- Covers design examples with simulation results in every chapter
Air quality is deteriorating, the globe is warming, and petroleum resources are decreasing. The most promising
solutions for the future involve the development of effective and efficient drive train technologies. This comprehensive
volume meets this challenge and opportunity by integrating the wealth of disparate information found in scattered papers
and research.
Modern Electric, Hybrid Electric, and Fuel Cell Vehicles focuses on the fundamentals, theory, and design of
conventional cars with internal combustion engines (ICE), electric vehicles (EV), hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), and fuel cell vehicles (FCV). It presents vehicle performance, configuration, control strategy, design methodology, modeling, and simulation for different conventional and modern vehicles based on the mathematical equations.
Modern Electric, Hybrid Electric, and Fuel Cell Vehicles is the most complete book available on these radical
automobiles. Written in an easy-to-understand style with nearly 300 illustrations, the authors emphasize the
overall drive train system as well as specific components and describe the design methodology step by step,
with design examples and simulation results.
This in-depth source and reference in modern automotive systems is ideal for engineers, practitioners, graduate and
senior undergraduate students, researchers, managers who are working in the automotive industry, and government
agencies.
