Electric Traction for Automobiles – Comparison of Different Wheel-hub Drives
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a comparison concerning electric traction drives for passenger cars is given. Electric traction drives presently available on the market are analyzed and future developments are described. Two main classes of such drives are presented: centre drives (like presently known from hybrid cars) and wheel-hub drives (which are still in the research and development phase). The wheel-hub drives are investigated in detail. Two different concepts are regarded: High-speed drive with gear-box and low-speed direct drive. The advantages and disadvantages of both concepts are shown, resulting in the fact that most probably the low-speed direct drive performs better.

متن کاملA Comprehensive Model for Adhesion Control System of Wheel and Rail
This paper presents the movement dynamic of the train and the relationship between the speed of wheel and train, as well as a discussion about the concept of wheel slip. There are two different operation regions designated as creep and wheelspin areas for wheel slip. Creep and wheelspin areas have stable and unstable characteristics, respectively. Wheels and rails are constructed from iron, and...
