Serial Powertrain and Engine Test Field
For the development of hybrid vehicles and electric vehicles with range extender, test stand configurations are required that are able to test the electric components in conjuntion with the combustion engine components . With its range of test stands, Fraunhofer IVI covers the entire field of traction components applied in diverse kinds of vehicles such as electric delivery vehicles, 12-t trucks and 18-m articulated buses.
The complete test field consists of an engine test stand, a dynamometer, battery simulators and a battery test stand, which are all networked to form one unit.
