Electric vehicles offer the capability to recover energy by electric braking and therefore to extend the range. Due to the dynamic axle load shift during brake applications and corresponding brake force distributions, drive train topologies with single front drive and single rear drive have different potentials with regard to recuperation. The axle load shift of a vehicle is significantly influenced...
Due to higher specific power density, longer life time and safer operation, super-capacitors (ultra-capacitors or electric double layer capacitors) are being considered in applications of electric vehicles (EVs). This study deals with design of light electric vehicles or even rail vehicle powered by full or partial pure super-capacitors (SCs). The simulation model of the electric vehicles powered...
In this paper, the energy consumption per distance of a battery electric vehicle (BEV) is comprehensively investigated for various official and gathered real-world drive cycles, including the powertrain's cycle average efficiency. The powertrain component losses are modeled with a high level of detail, and they are functions of both speed and load. It is shown that the difference in calculated drive-cycle...
