OBJECTIVES
■ To develop a drive cycle for a city road (i.e., metropolitan
city) on analysing the road conditions and traffic
situations on working and non working days.
■ To investigate the properties of the two types of vehicle
such as electric vehicle and hybrid electric vehicle with
respect to the drive cycle.
■ To design a model of EV and HEV using software(such
as MATLAB) and simulating to obtain results.
METHODOLOGY
Constucting a drive cycle for BEV and HEV of a selected region.
1. fuel consumption,
2. electric vehicle autonomy and
3. polluting emissions.
TYPES OF DRIVING CYCLES
■ There are two types of driving cycles:
1. Transient driving cycles
It involve many changes, representing the constant speed changes typical
of on-road driving.
Example: FTP 75 ( Federal Test Procedure)
2. Modal driving cycles
It involve protracted periods at constant speeds.
Example: NEDC( New Eurpoean Driving Cycle)
VEHICLE MODEL
aerodynamic drag
motor efficiency
mass of the vehicle etc..
We can do sensitivity analysis and find the critical factor of the vehicle
design and reduce the effect of the factor.
Types of resistance considered for a vehicle:
Air resistance
Rolling resistance
Gradient resistance
Battery model
Inverter model
Electric machine model
Driver model
■ In closed loop model ,energy and sensitivity analysis can be done and
also we can improve the battery performance and regenerative braking
efficiency.
DRIVE CYCLE DEVELOPMENT
Select the route in which the driving cycle has to be developed based
on the application of the drive cycle.
Divide each driving cycle data collected from the vehicle into small
micro-trips.
Create micro trip data, dividing the total distance covered into a few
segments.
Micro trip data can be generated by dividing the data into start-stop
segments, equal time segments, or speed range segments.
DRIVE CYCLE CONSTRUCTION
In each micro trip data, remove odd data sets and derive a general
pattern.
