engine, we asked manufacturers if this technology has created the need for additional product on the electronic side of the system. In an exclusive interview with just-auto, Dr Simon Edwards, director of advanced engineering, Engine Cooling, Behr Group, told us: “Yes, there are additional cooling requirements for battery cooling and power electronics/converter cooling. Li-Ion batteries have an upper temperature limit of around 40º C. High temperatures reduce the lifetime of the battery. Under warm climate conditions the Li-Ion battery therefore has to be cooled with the aid of the air conditioning system. Converter cooling requires a coolant temperature of around 60º C. Therefore so called low-temperature radiators are required in addition to the normal power train radiator.”

Following our market overview in Chapter 1, just-auto’s product fitment forecasts in Chapter 2 predict the market (by volume and value) worldwide (and by major car-producing region) for OE radiator and engine-cooling systems. The chapter includes a four-page Q&A with Behr-Hella Thermocontrol GmbH, a two-page Q&A with Dytech ENSA, summary profiles on the key OE suppliers, worldwide manufacturer shares of the radiator and engine cooling systems markets (2008 % share) and North American and European shares of the cooling systems market.

Chapter 3 reviews the technical advances in engine-cooling systems, defining the parts that make up the system as well as what we can expect to see in tomorrow’s cars. With news on recent innovations from Denso, Webasto, EMP, Behr, Visteon (including their latest internal heat exchanger (IHX) that increases cooling power). There is also a section on thermal management systems for hybrid vehicles.

Chapter 4 sets out profiles of the major manufacturers, namely Behr, Calsonic Kansei, Delphi, Denso, Modine Manufacturing, Valeo and Visteon.

A typical profile contains the following:

Chapter 1: Company dossier - a brief outline of business activity, stock symbol, key executives, financial statistics, customers, and an outlook.
Chapter 2: Worldwide locations - gives the production locations and number of employees.
Chapter 3: Financial Analysis - sales figures, profit, investments, cash flow, depreciation, research and development, and number of employees.
Chapter 4: Competitor analysis - identifies rivals and illustrates market share
Chapter 5: Key events in the company's history
Chapter 6: Analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT).
Chapter 7: Customers - locations of customers are given
Chapter 8: Products - details brands and product ranges
Chapter 9: Product development - recent innovations and product launches.
Chapter 10: Prospects
