Treffer: A Study on Calculation Method of EV Range per Charge for Heavy-Duty EV - Considerations of Test Duration and Influence of Regenerative Braking Characteristics -.

We studied a test method of EV range per charge, which is calculation from the electric energy stored in the battery and the electricity consumption, based on the existing test methods in relation to heavy-duty EVs. We conducted experiments on chassis dynamometers with various driving patterns, and compared candidate methods for calculating EV range per charge. The results demonstrate that a calculation method which uses electricity consumption at fully charged battery and one at sufficiently depleted battery can reflect characteristics of regenerative braking and reduce the time required for HILS test.
