Abstract
This thesis is concerned with validation of static and dynamic behavior
of electric vehicle drivetrain system (EVDS) with wide-speed range torque
control. In addition to propose a generalize methodology for wide parametric
design and integration of the EVDS for electric vehicles (EVs).
Firstly, for prescribed specifications of the EV, a wide parametric
design procedure is provided for determining the ratings of EVDS components.
The ratings include motor power, torque, speed, and battery capacity; which
consider the maximum velocity and maximum acceleration rate of the vehicle
to achieve the heaviest road conditions. The proposed methodology is then
applied to one reference vehicle (Nissan-leaf 2015 E-car) and a proposed fourpassenger city EV as a practical case studies with detailed calculations. Then,
the static characterization of the designed EVDS is simulated and assessed with
two practical driving cycles i.e. Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule
(UDDS) and highway driving cycle (Artemis MW_130).
Secondly, field-oriented control (FOC) and model predictive control
(MPC) techniques are developed for torque control of the TM to achieve the
commanded tractive force according to the vehicle specifications and the driver
requests. Driving the EV below and above the designed base velocity is
conducted with rotor flux control and field weakening control of the TM,
respectively. In the simulated of the EVDS, the dynamic modeling of the power
plants i.e. vehicle, Li-ion battery, TM and road forces, are considered. The
dynamic behavior of the EVDS of the proposed four-passenger city EV is
analyzed and assessed with the same UDDS driving cycle. The acceptable coincidence between the dynamic performance and the static characteristics
ensures the validity of the proposed methodology.
Finally, a laboratory setup of the EVDS is built from the basic elements
and the conducted control method within the integrated EVDS has been
validated by experimental results. The performance of the EVDS is
experimentally validated by different types of velocity profiles. The
implementation guarantees working at light and heavy loads, multi start-stop
running with different acceleration rates, running at maximum velocity, speed
reversal, and moreover, smooth transition between different operational modes
without any oversizing.
