Abstract :
Traction system based on electric driven Continuously Variable Transmission (e-CVT) is widely used in full hybrid powertrain for passenger cars. This paper aims to facilitate the understanding of this technology and its potential by describing the principle of operation and introducing a simple criteria for the specification of the electric machines of the transmission. A new layout solution for input type e-CVT, based on coaxially and concentric machine is proposed in this paper.
