As one of the important parts of the automobile, the frame bears the mass load of the cab, powertrain and all other parts, and bears the vibration, impact and distortion from the road under different working conditions. If it can meet the performance requirements of the frame, improve the utilization rate of materials and realize the lightweight of the frame, it will be very valuable for engineering use. This paper mainly studies the development strategy design of new energy vehicles integrated with finite volume method. Firstly, this paper analyzes the principle and application of finite volume method, establishes the finite element model of local topology optimization of electric vehicle frame in Hypermesh, and uses genetic algorithm to complete the multi-condition topology optimization of electric vehicle frame in Hypermesh. A three-dimensional model of small electric vehicle frame based on topology optimization results was constructed.
