Smart e-corner and Smart e-axle assembly
This report (D6.1) focuses on the integration and testing of two advanced powertrain components: the smart e-corner and the smart e-axle. The In-Wheel Motor (IWM) from ELA is integrated into the smart e-corner at TUIL and the baseline On-board Axial Flux Motor (AFM) is mounted on the powertrain test rig at USR. In parallel, a smart e-axle will be implemented at USR, while the dSpace Scalexio Rapid Prototyping system at TUIL will operate a virtual Vehicle model within a X-in-the-Loop (XiL) framework. This setup allows for distributed real-time simulation and control across both sites.
The experimental configurations will be equipped with comprehensive instrumentation—voltage, current, torque, temperature, and vibration sensors—to measure electrical and mechanical performance, thermal behaviour, and Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) characteristics. Control and monitoring will be coordinated through the dSpace platform and through a secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection between USR and TUIL.
