Dual clutch energy storage

Can a two-speed dual-clutch gearbox be used for electric vehicles?

Most electric vehicles today use gearboxes with multiple speeds. The transmission systems on traditional cars using internal combustion engines can be used for electric vehicles. In this paper, the author presents the research result on the gearshift strategy of a two-speed dual-clutch gearbox applied on electric vehicles for energy efficiency.

Does a multi-gear transmission save energy?

An EV with the multi-gear transmission can enhance both dynamic and economic performances [ 4 ]. The EV with a four-gear transmission can save up to 30% energy. [ 3] shows that only by designing the optimal transmission ratios, energy can be saved up to 15%.

How much energy can an EV save with a four-gear transmission?

The EV with a four-gear transmission can save up to 30% energy. [ 3] shows that only by designing the optimal transmission ratios, energy can be saved up to 15%. In [ 6 ], the authors present a graphical method for the development of dynamic shift schedules. Accordingly, with the drag force of vehicle, the point of transition is determined.
