help me in design calculation for hybrid car
Hye everyone....
My project is regarding with hybrid car.can someone show me the calculation and the formula used to proved this value.taking example honda insight: for engine: Engine Type: In-Line 4-Cylinder Displacement (cc): 1339 Horsepower @ rpm (Combined: engine (SAE net) + electric motor): 98 @ 5800 Torque (lb-ft @ rpm, combined engine (SAE net) + electric motor): 123 @ 1000-1700 Bore and Stroke (mm): 73 x 80 Compression Ratio: 10.8 : 1 Valve Train: 8-Valve SOHC i-VTEC® how do they get the horsepower and torque?what is the formula used? for electric motor (BLDC motor): Power (hp @ rpm): 13 @ 1500 Torque (lb-ft @ rpm): 58 @ 1000 how do they get the horsepower and torque?what is the formula used? additional info: battery specs: Output (Volts): 100.8 Rated Capacity: 5.75 Ah I really stuck here...Please help me.Thank you all |

Re: help me in design calculation for hybrid car
Are you looking for a formula that will give you the HP and torque numbers based on the inputs (engine displacement, motor supply)? Not gonna happen, there are several other factors that come in to play, including efficiencies and build quality.
That's one of the things I dislike about vacuum cleaner ads - "12 amps of cleaning power!" I'm pretty sure I could loosely hand wind an electric motor and put it in a vacuum with undersized bushings that draws 20 amps of inrush current, but doesn't have anywhere near the suction of a Dirt Devil hand vac. -Rod |

Re: help me in design calculation for hybrid car
What your asking is for someone to teach you mechanical and electrical engineering and then prove to that all they are teaching you is true. That's a pretty tall order and I don't think you'll get any takers.
I can tell you that the electric motor will produce an output power equivalent to the input power times the efficiency. In this case they claim 13HP but I can tell you that with less than 6 ampere hour capacity this will be for a very short duration. 13HP is over 12000 Watts of power into the motor at 80% efficiency. If the battery can maintain 80 volts under full load then current draw would be in the vicinity of 150 amperes. So, at full load the battery charge has a theoretical life of about 2.3 minutes and I can tell with absolute certainty it will, in real life, be considerably shorter. This is a best case scenario! When the temperature departs from optimum and/or the battery sulfates everything goes down hill from there. |
