Building 213 (Cafeteria)
Henning Lohse-Busch (ES) will present "Advanced Powertrain Research Facility: Benchmarking Vehicle Technologies on a Chassis Dynamometer in a Thermal Chamber" at the next Partnerships Meeting Thursday, October 11, from noon to 1 p.m., in the Building 213 Cafeteria, Private Dining Rooms.
Argonne's Advanced Powertrain Research Facility (APRF) recently completed the thermal chamber upgrade around the four wheel drive chassis dynamometer.
The presentation will:
- Discuss vehicle testing on a chassis dynamometer
- Introduce the APRF's test capabilities
- Show the impact of ambient temperatures on energy consumption for an electric vehicle
- Provide interesting sample results and analysis of hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles
