Powertrain Performance Engineering

Powertrain Performance Engineering

The engineering of low emission powertrains is nowadays extremely challenging. To fit with drastic regulations and market expectations, it must be designed to reach the appropriate performance levels during integration and meet fuel economy, drivability, energy management, and NVH and acoustics objectives.

Siemens PLM Software simulation and testing solutions trace the energy balance of your powertrain at a full vehicle level, validate the appropriate controls, optimize motor noise, resolve driveline NVH and drivability issues and ensure smooth integration.

New mobility and market globalization put pressure to another level in the transportation industry. In addition to that, reducing greenhouse gas emissions is higher than ever on the agenda of OEMs and suppliers. In addition to tremendous efforts being done in the domain of electrified vehicles, the optimization of conventional powertrain can still make a difference in achieving worldwide environmental regulations. Engineering fuel efficient yet nice to drive vehicles involves the development of complex powertrain systems and architectures, development that needs to remain cost and time-efficient. In that context, engineering departments need to implement appropriate tools and methodologies to support powertrain engineering complexity and mechatronic innovation.

Siemens PLM Software offers simulation and testing solutions enabling powertrain engineering departments to optimize powertrain systems performance and emissions whilst meeting NVH objectives. Our solutions make it possible to frontload design exploration, validation and integration throughout all development stages. It supports multi-attribute performance engineering of mechatronic systems over different phases in development, from requirements capturing and target setting, architecture selection and evaluation, detailed engineering of powertrain subsystems to powertrain integration and controls validation.
