Abstract
As hybrid vehicles are growing more popular, new challenges for manufacturers arise to achieve good NVH. This master thesis analyzes an electric motor installation at the rear axle on the Volvo V60 Plug-in Hybrid with the goal to lower the noise level in the vehicle compartment. Measurements are combined with CAE-analyses to understand the problem areas and the behavior of the existing installation. Five concept layouts were generated and evaluated were one showed a lower noise level. This layout was further designed with regard to space limitations on a concept level which could be implemented as a proof-of-concept in an existing vehicle.
