SIMULATION OF POWER TRAIN DESIGN FOR THE EV APPLICATION – A REVIEW

Abstract: A powertrain model is a simulation of the individual components of an electric vehicle propulsion system. It examines the interaction between electric motors, power electronics, batteries, and other auxiliary subsystems. The model uses mathematical equations and algorithms to provide insight into performance, efficiency and behavior. Engineers can use it to evaluate various factors, including battery capacity and engine specifications, and predict performance under various driving conditions. Powertrain models are useful tools for optimizing electric vehicle driving pleasure, energy efficiency and range.
