Simulation of Hybrid Electric Powertrains
Tesis DYNAware have expanded their field of activity to hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) simulation. The great effort of developments in HEV technology and the associated demand of detailed simulation models have prompted the Munich experts for real-time engine and vehicle simulation to provide a proven and tested product solution. Application areas range from component dimensioning to the investigation and optimisation of driving strategies and sophisticated energy management functions with regard to fuel consumption and driving performance.
The new HEV models have been designed to be used throughout all ECU development phases: from conceptual function design on the Pc to operating tests with hardware-in-the-loop systems. They are based on Tesis DYNAware's engine and drivetrain simulation enDyna in combination with their inhouse powernet library. The powernet library includes a large choice of modules ranging from electric loads to detailed battery models. Various topologies of hybrid electric powertrains from micro- to full hybrid can be configured. The provided driver model is a welcome feature to achieve reproducible and realistic results in user defined driving cycles. Due to the modular architecture in a Matlab/Simulink environment, integration of customer specific modules and adjustments to special requirements are no problem.
