1 1 Zissimos P. Mourelatos, Associate Prof. Daniel N. Wehrwein, Graduate Student Mechanical Engineering Department Oakland University Modeling and Optimization of Vehicle Drivetrain Dynamic Performance Considering Uncertainty

2 2 Outline  Purpose of study  Dynamic Vehicle Model  Bond Graph Modeling  Optimization Process  Deterministic Optimization  Probabilistic Optimization (RBDO)  Summary and Conclusions

3 3 Purpose of Study Optimize drivetrain performance under uncertainty  Transmission Gear Ratios  Final Drive Ratio (axle ratio)  Transmission Shift Points  Acceleration Performance  Fuel Economy  Trailer Towing Acceleration and Gradability Design Variables Performance Measures

4 4 Vehicle Model

5 5 Bond Graph Modeling  Graphical method for system modeling  Energy based and multidisciplinary  Modular; components can be modeled separately and assembled  Bond graphs and block diagrams are interchangeable. Simulink can be used

6 6 Engine Model  Engine is modeled as a rigid body with friction  Torque input is a look up table of engine speed and throttle position and is based off a steady state torque map Bond Graph Block Diagram

7 7 Torque Converter Model  A complete model would require complex CDF modeling  Dynamometer data is used instead to model torque ratio and converter efficiency

8 8 Transmission Description  GM 4L60E, four speed automatic  Two planetary gear sets in series  Clutch actuation determines gear state  Ratio of sun and ring gear on each planetary gear set determines transmission ratios

9 9 Transmission Model  Planetary gear sets, clutches, and a controller to actuate each clutch are modeled  Each planetary gear set has a sun, a ring, and a planetary gear  Each clutch is actuated through a controller using a shift table. Planetary Gear Set Shift Table

10 10 Driveline and Vehicle Model  Two inertia elements connected by a spring model each shaft  Tire is assumed to be in constant contact with the road  The tire is modeled as a lump inertia with a discrete spring between the tire and the road  The vehicle is modeled as a rigid body with standard rolling resistance and aerodynamic drag 2WD Driveline

11 11 Vehicle Performance Targets Common performance targets for full size trucks:  Acceleration Performance  Gradeability  Trailer Towing Performance  Fuel Economy  Cost, weight, and packaging (not used)

12 12 Drivetrain Optimization Process Optimization design variables :  Transmission planetary ratios  Axle ratio  Transmission shift points Ratios of integers Depend on ratios

13 13 Drivetrain Optimization Process (cont.) In order to avoid integer programming, the optimization is done in two stages:  Optimize axle and transmission ratios for maximum highway fuel economy  Optimize transmission shift points for minimum 0 to 90 acceleration time
