For example, a team using aseries hybrid powertrain may require a less dynamic engine model for control development dueto the intrinsically steady engine operating points that a series vehicle may have. Alternatively, apowersplit hybrid vehicle team may require a much more dynamic engine model due to thetransient nature of the engine especially during shifting events.Teams were supplied with Powertrain System Analysis Toolkit (PSAT) as a donation from theUS Department of Energy and facilitated by Argonne National Laboratory.
