DIDACTICAL PLATFORM FOR MULTI-MOTOR SOLUTIONS IN ELECTRIC VEHICLES

Abstract

For electric vehiclepowertrains,many activities are performed using simulation of different components and sub-systemsand the research and teachingprocess uses successfullydifferenttools.Followingthis way, expensive physical elementsare avoided,and multiple configurationscould be studied,beforegoing to the next step.To capitalize on the virtual results, aphysical testisnecessary, even if itis performed on a reduced scale. Thispaper presentsa didactical platformfor multi-motor solutions inelectric vehicles, aplatform which can serve alsofor research activities related to analysisand control of electric powertrainswith at least two motors.
