Equipment
ProLINK RegenSIM
Overview
LINK, through the advent of RegenSim, has developed the capability to simulate regenerative braking conditions on inertia brake dynamometers.
RegenSim enables the ProLINK control system to act as a vehicle’s Electronic Control Unit (ECU), distributing the amount of work to be done between the friction brake and the regenerative source.
Key Benefits
- LINK’s RegenSim is the most advanced regenerative braking testing software available in the market today.
- Can be added to any test sequence by entering basic hybrid vehicle parameters.
- The current ProLINK control system is flexible to take in different vehicle inputs to simulate regenerative braking profiles.
- ProLINK RegenSim is able to control to a constant deceleration, simulating the regenerative operation from the vehicle.
- The dynamometer provides accurate control even in durations in which there is no work performed by the friction brake.
