Optimisation of a turbogenerator to improve the fuel efficiency of a diesel-electric hybrid bus
This thesis outlines the development of a one-dimensional simulation of a 2.4-litre diesel engine used on a Wrightbus hybrid bus. The engine model, created using Ricardo WAVE, was validated against an extensive experimental data set and was shown to accurately predict key performance parameters such...
