Abstract
A number of computer programs have been developed as tools in the evaluation and design of electric and hybrid vehicles. The programs are concerned with vehicle use-pattern characterization, design synthesis, vehicle operation over driving cycles, and transient response of electric/hybrid power trains. Each of the programs is described in some detail and typical results obtained using the programs are discussed in terms of the performance of the General Electric/DOE Near-Term Electric and Hybrid Vehicles. Projections of the performance of advanced electric/hybrid vehicles are also presented based on the computer simulations.
