Abstract

In engineering education, traditional teaching approaches cannot sufficiently help students to learn electric vehicle (EV) concepts. In this study, the design of an educational test setup including all the components and all dynamics of EVs is implemented, and case studies for engineering education with practical applications are discussed. The proposed test and training platform not only provides hands-on experience for engineering students, but also the opportunity for expert users to test their own designed algorithms on the test setup through a computer and human–machine interface device. The aim of the study is to show students the effects of road slope, vehicle weight and energy recovery parameters on a light EV. In this context, five case studies have been carried out by the students, and a survey was conducted with them. The survey results show that the test setup can help them better comprehend any EV system and develop their professional knowledge and skills.
