Week-3 Challenge: ADVISOR Tool

NNomesh Dilip Rane6 Apr 2022

AIM: To used the advisor tools for simulations .

OBJECTIVES :

1. For EV_defaults_in file, if cargo mass is 500 kg with all other default conditions, can the vehicle travel for 45 km with FTP drive cycle? Conclude your observations.

2. In the above case, try changing the battery capacity and repeat the simulation.

3. Perform gradeability test with PRIUS_Jpn_defaults_in file .Compare your results in table and conclude.

INTRODUTIONS TO ADVISOR TOOL:

Advanced Vehicle Simulator (ADVISOR)—the US Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) ADVISOR written in the MATLAB/Simulink environment and developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. ADVISOR provides the vehicle engineering community with an easy-to-use, flexible, yet robust and supported analysis package for advanced vehicle modeling.

Benifits by using advisor tool

1: It is primarily used to quantify the fuel economy, the performanceand the emissions of vehicles that use alternative technologies including fuel cells, batteries, electric motors, and internal combustion engines in hybrid (i.e. multiple power sources) configurations.

2: It excels at quantifying the relative change that can be expected due to the implementation of technology compared to a baseline scenario.

3: learn about how to coventional electric vehicals can loss the energy throught their drivetrains.

4: evaluate the energy management strategy for the hybrid fuel converter .

How to starts the advisor tool

Launch the matlab and set the defaults folder advisor .
Now command window of matab type the advisor .
A new window will be open set the matric for unit starts the advisor.
It will launch the new window.

Q;1. For EV_defaults_in file, if cargo mass is 500 kg with all other default conditions, can the vehicle travel for 45 km with FTP drive cycle? Conclude your observations.

1: Now changing the cargo mass of 500 kg .

2: change the total mass of vehicals can be seen.

3: clicking the contionue buttons after the simulation parameter will be pop -up.

4; The simulations parameter window will be change drive cycle CYC-fTP which is selecting from the dropdown menu .

5: below that the cycle set the drive cycle .

6: after press the run buttons the new simulation window will be open .

Distance travels by 1 drive cycle is 11 km/hr used almost 60 % of soc .

increasing the number of drive -cycle no - 2

result with 2 drive-cycle .

Distance travels by drive cycle 2 is 22 km/hr used almost 80% of soc

increasing the number of drive cycle 3

result with 3 drive-cycle .

the distance travels by 3 drive cycle is 25.6 km/hr. used almost 100 % of soc .

minimum distance travel by car is 11 km at CYC- FTP drive cycle 1 wheres the maximum distance travels by car is 25.6 in 3 drive cycle almost used 100 % of soc .when we increse in number of drive cycle their resulting will be incease in distance travels by vehicals above 45 km .

2. In the above case, try changing the battery capacity and repeat the simulation.

The vehical input window we will change battery capacity and weight of battery from energy storage device .

2: # of mode v Nom discribed battery capacity from the first block wen will set the battery capcity and result to change in no of battery and voltage & weight of battery .

3:New simulations parmeter window will be open and change the number of drive cycle and run the simulations.

4:after complete the simulations observed the chnages in the distance travels by vehicals .

5:we can repeat the simulations by change the battery modules and capacity .

(1)- Energy storage system of 26 module with 2 drive cycle.

Results :

2)- Energy storage system of 27 module with 2 drive cycle.

Results :

3)- Energy storage system of 27 module with 2 drive cycle.

Results :

5)- Energy storage system of 50 module with 4 drive cycle .

change in number of battery module from 25 to 50 as shown below .

result :

5)- Energy storage system of 48 module 5 drive cycle. .

result :

Thus we can see that while changing the number of drive cycle result will change in distance travels by vehical . thus we can reduce the number of battery pack resulting lesser distance travels by vehicals.

3. Perform gradeability test with PRIUS_Jpn_defaults_in file .Compare your results in table and conclude.
