Analyze vehicle Models using ADVISOR Tool

AIM: To analyze range of vehicle in the ‘EV_defaults_in’ file using default parameters and with cargo weight increased to 500kg. To analyze range of vehicle in the ‘EV_defaults_in’ file with above parameters but with a different battery pack. To perform Gradability test with ‘PRIUS_Jpn_defaults_in’…

AIM: To study and compare HEV and PEV models from Powertrain Blockset and analyze the results. OBJECTIVE: To differentiate between mapped and dynamic model of engine, motor and generator and learn switching the model variant.  To study the calculation of miles per gallon of the model and understand the factors considered…

AIM: To know the types of power converter circuits employed in electric and hybrid electric vehicles.    To calculate EV steady-state speed for given constraints. To refer to the blog: Induction Versus DC brushless motors by Wally Rippel, Tesla  and explain in brief about the author’s…

AIM: To Modify the model ‘Speed control of a DC motor using BJT H-bridge’ such that armature current doesn’t shoot up when motor changes direction from forward to reverse.  To compare ‘The Four-Quadrant Chopper DC Drive (DC7) block’ with H-bridge model. To make a suitable EV model using…

AIM: To calculate the energy required for braking for a defined driving cycle. To understand why electric motor can’t develop braking torque at high speed similar to starting and how electric and mechanical brakes are coordinated.  To plot contour of given motor speed, torque and efficiency values using a MATLAB…

AIM: To calculate the push/pull force and power required for the vehicle that tows Aircrafts in runways and design an appropriate powertrain. The following points have to be addressed: Search and list out the total weight of various types of aircrafts.  Is there any difference between ground speed and air speed? …
