Do you trust your vehicle’s range prediction? • In case of battery electric vehicles: heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system has a major impact on the vehicle’s range 87 km 122 km Δ17 km Δ34 km 70 km 88 km 28 km 22 km +6 km (+21,4%) -5 km (-22,7%) NEVVE 2017 || Dipl.-Ing.

Motivation • Model Overview • Methodology of Optimization • Simulation Results • Outlook • Global Research Goals Validation of a 5-Zone-Car-Cabin Model to Predict the Energy Saving Potentials of a Battery Electric Vehicle’s HVAC system NEVVE 2017 || Dipl.-Ing. Kurt Kruppok
No trust in the battery electrical vehicle’s range range anxiety is still widespread An efficient use of the available energy is necessary. Knowledge of the overall energy demand is required • Energy loads of propulsion and auxiliaries are route dependent The heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system can be the largest auxiliary load. Range of BEVs significantly reduces when the HVAC system is activated during bad conditions Why is it necessary to know the conditions in the car cabin? NEVVE 2017 || Dipl.-Ing. Kurt Kruppok
