Power Transmission
The complex interactions of subsystems like mechanics, hydraulics, pneumatics, electronics, magnetics or thermal are necessary and are to be considered in the modelling of modern power transmission systems.
Based on the requirements of an interdisciplinary modeling environment which is suitable for the examination of power transmission components, controls and the inclusion of processes, SimulationX environment fulfils this application claim and therefore resolving the shortcomings simple computations or quasi-static design programs. Of any variant type of power transmission, the structure and parameter variability of enhanced drive system can be designed comprehensively, fast and precise with SimulationX.
SimulationX is applied by well-known customers in the automotive industry such as Audi, BMW, Daimler, FAW, Fiat, Ford, Getrag, Honda, Iran Khodro, Lenze Drives, Mitsubishi, Schaeffler, Volkswagen, and ZF.
SimulationX application fields
- Design and optimization of power transmission systems considering every feedback effect of the physically different subsystems like power trains, motors, converter and controls (analog, digital)
- Linear and nonlinear, continuous and discrete modeling of mechanical, electrical controlled and combustion engine power transmission components and characteristics
- Dynamical dimensioning of motors, clutches, gears and transmission elements
- Transient and steady-state computation in time and frequency domain
Simulation-aided power transmission design and integration in the complete system - Hoerbiger-ITI-shifting Simulator faciliates the experience of the gearshift comfort of virtual synchronizers influenced by drive train and shift linkage
SimulationX benefits
- Access to the complete component and function oriented model units of every power transmission type
- The use of the modeling methods as required (e.g. 1D spring masse system, multibody systems, block or circuit diagram modeling)
- Flexible parameterization depending on the task with catalog data, geometrical or constructive values, measured data or characteristic diagrams
- Free choice in the design of quasi-state, rigid or dynamical power transmission characteristics
- Result analysis and interpretation during the simulation run or at the end by various analysis tools
