Development of an Electric Charge and Discharge Balance Simulator

Abstract

Prototype of an electric charge/discharge balance simulator was developed for the evaluation of matching for charging/discharging balance system for a specific vehicle. Battery and several electric loads for simulation were modeled properly for the real car driving environments and for driving experiment patterns and habits. The characteristics of the developed balance simulator were analyzed and compared with the electric power system of a given vehicle. This simulator can be used for the design of power system of future new car.
