| Description | This non-credit course is divided into two parts and provides fundamental knowledge of the creation of state-of-the-art EVs. Topics will include: EV powertrain architecture, design of EV powertrain components based on vehicle dynamics and drive cycle, different electric motor technologies, power electronic converters, control of the powertrain, EV powertrain testing, battery energy storage and charging.
The course will use case studies and examples from commercially available EVs and provide learners with the opportunity to use software such as Microsoft Excel, Matlab/Simulink and Ansys Motor-CAD.
The market for electric vehicles (EVs) is growing due to inherent benefits such as lower operating costs, higher energy efficiency and superior driving performance, new use cases and environmental improvements. Automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers have invested significantly towards electrification of the automotive sector. There is a big effort from the automotive OEMs to release more EVs into the market in the next few years. Various nations and provinces have put forward aggressive targets to replace a big market share of conventional IC engine based vehicles with plug-in EVs. | | |
