Technical Presentation
Next-generation high speed drives to boost hybrid and electric powertrains
On Tuesday, Feb. 22, Garrett will be present in Berlin at the Advanced E-Motor Technology event with a technical presentation.
Saphir Faid, Senior Engineering Director, Electrification Center of Excellence, will illustrate how Garrett engineers applied cutting-edge technology to develop ultra-high-speed electric drives aimed at mass production. Among these, he will talk about how high-performance turbomachinery – which originated in aerospace – is applied to enhance the performance of fuel cell systems, how hybrid technology originated in Formula 1™ racing made its way to passenger cars, and much more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS OF THE PRESENTATION
- Design and control of ultra-high-speed electric drives
- Electric boosting technology from the tracks of Formula 1™ to the streets
- High-performance compressors to enhance the performance of fuel cell systems
TECHNOLOGY HIGHLIGHTS
Our Award-Winning E-Turbo Technology
The growing trends toward hybridization open up possibilities to transfer electric boosting technology from racetrack to road. Garrett is pioneering E-Turbo technology to deliver superior performance, fuel economy and emissions, by integrating state-of-the-art, ultra-high-speed electric motors and power electronics into its turbocharger product families.
Our Two-Stage Electric Compressor for Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles
Garrett’s Two-Stage compressor enables automakers to optimize electric powertrain potential by boosting hydrogen fuel cell stacks to higher pressures and flows within a downsized package that fits inside regular vehicles. Advanced bearing and electrical system designs increase performance, reduce the size, weight, and noise, and help make the vision of zero-emissions vehicles a reality.
