Summary:Hardware in the loop (HIL)/rapid control prototyping (RCP) is generally acknowledged to be a cost- and time-effective approach to test controllers/components/subsystems in a system context. Argonne National Laboratory has been using HIL to evaluate the potential of a plug-in hybrid battery in a vehicle (battery HIL). Argonne has also constructed a vehicle platform on wheels to evaluate different power train components on a chassis dynamometer - the mobile advanced technology testbed (MATT). This paper describes these two HIL projects and gives some preliminary results on all electric range (AER) tests conducted on both HIL platforms. These results are compared to simulation results obtained from Argonne's power train system analysis toolkit (PSAT).
