“…TEGs use temperature difference to create electricity through the Seebeck effect. Stobart et al 3 demonstrates the CIL integration of a TEG in the context of heavy and medium duty engines. Recognising that using the post-turbine exhaust flow as the heat source may affect the gas catalysis process critical for aftertreatment, they explore the possibility of having a TEG in place of the EGR cooler.…”

“…This is particularly useful for representing non-linear behaviours, and complex subsystems, especially when the details of their internal mechanisms are not available. Stobart et al 3 uses a non-linear autoregressive exogenous ANN to predict the operation of a TEG. More specifically, they use a back-propagation ANN to model the non-linear part.…”

“…This paper focuses on the use of component-in-the-loop (CIL or sometimes CoIL) techniques, which test the interaction between a physical component and a virtual component, within automotive applications. [1][2][3] In-the-loop techniques, rapid prototyping, and cyber-physical systems in general are used for modelling purposes, to test the behaviour of specified (but not yet built) components, for validation and testing, and for investigating faults. 4 Similar techniques are used for distributed testing where different experimental facilities from geographically separated locations are combined into one experiment.…”

To meet rising demands in performance and emissions compliance, companies are driven to develop systems of ever-increasing complexity. In-the-loop methods use a hybrid approach combining a physical subsystem with a virtual subsystem in real-time that can make product development processes faster and cheaper, enabling physical subsystems to be tested in real-world conditions while they are immersed in virtual environment simulation. These techniques evolved from being used solely in controller development with only the embedded controller placed as hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), to being a more holistic technique for system synthesis, capable of both component- and system-level studies. This paper delves into the development of the latter form, henceforth referred to as ‘component-in-the-loop’ or CIL. It provides a literature review of the growing uses of the technique in automotive development, giving a general implementation guidance in system architecture, methodology and control system structure. Furthermore, it suggests the need to clarify terminologies related to in-the-loop methods for a more efficient taxonomy. Definitions are proposed where deemed appropriate. In the age of search engines, this should facilitate knowledge transfer within and across disciplines. Finally, it highlights the key challenges in constructing such systems while discussing attempted solutions. CIL has reached a state of maturity where it is ready for wider adoption and continued technological progress will only push its potential further.
