TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automation control, in particular to a testing method and device for a vehicle reducer, a vehicle and a storage medium. BACKGROUND
[0002] Under the background of rapid development of pure electric vehicles, the performance of the electric drive system reducer as a core component is directly related to the vehicle power, economy and driving experience. However, the existing technology for evaluating the performance of the reducer is mostly limited to steady-state conditions, and the efficiency, reliability and other static indicators are analyzed by formula or empirical method, ignoring the influence of dynamic and transient conditions on the performance of the reducer in actual driving, which leads to deviation between the evaluation results and the real use scene.
[0003] During the driving process of new energy vehicles, the torque and speed of the reducer change constantly with the vehicle acceleration, deceleration, energy recovery and other conditions, which puts higher requirements on the efficiency, service life and NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) performance of the reducer. However, the current simulation method and testing method often focus on the performance of the reducer under constant conditions, and lack a comprehensive and accurate evaluation method for the performance of the reducer under dynamic or transient conditions. Specifically, when constructing the simulation model, the dynamic conditions are not considered enough, resulting in a large difference between the predicted performance of the reducer (such as transmission efficiency, service life and NVH indicators) and the actual vehicle performance during operation; at the same time, there is a lack of effective dynamic simulation testing method, which makes it impossible to comprehensively evaluate the performance of the reducer under complex driving conditions during design, which not only affects the performance optimization of the reducer, but also limits the overall performance improvement of electric vehicles.

[0036] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a test method for a vehicle reducer according to one embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:
[0037] Step S102: Obtain the rigid body model and mesh model of the reducer.
[0038] Optionally, the execution subject in this embodiment is a simulation test system. It should be noted that other electronic devices and processors can also be used as the execution subject, and no further limitations are made here.
[0039] In the technical solution provided in step S102 of the present invention, firstly, the simulation test system uses multibody dynamics software to establish a multibody dynamics model of the reducer. This model treats each component of the reducer (such as the input shaft, intermediate shaft, output shaft, gears, and housing) as rigid bodies, without considering the deformation of internal parts, and only simulates the relative motion and forces between them. In the rigid body model, the system can define the constraint relationships (such as interference fits) and contact relationships (such as face-to-face contact between gears) between the components to reflect the physical connection and action mode of each part in the actual reducer. Subsequently, detailed finite element (FEA) modeling is performed on the key components of the reducer, dividing the input shaft, intermediate shaft, gears, bearings, and housing into multiple meshes to form a hexahedral or tetrahedral mesh model to more accurately simulate the mechanical behavior and internal stress distribution of the components. Finally, the properties of the finite element model mesh are configured, including material properties (such as elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio), boundary conditions, and contact properties, to ensure that the model can accurately reflect the actual physical state.
[0040] Specifically, multibody dynamics (MBD) refers to the study of the motion of a system composed of multiple rigid bodies (or a combination of rigid and deformable bodies) under the action of forces, in order to predict the dynamic response of complex mechanical systems.
[0041] Specifically, finite element analysis (FEA) is a numerical analysis method that simulates the mechanical response of a complex object by decomposing it into many small, simple elements (finite element meshes). It is suitable for solving stress, strain, and displacement distribution problems of complex-shaped objects under various loads.
[0042] As an optional implementation, a rigid body model and mesh model of the reducer are established using commercial multibody dynamics software and finite element analysis software (such as ANSYS or ABAQUS). First, a simplified rigid body dynamics model is established in ADAMS. Then, detailed finite element mesh generation and material property configuration are performed in ANSYS or ABAQUS. Finally, the contact surface information of the finite element model is imported into ADAMS to complete model integration.
[0043] It is worth noting that rigid body models are used to quickly determine the kinematic characteristics of the reducer under different operating conditions, while mesh models can analyze the internal stress and strain distribution of components under dynamic loads in depth, thereby more accurately predicting the dynamic response of the reducer. Furthermore, the introduction of finite element mesh models significantly improves the accuracy of simulation analysis, enabling the capture of subtle mechanical changes within components, which is crucial for understanding the fatigue life and reliability of the reducer.
[0044] Step S104: Determine multiple model contact surfaces based on the rigid body model.
[0045] In the technical solution provided in step S104 of the present invention, the reducer structure is decomposed based on the rigid body model, and all possible contact surfaces are identified, including gear meshing surfaces, bearing-shaft contact surfaces, bearing-housing contact surfaces, and the connection surfaces between the housing and other components. Physical properties, such as surface roughness, friction coefficient, and material properties, are defined for the identified contact surfaces, and the physical properties of the contact surface model are ensured to match the actual situation. Furthermore, the contact type is configured according to the properties of each contact surface, such as surface-to-surface contact, point-to-surface contact, or line-to-line contact, to reflect the type of actual physical contact.
[0046] Specifically, the contact surfaces are the surfaces on which the internal components of the reducer, such as gears, bearings, and housings, directly interact. These surfaces can be defined in dynamic analysis to simulate actual physical contact and force transmission.
[0047] As an alternative implementation, automated scripts or plugins can be used to assist in identifying contact surfaces in rigid body models and automatically configuring contact properties. For example, a Python script can be developed to read rigid body models in ADAMS, automatically identify all potential contact surfaces, and configure contact properties, such as friction coefficient and contact type, according to preset rules. This approach can significantly improve the efficiency of contact surface identification and configuration for large and complex models.
[0048] It is worth noting that accurate contact surface definition and physical property configuration can more realistically reflect the interaction between internal components of the reducer, which can improve the accuracy of simulation analysis. Reasonable contact type configuration and friction coefficient setting reduce the calculation error in multibody dynamics simulation, making the simulation results closer to the performance under actual working conditions.
[0049] Step S106: Determine the mesh connection relationship of the mesh model based on multiple model contact surfaces.
[0050] In the technical solution provided in step S106 of the present invention, the mesh nodes related to the contact surface in the finite element mesh model are grouped. This typically includes meshes of key contact areas such as bearing raceway surfaces and gear tooth surfaces. Necessary physical properties, such as material properties, contact properties, and boundary conditions, are configured for the grouped meshes to ensure that they accurately reflect the actual physical state in the simulation. Furthermore, the system can define the connection relationships between mesh nodes of each contact surface in the mesh model, such as fixed connections, contact connections, or sliding connections, to simulate the connection methods between actual components.
[0051] Specifically, mesh grouping refers to grouping the mesh nodes related to the contact surface in the finite element mesh model. This usually includes the meshes of key contact areas such as bearing raceway surfaces and gear tooth surfaces.
[0052] Specifically, the mesh attribute configuration assigns necessary physical properties to grouped meshes, such as material properties, contact properties, and boundary conditions, to ensure that they accurately reflect the actual physical state in the simulation.
[0053] As an optional implementation, the mesh connection relationship of each contact surface can be manually defined in the finite element analysis software, including selecting the mesh nodes of the contact surface and configuring contact properties such as friction coefficient and contact stiffness.
[0054] It's worth noting that in finite element analysis, the relationships between mesh nodes describe how the physical connections between components are simulated, including fixed, contact, or sliding connections. They also describe parameters of the physical properties of the contact surfaces in the mesh model, such as the coefficient of friction, contact stiffness, and viscous damping, used to simulate the mechanical behavior of actual contact surfaces in the simulation. Furthermore, the basic elements in the finite element mesh model describe the model's geometry and physical properties, and the connection relationships between mesh nodes directly affect the simulation accuracy.
[0055] Step S108: Perform simulation performance testing on the mesh model based on the target working conditions and mesh connection relationship, and obtain test results, including the test transmission efficiency and test noise value of the reducer.
[0056] In the technical solution provided in step S108 of the present invention, a series of target operating conditions are set according to the real-world driving scenario of the vehicle, including but not limited to acceleration, deceleration, and constant speed driving (dynamic operating conditions). For each operating condition, parameters such as input torque, rotational speed, and duration are defined. The aforementioned operating conditions are converted into dynamic loads on a mesh model. Considering the mesh connection relationship, corresponding forces and torques are applied to the contact surface to simulate the actual operating environment.
[0057] Specifically, multibody dynamics software is used to simulate the mesh model under specified operating conditions, calculating the motion parameters and contact stresses of each component inside the reducer, thereby obtaining mechanical performance data such as transmission efficiency. Furthermore, the excitation vibration obtained from the dynamic simulation can be used as input to acoustic analysis software to simulate noise propagation during reducer operation and calculate the reducer's noise level.
[0058] Specifically, transmission efficiency is an indicator that measures the energy transmission capability of a reducer, namely the ratio of output power to input power, which reflects the degree of energy loss in the energy conversion process of the reducer.
[0059] Specifically, the test noise value refers to the noise level generated by the reducer under specific operating conditions. It is usually expressed as sound pressure level (dB) and is one of the key parameters for evaluating the NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) performance of a vehicle.
[0060] It is worth noting that the above steps can accurately simulate the operation of the reducer under actual working conditions in a virtual environment, obtain test transmission efficiency and test noise values, provide quantitative data support for the design optimization of the reducer, and predict its performance in the early stage of design without actually manufacturing a reducer prototype, effectively shortening the R&D cycle and reducing development costs.
[0061] Furthermore, this solution is not limited to transmission efficiency, but can also assess the noise level of the reducer, enabling a comprehensive analysis of the reducer's performance and helping to comprehensively evaluate the overall NVH performance of the vehicle.
[0062] Steps S102 to S108 above show that, in this invention, by acquiring the rigid body model and mesh model of the reducer, and determining multiple model contact surfaces based on the rigid body model, the purpose of determining the mesh connection relationship of the mesh model based on the multiple model contact surfaces is achieved. This achieves the technical effect of conducting simulation performance testing on the mesh model based on the target working condition and mesh connection relationship, and obtaining test results. The test results include the test transmission efficiency and test noise value of the reducer, thereby solving the technical problem of the lack of a test method for dynamic simulation testing of vehicle reducers in the prior art.
[0063] The method described in this embodiment will now be described in further detail.
[0064] Step S1021: Perform three-dimensional modeling of the reducer using preset modeling software to obtain a rigid body model;
[0065] Step S1022: Perform finite element modeling on the rigid body model to obtain a mesh model.
[0066] In this embodiment, a digital model of the reducer's geometry is created using pre-defined 3D modeling software (such as SolidWorks, CATIA, or NX) based on the reducer's design drawings or physical prototype. At this stage, the model is treated as a rigid body, disregarding elastic deformation of the material, and is primarily used to determine the reducer's external dimensions and the relative positions of its components. Further, the rigid body model is refined by using finite element modeling software (such as ANSYS, ABAQUS, or COMSOL) to divide the reducer's components into multiple tiny meshes, forming a mesh model. This step allows the model to more accurately simulate the material's mechanical behavior, including stress, strain, and displacement.
[0067] Specifically, a rigid body model refers to a model in physics and engineering that treats an object as an indeformable object, used to simplify the calculation of physical motion and ignore the elastic deformation effect of the material itself.
[0068] Specifically, a mesh model refers to a model used in finite element analysis that decomposes a solid into a large number of tiny units, i.e., a mesh, to accurately simulate the distribution of forces and deformations inside a material.

[0075] 6) The connection relationship between the reducer assembly and the outside, that is, the suspension point on the reducer is fixed to the outside.
[0076] As another alternative implementation method, obtaining the mesh model may include finite element modeling of key components (input shaft, intermediate shaft, first-stage driven gear, output shaft, bearing, housing):
[0077] 1) The input shaft is divided into a hexahedral mesh model, consisting of a shaft part and a tooth part. The shaft mesh is defined as follows: the radial mesh size is one-sixth to one-tenth of the minimum diameter of the input shaft, and the axial mesh size is one-quarter to one-eighth of the minimum shaft segment length.

[0083] It is worth noting that rigid body models can be used for preliminary kinematic analysis, such as relative motion and collision detection between components, laying the foundation for subsequent mechanical analysis. Mesh models, on the other hand, provide refined mechanical analysis capabilities, enabling the calculation of stress and strain distributions in various components within the reducer under different loads, thus providing a basis for evaluating material strength and structural reliability. The resulting models provide a necessary virtual platform for subsequent dynamic simulations and acoustic analyses, making subsequent simulation testing possible.
[0084] Step S1041: Obtain multiple connection relationships of multiple parts in the rigid body model;
[0085] Step S1042: Determine multiple model contact surfaces based on multiple connection relationships.
[0086] In this embodiment, the connection relationships between parts are extracted from the rigid body model using multibody dynamics software (such as ADAMS). These relationships include, but are not limited to, fixed connections, rotational connections, and sliding connections. These relationships reflect the physical contact and constraints during actual assembly. Based on these connection relationships, the system can identify the contact surfaces where parts directly interact, such as tooth surface contact between gears, contact between bearings and shafts, and contact between bearings and housings.
[0087] Furthermore, the software uses a contact surface definition tool to set attributes for the identified contact surfaces, including contact type (surface-to-surface, point-to-surface, or line-to-surface contact) and contact attributes (such as friction coefficient and contact stiffness), to ensure that the model can accurately reflect the actual physical contact during dynamic simulation.
[0088] Specifically, in a rigid body model, the contact surface refers to the surface on which two or more parts come into direct contact.
[0089] As an alternative implementation method, the built-in tools of multibody dynamics software (such as ADAMS) can be used to automatically or manually identify the connection relationships and contact surfaces in the rigid body model, and the contact properties can be directly defined through the software interface, which is suitable for users familiar with the software operation.
[0090] As another alternative implementation, scripts (such as Python scripts) can be written to interact with multibody dynamics software. The scripts automatically extract the connection relationships in the model, thereby helping to identify contact surfaces, and control the software to automatically set contact properties. This method is suitable for batch processing or automated simulation needs.
[0091] It is worth noting that through the above steps, the system can acquire and define the precise contact relationships and contact surface properties between the various parts of the reducer, providing important basic data for subsequent dynamic performance simulation and acoustic analysis. Furthermore, the accurate definition of the contact surfaces, especially the reasonable setting of contact types and properties, significantly improves the accuracy of multibody dynamics simulation and acoustic simulation, making the simulation results closer to actual operating conditions.
[0092] Step S1081: Determine the step size and test time period for the simulation performance test;
[0093] Step S1082: Determine multiple time points from the test time period based on the step size value;
[0094] Step S1083: Obtain multiple output speeds and multiple output torques corresponding to multiple time points, wherein each time point corresponds to one output speed and one output torque;
[0095] Step S1084: Calculate and test the transmission efficiency based on multiple output speeds and multiple output torques.
[0096] In this embodiment, the simulation test time step (e.g., 0.01s) and total test duration (e.g., 3.5s) are set according to the nature of the target operating condition and simulation requirements to ensure the accuracy of the results and computational efficiency. Based on the set step value, multiple time points are evenly distributed throughout the entire test period, with each time point used to acquire specific transient output parameters of the reducer. At each time point, the output speed and output torque of multiple components in the reducer are extracted from the mesh model, reflecting the real-time performance of the reducer under dynamic operating conditions. Using the acquired output speed and output torque of multiple components, combined with the input torque and speed, the average or instantaneous transmission efficiency of the reducer over the entire test period is calculated.
[0097] Specifically, after the system obtains the transmission efficiency of multiple parts, it can perform a comprehensive calculation on the transmission efficiency of multiple parts and obtain the final power transmission efficiency of the reducer.
[0098] As an alternative implementation method, after setting the target working conditions and mesh connection relationship in multibody dynamics simulation software (such as ADAMS), dynamic simulation can be performed directly. The software automatically records the output speed and output torque at each time point, and engineers can then calculate the transmission efficiency through data analysis tools.
[0099] It is worth noting that the transmission efficiency of the reducer was continuously tested under dynamic conditions, obtaining output parameters at a series of time points, thus enabling the evaluation of its dynamic performance. Simultaneously, by utilizing multibody dynamics and finite element mesh models, combined with actual operating parameters, high-precision output speed and torque data can be obtained, ensuring accurate calculation of transmission efficiency. Furthermore, through analysis of the output parameters, the transmission efficiency of the reducer under dynamic operating conditions can be calculated, providing a means to quantitatively evaluate its energy conversion efficiency.
[0100] Step S1085: Obtain multiple initial steady-state conditions;
[0101] Step S1086: Transform multiple initial steady-state conditions to obtain the target condition.
[0102] In this embodiment, a set of steady-state operating parameters, such as constant torque, constant speed, and duration, are obtained from industry standards for reducers. These parameters represent the stable operating state of the reducer under specific working conditions. Furthermore, based on the transient characteristics of the vehicle during actual driving, the obtained steady-state operating parameters are transformed, i.e., the rate of change of torque and speed and the duration are adjusted to simulate dynamic operating conditions such as deceleration, acceleration, or changes in road conditions.
[0103] Specifically, the aforementioned target operating conditions are the operating parameters faced by the reducer under simulated vehicle dynamic driving conditions after conversion, including instantaneous torque, speed change rate, and duration, which are closer to actual application scenarios.
[0104] For example, there are three different operating conditions: Condition 1, input torque 200 Nm, speed 10000 rpm, duration 2 hours; Condition 2, input torque 100 Nm, speed 15000 rpm, duration 1 hour; Condition 3, input torque 200 Nm, speed 1000 rpm, duration 0.5 hours. These three conditions can be converted into 3600 cycles of Condition 4, where Condition 4 consists of cycles with input torque 200 Nm, speed 10000 rpm, duration 2 seconds; input torque 100 Nm, speed 15000 rpm, duration 1 second; and input torque 200 Nm, speed 1000 rpm, duration 0.5 seconds, totaling 3.5 seconds of continuous operating conditions.
[0105] As an alternative implementation, by analyzing vehicle driving data, such as acceleration and speed changes extracted from the vehicle data recorder, these actual dynamic data are transformed into dynamic operating conditions related to the reducer, in order to more realistically simulate the actual operating environment.
[0106] It is worth noting that by starting from a single steady-state condition and transforming parameters, multiple target conditions were generated, increasing the comprehensiveness and complexity of the simulation test and better reflecting the performance of the reducer under different driving conditions. At the same time, the setting of the target conditions can more closely approximate the transient conditions in actual driving, such as acceleration, deceleration, and changes in road conditions, providing more realistic load conditions for dynamic performance testing.
[0107] Step S1087: Obtain multiple acceleration values corresponding to multiple time points;
[0108] Step S1088: Input multiple acceleration values into the preset acoustic analysis software to obtain the analysis results;
[0109] Step S1089: Based on the analysis results, model the mesh model to obtain the acoustic model;
[0110] Step S10810: Obtain multiple test points of the acoustic model, wherein the test points are the locations where noise values are measured;
[0111] Step S10811: Calculate the multiple noise values corresponding to multiple test points to obtain the test noise value.
[0112] In this embodiment, acceleration values at multiple time points are obtained from multibody dynamics simulation (based on the target operating condition and mesh connection relationship). These acceleration values reflect the vibration state of each component inside the reducer during the dynamic simulation process. These acceleration values are used as excitation sources and input into a preset acoustic analysis software (such as LMS Virtual.Lab or Simcenter Acoustics) for acoustic response analysis. Based on the analysis results of the acoustic software, an acoustic model of the reducer is established, including noise source localization, sound field distribution, and propagation path. In the acoustic model, multiple test points are set according to actual conditions. These points are typically located around the reducer to measure the noise level at different locations. Furthermore, the noise values at each test point at multiple time points are calculated using the built-in functions of the acoustic software or a custom script. Finally, the noise level of the reducer under dynamic operating conditions is obtained by summarizing the results.
[0113] Specifically, acoustic analysis software refers to software tools specifically designed to simulate and analyze sound propagation, sound field distribution, and their impact on the environment. These tools can calculate and predict noise levels in a virtual environment.
[0114] As an alternative implementation, software tools with dual functions of multibody dynamics simulation and acoustic analysis, such as Simcenter, can be used to complete the entire process from dynamics simulation to acoustic analysis directly in the same software environment, thereby simplifying the steps of data transmission and model conversion.
[0115] As another alternative implementation, dynamic performance testing is first performed in multibody dynamics simulation software (such as ADAMS) to output acceleration data, and then this data is imported into specialized acoustic analysis software (such as LMS Virtual.Lab) for noise simulation analysis.
[0116] It is worth noting that by acoustically converting and analyzing the internal acceleration values of the reducer, its noise level under dynamic operating conditions was predicted, providing quantitative data for NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) performance evaluation. Furthermore, by establishing an acoustic model of the reducer, the location of noise sources and sound field distribution under different operating conditions can be studied.
[0117] Step S110: Calculate the lifespan of multiple parts in the reducer based on the linear damage algorithm, where each part corresponds to a lifespan.
[0118] Step S112: Determine the static strength safety factor and contact stress distribution image of the reducer based on the lifespan of multiple components.
[0119] In this embodiment, the simulation testing system can also evaluate the cumulative damage of each component inside the reducer under different dynamic working conditions based on the linear damage algorithm, and then calculate the life of each component. That is, the stress data under dynamic working conditions is compared with the fatigue life curve of the material to determine the life of each component under the working condition.
[0120] Furthermore, based on the calculated component lifespan and the expected service life, the static strength safety factor of the reducer is calculated to assess its reliability within the expected lifespan. Based on the dynamic simulation results and the contact model of the components, a distribution image of the internal contact stress of the reducer is generated, visually displaying the stress state of each contact surface under different working conditions.
[0121] Specifically, the linear damage algorithm is an algorithm for evaluating the accumulation of fatigue damage in materials. It is based on the relationship between stress amplitude and fatigue life, and calculates the cumulative damage degree to which a material reaches fatigue failure under repeated loading.
[0122] Specifically, component life refers to the expected operating time of a component under specific working conditions until fatigue failure or damage occurs.
[0123] Specifically, the static strength safety factor is a measure of the ratio of the actual strength of a part to the failure load when it is subjected to static (or average) load, reflecting the reliability of the part within its design life.
[0124] Specifically, a contact stress distribution image refers to an image that can be obtained through finite element simulation, showing the stress distribution on the contact surface of a part, which helps to identify high-stress areas and potential fault points.
[0125] As an alternative implementation method, finite element analysis software (such as ANSYS or ABAQUS) can be used. These software programs typically integrate linear damage algorithms and life prediction functions. Users only need to correctly set the operating parameters and material properties to automatically calculate the life of the part and analyze the static strength safety factor and contact stress distribution.
[0126] It is worth noting that, based on dynamic working conditions and linear damage algorithms, the lifespan of each component within the reducer can be accurately predicted, which helps in assessing the overall reliability and maintenance cycle of the reducer. Furthermore, the determined static strength safety factor can provide a reliability assessment of components under static loads, while the generated contact stress distribution image visually displays the stress state of each contact surface, helping technicians identify weak points in the design and perform targeted optimization.
