The first numerical method is based on computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) and the second one uses a thermal equivalent circuit (TEC).

For the TEC, a discretized one-and-a-half-dimensional model of the induction machine is considered. With the TEC model, stationary and transient operating conditions can be simulated. Measurement results are determined by iron-copper-nickel sensors embedded in the stator winding and the housing, as well as by an IR sensor for measuring the rotor temperature. With these measurement signals, stationary and transient operating conditions can be analyzed. For stationary operating conditions, additionally, the housing temperatures are determined by an IR camera. The investigated simulation and measurement methods reveal different local and global temperatures, and thus, only certain aspects and characteristics of the obtained temperatures can be compared.

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.
