Advanced dual-shaft electric propulsion system technology development program: Annual report IV
This fourth annual report of the DSEP program summarizes all program activities from September 1987 through August 1988. These activities comprise: (1) Successful completion of the first test-bed, proof-of-concept vehicle (TB-1) tests, achieving performance comparable to that of IC engine powered vehicles. Results are in good (+-8%) agreement with those obtained by EG and G, Idaho in simulated dyno tests. (2) Completion of conversion of the second test-bed, durability test vehicle (NVH), dying tests of its powertrain, vehicle installation of the powertrain, shakedown tests of the complete system, and problems encountered in the process. A revision in DSEP program scope is in process that designates this vehicle as a deliverable to DOE and reduces the extent of its durability testing. (3) Completion of conversion and start of subsystem installation of the third complete vehicle (TB-2) to be constructed on the DSEP program: it is a deliverable to DOE. (4) Battery life test results to date, battery performance in the TB-1 vehicle, and an assessment of battery system status. (5) Analysis of the DSEP vehicle/propulsion system manufacturing cost and life cycle cost, and the start of future planning. (6) Program administration and management. 14 figs.
