ELECTRIC DRIVE SCHEME FOR HYUNDAI CRETA
CAR DIMENSIONS & WEIGHT
Projected frontal area Af (1.78 x 1.63) m2
Drag coefficient Cd 0.36
Gross Weight (Kerb Weight + occupants) m 1700 kg
Rim Diameter 17” (or) 0.4318 m
TYRE SPECIFICATIONS
Section Width 215 mm
Aspect Ratio 0.6
Outside Diameter (2x Section Height + Inside 690 mm
Diameter)
Air Density (ISA standards) ρ 1.225 kg/m3
Rolling resistance coefficient Crr 0.015
Gravity g 9.81 m/s2
Vehicle inertial mass mi 1.04 * 1700 = 1768 kg
Let’s limit the vehicle’s maximum speed to be 100 km/hr (27.78 m/s)
1
Aerodynamic Drag (Faero) = ρCd Af V2 = 493.72 N
2
Force due to rolling resistance = mgCrr = 250.15 N
--------------
Total Tractive Force = 743.87 N
Power required to attain maximum speed = (743.87 * 27.78) = 20.66 KW
Torque required on the wheels = (743.87 * 0.690 * 0.5) = 256.6 Nm
Differential gear ratio = 3.62;
Torque produced by the motor = 256.6 / 3.62 = 70.90 Nm
Speed of the motor = ( 20.66 / 70.9 ) * 9.55 = 2785 rpm
Output Power requirement = 20.68 KW.
Input power to the motor for an efficiency of 88% would then be 23.5 KW.
A Brushless DC Motor with the following ratings have been chosen.
>> Power Rating : 25KW
>> Speed Rating : 3600 rpm
>> Torque Rating : 80 Nm
>> Voltage Rating: 72 V
>> Dimensions : (30 x 30 x 25) cm
>> Weight : 40 Kg
• The motor is powered from a 96V 200Ah 20KW battery pack.
>> Size : 301x175x342 mm
>> Weight : 37 Kg
Upon assuming 88% efficiency for the motor,
Power input to the motor (Pin) = 20.66/0.88 = 23.5 KW
Input Current = 244.80 A
The Discharge time for 85% of the battery pack would then be
td = (200*0.85)/244.80 = 0.70 hr
The vehicle would have then travelled 70 km at a speed of 100 km/hr.
For a speed of 50 km/hr, the total tractive force would is 374 N.
Power to be supplied in this case would be 10.4 KW.
For the rated 96V, input current = 108.3 A
therefore, td = 1.85 hours
Distance covered = 92.34 km.
