10 Hardware and characteristics of the MUTE prototype 108 and “turn counterclockwise”. These are fed to H bridges 1 , which power the motors which are running on 12 Volt. The main fan is driven by a �� PWM signal whose active cycle is given by an analogue output. The servo motor - potentiometer combination for the heater control might be replaced with a digital potentiometer integrated circuit. 10.8 Parameterisation for the MUTE car Some parameters related to the MUTE car could only be estimated since the car is not built, yet. They have to be measured and adapted once a prototype exists in order to achieve the best control. The heat transfer can be measured by testing how much heating power is required to keep the car’s interior at a constant temperature. A better estimation of the heat capacity of the interior parts (seats etc.) built into the prototype a can be done. The fan characteristics in the system with all ducts and outlets attached has to be measured and the curve (shown in Figure 10.4) has to be adapted. Moreover, the relationships between the flap opening angles and the air mass flow percentage passing it have to be quantified with the ducts attached (cf. Section 3.2.5). All other air flow related values in the objectives could be corrected as well. The air speed on the windscreen (equation 3.11 and the air speed towards the passengers (cf. Section 10.2) can be adapted to measurement data. One important relationship to find is the one between the battery cooling air flow and its PWM-set value (see Section 10.5). The heater potentiometer angle to set- temperature will also need calibration. 1 A semiconductor device used for motor control.
11 Matlab implementation The climate controller is integrated into the Matlab Simulink model for the MUTE car control. All time critical tasks like the driving functionality are done in this program running on the dSpace MicroAutoBox. The in- and output specifications for the climate control block can be seen in Appendix B. 11.1 Model structure The sensor input values will first enter a block called input validator (in Figure 11.1 yellow on the left side). The containing routines check, if the data is within the sensor limitations and if the servo motors are working. The scaling of the values into the later assumed ranges and unit conversion are done as well. The servo motor positions are transferred into percent of air flow trough them. The absolute humidity of the cabin and the ambient air is calculated. Found errors and the sensor values (or replacements) are the output. The model has three working modes: Automatic, manual and off. A logic (grey block on the left in Figure 11.1) decides which one of them is active. Disabling not used mode-blocks is done to safe computing time. The second grey block uses these activation signals to forward the desired control signal to the output. If the controller is switched off (at start-up or during shut-down) the off-settings (cyan, at the bottom) are activated. Fan and heater are turned off and the air inlet flap brought to the full recirculation position. The automatic control in the upper cyan block becomes active if the controller is switched on and the automatic or the precondition mode is chosen. Its structure will be described in Section 11.2. The activation of the manual mode permits the user to directly control the output temperature and air flow as well as the outlet (foot/defrost).
