Focused on BEV architectures with distributed multiple wheel drives, and, specifically, in-wheel powertrains, HighScape will explore the feasibility of a family of highly efficient power electronics components and systems, and including integrated traction inverters, on board chargers, DC/DC converters, and electric drives for auxiliaries and actuators. The proposed solutions will be assessed on test rigs and on two differently sized BEV prototypes. The project will result in: i) component integration with the incorporation of the WBG traction inverters within the in-wheel machines to achieve zero footprint of the electric powertrain on the sprung mass; the functional integration of the traction inverter with the on-board charger, and the incorporation of the latter and the DC/DC converters within the battery pack; and the implementation of multi-motor and fault-tolerant inverter solutions for the auxiliaries and chassis actuators; ii) novel solutions, including the implementation of reconfigurable winding topologies of the drive, as well as integrated and predictive thermal management at the vehicle level, with the adoption of phase changing materials within the power electronics components; iii) the achievement and demonstration of significantly higher levels of power density, specific power and energy efficiency for the resulting power electronics systems and related drives; iv) major cost reductions thanks to the dual use of parts, subsystem modularity, and model based design to eliminate overengineering; and v) increased dependability and reliability of the power electronics systems, enabled by design and intelligent predictive health monitoring algorithms. Through HighScape, the participants will establish new knowledge and industrial leadership in key digital technologies, and, therefore, directly contribute to Europe’s Key Strategic Orientations as well as actively support the transformation towards zero tailpipe emission road mobility (2Zero).

HighScape专注于具有分布式多轮驱动的BEV架构，特别是轮内动力系统，将探索一系列高效电力电子组件和系统的可行性，包括集成牵引逆变器，车载充电器，DC/DC转换器以及用于辅助设备和执行器的电驱动器。提出的解决方案将在测试台架和两个不同尺寸的BEV原型上进行评估。该项目将产生：i）部件集成，将WBG牵引逆变器并入轮内机器内，以实现电动动力系统在簧载质量上的零足迹;牵引逆变器与车载充电器的功能集成，以及将车载充电器和DC/DC转换器并入电池组内;以及为辅助设备和底盘执行器实施多电机和容错逆变器解决方案; ii）新颖的解决方案，包括驱动器的可重构绕组拓扑的实现，以及车辆级的集成和预测性热管理，在电力电子部件内采用相变材料; iii）实现并展示所得电力电子系统和相关驱动器的显著更高水平的功率密度、比功率和能量效率; iv）由于零件、子系统模块化和基于模型的设计的双重使用而大大降低了成本，以消除冗余;以及v）通过设计和智能预测健康监测算法来实现电力电子系统的增加的可靠性和可靠性。通过HighScape，参与者将在关键数字技术方面建立新的知识和行业领导地位，从而直接为欧洲的关键战略方向做出贡献，并积极支持向零尾气排放道路交通（2 Zero）的转型。
