The main aim of this presented work is to implement a hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) environment based on Dymola which runs on a normal Microsoft Windows Personal Com-puter. An energy storage test bench is connected by an ana-logue and digital data input/output card with the Dymola simulation computer. With this proposed system, particularly long-time simulations with sample rates up to 30 Hz can be executed very cost effective. Typical applications are simulations of drive cycles to test energy storage systems in electrified vehicles such as batteries or fuel cells. Other application ex-amples are the verification of battery models, thermal management models or battery management sys-tem (BMS) models. In this paper all methods used for implementation are described in detail. Especially the concept of inter-process communication and the concept for real-time and simulation time synchronization is discused. An application example which uses the provided concept is also shown at in this paper. In this example a longitudinal simulation of a vehicle is pre-sented. The startup phase of the internal combusting engine model and a short drive cycle in combination with a connected real battery is shown.
