... specifications of the two wheeler are mentioned below, which is a 2 stroke, 60cc engine. Hence the BLDC Motor with maximum power 500W, 48V, with a rotor diameter of 24.5cm and weight of 5.5kg specifications is selected to match with ICE power and torque.In the Table 1 the specifications of the two wheeler considered for (Scooty Es) testing is mentioned. ...Similar publications
The inevitable non-uniform temperature distribution across a large number of thermoelectric modules can cause reduced output power of the automotive exhaust thermoelectric generator (AETEG). In order to achieve accurate tracking of maximum power point for an AETEG, a distributed thermo-electric energy recovery system is proposed consisting of sever...
This paper deals with vehicle lightweighting, as a strategy to help attain sustainability in the automotive industry by facilitating improved fuel economy. We reviewed innovative materials appropriate for the manufacturing of low-carbon vehicles (LCVs), such as advanced high-strength steel (AHSS), aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, as well as novel...
SI engines are installed widely in small aircrafts as they have good fuel economy. Currently, these SI engines are fueled with gasoline, although their safety can be improved if kerosene is used. However, the combustion performance of kerosene cannot fulfil the requirements due to the differences in physicochemical properties. This study investigat...
div class="section abstract"> In passenger car development, extreme ICE downsizing trends have been observed over the past decade. While this comes with fuel economy benefits, they are often obtained at the expense of Brake Mean Effective Pressure (BMEP) rise time in transient engine response. Through advanced control strategies, the use of Fully V...
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) has been used in commercial and passenger vehicles to increase safety, comfort and fuel economy. Its role is to maintain a cruising speed and, in the encounter with a slow vehicle, adapt its speed, keeping a safe distance, forming a platooning. In this scenario, the approach phase occurs, with exchanges between the spe...

... There are several types of batteries, but lithium-ion is the most commonly used because of its high current and power capability. A motor converts electrical energy to kinetic energy in the form of vehicle movement and sometimes be used as a generator for charging the battery in a hybrid vehicle scenario [10]. The types of motors used in EVs are brushless DC (BLDC) motors, induction motors, and phase motors. ...
... Therefore, future studies should investigate the effect of throttle curve manipulation on the real initial movement of an electric vehicle. The effect of different terrain on the performance of BLDC motors is also an interesting parameter to be investigated, as has been demonstrated by a previous study [10]. ...
This research aims to develop a low-cost portable throttle curve manipulator for a smooth initial movement of an electric vehicle. The hardware is mostly made up of an Arduino and a pulse width modulation (PWM)-to- direct current (DC) converter, which can be easily installed in electric vehicle. The manipulator produces a throttle output curve based on the current throttle input. The suitable throttle output curve is investigated in two stages. First, the four throttle curve types are compared based on motor vibration change and total energy usage during initial movement. They are none, linear, exponential, and polynomial curve types with a delay of 1 s. Then, in the second stage, the delay is varied from 0.5 to 2.5 s. The result shows that the linear throttle curve output with a delay of 1 s produces is appropriate to refine the initial movement of an electric vehicle compared to the polynomial and exponential curve types. The brushless DC electric (BLDC) motor vibration change decreases from 148.75 Hz to 107.45 Hz and total energy usage decreases from 90.64 joules to 87.23 joules. Therefore, the research concludes that the low-cost portable throttle curve manipulator can be developed using a linear throttle output curve with a delay of 1 s.
