Abstract

An optimal control ready model of a diesel-electric powertrain is developed, validated and provided to the research community. The aim of the model is to facilitate studies of the transient control of diesel-electric powertrains and also to provide a model for developers of optimization tools. The resulting model is a four state three control mean value engine model that captures the significant nonlinearity of the diesel engine, while still being continuously differentiable.
