Abstract :
This paper presents a concept for the usage of two distributed doubly-fed induction machines in an electric vehicle. The underlying motion model is shown and the general necessity for the usage of an electric differential for the powertrain is explained and simulation results are presented. Using this concept, the mechanical differential gear can be effectively replaced and synchronisation problems as existing with other electric differential solutions can be reduced.
