Virtual ECU calibration

ASCMO has a footprint in combustion engine development and calibration worldwide. But naturally ASCMO also supports use cases in the electric vehicle powertrain system. From global engine efficiency models to thermal component models, accurate modeling with efficient use of data is of great benefit for both steady-state and transient system behavior – regardless of the type of powertrain system.

Honda Research & Development: fuel cell stack power prediction with ASCMO

The Honda Research & Development department used ASCMO to create a model capable of predicting fuel cell stack performance as well as the temperature and pressure in the various parts of the stack in a short computation time. Using Gaussian process regression in ASCMO, the Honda engineers optimized the fuel cell stack performance considering all control parameters and automated the test process using INCA-FLOW from ETAS. As a result, our customer Honda achieved a 6% increase of gross power.
