Matching research between engine and transmission of vehicle based on AVL-Cruise

Abstract

Using the analysis of the design goals for a new car，the basic structure type of this new car was determined. Under the presupposition of giving power unit, the various of matching scheme of driveline and engine was selected preliminary. The vehicle model was construced by using AVL-Cruise software, and the performance simulation and theory analysis were carried out for the different combination of the power plant and driveline, the optimum matching of powertrain to meet the performance required was chosed in the eventually. Practice has proved that the development cycle of new car can be shortened, the research and development costs can be reduced by using the simulation platform of AVL-Cruise software.

Vehicle Dynamic Simulation Possibilities Using AVL Cruise M

“…We can be used to select gear ratios [12], [13][14], and optimizing gear selection strategies for adaptive transmissions [15][16][17][18] or to align the engine with the transmission [19], [20].…”
