Lightweight Hybrid Vehic Title: Lightweight Electric/Hybrid Vehicle Design Author(s): John Fenton, Ron Hodkinson Series: Automotive Engineering Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann Year: 2001 Language: English Pages (biblio\tech): 280\280 ISBN: 0750650923, 9780750650922 Lightweight Electric/Hybrid Vehicle Design, covers the particular automotive design approach required for hybrid/electrical drive vehicles. There is currently huge investment world-wide in electric vehicle propulsion, driven by concern for pollution control and depleting oil resources. The radically different design demands of these new vehicles requires a completely new approach that is covered comprehensively in this book.The book explores the rather dramatic departures in structural configuration necessary for purpose-designed electric vehicle including weight removal in the mechanical systems. It also provides a comprehensive review of the design process in the electric hybrid drive and energy storage systems.Ideal for automotive engineering students and professionals Lightweight Electric/Hybrid Vehicle Design provides a complete introduction to this important new sector of the industry.comprehensive coverage of all design aspects of electric/hybrid cars in a single volumepacked with case studies and applicationsin-depth treatment written in a text book style (rather than a theoretical specialist text style) Table of contents : Contents......Page 4 Preface......Page 6 About the authors......Page 8 0.1 Preface......Page 10 0.2 Design theory and practice......Page 11 0.3 Lean production, enterprise structures and networking......Page 20 0.4 Electric-drive fundamentals......Page 23 0.5 EV classification......Page 27 Part 1 ELECTROMOTIVE TECHNOLGY......Page 30 1.2 Case for electric vehicles......Page 32 1.3 Selecting EV motor type for particular vehicle application......Page 44 1.4 Inverter technology......Page 50 1.5 Electric vehicle drives: optimum solutions for motors, drives and batteries......Page 53 2.2 Battery performance: existing systems......Page 58 2.3 Status of the aluminium battery......Page 64 2.4 Advanced fuel-cell control systems......Page 68 2.5 Waste heat recovery, key element in supercar efficiency......Page 79 3.2 Electric truck motor considerations......Page 85 3.3 Brushless DC motor design for a small car......Page 87 3.4 Brushless motor design for a medium car......Page 90 3.5 Brushless PM motor: design and FE analysis of a 150 kW machine......Page 93 3.6 High frequency motor characteristics......Page 97 3.7 Innovative drive scheme for DC series motors......Page 102 4.1 Introduction......Page 109 4.2 Reforming and other hydrogen feedstocks......Page 111 4.3 Characteristics, advantages and status of fuel cells......Page 112 4.4 Thermodynamics of fuel cells......Page 113 4.5 Process engineering of fuel cells......Page 116 4.6 Steps towards the fuel-cell engine......Page 118 4.7 Prospects for EV package design......Page 122 4.8 Fuel-cell vehicles and infrastructure......Page 125 4.9 The PNGV programme: impetus for change......Page 127 Part 2 EV DESIGN PACKAGES/DESIGN FOR LIGHT WEIGHT......Page 131 5.2 Electric batteries......Page 133 5.3 Battery car conversion technology......Page 143 5.4 EV development history......Page 147 5.5 Contemporary electric car technology......Page 150 5.6 Electric van and truck design......Page 156 5.7 Fuel-cell powered vehicles......Page 163 6.1 Introduction......Page 169 6.2 Hybrid-drive prospects......Page 171 6.3 Hybrid technology case studies......Page 174 6.4 Series-production hybrid-drive cars......Page 184 6.5 Hybrid passenger and goods vehicles......Page 192 7.1 Introduction......Page 201 8.3 ‘Punt’-type structures......Page 0 7.3 Plastic mouldings for open canopy shells......Page 206 7.4 Materials for specialist EV structures......Page 210 7.5 Ultra-lightweight construction case study......Page 219 7.6 Weight reduction in metal structures......Page 220 8.1 Introduction......Page 227 8.2 Structural package and elements......Page 228 8.4 Optimizing substructures and individual elements......Page 239 8.5 Designing against fatigue......Page 245 8.6 Finite-element analysis (FEA)......Page 246 8.8 Running gear design for optimum performance and light weight......Page 251 8.9 Lightweight vehicle suspension......Page 259 8.10 Handling and steering......Page 260 8.11 Traction and braking systems......Page 263 8.12 Lightweight shafting, CV jointing and road wheels......Page 269 8.13 Rolling resistance......Page 271 Index......Page 278
