Vector expands portfolio with high-voltage measurement, real-time analysis
In combination with CSM hardware modules and Vector’s own measurement software vMeasure exp or CANape, developers can calculate and simultaneously display quantities such as active power, efficiency, shielding current and ripple in real time. Vector’s new e-mobility measurement system is used in the development of e-drives and e-vehicles.
The system is scalable and can be used flexibly for measurement tasks on individual components up to complex analyses of complete e-vehicles. The measurement technology enables the user to acquire physical signals, messages from ECUs and bus communication synchronously and with high accuracy in one measurement. This makes it easier to identify dependencies, assess quality, check legal requirements and detect possible sources of error more quickly. The e-mobility measurement system acquires measurement data across domain boundaries and recognizes interrelationships in driver testing, on the test bench and in the laboratory. The developer receives analyses in real time instead of having to carry out evaluations in the laboratory afterwards.
The system consists of the measurement software vMeasure exp with the integrated function library eMobilityAnalyzer for analysis and real-time calculation as well as the certified CSM hardware measurement modules, which provide high-voltage safety. The eMobility measurement system fits seamlessly into the Vector tool chain. This ensures easy connection to bus and ECU interfaces, analysis tools, automated documentation and the measurement data management system.
Powerful high-voltage measurement technology plays a central role in electromobility developments. Measuring electrical currents and voltages is one of the core tasks and requires much higher sampling rates than with the combustion engine. The eMobilityAnalyzer also generates valuable information in the form of calculated and derived variables such as energy flow, ripple, power or efficiency. At the same time, e-vehicles also have numerous control units and bus systems whose signals need to be recorded in order to better understand the interactions between the consumers.
