Efficient analysis of electric vehicles

The automotive development started with the invention of the first steam-powered vehicle in the 17th century. Ever since motorized vehicles captivate and excite millions of people spread over the entire planet. However, increased consciousness towards environmental concerns and other factors led to the development of vehicles that entirely or partly operate using alternative fuels (e.g., HEV, BEV, PHEV, FCEV). Nevertheless, the alternative power trains of these vehicles need to meet the many demands from various stakeholders (passengers, OEMs, governments, public organizations, retailers, insurance companies, etc.). Hence, extensive testing becomes an obvious requirement. In our new whitepaper, we elaborate on the challenges of testing alternative power trains and particularly investigate the topic of efficient analysis of electric vehicles.

 

Efficient analysis of electric vehicles

To give the analysis of electric vehicles its well-deserved attention, we prepared a comprehensive whitepaper. In the document, our experts point out and compare existing testing standards, summarize inherent challenges, and determine the ideal solution. Thereby, we highlight the determination of efficiency during on-road tests and test benches and explain the synchronous calculation and recording of all relevant input channels including power parameters for battery, inverter, and multiple motor phases. Moreover, we present a portable, flexible and battery-powered DAQ system that meets the strict requirements for the analysis of electric vehicles. Finally, our experts demonstrate the gapless and state-of-the-art recording of dynamic processes with synchronous sample rates up to 10 MS/s/ch.
