Co-simulation with AMESim and MATLAB for differential dynamic coupling of Hybrid Electric Vehicle
A new dynamic coupling device of Hybrid Electric Vehicle(HEV) was put forward based on the traditional symmetric bevel gear differential. And the co-simulation platform was constructed based on AMESim and MATLAB by analysis of the transfer mechanism for the new dynamic coupling. The control strategy was developed using MATLAB, the dynamic model of HEV was built using AMESim, and the data exchange was realized through AMESim special interface module and MATLAB S function. The performance simulation was performed on the co-simulation platform, and the simulation results show that it is feasible to act traditional symmetric bevel gear differential as the dynamic coupling device of HEV, and the fuel consumption can be reduced obviously.
