Electric Powertrain: Energy Systems, Power Electronics and Drives for Hybrid, Electric and Fuel Cell Vehicles

Description:

The why, what and how of the electric vehicle powertrain

Empowers engineering professionals and students with the knowledge and skills required to engineer electric vehicle powertrain architectures, energy storage systems, power electronics converters and electric drives.

The modern electric powertrain is relatively new for the automotive industry, and engineers are challenged with designing affordable, efficient and high-performance electric powertrains as the industry undergoes a technological evolution. Co-authored by two electric vehicle (EV) engineers with decades of experience designing and putting into production all of the powertrain technologies presented, this book provides readers with the hands-on knowledge, skills and expertise they need to rise to that challenge.

This four-part practical guide provides a comprehensive review of battery, hybrid and fuel cell EV systems and the associated energy sources, power electronics, machines, and drives.

  • Introduces and holistically integrates the key EV powertrain technologies.
  • Provides a comprehensive overview of existing and emerging automotive solutions.
  • Provides experience-based expertise for vehicular and powertrain system and sub-system level study, design, and optimization.
  • Presents many examples of powertrain technologies from leading manufacturers.
  • Discusses the dc traction machines of the Mars rovers, the ultimate EVs from NASA.
  • Investigates the environmental motivating factors and impacts of electromobility.
  • Presents a structured university teaching stream from introductory undergraduate to postgraduate.
  • Includes real-world problems and assignments of use to design engineers, researchers, and students alike.
  • Features a companion website with numerous references, problems, solutions, and practical assignments.
  • Includes introductory material throughout the book for the general scientific reader.
  • Contains essential reading for government regulators and policy makers.

Electric Powertrain: Energy Systems, Power Electronics and Drives for Hybrid, Electric and Fuel Cell Vehicles is an important professional resource for practitioners and researchers in the battery, hybrid, and fuel cell EV transportation industry. The resource is a structured, holistic textbook for the teaching of the fundamental theories and applications of energy sources, power electronics, and electric machines and drives to engineering undergraduate and postgraduate students.


Editorial Reviews

Review

Hayes and Goodarzi have focused their considerable talent and experience to teaching the inner workings of the electric car. Readers, whether engineers, students, or the interested public will find this book a treasure trove of knowledge on modern automotive technology. In conclusion, what a great book! ―John M Miller, J-N-J Miller Design Services PLLC, Longview, Texas, USA

I highly recommend 'Electric Powertrain: Energy Systems, Power Electronics and Drives for Hybrid, Electric and Fuel Cell Vehicles' by Dr John G. Hayes and Dr G. Abas Goodarzi. I use this book as my core teaching text on my module Transportation Power and Systems 3, which I teach to third year BEng and MEng Mechanical Engineering undergraduates in Queen's University Belfast. This book captures the fundamentals and in-depth aspects of the key elements of the course I teach including drive cycles, power trains for hybrids, vehicle dynamics, batteries and machines. The worked examples are excellent. The text book is very well laid out with superb well thought-out practical problems at the end of each chapter. This book is very relevant to those who wish to expand their knowledge of hybrid vehicles. It seamlessly integrates the electrical, civil and mechanical disciplines in this growing and multidisciplinary area. This is especially important considering the sustainable direction of land-based transport will take over the next decade as we strive to combat global warming and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. ―Dr Aoife Foley, School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Queen's University Belfast, United Kingdom

5.0 out of 5 stars Possibly the best I ever read about electrification

As a mechanical engineer working around 20 years in the car industry I certainly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly useful / Written to facilitate understanding

J.K. · August 12, 2018

I have been designing inverters (primarily for xEV’s) since 1997. This week, an enthusiastic young engineer joined my team. He stated that before digging into details of the inverter, he wanted a broad overview of the entire electrical propulsion system. Had he joined prior to the appearance of the book “Electric Powertrain: Energy Systems, Power Electronics and Drives for Hybrid, Electric and Fuel Cell Vehicles”, I would have wished him good luck piecing together such diverse information. Fortunately for my young colleague, the book was recently published. Until reading this book, I had shamefully little understanding of the overall electric powertrain. It took me just three weeks to eat this book up from front to back. It taught me SO MUCH!The authors don’t simply spit out facts. Their information is supported by math, but is conveyed in a manner that facilitates intuitive understanding. They have included critical equations that are incredibly useful to practicing engineers. (I have only seen a few of these published before, scattered in obscure technical papers.) Fortunately, much understanding can be derived by those who’s math skills are rusty (or nonexistent). I consider this the second best book in my extensive library of technical books. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST xEV textbook you will find!

J.S. · October 6, 2019

What an insightful textbook- hands-down THE best that I've found when it comes to Electric Vehicle technology! I found this text in 2018 (the year it was published) and it was quite refreshing to find content that was broken down from the engineering side in a manner that someone from a more technical background can understand... (myself having backgrounds in both and am appreciative of the structure of this text). I haven't found any other textbooks that come close to this (in comparison to approximately 11 other textbooks I've reviewed over the last 4 years). I have been using this text to enhance my understanding of xEVs since I received an instructor's copy last year, and I will be using this text going forward as part of the Electric Vehicles class I will begin teaching next semester.Thank you to the authors, Dr. John Hayes and Dr. Abas Goodarzi, for taking the time and effort to make this textbook possible!

A genuinely excellent technical book, highly capable and descriptive in all it's wide aspects. I purchased the book through Amazon as second hand, but in fact I do not think it had even been looked at; more beneficial to me however and thanks to the original owner.
