JMAG-RT Seminar (Expected number of participants: 60)
dSPACE Japan K.K.

High-precision HILS Solution for EV/HEV Control Development
For EV/HEV, motors, batteries and their control devices are one of major components that affect performance and energy efficiency of the vehicle system. In recent years, in order to reduce torque ripple and improve further electricity/fuel efficiency, more advanced controlled performance has been required. Using the simulator, which reproduces controlled objects in real time to develop these control devices, is very effective to shorten the development period and improve the quality of ECU software. At this session we will introduce motor HILS and battery HILS, which are required for EV/HEV control development. Regarding motor HILS, importing rtt files from JMAG-RT makes it possible to reproduce more accurate motor characteristics, such as magnetic saturation and spatial harmonics.

The Comparison of the real motor and motor HILS using spatial harmonics model
In the development for the motor controller, the motor HILS is effective in terms of the risk avoidance and reducing man-hours. We have two types model of permanent magnet synchronous motor. One is the dq transformation model, another is the spatial harmonics model. The dq transformation model is simulated using the dq transformation. The spatial harmonics model is simulated using the parameter table obtained by the JMAG. Our Motor HILS has high response by the use of FPGA. We show the results of comparing the motor HILS and the real motor.
