Data Sheets based Design of an Energy Efficient Powertrain of Electric Vehicles

In this paper a method is presented, which is used to configure an energy efficient powertrain of electric vehicles at an early stage of development. The method enables a loss estimation of the whole powertrain based on free accessible data sheets of the components. First of all, the main components in the powertrain are analysed. The analysis of the power losses will help to find those degrees of…
