Power to Wheels
= sum of 2 Powers
from ICE
and from Elect Mot
Question is to calculate the Torque Distribution Factor (α)
to get Optimal conditions: maximizing the efficiencies
or minimizing the total losses

Power Prediction
Predictive Control :
what is the optimal alfa(t) ( and gear(t) )
providing the minimum SUM of Losses on the horizon [to, to+H] ?
Alfa_opti(H) ≠ “sum” of each alfa_opti(tk)
Alfa_opti(H) = alfa(t) as {Sum of Losses(t) } is minimal

Architectural assignments
Objective : minimize development effort by performing the right safety requirements
allocations
Battery protection
Safety requirements for “passenger intoxication” :
› Battery cells shall not emit chemicals (venting)
when tested according to IEC62660, Chapter 6.
› Battery system shall not emit chemicals when
tested according to ISO 12405, Chapter 9.
› Design of the ventilation of the battery case
(under the OEM responsibility) shall be directed
to outside of the passenger compartment in
order to control the risk.
No additional safety requirements for
“Passenger intoxication
