IMPACT - Integrated Magsplit Powertrain with Advanced Control and Testing

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Magnomatics’ innovative and proprietary magnetic CVT (MAGSPLIT) integrates a magnetic planetary gearand a highly efficient control motor/generator to enable the realisation of more efficient and compact HybridElectric Vehicle powertrain. A Vehicle Intent MAGSPLIT component has previously demonstrated highefficiency and robustness in a compact package, showing the potential to reduce CO2 emissions from new carsby 1.3Mtonnes p.a. by 2025. For this project, a rig based full powertrain demonstrator will be delivered, with amajor automotive OEM providing the vehicle specifications, packaging, prototype test engine and technicalsteer. Magnomatics will design, build and test the MAGSPLIT based full powertrain, Romax Technology willdetermine optimum HEV architecture and mechanical system, CMCL will provide engine and test analysis,University of Sheffield will lead the delivery of the powertrain controller. A powertrain capability and benefitsassessment will enable the OEM to assess business case and market potential, enabling future UK and EEAvolume manufacturing of high value assemblies and components.
