    Numerical Vehicle Simulation Model Internal Combustion Engine

    Why using a detailed instead of map-based ICE model ?

    Geometry, Cylindernumber and ICE parameters can be varied

    But much higher computational effort

    Mean Value Models

    Realtime capability

    ICE parameters still variable

    Variations must be included in

    neural network training

    Lower accuracy

    Simplification necessary for optimization purposes

    Fast Running Models (FRM)

    Simplified geometries

    Still Good accuracy

    Lower computational effort

    But to slow for optimization

    Optimization Goal

    Minimized fuel consumption for specified driving cycles

    Constraints

    Battery state-of-charge (SOC) at the end of the driving cycle must be equal to the

    reference solutions, otherwise penalty consumption will be added

    Maximum deviation of the driving-cycle of +/- 1 km/hr or +/- 1 second

    At cold ambient conditions (-10C) a specific cabin temperature must be achieved

    after five minutes

    Why using numerical optimization?

    higher degrees of freedom at electro-hybrid powertrains

    High computational effort for the objective

    function calculation

    Development of numerical optimization

    software for continuous parameter variations

    Cooperation with the workgroup for algorithms

    and data structures at the Vienna University of

    Technology

    Combination of metaheuristics (Particle Swarm,

    Genetic Algorithms, Evolutionary Algorithms)

    Model approximation by neural networks

    Conclusions

    For investigations of an electro-hybrid powertrain a comprehensive

    longitudinal model was developed with GT-SUITE and calibrated with

    measurements on the engine test bench and dynamometer

    Using numerical optimization software the operating strategy and

    powertrain components were optimized under different ambient

    conditions and driving cycles

    For the specific driving cycles optimized operating strategies could be

    developed with respect to fuel consumption using numerical optimization

    methods

    the power demand

    Results of optimized strategies with

    similar power demand could be used

    Optimization of real and longer

    driving-cycles

    Segmentation of the driving

    cycles
