AIM: To Use Of The Advisor Tool For Simulation.
Objectives:
Introduction;
Advisor Tool, Developed In November 1994 By National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Allows User To Simulate And Analyze Conventional, Advanced, Light And Heavy Vehicles, Including Hybrid Electrical And Fuel Cell Vehicles. The Tool Allows User To Assess The Effect Of Changes In The Vehicle Components ( Such As Motor, Batteries, Catalytic Converter, Climate Control System) And Other Modifications That Might Affect Fuel Economy, Performance , Or Simulink .

How To Start ADVISOR TOOL
Advisor Tool Have The Three Windows There Are The As Follows
Q1: 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.
ANS:
First, Loading Ev_Default_ In From The Drop-Down Menu And Changing Parallel_ Default To Ev_Defaults _In From Vehicle Input Window
The Distance Traveled By The Vehicle In 1 Drive Cycle Is 17.8km
Drive Cycle Count-2
After Pressing The Run Button, The Simulation Will Start And It Will Show The Results In A New Window.
The Distance Traveled By The Vehicle In 2 Drive Cycle Is 35.5 Km
Drive Cycle Count-3
After Pressing The Run Button, The Simulation Will Start And It Will Show The Results In A New Window.
THE DISTANCE TRAVELED BY THE VEHICLE IN 3 DRIVE CYCLE IS 41.4 Km
After 3 drive cycles, if we increase the drive cycle to 3,4,5,6 there is no changes in the distance traveled by the vehicle is same that is 41.4
So, observed in this task the distance travelled by the vehicle is lag than the 45 km
Q:2 In the above case, try changing the battery capacity and repeat the simulation.
ans:
Energy storage system with 26 modules and 2 drive cycle
After changing the drive cycle to 2 click on run button.
The total distance travelled is = 35.5 km
Energy storage system with 26 modules and 3 drive cycles
After changing the drive cycle to 3 click on run button.
The total distance travelled is = 42.7 km
Energy storage system with 27 modules and 2 drive cycle
After changing the drive cycle to 2 click on run button.
The total distance travelled is = 35.5 km
Energy storage system with 27 modules and 3 drive cycles
After changing the drive cycle to 3 click on run button.
The total distance travelled is = 44.8 km
Energy storage system with 28 modules and 2 drive cycle
After changing the drive cycle to 2 click on run button.
The total distance travelled is = 35.5 km
Energy storage system with 28 modules and 3 drive cycles
After changing the drive cycle to 3 click on run button.
The total distance travelled is = 44.8 km
Observation:
With 2 drive cycles
Energy storage system distance travelled
26 35.5
27 35.5
28 35.5
With 3 drive cycles
Energy storage system distance travelled
26 42.7
27 44.8
28 46.3
Battery modules 28 and with 3 drive cycle, the distance traveled is 46.3 km.
Q:-3 Perform gradeability test with PRIUS_Jpn_defaults_in file
Compare your results in table and conclude.
Ans:
Select “Prius_JPN_default_in’ file from the load file option to load the Prius model
Hit continue and select the grade options to open the grade test options in this we need to change the option which will include both fuel and energy storage system, hence we will select all systems to enable and in basic parameters the speed of the vehicle can be controlled we need to change the speed from 5- 35 mph with the increment of 5mph to check the gradeability at different speeds.
After running the Prius model with different speeds, we can check the gradeability percentage, we need to take the values at different speeds and tabulate the information below.
With 5mph
With 10 mph
With 15 mph
With 20 mph
With 25 mph
With 30 mph
With 35 mph
SPEED (MPH) TIME DUREATION GRADAEABILITY DISTANCE TRAVELED
5 10 sec 32.8 % 17.8
10 10sec 30.3% 17.8
15 10 sec 24.4% 17.8
20 10 sec 19.8% 17.8
25 10 sec 16.5% 17.8
30 10 sec 14.7% 17.8
35 10 sec 13% 17.8
Form the above table, we can see that the gradeability decreases with increase in speed the maximum gradeability during 5mph and lowest during 35mph
