    In order to study the dynamic characteristics of electric vehicle drive system in the regenerative braking process, the tire torsion characteristics are further coupled on the basis of considering static transmission error, backlash and time?varying meshing stiffness and the electromechanical coupling model of permanent magnet synchronous motor?two stage transmission mechanism?tire is established and verified by experiments. The influence of tire torsional characteristics and regenerative braking torque on the dynamics of the electric drive system is analyzed. The results show that the tire torsional characteristics introduce a new mode into the electric drive system, which changes the first?order mode of the system. Gear continuous impact events of the transmission mechanism occur when the regenerative braking torque is small, and with the increase of regenerative braking torque, the impact events gradually disappear, but the dynamic load of the transmission mechanism increases when the electromagnetic torque is reversed. The research provides theoretical support for dynamic load study and life prediction of the electric drive system.

    In order to accurately and quickly obtain the air?gap flux density waveform, the equivalent magnetic circuit method is used to analyze and calculate the air?gap magnetic field of the inter permanent magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) with a double?layer permanent magnet structure. Considering the influence of the stator slotting effect, the air?gap length is corrected by the improved Carter coefficient. To reduce waveform total harmonics distortions (THD) of air?gap magnetic flux density and torque ripple, a Taguchi method is introduced for multi?objective fast optimization design analysis for the motor cores. The multivariable and multi?objective optimization design process of IPMSM with a double?layer permanent magnet structure is described using finite element simulation analysis and numerical calculation. The analysis shows that the output torque of the optimized double?layer IPMSM is improved by 2%, the torque ripple is reduced by 2.77%, the no?load air?gap magnetic density harmonic distortion rate is reduced by 4.28%. The experiments of the prototype have verified the reliability of the finite element and the validity of the theoretical analysis.

    The performance of high?speed solenoid valve directly affects the characteristics of fuel injection system in high pressure common rail diesel engine. In order to reveal the hybrid excitation mechanism of series and parallel permanent magnet with electromagnetism for the novel high?speed solenoid valve, the effects of series and parallel permanent magnet on the electromagnetic force of the system are analyzed by numerical simulation. Firstly, the simulation model of novel high?speed solenoid valve is established by using ANSYS Maxwell software with its accuracy verified. Then, a simulation is conducted to analyze the effects of series and parallel permanent magnet rings and their interaction on the electromagnetic force of high?speed solenoid valve in full working condition. The results show that the electromagnetic force is positively correlated with the height of parallel permanent magnet ring, and is negatively correlated with the height of series permanent magnet ring. With the increase of driving current, the interaction between the height of series permanent magnet ring and the height of parallel permanent magnet ring gradually weakens.

    Guisheng Chen,Feng Wei,Renxin Xiao,Jingxian Zhang,Zhenjiang Zhang Han Wang
    2021, 43 (8):  1143-1151.  doi: 10.19562/j.chinasae.qcgc.2021.08.004
    Abstract ( 158 )   HTML ( 5 )   PDF (5284KB) ( 221 )   Save

    The influence of different pilot?injection strategies coupled with EGR on the combustion and emission characteristics of diesel/natural gas (DN) dual fuel engine are studied based on the three?dimensional fluid dynamics software. The results show that when the pilot diesel injection ratio (FDIR) is fixed and the pilot diesel injection timing (FDIT) is advanced beyond -10(°)CA ATDC, the burning center of gravity (CA 50) is closer to the top dead center. It is beneficial to reduce CH4, HC, CO and Soot emissions. But the NOx emission is higher than that of single injection and reaches the peak when the FDIT is advanced to -20(°)CA ATDC. When FDIT is advanced to -10(°)CA ATDC, the increase of FDIR has little influence on emission. When FDIT is advanced beyond -10(°)CA ATDC, larger FDIR can keep CH4, HC, CO and Soot emissions at a low level. As the EGR rate increases, the emissions of CH4, HC, CO, and Soot of different pilot?injection strategies are generally increased. When the EGR rate reaches 15%, the FDIT is advanced to -20(°)CA ATDC, and the FDIR is 30%, the emission value of each gas is generally lower than that of the single injection. When the EGR rate reaches 25%, the NOx emission of different pilot?injection strategies is reduced to the lowest level while the CO and Soot emissions exceed that of the single injection.

    Abstract ( 224 )   HTML ( 15 )   PDF (1478KB) ( 368 )   Save

    Vehicle?mounted PEMFCs have obvious current density inconsistencies in a large effective area. Distributed measurement is a common method to study current density distribution. In order to study the key influencing factors of measurement accuracy, models of PCBs and cell components are established in COMSOL to perform finite element numerical simulation. The results show that the assembly pressure in the range of 0.5-3.0 MPa has little influence. Measurement accuracy is greatly reduced when resistance value of the resistance increases from 1 mΩ to 100 mΩ while resistance installation method and the number of segments have limited influence. The conductivities in x and y directions of the bipolar plate have more significant impact and the temperature drift has little influence. Therefore, to improve the measurement accuracy, there is no need to optimize the temperature drift and change the optimal assembly pressure. Resistor with small resistance should be used, choosing resistor installation method and the number of segments according to the needs and bipolar plate with smaller conductivity in x and y directions and larger conductivity in z direction should be selected.

    For the problem that autonomous vehicle trajectory planning control algorithm cannot meet the personalized comfort of occupants, combining natural driving data and occupant comfort requirements, a method for identifying occupants’ personalized comfort is established. Firstly, the subjective comfort evaluation method is determined. Based on the standard ISO2631, frequency domain and time domain weighted filter functions are built. Subjective and objective characteristic parameters of occupant comfort of autonomous vehicles are extracted and the relationship between occupant’s personalized comfort and autonomous vehicle driving planning parameters is identified. Then, a natural driving data acquisition platform is established to collect the driving parameters and subjective and objective parameters that affect comfort. Factor analysis is used to reduce the dimensions of driving parameters to obtain three?way motion (lateral impact, longitudinal acceleration, and vertical vibration), driving risk and efficiency influencing factors. Finally, the weighted analysis method is used to identify the model, and the Kalman filter algorithm is applied to quickly and accurately identify the individual needs of the occupant, and the weighted root?mean?square threshold of comfort is obtained. The identification results show that the correlation between the subjective and objective comfort of the occupant reaches 85.81%; the three?way motion factor has a greater impact on the occupant comfort than the driving risk and efficiency factors; the identification rate of occupant personalized comfort is as high as 93%. The study can provide theoretical support for constructing personalized trajectory planning control algorithm considering occupant comfort.

    Aiming at the cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) problem of nonlinear vehicle platoon with unidirectional communication topology, a distributed model predictive control (DMPC) strategy is proposed in this paper, which ensures the stability of platoon and meets the requirements of vehicle following performance, safety and occupant comfort of each vehicle in the platoon.

Then, the Lyapunov candidate function is constructed by the sum of local cost functions of CACC system, and the sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of vehicle platoon system are proved. Finally, a Carsim/Simulink joint simulation is conducted to analyze the control performance of the algorithm for vehicle platoon with different forms of one?way communication topology in ideal state, followed by a real vehicle test to verify the control performance of the algorithm in a real vehicle conditions of the jitter in perception layer and delay and error in the bottom control layer. Simulation and real vehicle test results show that the control strategy proposed can enable the vehicle platoon fulfill its optimized performances with better robustness to external disturbances.

    The internal cooling system of stator yokeless axial flux motor has eddy current loss, which leads to the reduction of motor efficiency and temperature increase. In this paper, a cooling system of a stator yokeless axial flux motor is modeled with a vehicle hub motor as the research object. Through simulating and analyzing the eddy current loss of the cooling system during the operation of the motor, and performing two?dimensional finite element equivalence of the motor, the mechanism of eddy current loss of fins is further investigated. Based on this, the eddy current loss is optimized from three different perspectives, namely, optimizing the stator tooth shape to reduce the magnetic field strength at the fins, optimizing the fin height through magneto?thermal coupling analysis, and slotting the fins to increase the eddy current path resistance, which finally reduces the eddy current loss to 32.7% of the original one. The experimental tests of the prototype are carried out. The results show that the finite element simulation and experimental test results are consistent and the efficiency of the optimized motor is improved at different speeds, with the efficiency of the optimized motor 3.1% higher than that of the unoptimized motor at 4 000 r/min.

    The vibration characteristic of automobile seat directly affects the ride comfort. In order to comprehensively evaluate the vibration comfort of the seat, the correlation between the objective comfort of the seat and the subjective comfort of the occupant is studied and analyzed in this paper. Firstly, the automobile seat is tested under different excitation amplitudes in the vertical direction. The transmission of vibration from the floor to the human body interface is measured to characterize the dynamic performance of the Seat-occupant Coupling System (SoCS). Then, the relative amplitude estimation method is designed for subjective evaluation, and the subjective-objective correlation analysis is carried out. Finally, a parameter characterizing the vibration isolation performance of the seat is proposed. The results indicate that: (1) The resonance frequency of SoCS becomes lower when the vibration magnitude increases. In addition, the vertical in line FRF and cross axis FRF have strong correlation at the first resonance frequency; (2) The correlation between the subjective evaluation and the objective test is pretty good (the fitting accuracy is 99.05%), which verifies the effectiveness of the amplitude estimation method; (3) The proposed seat vibration isolation performance parameter is in good agreement with the subjective evaluation, which can provide a theoretical basis for the optimization and improvement of the vibration comfort of the automobile seat.
