Current Trends in Vehicle Driveline Modeling and Simulation Richard Jacobson Dan Kedziorek
Driveline analysis is an important part of the vehicle design process The tool for driveline analysis depends on the application Several driveline analysis programs will be discussed with various levels of compelxity Make comparisons and help select the right tool Introduction
Description of a Vehicle Driveline Reasons for Driveline Simulation Descriptions of Selected Simulations Conclusions Topics
Description of a Vehicle Driveline ADVISOR2002 Driveline Diagram
Evaluate Vehicle Performance Top Speed, Acceleration, Fuel consumption, Cross-Country Speed (truck/SUV), Shifting, Emissions, Handling, Vibration Evaluate Vehicle Mobility Top Speed, Acceleration, Fuel consumption, Cross-Country Speed, Shifting, Emissions, Speed on Slopes, Obstacle Crossing Reasons for Driveline Simulation
Propulsion System Performance Simulation (TARDEC in-house program) System for Computer Aided ANalysis (SCAAN) from Allison Transmission ADVISOR2002 National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) Ricardo Libraries for MSC Easy5 from RICARDO GT-SUITE from Gamma Technologies Powertrain Control Research Laboratory (PRCL) University of Wisconsin-Madison Several simulations
Developed at TARDEC Low Resolution Limited performance analysis Acceleration slope performance fuel consumption Propulsion System Performance Simulation
High resolution Extensive input and output Graphical User Interface Customizable (built on MatLab) Detailed output ADVISOR2002
Many pre-built components Graphical User Interface Takes some work to learn Customizable (can link to MatLab) Extensive outputs Easy5 Ricardo Libraries
A service provided by Allison Transmission Low resolution Limited Performance Analysis Acceleration Slope performance System for Computer Aided ANalysis SCAAN
Custom build simulations Has provided driveline simulations to the Army for the following: HMMWV M916/M870 M1A1 M2A2 Powertrain Control Research Laboratory
High resolution Highly detailed engine characteristics Graphical User Interface Can be coupled with CFD code and SIMULINK User code can be incorporated Gamma Technologies GT-SUITE
Different levels of fidelity Different things simulated What does it all mean There are many different tools Can help speed development of advanced drivelines Future Work Increase use of Easy5 Ricardo Libraries Advance the state of driveline simulation at TARDEC Conclusions
