Taking it to the next levelThe desire to bring this seminar to the forefront of hybrid training, I am presently building a fully functioning Honda Insight CVT on a test stand. The test stand will allow easy access to all hybrid electrical and mechanical systems, as well as allowing simulation of the real world conditions that use assist and regen, so all of the hybrid systems can be studied and diagnosed under actual load conditions. Two motor generators will be attached to the drive axles to do the simulation of climbing hills and acceleration as well as declining hills and deceleration.
The development of this unique teaching tool is followed in the : BlueBird1 Blog on this site. Got the most of the main components mounted, still have a lot of work to do.
