Electric Vehicle Industries

An electric vehicle generally contains the following major components: an electric motor, a motor controller, a traction battery, a battery management system, a plug-in charger that can be operated separately from the vehicle, a wiring system, a regenerative braking system, a vehicle body and a frame.
The battery management system is one of the most critical part of Electric or hybrid vehicles. The operating temperature and voltage are the most important parameters that determine the performance. The BMS monitors voltage, current, temp, state of charge, state of power, coolant flow, safety and health.

Case studies

1. Gear Rolling Tester

This system is used to measure and analyze the functional performance of gears. Composite errors in gears are the main parameter to evaluate the grade of the manufactured gears. Gear testing is a technique that has been used by the Industry to identify the manufacturing defects in the gears. System consists of mechanical assembly, Servo Motor and Drive. NI DAQ hardware, other sensors and PC with application software. Gear under test is mounted on Mechanical assembly and engaged with the Master gear that is mounted on spring loaded assembly This assembly is used to capture deviations / uneven surface, High Spot of gear. LabVIEW based Application software will acquire real time data, logs and analyse real time test data, display result and even mark hot spots on gear.

2. Solenoid Test system

A solenoid works by producing electromagnetic field around the core.
Application Summary :-
Solenoid under test will be mounted on Mechanical assembly Provisions will be made in panel, to connect solenoid with test instruments during testing automatically. Provisions will be made to conduct following tests : 1. Diameter Test, 2. Resistance test, 3. HV test , 4. PE conductor Test, 5. Capacity test Test instruments will be interfaced with PC over RS 232 communication port. Digital Field-inputs and outputs will be connected to PLC , which will be interfaced to PC via MODBUS Ethernet.
Key Points :-
1. System is used to measure data in real time
2. An insulation resistance (IR) test measures the total resistance between any two points separated by electrical insulation. The test, therefore, determines how effective the dielectric (insulation) is in resisting the flow of electrical current.
3. Application software will be developed using NI LabVIEW development environment.
Benefits Achieved :-
1. Reduced Data Loss
2. Achieved Desired Cycle time
3. Flickering issue solved

3. Endurance Test – BLDC Motors

The test assembly consist of number of control configurations, controllers, and PC based data acquisition system
Application Summary :-
1. Monitors and tests Multiple Units simultaneously
2. Capturs total 60 channels if all 12 devices under test are connected
Key Points :-
1. Parameters like Voltage, Current, Power, Short Circuit current, Over Load/No Load voltages, Winding losses can be tested on same test bench.
2. 11 energy meters and 12 RPM meters will communicate with the LabVIEW based customized software.
3. High speed RPM & Frequncy measurement carried out.
