The rapid electrification of the automotive industry demands smarter, faster, and safer testing processes. As high-voltage battery systems grow more complex, physical validation of Battery Management Systems (BMS) becomes costly, time-consuming, and safety-critical. This presentation introduces a simulation-based approach that enables precise and efficient BMS testing under realistic conditions. Using a multi-channel battery simulator within a Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) environment, electrical and thermal behaviors of battery cells or modules can be accurately emulated. This method reduces development time and cost, minimizes safety risks, and supports the optimization of algorithms for next-generation electric vehicle batteries.
This session will provide:
- How battery simulation can reduce the cost, complexity, and risk of BMS validation
- What hardware and software elements are required for effective HIL testing of BMS
- How engineers can leverage simulation to accelerate innovation in EV battery development
