Influence of Control Design on Energetic Performances of an Electric Vehicle

The influence of the choice of controller design on the efficiency of an EV is discussed in this paper. A classical 2-driven-wheels traction with a permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) is studied. Energetic macroscopic representation (EMR) is used for the modeling of the system with different losses. A simplified model is used to define the control scheme. In order to find out the influence of control design on energetic performance, the model taking losses into account is used to assess this control. Simulation results and comparative studies are provided.
