Abstract:

We modeled electrical tractor''s system and driving parts using model-based design (MBD) and an automotive simulation model (ASM). Conventionally, researchers have used empirical approaches or have analyzed partial aspects of the system in order to develop an electrical tractor. Studies applying MBD to the parts and entire system of the electrical tractor, as is the case in the present study, have been next to non-existent. Therefore, we used the Simulink-based ASM and the Carsim, which simulate and interpret the dynamic characteristics of tractors, and analyzed the design factors of an electrical tractor. By simulating the driving system and conducting an actual test of the electrical tractor, we determined whether the electrical tractor is a suitable replacement for the existing mechanical tractor. This study could serve as the basis for research on the comprehensive dynamic interpretation necessary for designing an electrical tractor and could also provide guidelines for designing an electrical motor-based system.
