If you are in possession of bona-fides, then I petition you to release the raw information, from the source.
A BSFC-e motor map would be extremely insightful!  |
Why would I release them even if I had them, I believe them to be insignificant, for EVs and ICEs. A simple search for Leaf motor efficiency tells you that the percentage change is around 7%, but that is not analogous necessarily.
Double standards here from aerohead again. Factors that supposedly invalidate throttle stop testing are ignored when it is a calculation done by aerohead.
Have you considered the extra effects of switching losses in the mosfets/IGBTs and thermal performance changes?
Have you considered the effects of temperature affecting internal resistance in the cabling and motor?
What about 12v accessory load? The dc/dc converter will change efficiency with different battery voltage.
The motor efficiency and powertrain losses won't be consistent so by your metric can't be assumed to be consistent.
You claim that throttle stop is invalidated by factors and then ignore the same factors when it is your calculation. Which is it? You omitted factors because they are irrelevant and you are wrong about throttle stop testing or you have double standards? I see no other option
