AVL uses MATHWORKS tool to develop combustion controller MathWorks recently announced that AVL LIST GmbH, the world's largest private company engaged in the development of powertrain systems, has developed a real-time combustion controller using model-based design. Compared with handwritten code, AVL has shortened the development time by about 50% with the help of MathWorks tools.

Engine calibration refers to controlling the engine to achieve the best combustion conditions. The traditional method is to run the engine on the test bench and perform repeated tests, which is a very slow process. In order to solve this problem, AVL has developed a new combustion controller, which can greatly shorten the test time of the engine calibration team on the test bench. AVL uses Simulink to build a system model, verify all the operating conditions of the controller in the simulation environment, and test some destructive tests to protect the engine in the actual test. Real-TIme Workshop and AVL ARTE.Lab tools help the development team quickly generate code from the controller model and run it on the test bench. In addition to shortening the development time, AVL also integrated the new test bench with the controller within two days, reducing the test time by 80% in a recent project.
Dr. Klaus Rothbart, AVL's product manager, said: "The use of the MathWorks tool is the key to the success of our combustion controller, which in turn reduces the test time for our customers of the test bench. The integration of the MathWorks tool gives us advantages because Most of our customers also use MATLAB and Simulink, and they can customize and modify the combustion controller without much familiarization time. "
MathWorks automotive industry marketing manager Jon Friedman said: "As engine technology continues to increase in complexity, calibration testing is still a challenging and time-consuming task for automotive engineers. See AVL on the test bench We are very encouraged by the development and success of the new controller. By using model-based design and MathWorks tools, calibration engineers have improved their test efficiency. "
