Power Splitting Devices Dan Farley ELM Project 11/13/2006
Team Hybrid • Construct a hybrid propulsion system • Series vs Parallel connection • Series connection • Run ICE at optimum speed to charge generator to charge batteries • Only electric motor is connected to driveshaft • Parallel Connection • Allow both ICE and electric motor connect to driveshaft
Allows user to alter power output to meet their immediate needs Allows change in rotational speed for change in torque value Engine has redline (max RPM value) Each engine has a range where horsepower and torque are at maximum values Conventional Transmission
Continuously Variable Transmission • Automatic transmission which is not constrained to a fixed number of gear ratios • Types • Variable Diameter Pulley (VDP) • Roller Based • Hydrostatic • Electronically controlled planetary gear set (ECVT) • Cone and belt
Continuously Variable Transmission Roller based Engine Driveshaft
Continuously Variable Transmission Pulley diameter changed by oil pressure
Three modes Low speed: hydraulic High speed: mechanical In between: combination of the two Continuously Variable Transmissions Hyrdrostatic
Continuously Variable Transmission Cone and Belt
Planetary Gear Sets • Consists of a sun, planets and ring gear • Planets are attached to a planet carrier • Produce different gear ratios depending on which gear is input and which one is held Gear Terminology Yellow = Sun Red = Planets Blue = Ring gear
Planetary Gear Sets Calculate input rpm from output rpm Nsun+2Nplanet=Nring Allow for proper distance
