Driveline and Powertrain NVH Analysis in xEVs

Register for this event with our North American GT Conference.

The recent automotive industry trend towards electrification has created new challenges for NVH engineers. These challenges stem from new powertrain architectures and their complex interactions, the governing control strategies which aim to optimize energy management, which unmask new sources of excitation. NVH problems are often the result of mechanisms that originate through complex interactions between different physical domains and the assembly of individual components into a complete system. E-motors, gear drives, engine dynamics and their interaction altogether can produce different noise and vibrations that might become challenging to isolate from the passenger compartment.

This Seminar demonstrates how within the GT-SUITE multi-physics integrated simulation platform, the NVH analysis of electric and hybrid drivetrains can be performed by integrating gas-dynamics, electromagnetic, and multibody dynamics system simulations together with different control strategies. The session will address some of the GT-SUITE capabilities to handle different NVH error states covering different ranges of frequencies, including non-linear transients such as EV-HEV operational mode switches or start-stop. It will also include different studies and benchmarked cases.

Valvetrain Modeling

This class is intended for users with previous experience or users who participate in this free-of-charge Introduction Training.

This course is designed for new users of GT-SUITE Valvetrain Application. It will focus on the simulation of engine valvetrains through the use of VTDesign and GT-SUITE. There will also be an introduction to the new ValvetrainDesign interface in GT-SUITE. The following topics will be covered:

Cam Design (VTDesign)

Develop a profile design starting from an existing reference profile

Spring Layout (VTDesign)

Valvetrain mechanism kinematics, quasi-dynamic analysis (ValvetrainDesign)

Generate valve lift from cam shape or vice-versa
Calculate idealized separation speed (or Spring Margin)

Dynamic modeling of valvetrains

Modeling Contacts for Hertz Pressure and Oil Film Calculations
Multi-mass Spring Modeling
Adding Compliance to Valvetrain Components

If time permits, more specialized topics may be covered as requested by participants. Some possible topics are: Hydraulic lash adjusters, Cam Phasers, Variable Valve actuation, Transient simulations, CamDesign Optimization or user-supplied suggestions.

HVAC System Modeling & Simulation

This class is intended for users with previous experience or users who participate in this free-of-charge Introduction Training.

This 1 day class will introduce the use of GT-SUITE software for modeling of air conditioning or heat pump systems, including the refrigerant circuit, HVAC ducting, and cabin. The course is targeted towards engineers with responsibility for design and analysis of A/C systems, or for those who are responsible for overall vehicle energy management including an A/C system.

The class will consist primarily of interactive model building exercises. The following are the primary topics to be covered:

Modeling the refrigerant flow network: Basic flow system modeling and discretization concepts, usage of GEM3D for flow systems modeling.
Modeling A/C system components: Building and calibration of the basic components of A/C systems, such as compressor, receiver/dryer, thermal expansion valve, and heat exchangers. Usage of COOL3D pre-processing tool to build and automatically discretize more complex scenarios (non-uniform inlet air flow, for example).
Assembling the complete A/C system model for system level calculations: Assembling the refrigerant flow network and A/C components into a complete model of the A/C system. Steady state and transient system analysis. GT-POST post-processing tool for analysis of results.
Modeling air circuits: Modeling of the HVAC ducting and the blower.
Modeling the vehicle cabin: Different levels of modeling detail available for modeling the cabin within GT-SUITE.
Integration with Cooling/Engine/Vehicle models: Introduction of integrating the A/C system models into vehicle system level simulations including cooling, engine, and driveline systems. Cabin pulldown transient simulations, transient drive cycle analysis for fuel economy/energy management (i.e. US EPA SC03 cycle).

Aftertreatment Systems

This class is intended for users with previous experience or users who participate in this free-of-charge Introduction Training.

This class is intended for GT-POWER users interested in learning how to model exhaust aftertreatment systems. The class will include discussion of exhaust aftertreatment modeling theory, and construction of exhaust aftertreatment system models using GT-POWER. The following topics will be discussed in detail:

TWC, DPF, SCR, and other exhaust aftertreatment devices
Modeling of chemical kinetic reactions for catalysts
Soot filtration and regeneration models for DPFs
Techniques for calibrating DPF pressure drop and soot regeneration
Techniques for calibrating kinetic reaction mechanisms
