Free Online Course from Alison: Diploma in Electric Vehicle Technology

Alison Platform is offering a free online course as a Diploma in Electric Vehicle Technology. In this free online course, you will learn the foundations of designing an Electric Vehicle and its technologies.

Course Description:-

• This free online course in Electric Vehicle Technology will teach you the fundamental principles of designing an electric vehicle.

• With the growing prices in fuel, electric vehicles are more accessible than ever, and with governments pushing car manufacturers to produce more electric vehicles, the future is in electronics.

• If you are an automotive technician, a mechanical or electrical engineer, or just a car enthusiast, this course is for you.

Course Modules:-

• Module 1 Vehicle Dynamics

  • This module will discuss which physical forces act on a moving vehicle and how to perform calculations that will help determine the power required for an engine to overcome these forces.

  • It will also explain how to calculate the amount of energy that will be consumed by an electric vehicle, depending on driving conditions, to establish design parameters for the electric vehicle.

• Module 2 Vehicle Subsystems

  • This module will discuss the basic functions of the electric vehicle's subsystems, including an introduction to the very heart of the electric vehicle, the battery.

• Module 3 Fundamentals Of Electric Vehicles - First Assessment

  • This assessment enables you to review your learning so you can determine your knowledge and understanding of Modules 1 and 2.

• Module 4 Storage For Electric Vehicles

  • This module will discuss how to calculate battery parameters, such as battery life, range, and charging methods.

  • It will also analyze the chemical makeup of different batteries and what to consider when designing a battery to meet certain requirements.

• Module 5 Battery Pack Design

  • This module will discuss how to design a reliable and safe battery pack. It will explain the different stages of the design, such as cell configuration, the structure of the pack, safety, and pack control.

  • It will also analyze the mechanical, thermal, and electrical design of the battery pack and how to implement a good Battery Management System that will monitor the battery pack.

• Module 6 Fundamentals Of Electric Vehicles - Second Assessment

  • This assessment enables you to review your learning so you can determine your knowledge and understanding of Modules 3 and 4.

• Module 7

  • Course Assessments.

Course Outcome:-

At the end of this course, you will be able to:-

• Define gradient Resistance, rolling resistance, and aerodynamic drag.
