Examination of the Resistance Components of an Energy-Efficient Electric Vehicle
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The paper presents a comprehensive examination of measurement-based modelling regarding resistance forces. This work offers a detailed explanation of the experimental techniques employed to measure the resistance forces experienced by a lightweight vehicle. The modelling approach is particularly beneficial for characterizing vehicle with low resistance values. Our investigation encompasses key vehicle motion states, including cornering and straight-line motion, making it greatly useful for optimization purposes. The measurements were conducted in a proving ground and laboratory environment. The road load coefficients can be breakdown into components from total resistance force measurement. Based on breakdown, future vehicle development goals can be addressed with a focus on reducing resistance forces.
