Our FutureCar Challenge team has a Chrysler Intrepid
95
Hybrid Vehicule. We are using a Volks 1.9 TDI
engine.
We wanna use a DC motor to move our car up to
15MPH
then the Diesel engine will be clutched into the
drivetrain.
We have a battery pack of 144v. Our Solectria
22HP
continuous with a 50 n-m torque isn't enough powerful
to
move the car with a decent acceleration. But with
the
Solectria controller, it's possible to do regenerative
braking
and also regen the batteries on-the-fly. We use that
last
feature when we are at more than 40MPH.
What will be the best DC motor available
for our application?
Kostov, ADC or GE .....
Is there any 144v DC controller that can handle
regenerative
braking???
We are waiting for suggestions.
Thanks!
