Vehicle Powertrain Sizing Sample Clauses

Vehicle Powertrain Sizing. All the vehicles were sized to meet the same requirements: • Initial vehicle movement (IVM) to 60 mph less than 9 sec ± 0.1 sec. • Maximum grade of 6 % at 65 mph at gross vehicle weight (GVW). • Maximum vehicle speed >100 mph Several automated sizing algorithms were used to provide a fair comparison between technologies. Each algorithm is specific to a particular powertrain (i.e. conventional, power-split, series, electric) and application (i.e. HEV, PHEV). All algorithms were based on the same concept: the vehicle is built from the bottom up, meaning each component assumption (i.e. specific power, efficiency, etc.) was taken into account to define the entire set of vehicle attributes (i.e. weight, etc.). This process is always iterative in the sense that the main component characteristics (i.e. maximum power, vehicle weight, etc.) are changed until all the vehicle technical specifications are met. 2016 IA-HEV ANNUAL REPORT Examples of the rules are provided below for a couple of powertrains: • For HEVs, the electric-machine and battery powers were determined to capture all the regenerative energy from a UDDS cycle. The engine and the generator were then sized to meet the gradeability and performance requirements (e.g. IVM to 60 mph). • For PHEV10s and PHEV20s, the electric-machine and battery powers were sized to be able to follow the UDDS cycle in electric-only mode (this control was only used for the sizing; a blended approach was used to evaluate consumptions). The battery-usable energy was defined to follow the UDDS drive cycle for 10 mi or 20 mi, depending on the requirements. The engine was then sized to meet both performance and gradeability requirements (usually, gradeability is the determining factor for PHEVs). • For PHEV30s and PHEV40s, the main electric-machine and battery powers were sized to be able to follow the aggressive US06 drive cycle (duty cycle with aggressive highway driving) in electric-only mode. The battery-usable energy was defined to follow the UDDS drive cycle for 30 mi or 40 mi, depending on the requirements. The genset (engine + generator) or the fuel- cell systems were sized to meet the gradeability requirements.

  • Variance Power All funds established at the Foundation are subject to the Foundation’s “variance power”, required by Treasury Regulations for the Foundation and its donors to enjoy the more favorable income tax treatment of a community foundation as opposed to the less favorable income tax treatment of a private foundation. Treasury Regulations Section 170A-9(e)(11)(v)(B)(1) specifically states that the governing body of a community foundation must have the power “to modify any restriction or condition on the distributions of funds for any specified charitable purpose or to specified organizations if, in the sole judgment of the governing body (without the necessity of approval by any participating trustee, custodian or agent), such restriction becomes, in effect, unnecessary, incapable of fulfillment, or inconsistent with the charitable needs of the community or area served”.

  • Reactive Power 1.8.1 The Interconnection Customer shall design its Small Generating Facility to maintain a composite power delivery at continuous rated power output at the Point of Interconnection at a power factor within the range established by the Connecting Transmission Owner on a comparable basis, until NYISO has established different requirements that apply to all similarly situated generators in the New York Control Area on a comparable basis.

  • ARRANGING FOR FIRM ALL-REQUIREMENTS POWER SUPPLY Competitive Supplier shall participate in or make appropriate arrangements with the ISO-NE, any relevant regional transmission organization, wholesale suppliers or any other entity to ensure an uninterrupted flow of reliable, safe, firm, All-Requirements Power Supply to the Local Distributor for delivery to Participating Consumers, and take Commercially Reasonable steps to cooperate with the NEPOOL, the ISO-NE or any other entity to ensure a source of back-up power in the event that the facilities owned or controlled by Competitive Supplier's affiliates or other sources of power supply are unable to generate and/or deliver All-Requirements Power Supply to the Point of Delivery. In the event the Competitive Supplier is unable to deliver sufficient electricity to the grid to serve Participating Consumers, the Competitive Supplier shall utilize such arrangements as may be necessary to continue to serve Participating Consumers under the terms of this ESA, and shall bear any costs it may incur in carrying out these obligations. Competitive Supplier shall not be responsible to the Town or any Participating Consumers in the event the Local Distributor disconnects, curtails or reduces service to Participating Consumers (notwithstanding whether such disconnection is directed by the ISO- NE) in order to facilitate construction, installation, maintenance, repair, replacement or inspection of any of the Local Distributor’s facilities, to maintain the safety and reliability of the Local Distributor’s electrical system, or due to any other reason, including emergencies, forced outages, potential overloading of the Local Distributor’s transmission and/or distribution circuits, Force Majeure or the non-payment of any distribution service costs or other such costs due for services provided by the Local Distributor to a Participating Consumer.
