The stability of motion and handling, mobility and fuel consumption of an all-wheel drive automobile depend on how the engine power is distributed among the front and rear axles and then between the left and right wheels of each axle. This power distribution is dependent on the properties of the driveline system and its power-dividing units (PDU) located between the drive axles and between the wheels of each drive axle. This paper presents a generalized driveline model and a computer algorithm. This model provides a way to model the power distribution among the four drive wheels of the automobile when using any of the existent passive power dividing units: open differentials, locked units, limited slip differentials with different locker properties and other mechanisms. The computer computational algorithm allows transferring each PDU from one state to another as a function of i) changes in the driving conditions, ii) the properties of the power-dividing unit, iii) variations in the mass and geometry parameters of the vehicle, and iv) its other systems (tires, suspension, transmission and engine). Using this generalized model and the computational algorithm in a MATLAB/Simulink environment, a program package is developed to embed into a computer model (user interested in investigating the effect of various driveline types on the dynamics of an all-wheel drive automobile). The paper presents examples of utilization of the above program package in investigating the features of curvilinear motion of an all-wheel drive automobile.

This article presents the results of analysis of power distribution in an electric vehicle independent all-wheel drive. The utilized method of velocity distribution takes into account the change in the motion resistance occurring on particular wheel. Moreover, the method of determining the change of vertical loads on traction wheels is also described. Theoretical considerations were verified on a dedicated laboratory stand that allows to perform real time simulation for analysed powertrain structure. The results of two different scenarios of vehicle driving in curvilinear motion are presented.

The problem of power supply to remote consumers in the “Baikal-Khövsgöl” Cross-Border Recreation Area, associated with the high length and low reliability of power lines is discussed. The assessment of the modes of the power distribution grid showed that the introduction of new consumers in this territory will lead to unacceptable voltage deviations, even taking into account the installation of reactive power compensating devices. Since the area under consideration has a high solar energy potential, it is advisable to use distributed solar generation. The choice of locations and capacities of solar power plants is a multi-criteria optimization problem. Four criteria are proposed: total voltage deviation, total active power losses, reliability and capital costs for construction. An algorithm for multi-criteria optimizationis developed and implemented as a program in the MATLAB, which consists in sequential verification of the feasibility of installing additional power of solar power plants at the consumers of each of the substations under consideration. For each variant, the electric grid mode is assessed using the Power system analysis toolbox program. Solutions for the choice of locations and capacities of solar power plants are obtained, providing high scores by criteria in accordance with the given criteria importance coefficients.
