Goal: Give our driver an optimal driving profile.
What do we need?
Car Model
- Energy Generation
- Solar
- energy
- Energy being absorbed by the solar cells
- Regen braking
- Energy Consumption
- Dynamics model
- Dynamics model
- Aerodynamic losses
- Elevation changes
- Friction
- Auxillary Stuff
- Motor losses
- LV losses
- Battery efficiency
- Auxillary Stuff
- Energy Generation
Environment Model
Or are we just creating scenarios- Route
- Are we meteorologists?
- Wind
- Weather
- Contingency
- Planning
State of Charge
- Bigly
- Important
Optimization
- Take car model + requirements +
- route + meteo data => driving profile
- Timing (start + stop)
- Speed requirement
- Lights + Turns
- City driving
- Track driving
- Smoothing of drive profile
- Charging times
- Strategic stops
- Speed limits
- Stops & turns
- Traffic dumping
...
Deadlines:
Track Day - Sunday
Track Day - June 9th
Track Day - June 22nd
- Questions to answer before FSGP:
- How many kwh do we have in the pack?
...
- → Measure it!
- What is the weight of the car? → We know that!
- What is the rolling resistance of the tires?
...
- → Get data
...
- & build empirical model
- What are the aero losses?
...
- → Get data
...
- & build an empirical model
- We need a working speedometer/telemetry, anemometer, and measuring of speed vs. time.
- How much energy does the car lose being alive? → Ask Taiping (hopefully he figures it out!)
- How much solar energy do we get?
- How much energy does the
...
- sunshine?
- How much of it do we pick up?
- When driving?
- With array normalization?
- Motor efficiency ???
- Battery loading efficiency ???
...
- → Ask Micah Black
- SOC ??? Karl
...
- ???
