MODEL FOR THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN CARS

MODEL VOOR HET ELEKTRISCHE SYSTEEM IN EEN AUTO

Over the last few years the use of electrical energy in cars is increasing. At Volvo they are aware of the increasing dema nd. In order to be able to choose an optimal combination of a car generator and an accumulator it is necessary that the electrical system in a car is accessible for commutations. The system consists of the parts alternator, accumulator and loads. Two models for the power electronic part are described: in the first one where the commutations arise in infinitely short intervals; in the second one where the endurance of the commutation is of finite length. A constraint of the model is that it is only valid at constant or slowly varying speeds. The parameters of the model have been measured; the verification has not been carried out because of lack of time.
