CETIM,
France – The CETIM has selected MORPHEE 2 automation system for the
validation of the ECU of a new gear box. MORPHEE 2 controls two electrical
dynamometers as well as the CAN interface to the gearbox controller of the
gearbox. CETIM has chosen D2T solution for the performances but also
the user-friendly interface and the flexibility of MORPHEE system.

University
of Karlsruhe, Germany – The University of Karlsruhe has selected the EC
dynamometer DE 900 to do testing on Heavy Duty diesel engine. Technical
features and the low inertia of this dynamometer has fulfilled customer
requirements. This dynamometer is the third commissioned after 2 AC dynamometers of 380 and 500 kW.

SIA Congress: Diesel Engine
|
|
During the SIA Congress in Rouen (France) on the 28th and 29th of May, D2T, main sponsor of this
event, brought to light his leading role for engine and powertrain
development demonstrating some realisations such as:
- D2T
development one-cylinder engine is a modular and fast development
platform based on a one-cylinder engine. This unique engine base is
covering a wide range of engines.
- MORPHEE
2, D2T test bed automation system which fulfil the new requirements on
a test bed for models integration in real time. A detailed
presentation of the system was performed during the congress (see
below).
- Combustion
Analysis System OSIRIS, which communicates with ASAM MCD-3
standard. This interface allows OSIRIS to control and exchange data
with the development tool and engine ECU. OSIRIS is supplied with a
new electronic angular encoder (FFR-M) which
permits to manage multiple singularities target, such as
30x2 – 2

Vehicle simulation on
an engine test bed
|
During SIA Congress
focused on Diesel Engine, common work of IFP and D2T about Road load simulation
on an engine test bed Simulation have been presented
by Florent PEREZ (D2T), Philippe MOULIN (IFP) and Alessio DEL
MASTRO (IFP).
Sum-up:
The race for engine
consumption and pollutant emission reduction requires engines development
time reduction and optimisation. These problems bring engine test bed to
become measuring systems more and more powerful and versatile.
This test bed
functionalities enrichment drives automation system evolutions. One of
these is the integration of real time simulation execution in MORPHEE 2
which makes it possible to the engine control engineers to anticipate
control strategies development (read the article on the below link)

Shell Eco-marathon

La joliverie
Marcel Callo
ENSAM Bordeaux
|
The 2008 Edition of Marathon
Shell has taken place for the last year in Nogaro. The weather was very
changeable - sun and torrential rains – and a strong wind on
Saturday has perturbated the race, and did not allowed team to reach their
best record.
D2T sponsored 3 teams which had
all good performances in their category:
1. Lycée La Joliverie with Microjoule team arrived first with a good advance on everybody (3382 km/litre
with SP95). OSIRIS combustion analysis system allowed them to go to go
further in their settings improvement.
2. The Marcel Callo
secondary school arrived first in the diesel categories (1075 km / litre) and LPG (1910 km / litre). The training in combustion and MFB given by D2T was very
beneficial.
3. ENSAM Bordeaux used for the
first time its vehicle equipped with a new motor still at the stage of
development, of which first tuning were accomplished at D2T. The car made a
1522 km/litre with SP95 (14th to the general). A big potential for this
vehicle, still to finish and validate.
Shell decided to choose another circuit race in Europe for 2009 edition. It will be probably in Germany, circuit remains to confirm.
