Subject(s): Abstract: Projekt ELDRIVET håller samman flera delprojekt under rubriken elektriska drivsystem som i första hand siktar på att förbättra prestanda och livslängd på elektriska drivlinor i fordonsmiljö. Detta sker genom en utveckling av kylmetoder för kraftelektronik och elmotor, utveckling av testmetoder för prestanda och livslängd samt en analys av alternativa krafthalvledare i elektriska drivlinor i fordon.Abstract: The Swedish automotive industry has concluded that electrically driven vehicles will be a part of the future, and that electric drive systems should be a prioritized technical field for Sweden to maintain a competitive automotive industry. The project ELDRIVET include a number of sub projects which all together focus on improving performance and/or durability of electric drive systems in the harsh environment of road vehicles. This is done by focusing on cooling methods of electric motors and power electronics, test methods for performance and durability as well as the usage of Silicon Carbide in power transistors. The project will increase the competence in the Swedish automotive industry within the area of electric drive systems and all available information will be spread between all the project partners during the project meetings. The project also include an effort to increase the interest for automotive technology in society with a focus on high school students.
