Hybrid Development PlatformThe core innovation of the AVL Hybrid Development Platform is the ability to integrate the tasks of the hardware-in-the-loop test bed for control units with the highly dynamic proving of the mechanical and electrical drive component under service conditions. | On the electronic control unit test beds individual or several units are linked with the appropriate simulation models, thus enabling the validation of the individual functions and communication of the control unit network as well as verification of the diagnosis and a basic application. | | On the component test beds only the internal combustion engine, the electric motor or the battery system with the related control units are really mounted one at a time, while the rest of the hybrid vehicle is simulated under service conditions. | | On powertrain test beds, several subsystems such as internal combustion engine, transmission and differential are mounted. In this way the battery systems in the vehicles can be replaced by a battery simulator, thus enabling the testing various energy management strategies. | | On the chassis dynamometer the complete hybrid vehicle is mounted and its thermal and acoustic behavior examined as well as the exhaust gas behavior in the legal driving cycles. |
BenefitsThe AVL Hybrid Technolgy enables the shifting of integration, optimization and validation tasks to earlier phases of hybrid vehicle development projects, thus improving development quality and reducing development time. The platform supports the optimization of performance, consumption and emission of hybrid vehicles, as well as their driveability.
