Better Understand the Relationship between Powertrain System Design
and Its Control Integration While powertrain system design and its
control integration are traditionally divided into two different
functional groups, a growing trend introduces the integration of
more electronics (sensors, actuators, and controls) into the
powertrain system. This has impacted the dynamics of the system,
changing the traditional mechanical powertrain into a mechatronic
powertrain, and creating new opportunities for improved efficiency.
Design and Control of Automotive Propulsion Systems focuses on the
ICE-based automotive powertrain system (while presenting the
alternative powertrain systems where appropriate). Factoring in the
multidisciplinary nature of the automotive propulsion system, this
text does two things-adopts a holistic approach to the subject,
especially focusing on the relationship between propulsion system
design and its dynamics and electronic control, and covers all
major propulsion system components, from internal combustion
engines to transmissions and hybrid powertrains. The book
introduces the design, modeling, and control of the current
automotive propulsion system, and addresses all three major
subsystems: system level optimization over engines, transmissions,
and hybrids (necessary for improving propulsion system efficiency
and performance). It provides examples for developing
control-oriented models for the engine, transmission, and hybrid.
It presents the design principles for the powertrain and its key
subsystems. It also includes tools for developing control systems
and examples on integrating sensors, actuators, and electronic
control to improve powertrain efficiency and performance. In
addition, it presents analytical and experimental methods, explores
recent achievements, and discusses future trends. Comprised of five
chapters containing the fundamentals as well as new research, this
text: Examines the design, modeling, and control of the internal
combustion engine and its key subsystems: the valve actuation
system, the fuel system, and the ignition system Expounds on the
operating principles of the transmission system, the design of the
clutch actuation system, and transmission dynamics and control
Explores the hybrid powertrain, including the hybrid architecture
analysis, the hybrid powertrain model, and the energy management
strategies Explains the electronic control unit and its
functionalities-the software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop
techniques for developing and validating control systems Design and
Control of Automotive Propulsion Systems provides the background of
the automotive propulsion system, highlights its challenges and
opportunities, and shows the detailed procedures for calculating
vehicle power demand and the associated powertrain operating
conditions.
