Calculation for Motor Power
Mass (M): Total Mass of Vehicle (Inclusive of Driver, Body, Frame or Chassis, Power Train & Other Components) that has to
be driven by an electric motor of an EV. A typical car may require more than 770 kilograms of steel, 180 kilograms of iron,
110 kilograms of plastics, 80 kilograms of aluminum, and 60 kilograms of rubber, as well as, less significant amounts of
different materials. The total mass of an average car may be about 1500 kilograms. Addition of 400 Kg Passenger Weight &
100 Kg Luggage will give total considerable weight for motor as 2000 Kg

Gear Ratio (G): Gear ratio is simply the leverage that you have in a set of gears. It is the ratio of an output to the input. It can
be represented in usually 3 parameters: number of teeth (size of gear), force (torque), and velocity (rpm). Major use of
gears is to transmit torque or to enhance torque. Geared devices can change the speed, torque, and direction of a power
source. Gears almost always produce a change in torque, creating a mechanical advantage, through their gear ratio, and
thus may be considered a simple machine.

Transmission Efficiency: It is the ratio of the power received over a transmission path to the power transmitted. Simply it can
be defined as the ratio of the output to the input power of a system.

Coefficient of Rolling Resistance (Crr): The coefficient of rolling friction is the indication of how great the rolling resistance is
for a given normal force between the wheel and the surface upon which it is rolling. This ratio is based on the Standard
Friction Equation.

Calculation for Motor Power
Vehicle Frontal Area (Af): It is frontal area of vehicle which is exposed to aerodynamic drag For automobiles and many other
objects, Vehicle Frontal Area is the projected frontal area of the vehicle. .

Wheel Radius (Rw): The radius of a wheel measured from center to tread.

Velocity (V): Velocity at which user want to drive the vehicle.

Gradient (α): Gradient is an inclined part of a road or railway; a slope. It is Measured in terms of degree of inclination.

Vehicle's Drag Coefficient (Cd): In fluid dynamics, the drag coefficient is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify
the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment, such as air or water. It is used in the drag equation in which a
lower drag coefficient indicates the object will have less aerodynamic or hydrodynamic drag. The drag coefficient is always
associated with a particular surface area

Controller Selection

There are two basic types of controllers: electronic and


electromechanical.

•Electronic units are very sophisticated and include features such


as soft starting and variable frequency drives. Electronic units can be
programmed to respond to system inputs and pre-set running
conditions.

•Electromechanical units make use of electromagnetic contractors


or relays to stop, start, and reverse the motor's direction.

•Maximum output voltage is the voltage that the device outputs. This output must match the
system's processes.

•Rated power is the maximum power to be used with the motor.

•Continuous output current is the term used to describe the current which a device will carry
continuously in air without exceeding temperature limits.

•Peak output current is the capacity current output for a short period of time

•AC supply voltage is the range of AC input voltage that will operate the drive or controller.

•DC supply voltage is the range of DC input voltage that will operate the drive or controller.

Confidential Document-Only for Intended User


Controller Selection
•Motor controllers use either 50, 60, or 400 Hz AC input frequency. Input frequency is the
frequency the controller will accept from the motor.
• Single-phase inputs are used for lower voltage applications and is the more
common phrase.
• Three-phase inputs are used for higher voltage applications. They can be used to
overcome high starting loads by starting the motor with higher torque. When the
initial inertial load is overcome, they switch to a more efficient low-torque delta
configuration.

•Computer-based motor controllers use many different types of buses and


communication standards.
• Bus types include advanced technology attachment (ATA), peripheral component
interconnect (PCI), integrated drive electronics (IDE), industry standard architecture
(ISA), general-purpose interface bus (GPIB), universal serial bus (USB), and
VersaModule Eurocard bus (VMEbus).
• Communications standards include ARCNET, AS-i, Beckhoff I/O, CANbus,
CANopen, DeviceNet, Ethernet, small computer systems interface (SCSI), and
smart distributed system (SDS). Many serial and parallel interfaces are also

• Printed circuit board (PCB)
• Standalone devices
• Integrated circuit (IC) chips that mount on PCBs

Controller Functionality
•Soft start is controlled circuitry, which allows the motor to ramp up to full speed over time. This is
often a safety feature for motors moving large or delicate loads, and as a preventive measure for
excessive current draw.

•Braking

o Dynamic braking is the method of the braking in which the power supply is disconnected from
the motor windings. The motor then essentially becomes a generator and the power (heat) is
dissipated through a resistor shunt across the windings.
o Injection braking is applicable to AC motors only. The AC power is disconnected and the DC
power is "injected" into the windings. This creates a magnetic field opposing the motor rotation
and slowing or stopping the motor.
o Regenerative braking is similar to dynamic braking. The motor is removed from the power and
the power generated from the rotating motor is sent back to the supply. The generated power
can be used to recharge a battery that supplies the power to the system.

Confidential Document-Only for Intended User


Controller Functionality
•Brake output is a switch or relay designed to activate or control an external brake

•Home/limit switch inputs are used to indicate start, stop, or end-of-travel positions of the associated axes.

•Auxiliary input/output channels can be included for communications with or feedback from the device

•Status monitoring functions include an alarm and monitor one or more parameters. In the case of a fault or non-
compliant operation, such as overvoltage, overcurrent, overspeed production, and temperature changes, a signal
will be generated to alert the operator.

•Self-configuration or auto-tuning devices will detect operating conditions and automatically adjust its setting for
optimal system performance.

•Self-diagnosing motor speed controllers can detect system problems and report the problem to the operator or
control system.

•Electric vehicle design is used for control of electric motors in industrial, recreational, or other electric vehicles.
Many include application-specific features such as reverse alarm output, signal for speedometers and
tachometers.

C Rating of Battery

A C-rate of 1C is also known as a one-hour discharge; 0.5C or C/2 is a two-


hour discharge and 0.2C or C/5 is a 5-hour discharge

Charge and discharge rates of a battery are governed by C-rates. The


capacity of a battery is commonly rated at 1C, meaning that a fully charged
battery rated at 1Ah should provide 1A for one hour. The same battery
discharging at 0.5C should provide 500mA for two hours, and at 2C it
delivers 2A for 30 minutes. Losses at fast discharges reduce the discharge
time and these losses also affect charge times.

Battery Range Calculation

50 amp hours Battery 10 amp charger 6 hours to recharge

Amp hour rating of the battery divide by the charger rating


(amps) and then add about 10% for the extra time to totally top
off the battery.

3-stage mode charging

First stage ( constant current ) : The charger will supply constant current for the battery

Second stage ( constant voltage ) : The voltage will be rising under the first stage, when it reach constant voltage
value, it will turn into the second stage. The current will be slowly smaller until it reduce to floating value , the CV
stage will end.

Third stage ( Floating charging ) : When the current is approaching the value of transition, the charger will cut
down to the given current gradually, that means the battery power is full and indicator light turn to green. At this
moment, the battery can be stopped charging or keep on trickle current charging for half an hour.

eCall is a European initiative intended to bring rapid assistance to


motorists involved in a collision anywhere in the European Union. eCall
was made mandatory in all new cars sold within the EU from April 2018

The eCall initiative aims to deploy a device installed in all vehicles that
will automatically dial 112 in the event of a serious road accident,
and wirelessly send airbag deployment and impact sensor information, as
well as GPS or Galileo coordinates to local emergency agencies.
