EV 402 — Electric Vehicle Propulsion Systems
Explores how High Voltage Battery Electric (BEV) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) utilize powerful electric motors to provide the necessary force to move vehicles down the road. Lectures on the theory and science behind electromotive force will drive student understanding of how various motors, generators, and transmissions work in BEV/HEV drive systems. Hands on lab activities focus on locating, inspecting, and the proper analysis and diagnosis of high voltage vehicle drive system components and regenerative brake systems. Recommended: Valid driver's license, proof of vehicle insurance, clean driving record.
