MODELLING OF HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLES IN MODELICA FOR VIRTUAL PROTOTYPING
Jonas Hellgren · 2002
This paper presents a Modelica library made for the simulation of Hybrid Electrical Vehicles (HEVs). The library consists of vehicle models, component models and models of surrounding systems. An overview of the models within the library is given and some models are described more in detail. The major purpose of the vehicle models is to predict vehicle characteristics, especially fuel consumption, for a given vehicle and driving cycle. Modelica has been found useful for the simulation of HEVs.
