Turnkey AVL Transient and dynamic powertrain test system (dynamometer) previously used for professional transmission and driveline R&D. The rig supports both front-wheel and rear-wheel drive setups and delivers laboratory-grade control of torque, speed and energy flows for ICE, EV and hybrid development. Supplied with a 10 m x 8 m acoustically dampened test cell featuring a 2.5 t overhead crane and ducting for a temperature-controlled environment to maintain stable test conditions.
The AVL Transient and dynamic powertrain test system delivers OEM-grade
repeatability and control for high-performance powertrain and motorsport testing.
Originally installed by AVL Austria for DSI Automotive Engineering, the system meets
the standards used by global vehicle manufacturers.
__Possible use cases__
- Transmission, differential and complete driveline durability, NVH and efficiency testing
- Gearshift strategy development, TCU/ECU calibration and HIL/SIL integration
- ICE, hybrid and EV subsystem validation with real-time CAN/EtherCAT I/O
- Accurate reproduction of road, track and regulatory cycles for correlation and certification support
__Technical description__
- Loading system: 2 x AVL DynoForce ASM 4200/0.65-3 (one per 2WD axis)
- Per motor: 4,200 Nm continuous from 0–650 rpm; 290 kW from 650–1,200 rpm; max speed 3,000 rpm; motoring power/torque approx. 10% lower than generating mode; forced-air cooling; low rotor inertia design for dynamic control. Two units provide up to 8,400 Nm and 580 kW combined.
- Prime mover: AVL DynoUltra PMM 500/6-10 electric drive
- 500 Nm continuous from 0–6,000 rpm; 314 kW from 6,000–10,000 rpm; nmax 10,000 rpm; closed-loop water cooling. Can simulate the torque/speed profile of an internal combustion engine or an electric machine, or be replaced by an actual ICE/EV/Hybrid drive unit as required.
- Torque measurement: HBM T40B torque flange, 5 kNm capacity with shunt-cal, ±0.05% accuracy class; operating temperature ?20 to +85 °C; IP54.
- Power and drives: AVL AFC 400/500 IGBT mains converter cabinets with common DC link for multi-axis 4-quadrant operation (regenerative - load power can be stored locally or sent back to grid (Ecofriendly)).
- Control and automation: AVL EMCON with PUMA Open 2, supporting EtherCAT and CAN real-time interfaces and a wide library of AVL device drivers for integrated measurement/control.
- Cycle capability: The rig can accurately simulate and reproduce transient and steady-state real-world conditions—uphill/downhill loading, mixed drive cycles (e.g., NEDC, FTP, SFTP, CLTC), race tracks or any custom trace—enabling tight correlation to on-road data.
- Energy storage emulation: AVL E-Storage High-Dynamic system, 250 kW class with 800 V capability and appropriate PDU/switching hardware, integrated to PUMA.
- Fuel measurement & conditioning: High-accuracy mass flow and temperature conditioning system (FlexFuel) with integrated heating and cooling to maintain constant fuel temperature for repeatable measurement; supports gasoline (incl. alcohol blends) and diesel (incl. biodiesel).
- Actuation systems: Provisions and actuators to control or simulate throttle inputs, gear shifting or clutch operation for automated test execution.
- Fluids conditioning and sensors:
- Engine coolant conditioning (CONSYSCOOL 200) with flow and temperature measurement.
- Automatic transmission lube oil/fluid conditioning system with temperature and flow monitoring.
- FWD and RWD support: The floating isolated T shaped bedplate, driveline supports and adapter sets accommodate both front-wheel and rear-wheel drive transmissions.
- Safety and wiring: Dual-channel speed sensing for safely-limited-speed (SLS) operation; EtherCAT/ECN1313 signal sets; emergency stop/STO cabling; cable support assemblies for X/Y wheelbase alignment.
- Environmental operating range: Typical lab conditions +5 to +40 °C; non-condensing humidity.
- Included test cell package (with sale): 10 m x 8 m acoustically dampened enclosure with integrated 2.5 t overhead crane and possible temperature control for consistent testing.
