Powertrain of a modern hybrid vehicles
Novák, Štěpán ; Zajac, Roman (referee) ; Otipka, Václav (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis is about the drivetrain in modern hybrid vehicles. It describes the function of a hybrid drivetrain and divides it according to structure, degree of hybridization and placement of the electric motor. It characterizes the design solution of the main components of a hybrid drivetrain. It focuses on the powertrain of selected hybrid vehicles and describes the emissions issue. The conclusion consists of evaluation of the hybrid drivetrain and its vision for the future.

Solutions for using micro cogeneration in places where are not primarily available gas or liquid fuels
Kubínek, Martin ; Štelcl, Otakar (referee) ; Vojáčková, Jitka (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis deals with the usage of micro cogeneration units in the places where gas and liquid fuels are not primarily available. In the research part, the available technologies and the current condition of the market of micro cogeneration units, which use solid fuels, especially biomass, are described. In the technical-economical part, there is a design of the specific unit whose thermal output corresponds to the thermal rated loss of the chosen building. The payback period of the unit with a gasifier and with a combustion engine is estimated in the cases when the chosen building is currently heated by: lignite, wooden chips, electricity and the combination of natural gas and coke.

Internal combustion engine for Mars and Moon vehicles
Rachůnek, Radek ; Beran, Martin (referee) ; Svída, David (advisor)
The thesis deals with the development of a mathematical model of the internal combustion engine for vehicles used in space missions. It includes a summary of the historical development and the possible future of the vehicles. It describes the external influences acting on the engine, summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of using an internal combustion engine. A separate chapter focuses on fuel selection with respect to the availability of local resources. The next part of the thesis is devoted to the development of a mathematical model according to a sample real engine. Here, the step-by-step process of modifications to create the engine model is described, considering the information from the previous chapters. The thesis includes an evaluation of the internal combustion engine to see if it represents a suitable alternative to current powertrains.

Influence of Powertrain Type on Vehicle Dynamics
Haniška, Jan ; Semela, Marek (referee) ; Bilík, Martin (advisor)
The aim of this master’s thesis is to assess the influence of the vehicle’s powertrain concept on its driving dynamics. The assessment is carried out with the help of data obtained during driving tests done with test vehicles. As a testing cars were choosen 3 Hyundais Kona with different powertrain types, classic internal combustion engine, a hybrid and a purely electric. Performed tests were the so-called moose test, acceleration, deceleration and it was measured center of gravity for all vehicles too. From the data obtained during individual tests, it was subsequently assessed the influence of the vehicle powertrain type on its driving dynamics.

Predicting spark-ignition engine emissions
Jirout, Petr ; Böhm, Michael (referee) ; Štětina, Josef (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the possibility of predicting emissions of SI engines. The aim was to create an algorithm for predicting unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide, based on ECU signals. The algorithm is based on practical experiments with SI engines. In the summary, the issues and the possible use of the created algorithm following the incorporation of EU7 are outlined.

Valvetrain mechanism of a four-cylinder in-line gasoline aircraft engine
Holeňa, Vít ; Kučera, Pavel (referee) ; Píštěk, Václav (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on the analysis and design of a valvetrain for an aircraft piston engine. Using the GT Suite simulation tool, the aim is to construct a dynamic model of the valvetrain, make corresponding calculations as well as some design modifications. The thesis begins with the introduction to aircraft engines and valvetrain in general. In the following chapters, a more detailed introduction to cam profiles as well as related topics is presented. In the practical part of the thesis, an analysis of contemporary design is conducted, followed by a proposed design of new cam profiles. A single-valve model as well as a model containing all valves is presented, taking the gas pressure in the cylinder into consideration. The FEM Ansys Workbench was used for further calculations. The conclusion of the thesis summarizes designed variants, and further possible steps are outlined.

Transmissions of Passenger Cars with Hybrid Drive
Vaňourek, Jakub ; Řehák, Kamil (referee) ; Prokop, Aleš (advisor)
This thesis deals with transmission systems of passenger cars with a hybrid drive. The main reason for choosing this topic was its topicality. With increasingly strict emission standards, hybrid cars are coming to the fore. The first part of the thesis deals with the division of hybrid drives into individual categories according to the selected criteria. An example of a specific solution is then given for the individual categories and its construction, functionality and its advantages and disadvantages compared to cars with an internal combustion engine are described. In the following chapters, more complex hybrid systems are described in more detail in connection with construction and functionality. The conclusion is dedicated to evaluating the mentioned hybrid systems and outlining their potential use in the future.

Operation of electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles and vehicles with an internal combustion engine
Herzog, Radim ; Píštěk, Václav (referee) ; Kučera, Ondřej (advisor)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the comparison of different propulsion concepts and their consumption, efficiency, and amount of emissions produced during operation. Although electric vehicles do not produce any local emissions, it is necessary to consider that emissions are generated during the production of electricity in power plants. The main part of the thesis introduces the functional principles of individual propulsion systems. Furthermore, it describes the formation of exhaust gas emissions in combustion engines and outlines their limits. Subsequently, the amount of emissions produced by a power plant for the operation of a specific example of an electric vehicle and a hybrid vehicle is calculated. Finally, a comparison of emissions production from representative examples of each propulsion system is illustrated.
