Virtual model of EJC-90 load haul machine - Traditional diesel engine version of the machine
Simulated vs. measured results The virtual model of original loader EJC-90 The mechanics and hydraulics (+ working environment) of traditional dieselpowered load haul machine (EJC-90) is modeled with multibody dynamics software by Mevea. Work hydraulics model used in simulations Transmission model used in simulations
Simulated vs. measured results Working environment and work cycle 2300 kg rock load is taken from the bottom of the mine, brought back up and unloaded, once. This is virtual replica of the real working environment during measurements and measured work cycle. Measurements were done earlier by Aalto University. 1. Start / 4. End 3.Unloading 2. Loading

Simulated vs. measured results Hydraulic motor power Simulated hydraulic motor powers correspond well to measured ones
Simulated vs. measured results Hydraulic pump power Simulated hydraulic pump powers correspond well to measured ones
Simulated vs. measured results Diesel engine rotational speed, torque and power Fuel consumption of the work cycle is evaluated by diesel engine fuel consumption chart. Simulated diesel engine values correspond well to measured ones.
Simulated vs. measured results - EJC-90 diesel engine model Fuel consumption Measured Simulated Difference Energy demand from diesel engine E D [MJ] 22.9 21 8 % Fuel consumption of work cycle [l] 2 1.9 5 % Average fuel consumption [l/h] 14.4 13.7 5 % Simulated fuel consumption corresponds well to measured fuel consumption. The difference is only 5 %.
Simulated vs. measured results - EJC-90 diesel engine model Conclusions The models and methods, including real-time virtual model of the mobile working machine and the working environment were verified by measurement results in the case of a loud haul machine. One of the main targets, fuel consumption, was in the accuracy range of 95% between simulated and measured results. The result is better than expected. The verified methods form the basis on other cases to be modeled during the Tubridi-project and in the future. One of the other cases is hybrid version of the load haul machine (Tubridi test platform).

Virtual simulation test bench gives answers to: What is the drive cycle like of this machine? What size of battery or electric motor should I choose? How much does the productivity increase by hybridisation? How many kg or m 3 is moved in an hour? How much fuel is saved by the hybridisation? How does it feel to drive the hybrid machine? that is not yet even manufactured as a prototype. Is the usability improved by hybridisation? Energy efficiency Productivity Usability Control systems
Virtual simulation test bench can be used for Customer validation Virtual validation First reference tests of prototypes Performance analysis Energy efficiency analysis Control software development Bug fixing Testing of individual components Testing of systems Virtual prototyping Combining digital twin and hardware Early and later stages of development
