The recent technological advances related to embedded systems, and the increased requirements of Electric Vehicle (EV) industry, lead evolution design validation methodologies applied complex in order a product that respects defined according its performance, safety, reliability. This research paper presents methodology, based on hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) approach, including software platform ...

Auxiliary power units (APUs) are widely used for electric power generation in various types of electric vehicles, improvements in fuel economy and emissions of these vehicles directly depend on the operating point of the APUs. In order to balance the conflicting goals of fuel consumption and emissions reduction in the process of operating point choice, the APU operating point optimization probl...

This paper proposes a control strategy for a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) which is grounded on a one-dimensional distributed parameter model. This first principles model for the propagation of the temperature variations accounts for spatially distributed heat generation (due to oxidation of reductants). As is discussed, heat generation can be regarded as equivalent inlet temperature variatio...

In this paper we demonstrate the potential of combining electric hybridization with a dual-fuel natural gas-Diesel engine. We show that carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced to 43 gram per kilometer with a subcompact car on the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). The vehicle is operated in charge-sustaining mode, which means that all energy is provided by the fuel. The result is obtained by ha...

Despite the high thermal efficiency achieved by modern heavy-duty diesel engines, over 40% of energy contained in fuel is wasted as heat either cooling or exhaust gases. By recovering part energy, overall engine increases and pollutant emissions are reduced. Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems considered a favourable candidate technology to recover gas waste heat, because their simplicity small...

Hybrid electric vehicles that can combine the advantages of traditional and new energy have become optimal choice at present in face increasingly stringent fuel consumption restrictions emission regulations. Range-extended hybrid an important research topic because their high mixing degree simple transmission system. A compact vehicle is object this study range-extended system developed. The de...

Hybrid and fully electric vehicles are becoming more common as a response to rising fuel prices and greenhouse considerations. While the benefits of electrification on urban air quality have been studied quite widely, financial assessments of the various alternative vehicle forms are less common, particularly for Australian driving conditions. The aim of this paper is therefore to identify the ...

A comprehensive study on the effects of photochemical aging exhaust emissions from a vehicle equipped with gasoline direct injection engine when operated over seven different driving cycles was assessed using an oxidation flow reactor. Both primary and secondary aerosol production were measured Federal Test Procedure (FTP), LA92, New European Driving Cycle (NEDC), US06, Highway Fuel Economy (HW...

As an effective measure to solve the dilemma of urban energy consumption and economic development, new demonstration city (NEDC) policy in China could greatly promote development industry economy. This study aims explore how NEDC effectively promotes growth land use efficiency (ULUE), essential indicator through industrial structure. Based on panel data 285 Chinese cities during 2003–2019, this...
