Lightweight Battery Electric Vehicle for Educational Purposes

Article Preview

Abstract:

Introducing the concept of Battery Electric Vehicle developed at the Technical University of Liberec, intended for test and educational purposes. It is a lightweight four wheeled vehicle with an open frame primarily designed for ease of access to all major vehicle components. For the main structural elements of the vehicle frame was chosen modular system of extruded aluminum profiles. The vehicle power unit consists of BLDC motor paired with multi-speed manual transmission. Traction battery with regard for the electrical safety consists of 17s LFP cells only, resulting in a nominal voltage of 55 VDC (63 VDC fully charged). Total amount of energy stored in the traction battery is 10.8 kWh.
