In this paper, the development, integration, and analysis of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) using system level virtual testing will be presented. The work will discuss how a Modelica-based Parallel HEV powertrain model developed using MapleSim is integrated into IPG’s industrial vehicle modelling software tool, CarMaker, using the Functional Mockup Interface (FMI) standard; and how, using API commands, virtual testing and analysis was performed with Noesis’s optimisation tool, Optimus. The acausal modelling of the HEV powertrain was done using Modelica 3.2.1, allowing the flow of energy to be inferred from the operating characteristics and controller design. The multidomain model uses components from the electrical and mechanical libraries, including commercialised library components, from the MapleSim Driveline Component Library and the MapleSim Battery Component Library.
IEA report shows nuclear sector booming despite costs
Delays, in the UK, over approval of nuclear, seem to be the major issue (such as for SMRs). The report is about market finance and does not address...
