Services
The Institute of Thermodynamics and Sustainable Propulsion Systems offers the following services:
-
PHEM
PHEM is a detailed simulation model for the 1Hz simulation of individual vehicles and vehicle fleets with regard to fuel and energy consumption, pollutant emissions and emissions from abrasion processes. The PHEM software was developed by the Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) in cooperation with the Research Association for Combustion Engines and Thermodynamics (FVT).
-
PHEMlight
Like its sister model PHEM, the software PHEMlight is a time-resolved model for simulating fuel consumption and pollutant emissions of road vehicles. PHEMlight is based on the models of PHEM, but is simplified in many elements compared to PHEM and thus tailor-made for a model linkage with microscale traffic models.
-
NEMO
The simulation tool NEMO is a mesoscale emission model for vehicles, railways and ships on transport networks. It is a tailor-made solution e.g. for air quality modelling tasks and emission inventories.
-
VECTO IT Integration
We offer solutions to integrate the VECTO simulation tool into your IT infrastructure and to automate the simulation processes.
-
VECTO Trailer Tool IT Integration
We offer solutions to integrate the VECTO simulation tool into your IT infrastructure and to automate the simulation processes.
-
Passenger car chassis dynamometer
Roller dynamometer for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. The test stand can be operated in stationary and transient mode, whereby both braking and towing operation is possible.
-
Truck roller dynamometer
Roller dynamometer for heavy commercial vehicles. The test stand can be operated in stationary and transient mode, whereby both braking and towing operation are possible. Diesel, petrol, natural gas or hydrogen-powered vehicles can be measured.
-
On-board measuring systems
For on-board measurements, various systems are available for passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LNF), heavy commercial vehicles and construction machinery.
