“…In order to investigate the dynamic characteristics of the overall system, an integrated model has been developed in LMS AMESim to consider the mutual effects of the electrical and mechanical systems. The thermodynamic cycle is based on the work presented in [1][2][3]. This has previously been connected to various electric models [4,5].…”

One possibility for onboard electricity generation in a hybrid vehicle is a free piston engine incorporating an integrated linear generator. This paper presents the modelling and development of the linear engine generator concept, where a linear electrical machine is physically integrated within a free piston engine. Details and results of a multi-physics simulation of this concept are given, with a focus on the design of the electric machine. It is shown that a short translator design can result in the highest power density. This also gives the opportunity for integrating the electric machine physically within the compressor. Details of a prototype demonstrator of the resulting generator-compressor are given.
