Generator

Hoi allen.
Ik vraag mij af hoeveel motorvermogen het kost om de generator +70kw te laten leveren.
Iemand die het antwoord weet of handig is met Ai.

Het is al bijna tien uur en BoW heeft nog niet gereageerd!



Die heeft dat allemaal al zover uitgevogeld dat hij er een factsheet over kan schrijven: 'De innerlijke roerselen van de Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV'


Kan meteen als referentie document als sticky op het forum. En verplicht lezen bij nieuwe aanmeldingen

2.0L Outlander PHEV Engine + Generator Power Dynamics
Engine:

2.0L 4-cylinder gasoline engine (code: 4B11)

Peak output: ~87 kW (117 hp) at ~4500 rpm

Primarily used as a generator driver (via MG1), not direct drive except at high speeds

Generator Input/Output from 2.0L ICE
➤ When charging the battery (stationary or during drive):
Parameter Value
Engine power available Up to 87 kW
Typical power used by MG1 25–35 kW (from ICE)
Electrical output from MG1 10–12 kW to battery
Efficiency (engine to battery) ~35–45% overall

So the generator (MG1) typically draws ~25–35 kW from the engine, depending on battery charge level and demand.

➤ In Series Hybrid Mode (driving via generator):

The ICE powers MG1 to send electricity directly to the front and rear motors (not just the battery).

Total draw from ICE: up to ~60–70 kW, depending on speed and load.

MG1 outputs up to ~60 kW of electricity, which powers the motors and/or supplements battery power.

Real-World Example:

If you're driving uphill or accelerating fast and the battery is low:

ICE runs at ~4000 rpm

Generator draws ~60 kW mechanical input

Delivers ~40–50 kW electrical output to drive motors

Remaining power losses are heat and conversion
