The transition from combustion engines to electric propulsion is accelerating in every coordinate of the globe. The engineers had strived hard to augment the engine performance for more than eight decades, and a similar challenge had emerged again for electric vehicles. To analyze the performance of the engine, the vector engine operating point (EOP) is defined, which is common industry practice, and the performance vector electric vehicle motor operating point (EVMOP) is not explored in the existing literature. In an analogous sense, electric vehicles are embedded with three primary components, e.g., Battery, Inverter, Motor, and in this article, the EVMOP is defined using the parameters [motor torque, motor speed, motor current]. As a second aspect of this research, deep learning models are developed to predict the EVMOP by mapping the parameters representing the dynamic state of the system in real-time.

The automotive industry widely accepted the launch of electric vehicles in the global market, resulting in the emergence of many new areas, including battery health, inverter design, and motor dynamics. Maintaining the desired thermal stress is required to achieve augmented performance along with the optimal design of these components. The HVAC system controls the coolant and refrigerant fluid pressures to maintain the temperatures of [Battery, Inverter, Motor] in a definite range. However, identifying the prominent factors affecting the thermal stress of electric vehicle components and their effect on temperature variation was not investigated in real-time. Therefore, this article defines the vector electric vehicle thermal operating point (EVTHOP) as the first step with three elements [instantaneous battery temperature, instantaneous inverter temperature, instantaneous stator temperature].
