  2. 6. Subcooled boiling flow in liquid-cooled internal combustion engines

    Author : Sudharsan Vasudevan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Road transport sector contributes significantly to emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which negatively impact the global climate. Efficient management of energy, irrespective of the type of propulsion, has the potential to minimize fuel consumption and to reduce emission of greenhouse gases. READ MORE

  4. 7. Electric Machine Control for Energy Efficient Electric Drive Systems

    Author : Andreas Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modulation techniques; permanent magnet synchronous machine PMSM ; Energy efficiency; inverter control.; noise assessment;

    Abstract : Over the past decade, electric vehicles has increasingly become an area of attention for both academia and industry, much due to challenges such as emissions legislation and the environmental impact of the transportation sector. The absence of the broadband noise from the internal combustion engine brings new acoustic challenges for electric propulsion applications. READ MORE

  5. 8. Energy Efficient Longitudinal Control

    Author : Rickard Arvidsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Autonomous Vehicles; Optimal Control; Hybrid drivetrain control; Combustion Engines;

    Abstract : Vehicles are contributing to global and local environmental problems as a result of fossil fuels. A majority of the combustion engine population is driven by fossil fuels and electrified vehicles are also to a large extent dependent on electricity production from fossil fuels. READ MORE

  6. 9. Towards Optimal Real-Time Automotive Emission Control

    Author : Jonathan Lock; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dynamic programming; optimal control methods; hybrid vehicles; three way catalyst modelling; Automotive emissions control;

    Abstract : The legal bounds on both toxic and carbon dioxide emissions from automotive vehicles are continuously being lowered, forcing manufacturers to rely on increasingly advanced methods to reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency. Though great strides have been made to date, there is still a large potential for continued improvement. READ MORE
