Abstract

Recent technological strides have caused electric vehicles (EVs) to reshape the transportation landscape, boasting environmental advantages alongside positive impacts on human health. Crafting electric vehicles involves intricate motor and battery considerations due to multifaceted design requisites. This study leverages the MATLAB Simulink platform to model an electric bike equipped with a 2 kW Brushless DC motor and a 48 V, 50 Ah battery. The comprehensive model encapsulates the battery, driver controller, power converter, motor, and vehicle subsystems, with a dynamic drive cycle-based representation. An H-bridge converter is adopted to engineer the power converter. The efficacy of the EV is assessed through the Indian driving cycle and the World Harmonized Test Cycle, gauging motor speed and power output. Additionally, the State of Charge (SoC) and Battery Current consumption parameters are quantified for both test drive cycles. This endeavor unveils a meticulous exploration of EV dynamics, motor efficiency, and battery performance, reinforcing the potential of EVs as sustainable and health-beneficial mobility solutions.
