Energy ManagementWIDE RANGE OF CAPABILITIES

With GT, it is possible to combine all relevant vehicle sub-systems into a single virtual vehicle model. Such a model may be used to optimize energy flows and minimize energy consumption over transient driving cycles. This approach allows for all sub-system interactions to be accounted for.

GT-SUITE provides a full range of modeling detail such that the modeler can decide on the appropriate balance of model detail for the task at hand. The GT-SUITE solver provides the most advanced solution on the market for efficiently solving large models with many sub-systems.
