Design and Validation of a Tool for Prognosis of the Energy Consumption and Performance in Electric Vehicles

2018

Author(s): del Valle JA, Viera JC, Anseán D, Brañas C, Luque P, Mántaras DA, Pulido YF

This work develops a software tool to calculate and predict the energy consumption of an electric vehicle (EV) for any desired route. The software tool is based on a mathematical model of an electric vehicle, which relates the energy consumption of the vehicle with factors such as the speed and the terrain slope
