Week-3 Challenge: ADVISOR Tool
1.
The drive train configuration is chosen to be EV and the cargo mass is set to 500kg.
and the drive cycle is chosen to be FTP and simulation is run.
The vehicle can travel a distance of 11.04miles which is approximately 17.7 kms.
2. Now the battery capacity is changed to Pb MC_AC where the nominal voltage is 308V.
and simulation is run.
The distance travelled is 3.4 miles or 5.47 km .
3. The vehicle model has been changed to Toyota prius where the mass of the vehicle is 918 kg. Maximum power is 43KW and efficiency is 39%.
and gradeability test is carried for 55mph for duration of 10s is 1.7%.
Repeat the test for different speeds and different time duration. The value of speeds and gradability is shown in the table.
| Speed(mph) | Duration(s) | Gradability(%) |
| 55 | 10 | 1.7 |
| 40 | 10 | 2.5 |
| 30 | 10 | 2.5 |
