Fleet Configuration

CanFlow simulates a diverse fleet of 25+ unique Indian Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicle models, each with multiple instances and unique wear characteristics.

Fleet Structure

The fleet is generated based on the list of models in config/fleet_config.yaml. For every model, multiple persistent instances are created.

  • Instances per Model: Configured via INSTANCES_PER_MODEL in .env.
  • Naming Convention: MODEL_INITIALS-INDEX (e.g., MSS-001 for Maruti Suzuki Swift instance 1, TA-005 for Tata Ace instance 5).

Vehicle Categories

1. Passenger Vehicles

  • Major Brands: Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors, Hyundai, Mahindra, Toyota, Kia.
  • Characteristics: Higher idle RPM (850), higher top speed (180 km/h), and standard 12V electrical systems (14.2V baseline).

2. Commercial Vehicles

  • Major Brands: Tata Motors, Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, Force, Eicher.
  • Characteristics: Lower idle RPM (650), restricted top speed (100 km/h), and heavy-duty 24V electrical systems (26.5V baseline).

Sensor Profiles & Realism

Metric Passenger Commercial
Idle RPM 850 650
Max RPM 6500 4000
Max Speed 180 km/h 100 km/h
Coolant Temp 90°C 92°C
System Voltage 14.2V 26.5V

Wear Factor

Every specific vehicle instance is assigned a unique Wear Factor (between 0.95 and 1.15) upon initialization. This factor permanently offsets the vehicle's sensor baselines (RPM, Temperature, MAF) to simulate: - Vehicle Age: Older vehicles might run slightly hotter or have higher idle vibrations. - Manufacturing Variance: No two vehicles perform identically in the real world.

Physical Constraints

The simulation enforces strict physical bounds at the sensor level (simulator/sensors.py) to ensure data quality: - Speed/RPM: Hard-clamped at 0 (no negative values). - Throttle: Clamped between 0-100%. - Battery: Hard floor at 10.5V.
