Hybrid Technology in the LMP1 Porsche 919 Hybrid
With the 919 Hybrid, Porsche has developed a new field of
technology at racing speed. For the “Mission E”, a fully
electric road-going concept sports car unveiled in 2015, the
designers adopted the 800-volt technology from the prototype
racer. Porsche has exhausted all possibilities in designing the
two-time 24 Hours of Le Mans winner – especially in terms of
the drive concept. It consists of a two-liter, V4 turbocharged
gasoline engine – the most efficient combustion motor that
Porsche has built up to now – and two different energy
recovery systems.
During braking, a generator at the front-axle converts the
car’s kinetic energy into electrical energy. In the split exhaust
system, one turbine drives the turbocharger while another
converts surplus energy into electrical energy. The braking
energy contributes 60 percent, with the remaining 40 percent
is produced from exhaust gas. The recuperated electrical
energy is stored temporarily in a lithium-ion battery and feeds
an electric motor “on demand,” meaning, the driver can
accelerate and call up the energy at the press of a button. In
accordance with the latest regulation changes, the power from
the combustion engine is just under 500 hp and the output
from the electric motor is well over 400 hp.
The use and interplay of these two energy sources require a
sophisticated strategy. In every braking phase, energy is
recuperated. On the Nürburgring’s 3.2-mile Grand Prix circuit,
this happens 17 times per lap, before every corner. The
amount of recovered energy depends on the severity of the
braking maneuver, or in other words, the speed at which the
driver arrives at the corner and how tight it is.
Braking and recuperation last until the apex of every corner,
the driver then accelerates again. In this moment, the aim is to
utilize as much energy as possible. Therefore, the driver steps
on the throttle using fuel energy, and also “boost” electrical
energy from the battery.
While the combustion engine drives the rear-axle, the electric
motor takes care of the front-axle. The 919 catapults out of the
corner without any loss of traction using all-wheel drive – and
in the process recuperates energy again because on the
straights, the extra turbine in the exhaust tract is hard at work.
At consistently high engine speeds, the pressure in the
exhaust system increases rapidly and drives the second
turbine which is connected directly to an electric generator.
Both energy sources, however, are limited by the regulations:
a driver may not use more than 1.8-liters of fuel per lap and no
more than 1.3 kilowatt hours (4.68 megajoules) of electricity.
He must calculate this carefully so that at the end of the lap he
has used exactly this amount – no more, no less. He who
uses more is penalized. He who uses less, loses
performance. It is important to stop “boosting” and lift off the
throttle at exactly the right moment.
Converted to the 8.469-mile lap of Le Mans, which is the scale
model for the regulations, the amount of electrical energy
allowed is 2.22 kilowatt hours. This corresponds to eight
megajoules – and that is the highest energy class stipulated in
the regulations. In 2015, Porsche was the first and only
manufacturer that dared to push the limits so far. In 2016,
Toyota is also competing in the eight megajoule class. Audi
uses six megajoules. The WEC regulations almost completely
balance these differences.

Porsche Engineers Give Cars a Sound Check
To make sure every Porsche truly sounds like a Porsche,
acoustics experts compose the right melodies. From the boxer
engines of today to the electric cars of tomorrow, Porsche
experts in Weissach create individual sound concepts.
A soloist extraordinaire enters the stage. A hush of silence fills
the air, as the audience hardly dares to breathe. Suddenly the
voice is heard, its virtuoso quality immediately evident with
one coloratura, then another, while a layer of tension builds in
the quiet bass tones. A crescendo sets in a few bars later as
the voice accelerates through nearly every musical pitch, from
bass and tenor to soprano. The finale erupts in an unbridled
furioso, and all who hear it are left with goose bumps. Then
the recording stops, and Dr. Bernhard Pfäfflin smiles.
“Marvelous, isn’t it?”
That short soundtrack of a 911 solo displays a number of
qualities that every Porsche has to have. First of all, the sound
is not one-dimensional, but instead covers a broad range of
frequencies. This attribute distinguishes a Porsche from a
humming American or a high-strung Italian. Second, both the
sound and the volume vary with the load—that is, with the
throttle. “This gives the driver an additional point of
orientation,” explains Pfäfflin, 49, who is the head of
development for vibrational technology and acoustics. In other
words, he is in charge of the Porsche sound.
Each model should have a sound that matches its character.
A GT3 has to rock, that’s for sure. Another important criterion,
according to Pfäfflin, is that “the car has to sound like its
output.” No synthetic pop music, therefore, but real tones from
genuine instruments. Nevertheless, the sound bodies are
mixed in such a way that a harmonious pattern emerges for
every style of driving. In order to achieve this, Pfäfflin doesn’t
wait until the automotive engineers and engine developers
build the first prototypes. The quest for good sound begins
much earlier.
While both the powertrain and the car are still in the digital
creation process, acoustics specialist Bernd Müller is already
calculating countless variants of exhaust systems and
mufflers—or, to be precise, the effects of different combinations
on the sound of the car. Müller is responsible for the gas
exchange acoustics at Porsche, and he generates hundreds
of sound files. “This lets you hear a car before it actually
exists as a physical prototype,” he says, describing the
wonders of digitization. Working together with other
experienced colleagues, he distills three or four variants from
the multitude of possibilities.
