E-trailer

This page provides the steps on how to model e-trailer project from e-Traction. e-trailer project is a concept project from e-Traction in which e-trailer is a normal trailer that has an electric motor mounted to one of its axle.
The ultimate goal of this project is to increase energy efficiency [kWh/km] hence reducing operating cost.

Creating the simulation

All of the component modules used in this simulations can be downloaded from ADVANCE Library.
The first step in creating this simulation is the same as the example simulation for Parallel Hybrid vehicle simulation. Click here to learn more.
