Webinar: Developing and Testing Hybrid ECUs with ASMs

Note: Registration completed

Instructor: Tino Schulze, Product Manager for ASMs and ModelDesk

Length: Approx. 1 hour

Target group: Design engineers and ECU test engineers who develop and test electronic control units for hybrid powertrains in a model-based development process.

 

Hybrid powertrains are among the most promising new ideas for meeting tough new requirements on fuel consumption and harmful emissions. By combining a combustion engine, an electric motor, a battery and a transmission, they have considerable energy savings potential without impairing the fun of driving. However, the technology also involves greatly increased system complexity. This is evident in the powertrain itself, and even more so in the control algorithms and the networking of ECUs.

The increased system complexity poses new challenges for design engineers and ECU test engineers. Model-based development enables them to draw sound conclusions on how the mechatronic components and control functions will interact, even in the very early design and test phases for the hybrid powertrain.

 

This webinar describes how you can use the ASMs to create hybrid powertrain models, both for the control development phase and also for the later test phase on a hardware-in-the-loop test bench. Special attention is paid to the issues of variant management and of connecting the models to the real ECUs to ensure real-time capability.

 

There will be presentations and tool demonstrations illustrating these topics.
