Abstract

Braking systems in motor vehicles generally use a braking system that utilizes friction. The braking performance will decrease caused by using friction rapidly. To overcome this, as an alternative, an electromagnetic braking system can be used by utilizing eddy currents, such as eddy current brakes (ECB). Eddy currents are generated when the rotor pass the magnetic field of the electromagnet. The research aim is to design an ECB system. The performance of the disk design will be determined in this study. The study is about the tendency of the ECB properties. The finite element (FEM) method is used by modeling ECB performance. The experimental results were used to validate the result. The test showed the results of braking using aluminum disk showed the best performance in 12.03 Nm. From these results, the combination of the disks is needed by an appropriate disk design.

Abstract

The development of transportation technology in the automotive sector such as electric vehicles is increasingly advanced. One technology that is needed quite a lot is the development of supporting technology for electric vehicle braking. The use of regenerative braking on light electric vehicles such as 2-wheeled vehicles is not efficient because of its low weight. The use of Eddy Current Brake (ECB) can be a solution for braking support needs. This is because the ECB is a braking system that has the advantage of a lightweight design but still relies on the frictionless principle. However, in addition to its advantages, the eddy current brake is still in the early stages of its research with efficiency that still needs to be developed. In the discussion of the ECB, heat generation is one of the interesting topics to be discussed. Specifically, the study of the characteristics of the unipolar ECB axial performance on heat generation events has not yet been discussed. So this article aims to discuss these events with a simulation process and simple mathematical calculations. Design optimization is done to get the best value. As a result, the use of eddy current brakes with conductor disks using slots, can improve the performance of the ECB on the torque side and cooling side. Thus, this article is a good contribution to the sustainability of ECB research in both the general and automotive fields.

Abstract

The increasing demand for reliable lithium-ion battery in various applications is focused on the need for accurate State of Health (SOH) predictions to prevent performance degradation and potential safety risks. Therefore, this research aimed to improve the accuracy of SOH prediction by integrating Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) with Support Vector Machine (SVM) to overcome the overfitting problem in traditional machine learning models. The dataset used consisted of data from 1000 cycles of lithium-ion battery, collected under laboratory conditions. Data from lithium-ion battery cycles were analyzed using optimized PSO-SVM and ACO-SVM models. These models were evaluated using Mean Square Error (MSE) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) metrics, showing significant improvements in prediction accuracy and model generalization. The results showed that although both optimized models were superior to the baseline SVM, PSO-SVM had higher generalization performance during testing. The higher performance was due to the effective balance between exploring the search space and exploiting optimal solutions, making it more suitable for real-world applications. In comparison, ACO-SVM showed superior performance in training data accuracy but was more prone to overfitting, suggesting the potential for scenarios prioritizing high training accuracy. These results could be applied to extend the lifespan of lithium-ion battery, contributing to enhanced reliability and cost-effectiveness in applications.

Abstract

The hybrid catenary”“battery system offers a promising solution for railways operating in non-electrified sections and during emergencies, ensuring uninterrupted operation, enhanced safety, environmental sustainability, and cost efficiency. This study addresses the challenge of determining an appropriate battery size and introduces a novel rule-based Energy Management Strategy (EMS) with coasting mode to minimize energy consumption while meeting operational requirements. The novelty of this work lies in (i) a straightforward sizing method based on worst-case emergency scenarios and (ii) the integration of coasting-mode operation into a rule-based EMS for hybrid catenary”“battery trains. Simulation results show that the proposed approach achieves up to 12.56% energy savings on 3% gradient tracks while fully supplying auxiliary loads, compared with baseline operation that provides only partial coverage. These results demonstrate a practical and scalable framework for designing efficient, reliable, and resilient railway transport systems.

Abstract

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries play a crucial role as energy sources for electric vehicles and portable electronic devices due to their high energy density. However, this high energy density leads to increased temperatures during operation, which negatively impacts the performance of nickel strips as the primary electrical connectors within the battery. Suboptimal welding of nickel strips results in safety issues, evidenced by gas leaks from the battery. This research aims to explore the impact of welding defects on battery performance, considering the role of gas sensors in enhancing safety. The test samples used are nickel strips with a thickness of 0.1 mm and a width of 5 mm, evaluated using varying currents of 10A, 20A, 40A, and 50A at room temperature. Observations were made regarding nickel degradation, followed by an analysis of carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions. The results indicate a temperature increase of up to 78,8°C at the nickel tip, along with the identification of three welding points representing efficient values. Furthermore, the welding results on the battery produced microstructural defects that led to an increase in CO emissions by 18 ppm and CO₂ emissions by 500 ppm during the 1C charging process until reaching 100%.

Abstract

The extraordinary growth in means of transportation, especially vehicles with internal combustion engines, has made state laws and regulations increasingly stringent. Regulations regarding energy consumption used for passenger and personal mobility and the emissions produced in order to reduce pollution. A hybrid vehicle combines two energies produced from various sources such as an ICE and an electric motor to become a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). This research discusses hybrid electric vehicles on 2-wheeled vehicles which can be used as a solution that can be developed further before pure electric vehicles (EV) replace motorized vehicles (ICE). This research was done experimentally, by carrying out tests on a dynamometer and on the road testing. The main material used in this research was a Honda PCX 150 vehicle. The results of the test on the dynamometer showed that the performance of the internal combustion engine (ICE) had a torque of 11.12 Nm and a power of 8.20 kW at 7000 rpm. Testing the electric motor (EV), obtained torque results of 11.7 Nm and 2.33 kW power. The road test results for internal combustion engine consumption to consume 1 liter of fuel, capable of covering a distance of 54.55 km. Electricity consumption from 100% to 0% SOC can cover a distance of 46.31 km. Hybrid consumption 1 liter of fuel and battery full 100% capable of covering a distance 57.79 km, with battery condition reduced 16%.

Abstract

Making efficient batteries is important nowadays. One potential problem that can hinder this is the thermal runaway that occurs in battery cells. There are various causes of thermal runaway, one of the most common is an increase in temperature that exceeds the optimal allowable limit. Additional cooling will be required in vehicles that use batteries. Battery Thermal Management System (BTMS) with mini-channel cooling plate is one of the methods often used to maintain battery performance. In this study, the performance of Lithium-ion batteries is affected by fluid flow velocity. The experimental process was carried out by charging and discharging with a C-rate of 1C. Cooling is done with ethylene glycol fluid with fluid velocity variations of 0.21 L/min; 0.42 L/min and 0.63 L/min. The results show that fluid flow velocity affects the final battery temperature and battery performance. The optimal fluid velocity is shown at 4.2 L/min. At this speed it can reduce the battery temperature by 6.7°C.

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of integrating a 70 kWh Lithium Titanate Oxide (LTO)-based Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) into the traction system of a Diesel Electric Multiple Unit (DEMU) operating on the Bandung–Cimahi–Padalarang corridor. Two primary problems are addressed: (1) regenerative braking energy wasted as heat in brake resistors, and (2) limited diesel engine power ramp-up response during acceleration. The methodology applies technical analysis based on real operational data loggers at 0.5-second resolution and numerical power flow simulation on a 1,500 VDC link across 12 daily trip cycles. Results show that battery integration increases initial traction effort by 18.1% (82.75 kN → 97.77 kN), reduces 0–25 km/h acceleration time by 26.7% (24.54 s → 17.98 s), and improves notch-P7 acceleration by 39.3%. Fuel savings reach 4.99 liters/cycle (7.14%), equivalent to 21,856 liters/year. Recovered regenerative energy is 6.48 kWh/cycle. CO₂ reductions total 59,228 kg/year, equivalent to planting 2,692 trees. Investment analysis yields a positive NPV of IDR 192,064,475 with a 2.35-year payback period, within the 3.42-year battery service life.
