Electric-vehicle chassis dynamometer test methods at JPL and their correlation to track tests
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6210791
Early in its electric vehicle (EV) test program, JPL recognized that EV test procedures were too vague and too loosely defined to permit much meaningful data to be obtained from the testing. Therefore, JPL adopted more stringent test procedures and chose the chassis dynamometer rather than the track as its principal test technique. Through the years, test procedures continued to evolve towards a methodology based on chassis dynamometers which would exhibit good correlation with track testing. Based on comparative dynamometer and track test results on the ETV-1 vehicle, the test methods discussed demonstrate a means by which excellent track-to-dynamometer correlation can be obtained.
