Electric Vehicle Designing, Modelling and Simulation

This project focuses on a step by step design procedure which is the estimation of the ratings of different components in an Electric Vehicle powered by vector controlled Induction Machine. Physical modeling approach has been used for vehicle modelling to improve the modeling efficiency. Regenerative braking control is also been employed at the time of deceleration so that the kinetic energy is not wasted as heat, but some amount of it can be recovered and used for charging the battery, which can increase the Electric vehicle range. A dynamic model of the electric vehicle is modelled and simulated using Matlab/Simulink and Sim PowerSystem/Sim Driveline toolbox.
